I hate the Theatrhythm art style so much.

Never. I imported it though. It's cute.
It better come here. I bought both the FF Theathrythm games. And I'll seriously bomb SE headquarters if we don't get this, but do get the Kingdom Hearts one in development.
Be thankful they're even bothering with VII and VIII.
>>321028382
At least with 7 and 8, I had slightly inferior versions to fall back on
I don't have another localized version of Theatrhythm DQ to play
>>321028382
>be thankful
That they're finally releasing games we should have gotten anyway? Thankful isn't the right word. More like 'fucking finally you idiots'.
The rest of the games should be released as well. Dragon Quest is still one of the top 5 selling JRPG series in the west. Even without any support. If we can get every SMT and Altier game, which sell less than 300,000 copies, it should be a no brainer for SE to release all the DQ games which regularly break 500,000 units sold. With no marketing.
>>321028382
They're both going to bomb hard. Piracy has already become common practice for the 3ds.
>>321027042
If I'm being honest, there's only like six or so DQ pieces I like enough to play a rhythm game for. If we're going to get DQ spinoffs, I'd rather get the Rocket Slime sequels.
>>321028803
Yes, I'm worried they waited too long bringing VII over and it will affect sales. I bet SE would love having more ammo to claim DQ isn't viable in the west.

Piracy was 10x more rampant on the original DS. And the DS games sold well. So much so, it sold out of all the copies SquareEnix printed and started selling online for $80+ each.
This is why it is so stupid that they ignored the 3DS games for 4 years. And only after a massive change in management in SquareEnix are they finally waking up. But it may be too late now. Since the 3DS only has 1-2 years left before a new system is released. I wish they'd just release all the overlooked DQ games, one every 3-6 months. Setting up for Dragon Quest XI sometime in early 2017.

Dragon Quest is the only series I can think of where I like every single song. Even playing Theathrythm FF, I groan every time a FFX or XII song comes up.
I want Theathrytm Dragon Quest because it will be the one game where I know I will like every song. As well as getting a lot more people into Kochi Sugiyama's excellent music and the DQ series as a whole. Even if the game only sells 300k units like FF Theathrythm did, a lot of those people will be new to the DQ series. And may buy the other games after playing it.
Spin offs are basically marketing put into a game. This is why the spin offs are just as important as the main series games.
>>321029056
Slime Mori Mori 3 flopped in Japan so that not coming over is understandable. I still want Monsters 1 and 2 remakes.
>>321028803
Bullshit. 3DS piracy is way too obscure and hard for the average fucker.
Even on /v/ tons of people updated past 9.2.
On the DS it was the easiest shit and didnt even cost much.
>>321027042
It'll be censored.
>>321029883
What are they going to do, censor Theatrhythm Jessica's cleavage?
>>321027042
>blatant copy of final fantasy rhythm
You dragon quest people are funny
FF is better.
>>321029592
Slime no Mori Mori 3 sold as much as Slime 1 and 2 did. It didn't flop. They expected only about 300k sales.
Just like Dragon Quest X wasn't a flop for 'only' selling 1 million copies. That was expected. And it turned around and became the most played and profitable MMO in Japan. Beating FFXI and XIV.

>trying this hard to start an argument
Someone is mad that people keep pointing out FF followed Dragon Quest I and II.
>>321030152
>Slime no Mori Mori 3 sold as much as Slime 1 and 2 did.
It sold around 130k according to media create, while the first two games sold over 300k.

>first=funny
FF rythym shit came out like a year ago, what's this, now we have dragon quest. It's just a shittier franchise
>>321029801
>On the DS it was the easiest shit and didnt even cost much.
I miss the wonderful days of rampant DS and PSP piracy. There are so many DS games I would have never gotten if it weren't for piracy.
>>321030260
To be fair, it also came out in the first year of the 3DS. While the others came out at the peak of the GBA/DS. Its like claiming Kirby Canvas Curse sold bad by comparing it to Kirby Super Star Remake. One came out 8 months after the DS released and the other came out at the height of the DS.
