Download Episode 1034 – It’s a PartyCast with a whole bunch of Nintendo Switch 2 discussion, so let’s get this show on the road!The show kicks off with Pernell Vaughan, Chris Taylor, Andy Sperry, Aki, and Big Adam Chase all on hand to talk how cold it is for some reason. We also discuss the Switch 2 and share our opinions on the game lineup, pricing details, and plenty more including a nice long, somewhat volatile conversation about the Switch 2’s awful storage capacity and future storage solutions/woes.

Once upon a time, the Balls of Light illuminated the kingdom of Alefgard, keeping its winters short and sustaining its peace. However, a man who could tame dragons and hence known as a Dragonlord, became corrupted by his magical studies. He attacked the Tantegel Castle and stole the Balls of Light, causing monsters to roam the land. A valiant hero named Erdrick, who had obtained the Balls of Light for the kingdom in the first place, attempted to defeat the Dragonlord and disappeared without trace. Many years later, during the reign of King Lorik XVI, the Dragonlord abducted Princess Gwaelin, carrying her to Castle Charlock. One day, a knight appears in front of the king, claiming to the be the descendant of Erdrick. He is entrusted with the mission to vanquish the Dragonlord, as the prophet Mahetta has predicted.

Join Pat Dooley and Ricardo Giraldo as round two of the Nintendo Entertainment Center King of Consoles tournament rolls on as iconic JRPG Dragon Warrior goes head-to-head with racing classic Rad Racer.  Two games enter, only one can advance to the third round!  Will it be the descendant of the great Erdrick, grinding throughout the countryside, trying to figure out what they're supposed to be doing? Or will it be a red car driving in more or less a straight line for an hour?   It's a fun conversation, so please subscribe to make sure you don't miss a second of the action!Questions?  Comments?  Feel free to reach out via email, Facebook, or Twitter!  You can also check out our Twitch channel, follow along with the brackets, contribute to the show financially, or see details on all the games in the tournament by checking out the IGN list that inspired our seeding. 

Next year is the 35th anniversary of the series, which means we will hopefully get lots of DQ goodies next year in the West! We know Square Enix and Armor Project have things in store, but we don’t really know what those are yet - and we definitely don’t know if they’re coming West (although some of them probably will, at least). Since it’s Thanksgiving, we want to thank you all for being such wonderful listeners and supporters. We couldn't do this without you, and we want you to know that your being here is not taken for granted. So thank you. A lot. Now, back to DQ! We’ve divided this up into three categories: games, toys, and other stuff! Games DQ 12 reveal, DQ IX Remake, 4,5, and 6 on Switch (maybe next-gen too), Dai Infinity Strash coming West, Add in the Monsters remakes on Switch, too. They exist, so why not in English? Rivals in English on Switch would be nice, too. SHAMELESS SELF PROMOTION! Patreon Here is the link to Twitter thread with people’s stores - it’s almost the holidays! Support DQ artists and crafters! https://twitter.com/DragonQuestFM/status/1328695273640628224 Toys I could totally see some kind of 35th Anniversary figures releasing of all the heroes, probably some good limited edition swag at Luida’s Bar and in Japan, but here in the West, I’m not nearly as hopeful. I’d like some cool inexpensive Dai figures and maybe some good DQ 1 35th Anniversary figures - Bring Arts seems likely. Other Stuff! A really cool limited edition Erdrick’s sword and shield set would be amazing! I love art books, so a 35th Anniversary History of Dragon Quest would be really nice too! Maybe even a scaled-down model of the DQ1 hero's armor would be awesome. Just sitting there on a desk, fully metal suit of armor. Oh yeah. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/dragonquest/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/dragonquest/support

This past week, we got tons of Dragon Quest news! We got heroes in Smash, the release of Dragon Quest Your Story in Japan, some news about DQ X that makes us want to cry, and some exciting updates about Dragon Quest XI S! First, let’s talk about the Heroes in Super Smash Bros Ultimate! Neither of us really play Smash, but we’re really excited for all of you who do. --RNG --Thwack --Petitions to not let heroes into tournaments? Wtf? --BJ wants to GameFly smash and buy the DQ stuff for under 10 bucks just to play it --Might do this or get a used copy when he goes to see Austin next week Then it’s on to Dragon Quest XI S! --There’s a demo coming, although no release date has been given. --The save file transfers over, and you get a Skill Seed for transferring data --”The One Desceded from Erdrick” premium hero card in DQ Rivals (which is in Japanese) --Confirmed that we can visit DQ X as one of the past worlds --Erik gets a new outfit, it’s the “North Leather Style” from the manga by Hiro Mashima (Fairy Tail). The manga debuts on August 21st. It’s just a one-off. --It’s redeemed from a code that comes with a book (haven’t announced what the book is yet) (maybe some hardcover edition of the manga? Since it premieres in an issue of V-Jump magazine??? --SE confirmed a harder version of Draconian Quest where all the party have Shypox. SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION Patreon.com/dragonquestfm Announce our Upcoming Q&A episode! Email us at social at dragonquest dot fm or tweet it to us or leave us a message at https://anchor.fm/dragonquest/messages Dragon Quest Your Story was released in Japan --Spoiler discussion on the Dragon Quest Inn Discord - https://discord.gg/xtVqZtX --People dislike the ending --We both know the ending but still want to watch the movie. Lastly, we wanted to put the spotlight on Dragon’s Den for a moment. --Woodus.com (Dragon’s Den) is a great fan site all about Dragon Quest. It’s been around since 1997! --Many of you listening will know about it already and probably visit it quite often. Woodus and the Dragon’s Den group do a great job within the community, and we wanted to give them a nice shout out today. --Also, they have a personality quiz--where you can see which DQ character you are. So, B.J. is going to take the test really quickly, and then we’re going to discuss it. Lolz. --Austin always gets Nevan. He’s gonna retake it alongside B.J. and see if it’s Nevan again.

