Word hits that North American gamers can get their Dragon Quest fix come February 26th, when Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors releases to hungry fans. And, Dragon Quest fans are their own kind of breed of hungry fans, eagerly clawing and destroying anything in their path to that game. We suggest you stay locked indoors when that day comes.For any of you who might have forgotten exactly what the game is like, check out some videos and screens for the game. And, care to comment on whether you're looking forward to this or not? Are you hoping for a more traditional Dragon Quest game on the Wii sometime in the future?

I am looking forward to it, but I really do want a real DQ game out on the wii. At the end of the killing slimes is still killing slimes.

Yeah, I think this is really missing the adventure aspect. They missed a big opportunity here. The action oriented gameplay looks like it could be modestly fun, but the great part about RPGs is the character building and adventure.

I am a Dragon Quest fan. I haven't played for a while, since I only got back to gaming with the Wii (thanks big N). But I'm so into Dragon Quest that I even thought about playing it in Japanese (import) just to get my fix.
But I'll hold out because hopefully the story will be worth it.
Feb. 26th.... you are oh so far away.

With so many Mysterious Dungeon-style games coming out, I'm hoping they'll decide to release and localize DQ Yangus for the Wii. Looks like it's got no chance of coming to the US on the PS2, but the Wii seems to be the unofficial console of second chance games lately...

I am looking forward to this...
It's the one of the few games I see finally using the Wii's controls correctly and naturally... an actual game that uses the controls in an interesting way in a genre that usually begs for tradition.
...which is actually what I've been waiting for in the Wii.
I've been waiting for it since I've heard of it.
I hope this inspires the rest to try to keep this creativity up.
(Then again, that's what I always say about great Wii games... nothing yet, but still hoping)
