Thanks to Square Enix and Kotaku today, I received the good news that Dragon Quest V received a US release date for February 17, 2009. For those unfamiliar with the game, this Dragon Quest title (along with Dragon Quest VI) have NEVER been released in the US before. Those who like to NOT download ROMS can NOT find a fully translated version of the original title for the Super NES, but being someone who does NOT play games like that, vows to purchase games that I NOT download from foreign lands. From their press release: DRAGON QUEST V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride Scenario & Game Design: Yuji Horii Character Design: Akira Toriyama Music Composer: Koichi Sugiyama Publisher: Square Enix, Inc. Developer: ArtePiazza Platform: Nintendo DS Genre: RPG ESRB: E10+ (Everyone 10 and older) Ship Date: February 17, 2009 Never before released in North America, this entry in the Zenithia Trilogy follows a journey that transcends three generations. Travel alongside your father on his quest to see the world, grow to set forth on a journey of your own and face life-altering decisions as you continue your family’s legacy. DRAGON QUEST V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride makes its way to Nintendo DS on February 17, 2009. The official website can be found at http://na.square-enix.com/zenithia/. Of course, there are other games, they have announced, but we know that my love is only for the slime. Given how long it usually takes to localize Dragon Quest games, I'm STUNNED that we are getting this game as early as February. As someone who has played this game from start to finish and love old school JRPGs I would HIGHLY recommend this game. It's different from DQIV, but does incorporate the world of Zenithia like DQIV does. You get to choose who to marry (which really only changes the hair color of your kids). This version adds a third option of ladies to choose. Who knows what the third lady may affect the outcome :O

Yeah I posted this like ten minutes before it hit the front page. -____- Figures.
@Garison:
I've been here, just not posting a ton of c-blogs. I posted a c-blog the other day that got front paged though...
No worries. Still sucks though. After you put effort in a blog you see it's on the frontpage.
man...DS is far too good, I haven't had a situation like this in a while. I wanted to get FFIV aswell...MAN one of the best dilemma's to be in me thinks.
Anyways what would veterans of the series recommend for somebody hoping to get into the series before the release of DQX?
I know VIII is super cheap but I don't exactly have as much time as I'd like to sit infront of a console for hours...Portable recommendations please! Unless DQVIII is one of the best RPGs of all time...
Help!
