This is the first trailer for Theatrhythm Dragon Quest. Marvel at its majestic beauty. It's a JRPG-shaped swizzle stick here to stir up your emotions. You feel that? Yeah, that's a double shot of nostalgia clinking up against your heart like rocks in a glass. Or something. Feels good, baby.

While retailers in some countries have already committed to taking Grand Theft Auto V off shelves, Japan's just now getting the current-gen remake. For a country that has famously gotten away from console gaming, this game's performing pretty well. And, it's even moving some hardware in the process.

According to the latest Media Create statistics, Grand Theft Auto V was the third best-selling game in Japan last week, selling more than 81,000 units. That put it one place ahead of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U. Yo-kai Watch 2: Shin Uchi, a 3DS title, was the top performer with over 1.2 million sales. Interestingly enough, Assassin's Creed Rogue debuted at tenth on the charts.

GTA V's strong showing coincided with a surge in PS4 sales, as the Sony console more than quadrupled its figures over the past week. The release of the Dragon Quest Metal Slime PS4 likely contributed to the spike in sales. Predictably, the 3DS was again king of the moving hardware with more than 157,000 sold. Also, the Wii U improved slightly on its impressive performance last week.

Theatrhythm isn't just a Final Fantasy spin-off anymore; it's an established brand, one Square Enix hopes to expand into a full series of rhythm games based on its classic properties.

Theatrhythm Dragon Quest is the next step on that journey, heading to Nintendo 3DS in Japan on March 26, 2015. We'll get our first look at the game following its debut next weekend at Jump Festa in Chiba, Japan.

Remember that amazing Dragon Quest flavored PS4, with the slime on the side that looks like it's melting onto the USB ports? It finally has a release date in Japan -- December 11, 2014.

The slime is actually a USB port guard, and it will also arrive with a metal DualShock 4, as well as a code to download a theme for Dragon Quest Heroes, and an actual Heroes download code -- even if the game won't be out until February 26, 2015.

This is probably the most enticing PS4 model yet for me.

In a fan Q&A during today's Dragon Quest X TV Niconico stream, Dragon Quest X producer Yosuke Saito was asked if Square Enix would bring the game to PlayStation 4. According to  Hachima Kikou, Saito said that he wants to release the game for Sony's console, though that doesn't mean much. I mean, they say the want to do a lot of things.

The Japan-only MMORPG could definitely benefit from branching out from its Nintendo-only console playability. But the problem for us is that it is just that -- Japan-only.

I wonder how much work it would take to take the Wii U version and port it.

We got an up-close look at the recently announced Dragon Quest Heroes PS4 at Tokyo Game Show today. The Square Enix / Koei Tecmo tag team is exciting enough that Sony is bringing out this silver, slimed PS4 in Japan.

The metal slime topper melts down the system's face, which looks really great in person. There's also a cute little slime graphic on both the system side and front edge, as well as on the matching controller's right grip.

You can get a better look in our gallery.

Fat, slimy chance on this system ever releasing outside Japan.

Square Enix has released some new images of its newly announced collaboration with Koei Tecmo, Dragon Quest Heroes, and they look just stunning. The action role-playing game is slated to debut in Japan next spring for PlayStation 3 and PlayStation 4.

The original Dragon Quest is now available on iOS and Android devices for $2.99 / £1.99 / €2.69.

The classic NES role-playing game was first released in Japan by Enix in 1986, and was localized for North American audiences as Dragon Warrior in 1989. The title is often credited for popularizing the genre, and was successful enough to convince then rival developer Square to greenlight the original Final Fantasy.

The story takes place in Alefgard, a land overrun by the forces of darkness. Players take on the role of a young warrior who sets out to save the kingdom and rescue its princess from the evil Dragonlord. Yep, that old chestnut. It was a tad less cliché in the 80s. Probably.

Today's mobile release marks the title's first official release in Europe, and includes a number of changes to the visuals and user interface to better suit the platform.

Dragon Quest X hit the 3DS in Japan, and it did so well that Square Enix is temporarily halting the shipments of the game. Wait, what?

Due to a huge number of players flooding into the game at the same time, as well as the strain that the 3DS puts on the servers themselves (it needs to stream the game with cloud servers rather than actually run it), Square Enix is having a ton of problems with the servers. So rather than continue to sell the game so the issue gets even worse (cough, Battlefield 4, cough), the company is freezing shipments so it can fix the problem faster.

It's a pretty gutsy move for a publisher to make, but it's definitely appreciated.

Square Enix producers Yuu Miyake and Noriyoshi Fujimoto told Siliconera they would "love to" publish Dragon Quest X overseas. That doesn't mean it's terribly likely, though.

"In terms of this being an MMO, again, we have to consider the operation and logistics of how to make that feasible," Miyake added. "We also have to think about it from a business standpoint.

"We'd have to build a new data center for pretty much every location, and we need to make sure that makes sense as a business," he continued. "We want to be able to operate in the different regions. Again, we would love to do it, but we're still trying to work out the details and figure out what would work best [were we to bring it abroad]."

Don't hold your breath!

Square Enix announced Dragon Quest Heroes for PS3 and PS4 at Sony's pre-TGS press conference. It looks more Hyrule Warriors than series staple role playing combat -- because it's being developed by Dynasty Warriors' Omega Force -- but it is interesting to see the series back on PlayStation consoles after the long relationship between Dragon Quest and Nintendo.