In This Episode: EA - June 8 Jedi Fallen Order Metroidvania-ish (Metroid Prime) Not hack and slash combat.  More measured. Looks like an approachable dark souls combat style (minus the frustration?) After order 66 and before Rogue One Microsoft - June 9, 3pm CST The Outer worlds The interesting parts of fallout in a sci-fi setting On game pass October 2019 Bleeding Edge 4v4 Online melee combat Game pass Minecraft Dungeons Minecraft Diablo My kids want this Spiritfarer Way to the Woods Cyberpunk 2077 Keanu Reeves Spring 2020 Battletoads Microsoft bought Doublefine Psychonauts 2 LEGO Star Wars Skywalker Saga Gears of War 5 Phantasy Star Online 2 Tales of Arise Elden Ring Next Xbox “Project Scarlett” - Holiday 2020 4 generations of content Connect across devices Launching project Scarlett with Halo Infinite Xbox Game Pass on PC ($5/month) Xbox ($10/month) and Ultimate on Xbox/PC ($15/month including Xbox live gold) Basically, if you’re going to buy 2+ games during the year that are exclusive to Microsoft game studios then this is a good deal Phil spencer seems like an executive that actually gets video games. It feels like he wants all games on all platforms. Cross play Play wherever you want Game pass seems like a better and better deal all the time 34 games premiering on game pass from the press conference alone Xcloud streaming From the cloud or from your own Xbox I hope PS5 does something similar Xbox Game Pass is the only thing getting me to actually consider Xbox for the next gen system.  I still wouldn’t get it as my primary console. I think I’m pretty set on PS ecosystem at the moment for my main console. Bethesda - June 9, 7:30pm CST Boring updates on Fallout 76 and Elder Scrolls Blades Battle Royale, bleh Ghostwire Tokyo ESO more season of the dragon content Commander Keen Mobile game Boring updates on elder scrolls legends, rage 2, wolfenstein Deathloop Arkane game with time loop No actual gameplay though, but an interesting premise Orion game streaming Doom Eternal Devolver Digital - June 9, 9pm CST Direct ripping off Nintendo… I love it Stole the whole graphics package.  Wow, well done. Fall Guys was the only real game worth mentioning https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=2OAVHWmeV0c PC Gaming - June 10, Noon CST Vampire the Masquerade 2 Ubisoft - June 10, 3pm CST Watchdogs Legion London, lots of playable characters and the ability to recruit everyone No main character, you gather a ton of characters.  Individual characters can die but you can recruit more. Lots of interesting systemic things going on I’m more interested in this than any of the past Watchdogs games I want to see a systemic game without a central hero Mythic Quest TV show Rainbow six siege new season Ghost Recon Elite Squad (Mobile) Uplay+ $14.99 for all their games Stadia too Roller Champions Free alpha e3 demo now Free to play Gods and monsters Mythology game AC team Trailer hints at mix of assassin's creed and breath of the wild Square Enix - June 10, 8pm CST FFVII Remake March 2020 First game is midgar but an expanded Midgar 2 BluRay discs Real time action RPG ATB bars that fill up when you land standard attack Use them for tactical mode (slow mo almost turn based abilities) Spells and special abilities They must be stretching out the story.  This first game is only Midgar. Midgar in FFVII is only like 5-6 hours if you’re going slow and taking your time.  This game is 2 Blu Rays worth of game. They have to flesh it out. Sephiroth is here and talking to Cloud in Midgar, so there are definitely changes. FFVII isn’t actually that deep of a story.  It was for the time for a video game… but it’s really not overall. What if they never make part 2?  Or 3? Or however many parts it will be.  Most of the main characters aren’t even in Midgar.  Cloud, Tifa, Barret, Aeris, and (barely) Red XIII. Life is strange 2 Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remaster PS4, Switch, Mobile Last remnant Remaster Available immediately Dragon Quest Builders 2 DQXI on Switch - Fall Circuit superstars KH3 DLC FFXIV Shadowbringers new trailer Romancing Saga 3 Saga Scarlett Grace War of the visions FFBE Looks like a FF Tactics game Outriders Oninaki FFVIII Remaster 2019 Out on everything including Switch Avengers Looks like it could be good, but it was hard to tell gameplay from cutscenes Hawkeye gets left out Single player and co op Separate from all existing Avengers stuff Multiple year content release schedule? New super heroes and regions at no extra cost. No loot boxes or P2W I come out of this more skeptical than I was going in Out on everything except Switch May 2020 Nintendo - June 11, 11am CST Early E3 - Pokemon Sword/Shield Legendaries and release date (Nov 15) Dynamax Wild Areas! Raids E3: Pokeball+ lets you take it away from the game, but you can’t use it as a controller. Floor demo has Water gym, Nessa as trainer, and uses dynamax Treehouse has live gameplay, so go watch archives ALL the DQ heroes in Smash. Not just Erdrick, but from all the other games, too. DQXI S Looks like we get the Spirits of Lost Time village? Maybe? Last week of September (thanks Data_Error for pointing it out) Luigi’s Mansion 3 Gooigi, lolz Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Tactical RPG Tie-in to new Netflix show Link’s Awakening Create your own dungeon by placing rooms and tiles you gather. Sept 20, 2019 Trials of Mana Global release Action RPG, obvs Very pretty Early 2020 Remake of Seiken Densetsu 3? Collection of Mana Available TODAY 3 games Adventure, Secret, and Trials Witcher 3 Complete Beej buys it finally Fire Emblem: Three Houses Anime cutscenes look pretty rad July 26. Resident Evil Remake of the first game Looks like the old style, not new RE5 and RE6 are coming as well Zero, RE and 2 are available now No More Heroes 3 Action? Interesting combat from the look of it. Travis Touchdown Never played the others, but that one looks cool. Very pretty 2020 Contra Rogue Corps Action shooter Bug, panda, alien stuff, big ole booms Sept 24 Online Multiplayer Contra collection 10 games, available now Daemon X Machina Beej tried Demo. wasn’t for him. Looks a lot more interesting than before when they announced it Mech battles Shows out of suit battles, too Kind of bullet-hell and dogfighting together. Armored Core?

