Almost as surprising as the announcement to make Dragon Quest IX for the DS (after the major graphics upgrade of VIII on PS2), is the DQ franchise invasion of arcade machines. CEO Yoichi Wada said a while back that they'll be making remakes before the latest numbered installment of Dragon Quest. One of those remakes is the arcade game Dragon Quest Monsters: Battle Road.

The good news is, the game doesn't look half bad. We haven't got our hands on it yet, but this video sure caused some drooling. It's easy to mistake it as a crazy mix of Monster Rancher and Dragon Quest, together with ridiculous attacks and epic bosses. Looks like there's a pretty cool card system for the machine too, but it's hard to confirm if the sword thing is part of it.

We know you want to see it, so here it is:
