Is Dragon Quest IX Co-Op WiFi or Local?

"There's been some confusion about Dragon Quest IX co-op play. Is it local only or does it using Nintendo's WiFi connection? Just imagine playing DQIX with faraway friends!

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."

So there you go, bye-bye confusion and bye-bye DQIX WiFi dreams."

i'm glad they stayed at dragon quest and didn't try to make it like phantasy star 0 or monster hunter .

Wireless play is fine .it not like DQ is not huge already as a game

They did try to make it real time though but the fans protested and Square Enix actually listened and they all went back and changed it to a more classic style. Although I think it looks a lot more flashy than older DQs.

I think that they listened is awesome because it proves SE does actually care about it's fans, or Dragon Quest fans at least. hehe.

Oh I know the power DQ has but it shows where SE's priorites are when they'll completely backtrack on a Dragon Quest game but are willing to offend a massive chunk of the FF fanbase(Although they shouldn't be too bothered in my opinion).

Sounds like there was no confusion over it just an oversight from Kotaku.