They also showed off a Dragon Quest themed PS4 that won't likely make it out of Japan.

No, this is not someone trying to make a quick buck with some off brand Nontendo 3DS. This is Square Enix putting Dragon Quest IV up on the (fertile testing ground that is New Zealand) Apple Store and misspelling it.

While also charging $18.99, in typical Square Enix fashion, for an oft-ported, 24 year old game. Should be a few bucks less when it ends up on the North American store.

Square just recently announced the port.

A new Dragon Quest Monsters is in the works, Square Enix revealed this weekend at a festival in Tokyo dedicated to the popular series.

The original Dragon Quest Monsters hit the Game Boy Color around the turn of the century, arriving hot on the heels of the nascent Pokémon phenomenon. The thematic similarities between the monster-collecting role-playing games lead many to draw comparisons between the franchises, though Dragon Quest Monsters puts a heavy emphasis on breeding.

In more recent years, the sub-series has anchored itself on Nintendo 3DS and mobile devices. No specific details regarding platforms for the upcoming title have been revealed at this time.

Square Enix revealed its gamescom lineup this week, including a localized version of Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen on iOS.

The classic RPG first launched for NES in 1990, and has since come to PS1, Nintendo DS, iOS, and Android. The mobile version is based on the DS remake, which vaunts various enhancements and additional story content unseen in the original release.

No word on a release date just yet, but more information may come to light later this month in Cologne. In the meantime, you can grab Dragon Quest VIII via the App Store for $19.99.

Dragon Quest X will receive a retail release, but with a catch: there will be no cartridge inside. Instead, in the retail packaging, you will receive a code to download the game from the Nintendo eShop, a 60-day online play voucher, a poster, and a Lemon Slime Board Prism. To use your Lemon Slime Segway you will first have to get a Dollboard and then use the Dollboard customization shop to change it into the Lemon Slime.

Retail purchasers will also receive five Large Experience Point Ancient Documents that instantly give players 1000 experience points for each one used. Players will also recieve a Casino Coin ticket redeemable for 1000 Casino Coins. A lottery card is also included that will give players items like 100 mini-medals, Dollserine fuel for the Dollboard, or MP-recovering water.

Dragon Quest X releases September 4 for the Nintendo 3DS in Japan.

Dragon Quest X is coming to the 3DS in Japan, which will hopefully boost its sales a bit. It'll use "ultra steaming tech" to bring high quality visuals to the portable, alongside of extra buttons and a keyboard by way of the 3DS' touch screen, and you can play with Wii U, Wii, and PC players.

You can get a first look at the portable version with the trailer above. Expect Dragon Quest X to hit the 3DS on September 4th. Still no word on a localization.

[Update: Dragon Quest X uses cloud functionality for 3DS similar to that of the smartphone versions. This means the game runs via Square's servers, rather than natively on the handheld.]

Let's face it, Dragon Quest X is never coming west. But the MMORPG is heading to Nintendo 3DS, Square Enix announced today.

The portable version supports cross-platform play with the Wii, Wii U, and Windows PC releases. It also comes equipped with a 60-day trial subscription, which should give the title ample time to get its hooks in players before Square Enix starts demanding coin.

Dragon Quest X will be available for 3DS in Japan starting September 4, 2014.

Yuji Horii is always at the forefront of some awesome Dragon Quest news, and this time he's back with an update we can all sink our teeth into: Dragon Quest XI is in development, and will be making its way to consoles in the near future.

Horii revealed this news to Japanese radio show Mangaku N Channel SP, after avoiding the topic in several interviews and promotional talks before. During the radio interview, Horii let slip that they're currently developing Dragon Quest XI as the franchise rounds the corner to its 30th anniversary in 2016.

Horii also mentioned that while the game won't be available for mobile devices, it's also not being made for handhelds. That's where the home console news comes in, although he didn't exactly specify which or when we may be able to see the game at long last. Whenever it's headed for a release, however, you can bet we'll be siphoning more news out of the Dragon Quest pipeline soon enough.

Still haven't played and enjoyed Dragon Quest VIII? Is your PlayStation 2 gathering dust? One more question: Do you have an iPhone or iPad? You do? Awesome. You'll want to pick up the localized mobile version of the fantastic JRPG, once it's available in an iTunes Store near you.

Right now, the vertically-oriented touch screen port of the popular entry in the Dragon Quest saga is up for gamers in New Zealand for $25 in local currency, which means it'll likely run around $20 or so for US buyers. Hopefully it'll be cheaper, but the fact that it's being re-released is worth the entry price alone. This is one Dragon Quest you don't want to miss out on. Then go pick up the DS entries.

As a bonus, you'll also get a number of items including 20 days of play (for newcomers), and 20 lottery tickets. It's set for an August 7th release date for 4,800 yen. Platforms include the PC, Wii U, and Wii.

If you've been clamoring for more Dragon Quest, only to be teased with mobile games and adventures out of your reach, sit back and relax -- it's all smooth sailing from here on out. At least, I hope. Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii has divulged to VJump that the next Dragon Quest won't be headed to a smartphone near you, and will be "more of a weighty title."

