ESRB Rating Confirms Dragon Quest 4 US Release
It seems the ESRB has gone and rated Dragon Quest IV: Chapters of the Chosen for the Nintendo DS, and given it an E-10. Since the organization isn't really in the habit of making up games they think sound fun, Americans should probably expect to see this game sometime later this year even though Square Enix has been mum on the subject.
Although North American gamers did get to play this game on the NES way back in 1992 (as Dragon Warrior IV), we missed the Playstation remake so this is pretty good news for old fans as well as folks new to the series. Perhaps most exciting is this release suggests that Square Enix might be up for localizing the Dragon Quest V and VI remakes coming to Japan in the near future. Neither of those titles has seen an (official) English translation at all.
I've played Dragon Warrior for the NES, fumbled around for about 20 years, then played Dragon Quest VIII for the PS2. I'm definitely interested in seeing a bit of what I missed.

Poor Dawdle, this would definitely be the best RPG on the NES. Definitely don't let it slip through your hands when they release it stateside. Also, 5 might be recommended to miss because it is extremely taxing on those who can't handle LOTS of text (it also even suffered in comparison to the other DQ games because of that) and not everyone can handle that. Definitely don't let 6 go though, that one was an amazing masterpiece.
I loved this game from Nintendo to the gameboy version and now it will be remade for the DS! YES!! The best Dragon Warrior, I mean Dragon Quest game EVER!!
