Like what Nintendo did for the Mario 25th anniversary pack ,Square Enix is releasing a collection pack on the Wii containing the first 3 Dragon Quest games (Loto/Roto Trilogy). The Disc has both the Famicom (NES) and Super Famicom (SNES) versions of all three games. This is going to be a very nice collectors piece. I don't think it'll come out in english mainly due to the super famicom versions never having an official translation. Even though there are some fantastic fan translations out there I don't think SQ would be interested in using them (If I was them I would make a deal). I'll be importing it when it gets released in September. Besides the game Square Enix is releasing some Dragon Quest 25th Anniversary goods up until the collection's launch. First is a big happy birthday slime with crown (not the fat slime king) that comes on a red mat/towel that has the DQ 25th logo in gold. Second (and if I have some spare I'm getting this for my room) A full size recreation of the Hero's helmet from the First Dragon Quest game. Third is the Symbol of Loto (it's a bloody awesome shield is what it is lol). Anyway just thought I'd share that. I'd thought I'd post it here since Johnny's a big fan of Dragon Quest.

Might have to track it down at some point. If only they would translate it because DQ 1, 2 and 3 remain to elude me for now. Would love to play an update like the DS games!

No idea what other store to use except for eBay.... BTW @DizzyDial thanks a lot! I am glad you enjoyed my Japanese imports!

I would love a chance to play some of the older games with maybe a nice book to go with it.
