Oh god, I hope not.  Everything Genius Sonority has done is a travesty compared to the original games.  The 3D Pokemon games they worked on are some of the worst Pokemon games in existance.  And while Drago nQuest Swords was marginally fun, I attribute that more to the fact that Yuji Horii has a firm grip on design and production of every Dragon Quest game.  And even then, the game is probably one of the weaker in the series.

If anyone should remake DQVII, it should be ArtePiazza, since they were the original developers of the game and did the remakes for DQIV-VI on DS.  But again, I don't think DQVII will get a remake.  Its probably the biggest DQ ever made.  Even compared to DQVIII and IX.

Er, Arte Piazza only did support work on DQVII originally.  It's core developer was Heartbeat, who dissolved and most of the staff went on to form Genius Sonority.  That's why them doing a DQVII makes so much sense, they literally are the original team.

I won't disagree GS's previous efforts have been spotty, but I think Horii would have pretty tight control on a DQVII remake.  Arte Piazza could still be involved too, and 8ing's Wii engine (powering both DQ Swords and Battle Road Victory) is fantastic.
