Dragon Quest X Wii U beta set for February in Japan

Dragon Quest X: Rise of the Five Tribes Online will go into beta in February, Square announced this morning during its Nintendo Direct presentation. Beta vouchers will be included in the Premium Set editions of Wii U systems in Japan. Due to Wii and Wii U players sharing the same server, character data from Wii can be imported over to Wii U. Players will also be able to create items such as furniture, create parties, and customize their characters. Dragon Quest X will launch in Japan next year. Thanks, Gematsu.

This could be big. At least in JPN.

Wii U’s hidden potential, MMORPGs?

Could be easier because the pad can be used as hot keys…

Warcraft Wii U next?!

I know that there will be both f2p and MMOs heading to the system. But no obviously there won’t be WoW. Sony will bring over some of their stuff to their systems, and Nintendo has been in talks with NC Soft and a couple of others that I have read about.

If WoW ever hit a console, it would likly be on a MS one, but I doubt they would do that.
