I know, I know. The Wii is tearing up sales charts left and right. The Japanese love the Wii -- fact. Which coincides perfectly with the fact that the Japanese love Dragon Quest. So it only makes sense that Dragon Quest goes to Wii, right? Right. But don't you remember the first time you played Dragon Quest 8? Gorgeous wasn't it? Dripping with color and vibrant scenery, it was beyond a doubt the most beautiful cel-shaded title at that point, rivaled possibly only by Wind Waker. That was on PS2. The Wii is roughly twice as possible as that, so we can expect something beautiful and dazzling again, right? Wrong. The bar has been set higher, now. While the Wii may be able to do it justice, I know I, personally, was holding out hope that 360 would be able to grab hold of it. I know, crazy right? Especially after DQ 9 went to DS. But I still had that sliver of hope deep within me. Hell, even PS3. Now my Economics-class daydreams of slaying Slimes in wonderful high-definition glory will have been in vain. A game that would cripple even my love for Vesperia.. I know. I'm a graphics-whore... Oh well. The Wii is still a good choice for the fact that it has the potential to get such an awesome franchise into lots of hands and that's the most important thing. What do you think about this announcement? Would you have rathered it go to a different console?

Just be glad it isn't STILL on the PS2.
The game will look fantastic, but more importantly should be a great traditional RPG, which is far more important ya?
Also- why would DQ require friend codes?
Admirable sir.
Perri. My point was maximization. Which the Wii won't be able to do. I want to be able to feel that same way I did when I hit the power on my PS2. But I won't, because of the games I've played on 360, there is no way the Wii will be able to dazzle me the same.
will it deter you from buying or playing it?
Or, should I say, yes, I wished for it to be a visual feast. For someone who hasn't played it, yourself (no offense, many haven't) , I don't think you'll be able to sympathize with how I feel. But no, it won't deter me from playing it because as is with all games, the most important thing is the gameplay.
And as I said before, no blame on Squenix because the most important thing is getting it into as many hands as possible.
