Cristal Chronicle is looking great ... so is NG : DS . The only downside are the tons of SE ports ... I wish there would be less , and higher quality ones ...

Tons? There are 4. 3 of them are the Castle in the Sky trilogy which fans have been demanding be remade on one system for a decade, and one of them is Final Fantasy IV, which is one of the most popular FF games. How are those not high quality?

The Square Enix games on the DS constitute some of their biggest games this generation, and completely dwarf their efforts on all the other systems, including the PSP. The only possible exception to that would be the PS3 with FFXIII, but DQIX is the bigger seller in Japan, and has gotten just as much dev time as FFXIII.

Anyway, added a few more games. Bangai-O, Spore, and Flower, Sun, and Rain.

 @Naznatips:  I've noticed the Dev time on DQ9 is exceptionally long compared to the superb ports SE has done with the older FF and DQ games.  Either they've completed DQ9 and sitting it on the shelf till they've got the ports done as well or this game is getting polished like you wouldn't believe.  Considering the ports have been very high quality. What should we expect from DQ9?

I honestly don't know what they could improve over the ported games to DQ9 on the DS.  It'll be something to watch for sure...
