"There are currently no release dates for the collection outside of Japan."

The way things are looking with Nintendo all regions except for North America will get game. Add this game to the petition list as a precaution.

I want this so bad. Sucks that we won't get it in the west.

@Kytim89 - as I said in the DQX thread, I'm pretty sure Nintendo publishes Dragon Quest games in NA now so this has the best chance of being brought over. Also, it's a known IP and a compilation that can be budget priced. I'd be surprised if Nintendo of America didn't bring this over.

This collection is cool. I just wish Nintendo had some sort of service that allowed them to release their old games in a way that let them get digitally downloaded to my Wii.

The reason this collection is unlikely to be released outside of Japan (even though I would buy it) is because the SNES remakes were never localized, so they they would to do that with all three games. This collection likely would not be a huge seller outside of Japan, so they may feel it's not worth it. Anyways, the preview of Dragon Quest X should help boost sales.

I feel in love with DQ9 so I can only hope this comes to NA.
On the other hand we do have the DS remakes that we can play.

Given that friggin' Itagaki Street (a spinoff of a spinoff) is getting localized, we may have a better chance of getting this than you think...