Horii explains his reasoning behind making Dragon Quest games for smartphones, which basically boils down to the fact that everyone's playing them and that's what people have time for. That may be true (and profitable) but I'm waiting on some more hot slime action. If I had to guess, we'll probably end up seeing a 3DS Dragon Quest in the near future. And I'm totally fine with that.

Square Enix is presently developing the next Dragon Quest game, series creator Yuji Horii let slip at this weekend's Niconico Chokaigi event in Chiba, Japan.

Interestingly enough though, Horii might have been speaking out of turn. According to those that witnessed the reveal, Dragon Quest X producer Yosuke Saito and chief planner Anzai Takasi seemed surprised by the disclosure, as though it shouldn't have been broadcast for the world to hear.

Oh well. Too late now. But while we're on the subject... So, Square Enix, about that Dragon Quest X game... Can we get in on some of that action?

Square Enix's Dragon Quest X has sold 1 million copies since release, says producer Yosuke Saito. That's good news, but I wonder if they expected this console MMO to do better than this, sooner than this.

The Wii and Wii U game (and now even PC and mobile game) has not seen a solid date for western release yet in any form. I would hope that with this landmark they'd be energized to bring it over. I know I still want to play it.

Dragon Quest VIII is hitting the mobile market in Japan on December 12, coming to iPad, iPhone, and Android. It looks so weird in vertical format. Square seems to be on a quest to drag all of its existing games onto mobile phones.

There will be slime gear in Final Fantasy XI, as well as an appearance by XIV's Spriggan. Both have related gear and can be controlled. Meanwhile, XI's black mage Shantotto will show up in Final Fantasy XIV and can be fought via FATE. If you beat her, you get her as a minion. That's a heck of a demotion. The tiny golem minion comes from defeating giant Dragon Quest golems in a FATE.

Shantotto will also be making an appearance in Dragon Quest X. Help her out and receive a chocobo hat. The cactaur mask comes from a sidequest assigned by a moogle.

It's been quite some time since a new Dragon Quest game has graced these shores, but if recent trademark sightings indicate anything, our fortunes might just be turning for the better in the near future.

Uncovered over at Siliconera, two trademarks hint at the possibility that either Square Enix or Nintendo will perhaps localize new games in the series for western consumption. What makes both trademarks stand out is that they are in english (Luminaries of the Legendary Line and The Seeds of Salvation) and that they follow the clever alliteration traits of previous titles that have been localized, like Dragon Quest VI: Realms of Revelations and Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies.

Hopefully, if these trademarks prove to be valid proof of impending translations, we will get the Dragon Quest VII remake that's on 3DS. Though I guess I'd be down with Dragon Quest X on either Wii U or PC.

If you don't want to watch the whole thing because you're still disappointed Dragon Quest X has yet to leave Japan, at least catch the delightful final 15 seconds or so.

Dragon Quest X released on the Wii to great success. It fared way less well on the Wii U, where sales were not good, which might be why Square released a PC version and is working to bring it to iOS and Android this year.

While Square seemed open to the idea of bringing the MMORPG out of Japan, there's no news on that front. Meanwhile, the expansion, Dragon Quest X Version 2, is coming to Wii, Wii U, and PC on December 5 in Japan. You can befriend and train monsters! Which reminds me that we're not getting the 3DS Dragon Warrior Monsters remake, either. Sad.

What happens when Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, and Tales producers Yosuke Saito, Shinji Hashimoto, and Hideo Baba share space in Japanese monthly V Jump? JRPG nerds fangasm off into the sunset.

A snippet of possible collaboration talks comes courtesy of Siliconera. This is almost assuredly "what ifs" and "if only" spit balling. Don't expect some sort of Miami Heat-esque JRPG Voltron. But you can think about it, and hopefully that gets you through the day.

Baba (Tales): "If you can do it, then by all means!"
Saito (Dragon Quest): "Shall we? We can start right away."
Baba: "How about [Akira] Toriyama's first Tales of game?"
Hashimoto (Final Fantasy): "If Toriyama is okay with it, then we're okay with it. As long as we stay true to the world view, I think [Yuji] Horii would be okay with it, too."

Hashimoto: "How about Kosuke Fujishima (Tales of character designer) draws for a Final Fantasy, and Tetsuya Nomura do Dragon Quest?"
Baba: "I'm pretty sure Fujishima would do it."

Last we heard, Dragon Quest I-VIII were heading to the iOS and Android platforms in Japan as ports. Compliments of Famitsu, we can now get a closer look at how it operates, including a taste of the radial movement wheel for world map navigation, and a bit of combat.

Considering how well the Final Fantasy ports worked out on the mobile platform, I'm thinking about picking up the first few at the very least, and keeping my eye out to see if the more modern games translate well.

In addition to a new iOS and Android Dragon Quest game, it seems as if Square Enix has something more exciting up their sleeve -- ports of Dragon Quest I through VIII! Although they haven't been confirmed outside of Japan, this is a great way for people who haven't been able to wrestle up these classics to be introduced to them in some form or another.

Though I think some ports will lend themselves to the mobile platform more than others (I-IV should be perfect given their simplicity), I would be interested in trying out pretty much all of these.

Square Enix keeps churning out Dragon Quest games at a decent rate, and now, you can add an iOS and Android game to that mix, by the name of Dragon Quest Monsters. A teaser site has been created, but it doesn't offer much outside of a logo and some old school sound effects.

