Dragon Quest IX delayed until 2008

Square Enix CEO Yoichi Wada had previously said that Dragon Quest IX would be released after some remakes, later revealed to be DQIV, V and VI. Given that, and the general lack of information of the title thus far, we're not too surprised by the delay. DQIX was not going to make a 2007 release outside of Japan anyways, but we're still hoping to see it come to North America and PAL regions before 2009.

That pretty much sums it up. But I suppose a delay is usually a good thing, as it allows for more time to fix critical mistakes and generally improve gameplay and other key points.

Miyamoto: A delayed game is eventually good. A bad game is bad forever.
Phoenix Wright: Buy my game or you get no more suckerz!

It's a shame too because DS NEEDS A SYSTEM SELLER BECAUSE THEY ARE TOTALLY NOT CONNECTING WITH JAPANESE

"Iwata had previously said..."
I think you mean Yoichi Wada, SquareEnix CEO, not Iwata, Nintendo President.