People are being stolen. Ir maybe Chimaeras The Legions are what you’re partnering with Connected by a chain, can ride them like mounts Reminds me of something I can’t quite place.

Back again with some fun news topics! This week we start off with our thoughts about Apex and whether it's a worthy competitor to Fortnite or not. We then talk about all the actual evidence pointing to Erdrick from Dragon Quest being the next announced Smash Ultimate DLC character. Other topics include Halo Outpost, Xbox Live on Nintendo Switch, Vivox adding VoiceChat to Switch, and Hearthstone. Side note: apologies for the smoke detector beeps later in the episode, we editted as many as we could out.

It's time... for the ULTIMATE Ultimate Prediction Episode. Who will be the last four DLC characters? Erdrick? Doomguy? Sans!? Daniel and Sean take a deep dive into the best remaining candidates, and come out with... quite a list.

This week we take a second look at music composed specifically for world maps in games. We are honored to have a musical guest joining us,  Amanda Lepre from the band Descendants of Erdrick! She brings her vast musical insight and love of fantasy RPG's to the conversation. We discuss how important it is for world map music to create the mood, emotionally setting up the player for a new section of the game. 

Dylan, Craig & Jacob discuss our personal history of the series, how we came up with the Title. And review the very first Dragon Warrior/Quest game.  The O.G. of console RPG's. Very interesting information about it's development. It has a huge influence on later RPG's. Has a sweet but limited soundtrack. A few memorable moments within it Story. Jacob & Craig played the Android/iOS version, and Dylan with the NES. We get a bit side-tracked discussing The Legend Of Zelda because of it's similarities.  

How can we harness the power of games for education? In Part 1 of the episode, the podcast explores how the PAX South 2017 gaming conference inspired ideas in better engineering education. In Part 2, we hear from two team members of TEALS, a group supported by Microsoft Philanthropies that was also at PAX. TEALS has been around since 2009, matching volunteer CS professionals with K-12 teachers in schools and developing CS curricula. John Jannone and Brett Wortzman from TEALS explained how they already use games to teach computer science to K-12 students. They discuss how to use game design, content creation, and play to achieve student learning objectives.

A week of dreary gaming news deserves a deary podcast! After talking about delicious food for a moment, we delve into the hard times that have befallen Nintendo, THQ, and Team Bondi lately. A little Descendents of Erdrick music helps pep things up, tho.