The site merely lists it as an "RPG," so right now, details are pretty scarce.

Square Enix is working with NTT Docomo and Ubitus Inc to bring online MMORPG Dragon Quest X to mobile platforms in Japan. This is more of a streaming application than a full port, using Ubitus' cloud tech for online play. This means that you'll see content of the mobile version matching that of its home counterparts.

NTT Docomo's dGame platform will launch the service this winter for Android and iOS devices.

A press release says that they plan to use overlaid touchscreen controls for mobile devices (read: on-screen d-pad), and will support optional Bluetooth joystick support.

Dragon Quest: Monster Parade is Square Enix's latest free-to-play PC venture, this time with its venerable Dragon Quest franchise. According to Siliconera, it's a "real time adventure parade," and will feature items you can buy with your real money.

The game doesn't launch until the end of the month, but you can register here if you want to put your Japanese up to a Dragon Test.

What you should do is go watch the trailer and then never think of this game again. The vibrant art and familiar design is the perfect thing to brighten up your day, but linger too long and you'll be acutely aware of Square's depressing forays into mobile and free-to-play whatever with all of its franchises and you'll make yourself sad again and... oh no! Quick, look at the cute little slime!

Actually, I can do you one better. Paprika's parade.

Foolishly, one of the bigger reasons I wanted to pick up a 3DS was for the remake of a Gameboy Color favorite, Dragon Warrior Monsters (Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry's Wonderland in Japan). Unfortunately, Dragon Quest Monsters: Terry's Wonderland 3D came out in Japan almost a year ago now and a Western release doesn't seem to be in the slime.

Meanwhile, Dragon Quest Monsters 2: Iru and Luca's Wonderful Mysterious Keys, a remake of what we will, for simplicity, refer to by the stateside name of Dragon Warrior Monsters 2, has been announced for 3DS. In Japan, obviously. There is a website and everything.

First Japan hoards one of the cooler 3DS models (one which would have seen me purchasing a 3DS two and a half years ago), now it continues to hoard Dragon Warrior Monster goodness. Fine. It's not like I need another lengthy time sink in my life anyway.

According to Gematsu, it "will have over 800 monsters, including new ones from Dragon Quest X, "Super G Size" monsters, and four-on-four monster battles. It will support local and internet correspondence, StreetPass, one save slot, and eight person multiplayer." Sounds fun. Uhm, I mean, it's not like I wanted you, or anything. Did you?

It's been nearly a year since Dragon Quest X first launched for the Nintendo Wii. Since then, Square Enix has released a Wii U version of the online role-playing game and there's a PC port in the works as well. Awesome. Sounds great. So, is the publisher looking into the title overseas?

"Of course," Square's Yu Miyake told Weekly Famitsu. "However, as for whether it'll be run in the Dragon Quest style in the overseas market, every nation has its own play style and sensibilities, so I don't think it'll be a single game worldwide like with Final Fantasy XI."

"Different countries play games at different speeds, and the community management is also diverse," reasons producer Yosuke Saito. "It's more than just if players would be able to enjoy universal seasonal events, so I believe we should manage countries and areas separately. That's why I think we should have separate servers for each country."

What exactly that means for a potential international release remains a mystery. Square Enix has yet to announce any plans to bring Dragon Quest X to Western markets.

Square Enix announced today on a special ten-hour Dragon Quest X livestream that the once-Nintendo exclusive will be coming to PC on September 26 in Japan. The base game will retail for ¥ 3990 Yen (roughly $40) in addition to a deluxe version for ¥ 9800 that includes: a Dragon Quest X PC game controller, monster encyclopedia book, microfiber map of the world, security token, and some additional in-game content.

What this means for Nintendo is anybody's guess. The Dragon Quest series has always been huge in Japan and this Nintendo exclusive was a major selling point for both the Wii and now Wii U. Hopefully there's at least a better chance of this game eventually coming stateside; as you really can't have too much Dragon Quest RPG goodness. Only time will tell though.

Hey, cheater! Want to level up but don't want to put in the time? Playing Dragon Quest X? One smart Japanese gamer has come up with a way to rig up a PC that will leve your DQX character up while you are off enjoying the sunshine (or another game).

The PC has a special macro set that puts your character on autopilot for a few days. When you come back from enjoying your life, you'll be 65 levels stronger!

Rocketnews24 says that, according to Yahoo! Auctions feedback for the item, some have already purchased and have used this PC. What's crazy is that it goes for for about $1,000. What sucks is that it probably violates the game's terms of service.

Square Enix expressed disappointment a couple months ago with the performance of Dragon Quest X on Wii, despite the MMO outpacing the sales and subscription retention of Final Fantasy XI, the most profitable FF ever. With the release of the Wii U port around the corner, I was sure that those numbers would improve and turn Square Enix's frown around.

The game released last week, at its opening sales were... not good. Only 33,302 units sold, which puts it right under the Vita port of Muramasa: The Demon Blade. I wasn't expecting super huge numbers, considering it's a port and all, but a Dragon Quest game doing that poorly!? That is really disappointing.

