    And all the naysayers said it wouldn't happen. They wouldn't listen to the argument of "they aren't going to release VI immediately after XI".
    <Evan_G> i keep my games in an inaccessable crate where i can't play them

    Who said it wouldn't happen? It still took them two years to release after V which is ridiculous.

    Not so ridiculous, as Square Enix had the game translated for the different European markets, not just in English. I've played both DQIV and V (North American releases) and my DS is set to French, and I can say that the French translation for both games is perfect. I can't judge of the quality for the other languages (other than English), but I could imagine that it is one of the main factors in release delays, aside from some strategic planning from Square Enix.

    Yay!!! This is excellent. Finally the Dragon Quest arc is going to be complete in our region. And just in time. I now have a job so I can get complete copies of all these handheld Dragon Quests starting with the couple of Game Boy Color games I never did end up buying full boxes for.

    The Nintendo DS has so many RPGs I want. It's too bad they hadn't held off till the Game Boy Advance to re-release Dragon Warrior I, II & III. 8-bit to practically 64-bit is a big jump when playing through a series and you can't play GBC carts on a DS, but the GBC versions are still a bit easier to handle than the NES versions. I'll probably just use my Gamecube to play the GBC games.

    I might wait to see if there's a sale at Kmart or Amazon. If I don't see one within a couple months I'll buy it full price. After having a hard time finding a new DQ5 because they went out of print, I'll make sure to pick this up early.

    No. DS is dying. They'd have to remake DQ 1-3 in color and new graphics. DQVII would have to be completely redone as its got alot of CG and is even in it's PS1 state too much for the DS to handle. That won't be happening.
    Because it makes no attempt to be great, it is therefore extremely great.

    1-3 together on a card would rule and I've been saying so for a couple years now.

    They could use the 4-6 engine, and lots of the art from them too. 1 would be pretty simple/quick, and would give you some parts to reuse in 2 and 3 too. I think it could happen quickly enough to make it within the DS's lifespan, just if they'll do it or not. I doubt it'll happen for 7.

    is the question only a matter of cg movies? if that is the only issue, then there are several ways around this, if it is even an issue.

    No thats only part of the 'issue'. The PSOne 3D engine is a bit different than what the DS '3D' engine can handle. The whole game would need major reworking, something it won't get before the 3DS is the big boy on the block. Besides, even w/o the CG, I think DQ VII is just too big for a single DS cart.

    I wish they would bring out 1,2 & 3 but we know that would never happen.
