Square Enix has unveiled a DSiWare game called Dragon Quest Wars. It costs 500 Nintendo Points (roughly GBP 3.50 / EUR 5) and is due out across Japan in June.

Western plans are "TBC", a spokesperson for the publisher told Eurogamer.

DQ Wars is a two-player board game by Fire Emblem developer Intelligent System. Cartoon characters from the Dragon Quest series become the pieces and the game will be "easy to learn, difficult to master", according to 4Gamer (translated by Joystiq).

DQ Wars will be playable over Wi-Fi with friends, too.

Got a DSi recently and was unimpressed with the titles available on the DSiWare (Euro) store - we need more like this

Good to see a big name developer with a pretty big name IP doing something.

Ninty overegged their casual market creds with DSiware, magic 'games' could be fun but too one-off use type of stuff! Where are the real DLC contents? NOW this is more like it, come on please?!