Of course, the cynics will say it's because no one wanted a Dragon Quest MMO -- the hundreds of thousands of sales on Wii would say otherwise -- but I insist that it's because of the Wii U's continued software struggles. The only other Wii U release that week was Game & Wario, the first first-party title for the platform since Nintendo Land and New Super Mario Bros. U, and it only hit 22,491. Something needs to be done about this situation, but what?

This new Dragon Quest X trailer is brought to you by the concept of death. Death: the great inevitability for us all.

The opening seconds show the typical burning RPG village, all the motionless villagers strewn about, before an evil purple badass cuts a crescent-shaped rift in the sky that begins seeping a very foul miasma. Jump ahead a minute and our heroic party is now engaged in a montage of monster battles, paying back for all the innocent lives lost with even more bloodshed.

This Wii U up-port of the Wii MMO looks... well... like a Wii U up-port of a Wii game. But at least the graphics benefit from the extra sharpness. Dragon Quest X, which recently entered open beta in Japan, still hasn't been announced for the West, but our pals in the East will be getting their Akira Toriyama on come March 30.

I have been trying to get into the Dragon Quest series of games for a few years now, mostly from the positive response that RPG players have given the series. I also love finding regular everyday items that get an infusion of videogame flavor into them. Hori has worked with the Dragon Quest franchise in the past, but this time they are looking to make things a bit more metal.

This adorable little collector's item is a fully functional USB keyboard that can be used in conjunction with the upcoming Dragon Quest X on Wii U. All of the individual Metal Slime figures can be removed for easy storage or left on for maximum awesomeness. Hori is looking to release the keyboard this spring at ¥4980 or $53 USD, but there is no word yet on a North America release.

Now if Hori could release their Metal Slime army around the Dragon Quest X North America release, I think that will make many a fan boy's year.

We still lack a Western release announcement for the "oh so horribly performing" Dragon Quest X, but Japan finally has a solid date for the Wii U version: March 30. It will cost ¥6980 (~$74) and include 20 free days of play.

The game's beta will begin on March 6, open to players with a Certificate of Registration currently included in Wii U Premium Sets. Characters you use in the beta can then be transferred into the final version of the game.

To sweeten the pot even further, a DQX hardware bundle will go on sale for ¥42,000 (~$447). It'll include the black Premium Wii U, the game itself, a Pro Controller, a ¥1000 prepaid card, and five in-game super health orbs. Nintendo will also sell a limited number of DQX-themed prepaid cards in ¥3000 denominations.

Did I mention there will be off-TV play with the GamePad? Yeah, that too.

Oh no, you guys! Square Enix is slightly disappointed in Dragon Quest X's sales performance! Despite it's clearly doing well, the MMO is not hitting whatever magical expectations SE set for it. I guess that means the DQ brand is now spiraling the drain, right? *BUZZ* Wrong!

The latest Media Create tracking numbers have been released, and the 3DS remake of Dragon Quest VII has sold 827,922 copies in its first week. The game's initial shipment was a very Form 2 Frieza-esque one million, which means a nearly 83% sell-through rate and (I'm assuming) sell-outs in various outlets. This is biggest Japanese launch for a 3DS title overall, and the second largest launch for a DQ remake after DQVI on the DS.

So the status quo is maintained. Japan is still Dragon Quest land.

Square Enix recently reported a loss for the April to December 2012 period, the first loss since Square and Enix joined forces back in 2003. There are several reasons why this situation, but MSN Japan fingers a specific offender for the financial slump: Dragon Quest X. The upkeep of the Wii-exclusive MMO's servers is partially to blame, and it sounds as though DQX isn't meeting sales expectations either, even though Square Enix reports "steady progress."

This news strikes me as more than a little odd, considering the game's performance thus far. Released in August, DQX has sold over 630,000 units through the end of December. While that may sound lower than the millions that the franchise typically sells, remember that an MMO's success hinges on subscription retention. The game had broken the 400,000 subscribers mark by the end of October, a feat which took Final Fantasy XI -- the most profitable Final Fantasy ever, mind you -- roughly 18 months to achieve.

Considering that Square Enix claims that the game is still growing, I can only assume that the studio was hoping for even more physical sales or a larger percentage of subscribers. It's hard to guess exactly what SE was hoping for, but DQX has already recovered it's dev costs and will continue to generate revenue through 2013. And despite the slow sales of Wii U software, the Wii U version of DQX, expected in March, will likely line SE's pockets even further.

Japanese convenience store chain Lawson was already beyond amazing with their fried treats, assortment of novelty ice creams, and well-stocked fresh food section, but they've leveled up even further with their choice of grocery bags to put that all in.

Get a load of these slime bags! These Dragon Quest-inspired red or blue bags are to promote the upcoming release of Dragon Quest VII: Warriors of Eden on 3DS in Japan. RocketNews24 says that they'll start giving them out from January 26, though you'll have to buy enough to warrant needing a bag first.

And here's a related travel tip from my upcoming book [seriously!] on traveling to Japan. Those silly travel guides always leave out a phrase that you're likely to hear if you visit kombini like Lawson. Buy more than two items and you'll hear something like 'fukuro wa yoroshii desu ka?' from the clerk. They would be asking if you'd like a bag. In this case, you'd say yes.

You'd expect to play as a wizard or warrior in a Dragon Quest game, but in this McD DS downloadable promotional game in Japan, you can also play as a McDonald's crew member or store manager.

