Level-5 Aims for Dragon Quest IX in 2008

Square Enix may be unwilling to commit to a final release date for Dragon Quest IX, but developer Level-5's president may have just done the deed himself. Akihiro Hino said that his goal for 2008 is to finish work on White Knight Chronicles, Inazuma Eleven, the third Professor Layton game, and Dragon Quest IX.

Not at all from the article:
"Akihiro Hino said that his goal for 2008 is to finish work on White Knight Chronicles, Inazuma Eleven, the third Professor Layton game, and Dragon Quest IX."

Hopefully by the time they finish the 3rd Prof. Layton they will bring the 2nd to the states. 1st one is awesome so far!

I was speed reading and didn't notice it was the first game they listed.

It's really been a while though. I expect they need to finish up the DS game as it won't take long. but they are adding more projects and putting WKS to the side O.O

ew no. Level-5 stay independent!

I don't see why not. Sony has been pretty good with the studios they acquire.

Polyphony Digital is still perfecting Gran Turismo. SCE Japan Studio is still helping to publish many titles developed in Japan. We are looking forward to Team ICO's next big release. The list goes on to include Naughty Dog, Guerilla Games (which has never stopped improving), and the Santa Monica studio.

I don't remember them ever closing one of their studios down or removing its talents after acquisition (just look at the sequels for Pursuit Force and Motorstorm). They should definitely consider acquiring Level 5 and maybe Insomniac.

Top 10 3DS Games You Should Download Before They're Gone Forever From The Nintendo eShop

Daav from NoobFeed writes - Nintendo has announced that both the 3DS and Wii U eShops are on the way out. Though the company preempts the news by saying that downloads will still work "for the foreseeable future," that message also implies that your games will disappear at some point. We've enabled consumption at our fingertips, which companies have gladly used to erode the terms of game ownership. As always, convenience comes at a much higher cost down the road and, well, that time has come

I wish the majority of the previous mainline Dragon Quest games were readily available on modern platforms. 3DS is the only system that fits that criteria but this should be expanded upon
