In Japan, the Dragon Quest series is as big - if not bigger - than the Halo series is here in the United States. The next game in the series is coming from famed developer Level 5 and is set to be released in Japan on July 11th on the Nintendo DS. One of the most touted features of the game is a new cooperative mode.
But there's been some confusion over this mode, as to whether or not you could play via the internet or only local wi-fi play.
Square Enix PR clears up the issue with this: "From the beginning of development, co-op play hasn't been via WiFi, but rather DS wireless play."
And now there's no more confusion. No internet play, only local wireless. Which apparently is different than Wi-Fi. Silly Nintendo and their silly names.
