[edit] Game Boy Remake

I am not at all familiar with the Dragon Warrior I & II remake for Game Boy Color. There are names in the article that I am not at all familiar with: Samantoria and Lorasia. Are they the names from the Localized remake, or are they the Japanese names for Dragon Quest II? If they are the names from the Game Boy remake, then I think that needs to be pointed out.--Rika95 00:04, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Reception

We should have a section describing how well received the game fared. This should mention sales of the game in each of its incarnations, both Japanese and localized versions. Review scores of the games in magazines would be good information, too. (I could provide the Nintendo Power critic scores for the NES Dragon Warrior II.)--Rika95 00:13, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

That would be a good idea, Rika95. These games were way ahead of their time and I don't think we give them enough credit in this article or in general for their importance to the RPG genre. Lord mortekai (talk) 01:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)

Hi. I've worked a lot with most of the DQ articles (particularly 3 and 6). Most of them have been horribly neglected here (unlike the final fantasy articles). If you ever want to do some massive editing with any of the DQ articles, drop me a note and I'll help out. : ) Evaunit♥666♥ 01:20, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
