I thought Pollux were a engine just for the purpose to port ds games for wii( like an emulator would do, i dun know if i'm right that's why i said it would be cheaper just to port dqix with pollux

DQIX wasn't developed with Pollux though. Unless it's just a DS emulator (which is possible) it may not work anyway.

Besides, I think a full fledged DQVII remake would sell a whole lot better.

but to use pollux just to port dqix would be cheaper than hire HAND and arte piazza for a remake, wouldn't it?

yeah, i know there is never a game in portuguese, but if it were i would prefer to play in english... (or japanese if my nihongo were good enough¬¬)

it was strange to see that scribblenauts had a pt language lol

have you guys played hero saga laevathein? the main charas talk a lot with spanish accent, like mí hermano and so.

I think a DQ7 remake would be a better lead in, and more in line with the series history. Get Arte Piazza and h.a.n.d. to make it and you've got an easy million seller for next year.

We'll probably also get DQ1-6 on the Virtual Console and maybe some other Wii DQ spinoffs leading up to DQX (Swords 2, Torneko 4, Monster Battle Road, etc).

Protectors of the Starry Sky sounds better. T___T
But maybe SE will rename it for NA.

yeah, he did. He promised S-E president that Nintendo would help promote DQ in the west, that's probably why DQX is going to be on the Wii.

Yeah, the first one :P, and yup the portugues would be like that, but most likely it will be translated directly from spanish's tittle but i dunno if they will release this in portugues D:

Im also spanish native speaker, and i already said (like 2 times) it sounds weird, but “firmamento” already sounds “meh”, i think maybe they should do something drastic, calling a game like that (cielo estrellado), may be weird, but everything that is new, is weird, and may be a good epic win.
Actually if i see a game like that on a store, ill say “uh weird name” but, it is charming in its own way, like the world ends with you was. Cielo estrellado sounds poetic :D (and if they did something as “periplo del rey maldito” cielo estrellado is just 10 times better

The first one is the spanish one.

I like the spanish title, sounds great! (better than DQ8 “el periplo del rey maldito”, though)

which one is the spanish and which one is the italian?

Dragon Quest IX: Centinelas del Firmamento
Dragon Quest IX: Le Sentinelle del Cielo

i think it is the first one

protectors of the starry sky sounds better then sentinels

( the portuguese title would be something like)
protetores do céu estrelado ( protecors of the starry sky)
and sentinelas do firmamento ( sentinels of firmamento)

Don't you think “Dragon Quest IX: Centinelas del Cielo Estrellado” sounds weird?
As a native spanish speaker I prefer the title they chose.
