Blue Dragon DS on hold

DS News | Release date pushed back.

Joystiq has picked up on a story that first broke on French site Jeux-France with the news that the Nintendo DS version of the Xbox 360 RPG Blue Dragon has had its release date pushed back, with no new release date given.

The existence of the new title was revealed in early October last year and for some it's disappearance is no surprise as the fast release date of March 2008 seemed a highly unlikely prospect.

Blue Dragon DS is definitely still coming according to Jeux-France, and the site also managed to get hold of some new Japanese magazine scans.

I know some people liked this game.... but most don't. So this does not surprise me. Blue Dragon on 360 was a flop.

While I wouldn't say everyone "loves" the game it's hardly a critical flop with a Metacritic of 78. The game still sold decently for a new japanese RPG on a console marketed to an older FPS-centric crowd. A DS version would do well given the DS's success in Japan and their love of the RPG and the creators of FF. I would say this is probably a great idea - just odd because it's for the DS on a MS funded (owned?) developer.