DS title Dragon Quest VII: McDonald's' Mysterious Stone Tablet is a collaboration between Nintendo/Square Enix and McDonald's Japan, and is downloadable at Japanese locations of the restaurant between Jan. 11 and Mar. 28.

In it, as a warrior or fry slinger, you'll fight enemies to collect stone tablet pieces that you'll collect to form full tablets. One of these tablet pieces looks like a McDonald's Big Mac in the images we found at Gamer.

Worried about storage space? Don't be. The latest Nintendo Direct tells us that Dragon Quest X will use the cloud to hold saves for this MMO, according to Inside Games. So, no messing with silly external USB storage, especially for those that have the 8GB standard Wii U system.

A new Japanese trailer also surfaced from this morning's event. It looks beautiful! Enjoy.

You can always count on a great soundtrack from the Dragon Quest franchise, and that's mainly because series mainstay Koichi Sugiyama has been at the music's helm since its inception. That, and his scores for each title are incredibly formulaic.

Given the MMORPG nature of the Dragon Quest X, I imagine Sugiyama has written a ton of music for the game, but none of that has been released. What's being released today in Japan is the customary "Symphonic Suite" album containing live arrangements and suites dedicated to the game's battle themes, dungeon themes, and more.

My copy is already on its way, and I'm greatly looking forward to hearing what Koichi Sugiyama has up his sleeves at age 81. It's available from CD Japan (with samples) for 3,000 Yen ($34) for those who are interested.

LOS ANGELES Lockheed Martin Corp. was preparing to lay off about 3,000 employees Oct. 7 "as a result of the government shutdown," although developments over the weekend at another big aerospace manufacturer indicates the industry may be tempering its initial cutback plans.
The Bethesda, Md.-based aerospace and defense company said Oct. 4 that the number of affected employees will "increase weekly in the event of a prolonged shutdown," including those who are unable to work because the government facility where they work is closed, as well as those whose work requires a government inspection that cannot be completed.
Lockheed Martin did not disclose which of its programs would be affected by the furloughs.
"Im disappointed that we must take these actions, and we continue to encourage our lawmakers to come together to pass a funding bill that will end this shutdown," Lockheed Martin president and chief executive officer Marillyn A. Hewson said in a statement.
However, Hartford, Conn.-based United Technologies Corp. canceled plans to furlough 2,000 employees at its Stratford, Conn.-based Sikorsky Aircraft division this week after the Defense Contract Management Agency recalled inspectors who are responsible for auditing and approving operations throughout the manufacturing process for military products.
A spokesman for Pittsburgh-based RTI International Metals Inc., the main supplier of titanium mill products for Lockheed Martins F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, said Oct. 4 that defense represented less than 20 percent of RTIs business. "We dont expect to see (the shutdown) have any near-term impact," he told AMM, although the company will "continue to monitor the situation."
Los Angeles-based service center chain Reliance Steel & Aluminum Co. also expected no short-term effects from the shutdown. Chairman and chief executive officer David Hannah told AMM Oct. 4 that he did not hear "from any of our people" about the shutdown affecting the companys business.

BNSF Railway's profit of $488 million in the recession-struck third quarter was down 29.8 percent from a year earlier, as revenue fell 26.7 percent to $3.49 billion.
Yet the carrier also cut 27 percent out of its expenses, so that its net income at 14 percent of revenue was only slightly less than a 14.6 percent it earned in the 2008 period.
"During the recession, BNSF has demonstrated significant operating leverage through ongoing dedication to controlling costs and productivity improvements," said Matthew K. Rose, the chairman, president and CEO. That approach, along with market opportunities, "places BNSF in a strong position when the economy recovers," he said.
Freight volume in units handled fell 17.5 percent, but per-unit receipts declined only 12 percent as BNSF and other railroads continued to firm up their pricing and idled equipment capacity to match demand. The company's average work force in this year's July-September quarter was 9 percent smaller than in 2008.
BNSF ended the quarter with cash and equivalents on hand of $1.16 billion, up from $633 million at the end of December.

