Apparently Dragon Quest 11 is being announced tomorrow. With the DS and 3DS remakes, along with 10 being on Wii and Wii U (all in Japan), what are the odds the Wii U or 3DS will get 11? Not that it matters since it won't get localized anyway.

Dragon Quest 8 was the last core game to come to the U.S. wasn't it? It seems like there's no plans to ever bring the core series back to the U.S.

9 was the last in the core series, I think, and that was DS exclusive. Plus there's the VII and VIII 3DS remakes that *may* be coming West.

Sony is Square's target BigMcLargeHuge RPG demographic, if Dragon Quest re-releases are happening it's probably going to wind up being on a Sony system.

1-3 need major overhauls, like way more work than what 7 or 8 required.

I also enjoyed Star Fox Adventures, though I can't remember any other game I've ever played where I needed to dive for the remote to hit the mute button out of sheer embarrassment. But it was a solid Zelda clone and there simply aren't that many out there so I liked it quite a bit.

If they're going to put a Star Fox character in, they need to quit loving around and put the best character in.

Did the SNES controller kinda suck? The d-pad is one of those ones where it's all really one big button that rocks in the direction you're pressing and the ABYX ones feel a bit...weird? It's not a big deal at all, but it doesn't feel as defined as I thought it would. Are there dope 3rd party ones?

You have seriously never used an NES/SNES styled D-pad? It was the original and is the standard all others were judged by, and the reason other d-pads sucked was that Nintendo defended its patent fiercely. The only other design that can claim to be as good was the Sega Saturn D-pad (The one from the japanese pads, not the lovely american ones that were different for no reason.), and even then I'd say the Nintendo one is better for platforming while the Sega one is better for fighting games.

I have never heard anything but praise for the SNES controller. You sure you have an original? There's a lot of knock-offs floating around that are pieces of poo poo.

Yeah, I got it from here on the Mart as part of the modded SNES bundle. I had an SNES growing up but I have no memory of the controller. I like the feel of the controller and it works well, but it's one of those things where "it'd be better if it did this this way" to make itself better than it is.

No, it definitely wouldn't be Lana, since there are other characters in HW who have appeared several times in the mainline Zelda series, and would be closer to the front of the line.

It would be like if Sakurai had put Waluigi in Melee and left out Peach.

I was referring to characters created for HW (basically Lana and Cia), not just Zelda characters in general.

I was testing Ganbare Goemon 2 a while ago, the controller has lasted the test of time. Kind of made me wish the Club Nintendo Wii ver was released in the States.

I do use this 3rd Party one from time to time. Had one as a kid. I looked so cool that I brought I new one when I brought another SNES.

If you release a set of anything, at least three people will collect them and one of them will actively fight the other two to complete their own set.
