The title is a little overdramatic, no? I do not know the exact numbers but i dont think the game is doing very well. Im sure this is to try and pull in new players while enticing early adopters to not give up. Just too bad that they took this game only online and have seemingly no interest marketing out of Japan.

I don't think this is so bad. It's not as if this game was an iOS exclusive to begin with.

Ds Games!

You had me worried that Dragon Quest would be no more. The ones on the ds are some of my favorite rpgs of all time. I'm hoping for more on the 3ds.

Yep, I was actually scared by the title for a second :P

The actual article is not a problem. Mobile, like it or not, is the way of the future and it doesn't hurt anyone to have Dragon Quest X on mobile devices.

No kidding man, this was Kotaku levels of sensationalist/misleading lol.

Streaming games to other devices is becoming extremely popular nowadays, what with the WiiU, remote play, the VitaTV, smartglass etc... I don't understand what the issue with this is.
