The DS remakes for Dragon Quests IV-VI are the best remakes I have ever played; my only quarrel over changes is that the DS version of IV allows you to control your party, where on the NES you had to tactically predict their moves. To balance this change, monsters stats and items abilities were changed to better suit full control rather than partial control... :(
Most people prefer this change, but personally I liked the forced lack of control...
Dragon Quest IV's battle system still requires a lot of planning and thinking, with every character being unique as they are, but it just doesn't shine like it did on the NES (the NES version has the best battle gameplay in the whole series :D). Oh well, I can always go and play my NES version whenever I feel like it.
Also, they announced all three for the West at the same time, but Dragon Quest VI has yet to get a release date.
