You're dreaming Carl. With the success of DQIX on the Nintendo DS, there is no chance they will return the franchise to a Sony console. Even more when we know that Nintendo itself will publish the game in Europe and NA.

At best the PS3 might get a port of Dragon Quest Swords.

Thats odd seeing that the most successful DQ game is on a playstation platform, the ps2 remakes sold on par with those on the DS.  Saying that DQIX is a success is silly, the mainline games have been a success on all the platforms it is released on.

 

Nintendo publishing doesnt really mean anything, what value can Nintendo add that SE cant?

 

SE proved it can sell DS software fine with kingdom hearts, TWEWY and FF 4

 

First of all, in Japan, the most successful Dragon Quest game has already been Dragon Quest IX, with more sales still being made.

Second of all, as someone mentioned, considering if Dragon Quest IX sells even 250,000 in both Europe and America, it'll most likely surpass the sales for Dragon Quest VIII worldwide.  Not that hard, even for an 'overlooked' series in the west.  Especially since this one will finally be marketed.

Last of all, as some people have already said, Nintendo is already going to advertise Dragon Quest IX outside of Japan to quote 'Try to make the series popular like it should be' as stated by Iwata.  Because, lord knows SquareEnix isn't going to bother with it, as they have demonstrated time and time again.  The only effort they're going to put into their marketing outside of Japan is series that begin with 'Final' and end with 'Hearts'.
