Square Enix should pay off the recent success of Dragon Quest with a remaster of Dragon Quest 8, one of the franchise's most iconic titles.
Amazon has discounted the digital versions of The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds to $14.99, Luigi's Mansion to $23.99 and more.
Link between worlds is a steal at that price. Would have grabbed DQ as well, but just grabbed at locally for dirt cheap, luckily.
Paul writes: "As much fun as it would be to play A Link To The Past, there is no way that Nintendo would allow that to be remade for Microsoft’s black box, so even though it had a massive effect on me as a younger man, it won't appear in this list. But other than that, here, in no particular order, are the five RPGs that I'd like to see remade that don't include the words "Final" or "Fantasy"."
When I read the headlink I was sure about Chrono Trigger....what a game?? Secret of Mana was epic too!! The rest I have not played yet.
Dragon Quest VIII does not need to be remade. If anything, I would take a HD remaster of the game, but it doesn't need a remake.
I would like to see Lands of Lore: Throne of Chaos and Stonekeep remade. They were pretty good back in the 90s but I dunno if the game play would hold up today, they would probably have to get rid of the old grid movement system.
The stage is once again set for Dragon Quest to make a big impression on a fresh Western audience. Will this be the series' breakout moment? Will Square Enix see a massive adoption movement akin to Capcom's recent Western success with Monster Hunter: World? Dragon Quest XI looks great, it sounds good, it's getting a Steam release alongside its console release, and the success of another turn-based RPG—Persona 5—proves North America isn't as allergic to "old fashioned" JRPG systems as some people initially thought. If Dragon Quest is going to shine on these shores, it's now or never.
It’s hard for this series to catch on big in western markets because of its various very traditional mechanics.
I’m not even talking about it being turn based. Dragon Quest does many things cuz of tradition that wouldn’t set well with any other franchise
There’s been so many attempts to make Dragon Quest a big name in western markets, I’d be amazed if this game somehow pulled it off
Absolutely
i dont know why Square didn tput the Remaster for the 3ds, on the ps4. its like they dont want money haha
Yes.
Hell yes! Dragon Quest VIII is sooo damn good!
Well..just every PS2 era j-rpg should have or get a remaster.
Or maybe a remake
