DS’s Dragon Quest: Dragon Quest IX!

I can’t wait for this to come out, I can finally get back into the series. I’ve missed a couple DQs, sadly.

A slice of 1UP’s article:

Dragon Quest and DS — seems like a natural match, right? After all, Square Enix’s RPG franchise has been the biggest thing going in Japan for two whole decades, and Nintendo’s double-decker portable sells twice the competition’s numbers (or more) these days. And the two have already collided in the form of the excellent (but woefully underappreciated) Rocket Slime, with Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker due in just a few weeks.

Wii’s Mercury Meltdown!

I was enthralled to hear this news. I loved the original on the PSP, one of the only games I liked on it, and I called this. When I saw them releasing other versions of Mercury, I knew it was going to go to the Wii.

“We are thrilled to bring Mercury Meltdown to this ground-breaking game console that truly reinvents the gaming experience,” said Paul Robinson, president of Ignition Entertainment. “The Wii Remote is a true compliment to the Mercury series as the original game design was intended for a tilt controller. Now gamers can fully interact with the Mercury blob, navigating through the labs with precision and unprecedented speed.”

In Mercury Meltdown Revolution, players guide a mercury blob around futuristic environments complete with moving machinery, test tubes, trap switches, spikes, rotating walkways, dangerous ledges, and other obstacles, in order to reach an end-level goal. The Wii build of the title is set to feature more than 150 levels, hidden labs, updated “state of the art blog physics,” and a variety of bonuses. The game is being created by Ignition Banbury out of Europe.
