Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'd like to preface that I have not played this game at all, but my review is not concerned with actual gameplay. If you happen to live in America and you really want this game, just wait until it's released in the states and save yourself $70-$100. As an added bonus, this title will be localized in English, so you won't have to learn a foreign language in order to understand what's going on. I can see why someone might want to import a game that will never be released in the states, but seriously guys, exercise a little patience. There ARE other games out there, and if you happen to own a DS, let me reassure you that it has a HUGE library of great titles, so just do a little research and find something else that you like. Square-Enix, though not my favorite game company, has taken the time to craft a compelling story, and you're only depriving yourself of the total experience by settling for anything less. If you want to buy the game in spite of all this, that's your prerogative, and I certainly have nothing against you or your motives; I'm just trying to express why I think it may not be the best idea.

Product Description:
Dragon Quest IX marks several firsts for the main series: it is the first to be initially launched for a handheld system; first to have no random encounters (except when sailing); and the first to be designed primarily with the intent of being a multiplayer video game. In addition, it is the first Dragon Quest title to use a graphical menu system in the Japanese-language version. Dragon Quest IX was designed to be more difficult than any previous game in the series, including spinoff titles.The sales of Dragon Quest IX set new records in Japan; these sales helped boost Nintendo's earnings and have impacted future plannings by the company. The game has been generally well received by critics, but has had more mixed commentary from the general public in Japan.
