Yeah, it won't be smash; already announced, and it's not even much of a shocker. Same with "OMG, Nintendo's making a Pokemon/Mario game? I never would have guessed." I feel like it almost has to be a third party game or big third party collaboration.
DQ makes a lot of sense to me, and something they would gloat about. They might also gloat if they got like...MGS5 or RE6 or FF15.
