任天堂有意協助勇鬥系列在北美的推廣銷售

Nintendo to help promote Dragon Quest in North America, says Iwata

“With the release of Dragon Quest IX, there are two things I’d like to make reality.
The first is to build a thriving Japanese game market together with Dragon Quest that rivals the West’s.

The second is to form a strong tag team to promote Dragon Quest overseas.

At Nintendo, we were able to popularize the Brain Age series overseas, which was said to be unmarketable.

I want to increase the number of people worldwide that understand the appeal of Dragon Quest, which represents all Japanese gaming culture…even if that only turns out to be a single person.

I’m looking forward to working together with Mr. Horii and Square Enix.” - Satoru Iwata

隨著勇鬥九發售日已定。我想表達兩件事情，首先就是與勇者鬥惡龍一起

努力讓日本遊戲市場日漸茁壯到可以與西方市場匹敵

再來就是成立一個強而有力的品牌團隊，來推廣海外勇者鬥惡龍系列作

在任天堂方面，腦力訓練原本這系列是被看衰不會有市場的，而我們竟然

也能讓腦力訓練在海外如此受歡迎

我想要擴大了解勇鬥的魅力的全世界人口，勇鬥所代表的就是全日本的

遊戲文化 …即使結果最後只有一個人懂得勇鬥的魅力也無妨

我期待與Square Enix及和田社長的合作關係

09年 各大遊戲製作人訪談

Gemaga had a developer roundup where they talked to some of the big names in Japan. Check out what the devs had to say…
Inafune (Capcom) :- never, ever wants to create a game like Brain Training.- Inafune accurately predicted what platform would take the console wars, but had no idea the DS would sell so much “Sorry (for doubting you), Mr. Nintendo ”
Kawazu (Square-Enix) :
- possible SaGa related surprise for the 20th anniversary of the series
Yoshizumi (Namco):
- expect great battle innovations from Tales of ________ “Please look forward to it”
Terada (Super Robot War’s producer):
- Team may “reposition their development” in the second half of 2009…
Hino (Level 5):
- DQIX is entering the final preparation stage- multiplayer aspects will be unique, and offer something outside of the traditional online RPG- ‘Ni no Kuni’ still due out (in Japan) during 2009
Sugiyama (Koei) :
- Hopes Wii owners will like Sengoku Musou 3-
- very impressed by Smash Bros Brawl

稲船 敬二(Capcom)
-絕對不會想製作像腦力訓練這類的遊戲
-稲船在主機戰爭上，準確預測哪個平台會贏得戰爭，但卻料想不到DS會賣的這麼誇張 抱歉了(這樣懷疑你) 老任

河津(Square-Enix)
20週年紀念可能有令人驚喜的復活邪神相關系列作品

小川(Namco)
期盼時空幻境系列重大革新。敬請期待

寺田(Super Robot War’s producer)
製作團隊，可能於09年後半”改變遊戲開發方向”

日野(Level 5)
勇鬥九已進入最後準備階段
多人遊玩方面將會非常獨特，跟以往的傳統線上RPG大不相同
Ni no Kuni日本發售日期還是定於2009年期間

杉山(Koei)
希望玩家會喜歡戰國無雙3
對大亂鬥X這款遊戲印象很深刻

中裕司樂意看到"Let's" 成為系列作

A portion of a Gamasutra interview with Sonic creator, Yuji Naka…
GS: Will the “Let’s” lineup become a series of games?
YN: If it sells well enough, sure. Of course, you can’t really say how well it’ll sell at this point, but if it does great — if we can get a lot of people to play it and enjoy it — I’d love to make another one.
GS: Is Prope focused on these types of simpler games?
YN: We’re actually planning on making a game like Sonic right now. We want to keep trying to make various kinds of games.

GS:Let’s 這款作品有可能成為系列作嗎?

YN:嗯，假如遊戲賣的夠好話，系列作一定會有的。當然，目前還不知道遊戲會賣的多好?

前提是要賣的好—如果我們能夠將更多玩家拉進來並享受這款遊戲，我會很樂意再製作另一款的

GS:Prope(中裕司的遊戲公司)現在都專心投注於開發這類輕鬆簡單的遊戲嗎?

YN: 我們現在正開發一款”似音速小子”類型的遊戲。我們嘗試著開發許多不同類型的遊
