I think that there are a significant number of people who play Tenjiku Shogi, which is 16x16. In that game, however, each player has 2 Fire Demons which constantly 'burn' all enemy pieces on the eight adjacent squares, and it has quite a range, so the game has some very voilent openings with mass casualty. Maybe that helps to make it more playable.
