S2 E45 - Dragon Quest 35th Anniversary Wishlists

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.
