Dragon Quest 7, 8 headed to 3DS in 2016

Yeah, this is happening.

During today's Nintendo Direct, a remaster for The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess was revealed to be coming to the Wii U in March, but that might not be the biggest news that they revealed. While the Direct was taking place, Dragon Quest 7 and 8 popped up on Amazon for the Nintendo 3DS, from the official Nintendo Amazon account.

That's right, Dragon Quest 7: Fragments of the Forgotten Past and Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King  to the 3DS. If you're interested in playing the upcoming Legend of Zelda Wii U game, you might want to look into Dragon Quest 7, you can get an exclusive Wolf Link / Midna amiibo and add bonuses to this Dragon Quest 7, as well as Legend of Zelda on Wii U. Which is interesting – because the two shouldn't be linked, looks like Nintendo messed up their ad.

According to the Amazon listing, Dragon Quest 8: Journey of the Cursed King will release with the Revelation path, all on a single game card, included exclusively in this special edition, an 80 page art book (with unreleased art) and an illustrated Nintendo 3DSXL carrying pouch.

Both Dragon Quest 7 and 8  are set to release in 2016.