Opinion: Samsung smartwatch? Stupid. Sony lens camera? Smart!
The biggest news to come out of IFA, Europe's version of the Consumer Electronics Show— undeservedly so, IMHO — was Samsung's Galaxy Gear; "it's a 'wearable' not a smartwatch" smartwatch.
Why undeservedly? My two cents: Galaxy Gear is too pricey, it's compatible only with a limited number of Samsung's devices, it's meant to match the fancy leather-backed Galaxy Note 3 phablet and tablet but looks like a Swatch, it's too clunky for even medium-sized wrists, it takes only antediluvian 1.9-megapixel photos, and can you imagine walking down the street holding the back of your wrist to your ear to conduct a conversation via the clasp mic/earpiece? And you thought wearing a Bluetooth earpiece all the time made you look stupid (if you didn't, well, it does).
No, there were far more important and future-impactful device developments that debuted in Berlin. And one in particular could change how we take photos forever.
Camera Market Free Fall
One additional aspect of the new iPhone 5s relates to this most important IFA intro: the improved camera. Apple has taken the HTC One route for photo improvement; instead of jacking up to more useless megapixels, Apple made the existing 8-megapixels on 5s' BSI CMOS sensor 15 percent larger to improve low light performance, the Achilles' heel of all smartphone cameras. Coupled with the dual cool/warm TrueTone flash, the f/2.2 lens, image stabilization and Apple's A7 64-bit processor power, and iPhone's already best-in-class camera should be even better.
It's this kind of smartphone camera improvement that's been prompting us to leave our digital cameras home in droves. According to the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA), the folks who run CES, sales of point-and-shoot cameras are in the midst of a 44 percent Felix Baumgartner-like free fall this year after an Acapulco cliff dive of 35 percent last year.
So it's no surprise that camera makers want to combat this smartphone camera menace as murderously as Boardwalk Empire'sNucky Thompson did Gyp Rosetti (and vice versa).
One tactic has been the development of the so-called compact system camera (CSC), interchangeable lens cameras on bodies the size of point-and-shoot cameras. Again according to CEA, sales of these $500-plus CSCs will grow 18 percent this year.
These positive CSC sales indicate we still want to take high-quality photos. But most smartphones take barely adequate snaps, and that's damning with barely perceptible praise. And no matter how much Apple and other smartphoners smarten up their cameras, we're still capturing those priceless once-in-a-lifetime/cherish-forever memories through no more than a fancy peephole.
The Smartphone Photo Solution?
Which, at long last, leads us to what may possibly be the most fascinating new product unveiled at IFA, and perhaps the year: the Sony QX lens cameras.
In case you've missed this news, the two QX models — the QX100 ($500) and the QX10 ($250, pictured) — are bodyless cameras, or, a complete camera in a lens sans screen and body.
A mount with adjustable clamps attaches the QX lens to the phone to create a Frankenstein camera. The QX then pairs to the phone via Wi-Fi Direct (via NFC, if your smartphone is so equipped), so you can see what the lens sees on your smartphone screen via Sony's PlayMemories Mobile app for Android or iOS.
Or, just hold the QX in your other hand, or place it somewhere across the room or even another room, as long as it's within Wi-Fi range, to view and control remotely for selfies, surreptitious or self-including group shots.
The point is, you now can now bypass the crappy peephole smartphone camera lens to shoot CSC- or DSLR-quality photos or 1080p MPEG-4 (not AVCHD) video. The sophisticated QX100 is endowed with a DSLR-like 1-inch 20.2-megapixel APS-C sensor inside a 28mm-100mm 3.6x optical zoom lens; the QX10 shoots 18.2-megapixel photos through a 25-250mm 10x optical zoom Sony G lens.
Photos are saved to both the QX on a microSD card in high-resolution and to your phone in share-friendly low resolution.
The Big Catch
Except, the QXs are badly flawed. They're too expensive, and establishing and then maintaining the Wi-Fi Direct connection is a pain in the rear (I'll have a full review in a week or so).
But while Sony's first-generation lens cams may need work, you can lay money that every camera maker and cheap knock-off company will scramble to clone the clever QX concept, but at more popular prices and perhaps in phone-specific models.
By CES this coming January, or maybe even in time for the pending holiday shopping season, I envision cheaper external lens/case combos specifically for the iPhone 5/5s/4/4s or the Samsung Galaxy S4.Maybe one that connects directly to the iPhone's Lightning or an Android/Window phone's microUSB connector to complement the cool but convoluted and unpredictable Wi-Fi Direct connection.
Perhaps even Sony will see the error of its pricing ways and unveil its own sub-$150 QX model and iPhone/Galaxy S4-specific solutions.
In all events, I predict QX will spark a land rush by desperate camera makers to fill out this whole new smartphone accessory camera category. If this prediction comes true, the QX, not any stupid smartwatch, can lay claim to this year's most important and innovative new gadget.

Value for tight end might be highest in Washington Brad Biggs
Bogus Martellus Bennett tweets certainly caused a stir this morning.
But it is still possible the New York Giants could re-sign the tight end, and the Washington Redskins might keep their tight end too.
John Keim of the Washington Examiner reports that the "Redskins have told others they expect to re-sign (Fred) Davis." The club placed the franchise tag on Davis a year ago but elected not to use that designation on him for 2013.
If the Redskins do not strike a deal, Davis will be an unrestricted free agent on Tuesday. There might not be a robust market for Davis because of a series of issues Keim outlines, foremost the torn Achilles tendon Davis suffered in October. They are not easy injuries to bounce back from.
Davis also has a past that includes a drug suspension and a bizarre case in which Davis served as his own attorney in court. So, there would be issues for a new team to wade through when considering paying Davis. It might just be a situation where his value is highest in Washington, even if it's not quite what the player was hoping it would be.

CALUMET CITY — Four people were in need of shelter early Tuesday after their home caught fire in south suburban Calumet City.
Firefighters responded to the second story blaze in the 400 block of Freeland Avenue in Calumet City about 12:10 a.m., said Calumet City Fire Capt. Glenn Bachert.
There were no injuries. It took firefighters less than an hour to extinguish the fire, Bachert said.
However, water damage rendered the house uninhabitable, Bachert said. The American Red Cross was on the scene to aid the displaced residents.
The cause of the fire is under investigation by the Calumet City Fire Department.

