Dragon Quest is a hugely popular RPG series, and Dragon Quest VIII is soon to be out on the Nintendo 3DS, something that fans of the series will no doubt be extremely excited for. Well, if you're one of those people, this report from Nintendo Everything will probably be of interest, as Dragon Quest VIII can now apparently be pre-loaded from the North American eShop on 3DS.
The report also suggests that the game requires 24,413 blocks, which equates to 3051.625MB (roughly 3 GB). If the rumour is true, then, you can download most of the data on your North American 3DS ahead of the January 20 launch.
Have you tried this out yet?
