In spite of how he's dressed, he ain't nobody's fool.
Like all 3DS focused Directs, I'll keep my candle lit for any word on the Dragon Quest 7 remake in the US. But alas, it's a fools errand. I'm not sure VI sold well enough, or not. Whatever the case may be.

7 is pretty niche. I think there's more hope for the Dragon Quest Monster remakes over there.

Nintendo stopped localising the DQ games after DQM Joker 2 flopped, so I'm not so sure about that. (It probably would have done a lot better if they had've localised Joker 2 Professional which had been out for a little while before the announcement, but that's Nintendo for ya.)

The DQM Joker series was grindy as hell. If that's what the later ones are like I don't mind that they stopped localizing them honestly.

Likewise I'll continue to hope for a localisation of that Chibi Robo eShop game and then "it will be available on the eShop, right now".

A man can dream.

That would be the best possible outcome.

Or they finally give us Miiverse, which would make Swapnote useless anyway...

For just about any FPS made in the last decade, 200ms is considered unplayable for you, and detrimental to others. 400ms is just absurd. You wouldn't even want to play an RTS with that kind of control delay. Platformers, fighting games, all would be right out.

I usually play with 160-180 because that is the best ping I can get in my area :smith:

Anyone who doesn't wanna wait till Black Friday, it looks like Amazon's 3ds XLs are being sold at $180 than the usual $200.

Looking forward to playing that demo. I was already sold on the game but this should be a good way to kill some time. :)

Until you realise it has 3 uses because they're still limiting demos for no good reason whatsoever.

Can't watch the stream since I'm at work but if they are unifying accounts does that mean games purchased will finally be account bound instead of system bound?

Miiverse and combined account/balances on WiiU and 3DS eShop are huge. I know it's a case of "finally!", but it's really one of the major complaints about the 3DS.

Wii U purchases are system bound despite the fact so probably not

It'll hopefully at least make things better for 3DS owners who lose their systems, if they have a NNID account set up, and their purchase history is tied to it.