|HS Code:
|Production Capacity:
Product Detail
- Trademark: Haidebei
- Standard: Kinds Of DAC
- HS Code: 38180010
- Production Capacity: 2000T/Year
Our Chitosan is made of deep-sea snow crabs in Alaska State, America, and is taken from the carapace by the process out of DAC after getting rid of any calcium, phosphor, protein, coloring matter, impurity, etc. It belongs to a type of macro molecular matter on the basis of glucamine and because of its own unique polycation electrolyte in our nature, is full of many special functions. For example, it can be absorbed by the cells of our human being, eat up any kind of heavy metals and be broken down or absorbed easily by enzyme. Accordingly, it will be used to prevent from any diseases, regulate our physiology, and it is believed that it will be widely utilized in many industries such as pharmacy, food stuff, drinking, etc, and can even be seen as the sixth body element after the original elements necessary to our human being, sugar, protein, fat, mineral substance, Vitamin.
Chitosan Oligosaccharide
Chitosan are polysacchride having heavy molecular weight and insoluble in water, so it is very limited in the uses, especially in human body. Chitosan Oligosacchride made by enzyme method can be dissolved in water easily and it have versatile high bioactive functions. While chitosan works only from the stomach and intestines as it is not absorbed into the system, Chitosan Oligosaccharide can reach the colon where it is broken down by the enzymes and delivered throughout the body to cleanse cells of waste.
Chitosan Oligosaccharide has the following benefits:
Binds excess fat and inhibits fat absorption
Lowers LDL/boosts HDLcholesterol
Anti-cancer, Anti-bacterial
Supports immunity
Lowers blood sugar
Controls blood pressure
Prevents constipation
Clears Pb and other heavy metals out of the body and enhances absorption of calcium
Prevents Heart disease
Reduces blood levels of uric acid
Application fields:
Food field: because of its high solubility, we can take it as processed such as special nutritional foods and various kinds of functional drinking products, health aid food.
Pharmaceutical field: it has a strong absorbtivity, therefore it can be used variously as a health supporter, such as a prevention of aging, geriatric diseases, and so on.
Agriculture field: improve crop quality and output, kill insectpest.
Medical and research reagent fields.

The company has established a competitive program to provide financial assistance to students who are pursuing an undergraduate degree or equivalent in a STEM field (science, technology, engineering and math) at five premier institutions globally: Massachusetts Institute of Technology; University of Wisconsin-Madison; University of California-Berkeley; Imperial College London and Fudan University in Shanghai. These schools are also located in regions where Thermo Fisher has a significant presence.
"Thermo Fisher is dedicated to instilling a passion for STEM education in students who may one day be our employees, or our customers," said Marc N. Casper, president and chief executive officer of Thermo Fisher Scientific. "By making education more accessible for some of the brightest young minds, we hope to have a positive impact on industries that are using science to improve healthcare, the environment and public safety."
The STEM Scholarship Program will provide funding to 44 students annually. The company intends to grow the program to full maturity in four years with 164 students.Eligible students must be admitted to one of the five institutions, where they would expect to complete a bachelor's degree, or equivalent. Applicants are required to demonstrate strong academic skills along with a focus in a STEM-related discipline and a commitment to community involvement. Scholarships will be renewable for up to four years, pending academic achievement and continued full-time enrollment in an approved field of study. As the world leader in serving science, Thermo Fisher Scientific promotes science education by supporting initiatives that inspire students to pursue studies in STEM fields. The new scholarship program is part of its overall multimillion-dollar commitment to STEM education, including support of the Mass Math + Science Initiative, the Pittsburgh Promise, The Life Sciences Foundation and numerous activities through its Community Action Councils worldwide.

LONDON (Reuters) - ICC match referee Chris Broad said he and colleagues had been left like "sitting ducks" by a lack of security during Tuesday's ambush on the Sri Lanka cricket team in Lahore that left six players injured. Broad, who was part of the convoy on its way to the Gaddafi stadium and whose driver was one of seven people killed in the attack, raised security concerns before the test match tour. He said he had been promised "presidential style security" by the Pakistan security forces, but it had not been provided. "There was not a sign of a policeman anywhere. They had clearly gone, left the scene and left us to be sitting ducks," he told a news conference after returning to England. "I am extremely angry that we were promised high level security and in our hour of need that security vanished," added former England cricketer Broad. "I am very angry with the Pakistan security forces."

Pakistani militants seen most likely behind attackISLAMABAD (Reuters) - An investigation into the attack on Sri Lanka's cricket team in Lahore has found signs that Pakistani militants with possible ties to al Qaeda were responsible, a senior government official said on Saturday.

Lan·francbiographical name \ˈlan-ˌfraŋk\
Definition of LANFRANC
Lanfrancbiographical name (Concise Encyclopedia)
(born c. 1010, Pavia, Lombardydied May 28, 1089, Canterbury, Kent, Eng.) Archbishop of Canterbury (1070–89). An Italian scholar who settled in Normandy, he joined the Benedictine monastery of Bec and was made its prior. He became a trusted adviser of William I (the Conqueror), who made Lanfranc the first abbot of St. Stephen's at Caen and nominated him as archbishop of Canterbury after the Norman Conquest of England. Lanfranc reformed and reorganized the English church, asserted the primacy of Canterbury over York, and introduced the moral components of Gregorian reform. He uncovered a conspiracy against the king (1075), and he secured the succession for William II against Robert II (1087). Lanfranc was also a renowned scholar and theologian who was noted for his criticism of Berengar of Tours's teaching on the Eucharist.
