Re: Dragon Quest XII Could Shape The Next "10 To 20 Years" Of The Series

Sirloto

I've enjoyed DQ so far. I'm on 7 right now on the DS. I started with the DQ 1 on the GBC, and I played the remakes on the Apple Store (2 to 6).

Maybe the combat will be like an active time battle like Chrono Trigger? That would add some strategy. It just feels like you can wipe out enemies easily with one powerful attack in regular combat. I agree the turn based combat would be good to keep- really couldn't imagine the series without it.

Yuji Horii for awhile has wanted changes to the combat, as far back as 9. 10, remember, which hopefully the offline version is coming to the Switch in 2022 was a MMORPG.

Re: Roundup: Here's What Was Revealed In Nintendo Direct E3 2021

I like seeing Metroid Dread, Advance Wars Re-boot Camp, and the Game and Watch Legend of Zelda was interesting.

Otherwise- disappointed that a new Switch model was not announced, no Metroid Prime Trilogy announced, or any re-releases of Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, Wind Waker, and Twlight Princess.

Re: Poll: What's The Best Dragon Quest Game?

Sirloto

I have only experience on the following games...

I (GBC)- Good short RPG.
II (Mobile)- Good, like having a party. Didn't see the crushing difficulty if you played the Nintendo version. Final Boss was tough.
III (Mobile)- I liked the class system but it's a bit dated. Final Boss was tough. I could not experience the T'nT Boards in Mobile unfortunately.
IV (Mobile)- I liked the chapter system but HATED the casino!
V (Mobile)- Great game, good writing.
VI (Mobile)- Good game except the story wanders too much. Class System is addictive.

Next I will be playing 7 on the 3DS, and hopefully 8 and 9 on Switch! If not, I will play those games on the 3DS (8)and DS (9). 11 I will probably play on the PC.

Re: Nintendo eShop Growth Continues With Massive Increase To Digital Sales

Sirloto

For the Switch- I buy physical if I know a game file is very large.

Digital is great- it's how I have been able to experience Dragon Quest games on IOS (I have an Ipad), been able to download a lot of classic games to my 3DS, and already have a few collection classic games on my Switch Lite.

I just wish we had more retro collections- retro game prices are absurd right now.

One day with my physical cartridges, I want to create an emulation library.

Re: Round Up: Everything Announced In The February 2021 Nintendo Direct

Sirloto

I'm excited for Skyward Sword since I have never played it. I agree charging 60 dollars for it is a bit much.

Otherwise: meh.

Where's the Dragon Quest love? The Switch really needs 4 to 9. They are quality games. Glad I have Ipad to play 4, 5, 6, and 8, and a DS to play 7 and 9.

My dream to play Terranigma legally will have to wait- I'm noticing Square just is focusing on Mana and the SaGa series right now.

Agreed that Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross is overdue!

Re: Reminder: Nintendo Switch Online Gets Four New SNES And NES Games Today

Sirloto

Its never going to happen but I would love to see:

Act Raiser
Soul Blazer
Illusion of Gaia
Terranigma
Earthbound
Earthbound Beginnings

I can see why Square Enix would hesitate to put these games on the service, they make more money with selling applications to Nintendo, Apple, Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, etc etc.

Nintendo should at least bundle Earthbound Beginnings, Earthbound, and Mother 3.

Oh, and I'd love to see games like Looney Tunes B-ball on the service, but again...copyright issues.

Re: Trials Of Mana Has Surpassed One Million Sales Worldwide

Sirloto

Haven't it tried it yet on the collection. Heard it's fantastic.

Square Enix, I believe, has rights to these games:

7th Saga
Soul Blazer
Illusion of Gaia
Terranigma
Act Raiser
Secret of Evermore
Final Fantasy Tactics Advance

I'd love to see these games on the Switch!

Re: Nintendo Expands Its Switch Online SNES And NES Service With Four More Titles

Sirloto

I've seen in the comments about having Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy, and Dragon Quest in the Switch Online Service.

That isn't going to happen- Square does its business by offering apps of those games (like on Ipad/Iphone/Android), and some of the are starting to show up on the Switch store.

I agree I'd like to see Super Mario RPG and Earthbound added to the service, those titles are well overdue.

It would be nice to see Soul Blazer, Act Raiser, Illusion of Gaia, and Terranigma, and even 7th Saga. That would make me want to get the service.
