At this point, it's unlikely for DQVII to come out here. The localization process is just too much for Square to care about. You're best bet is to either import a Japanese 3DS + DQVII or just play the original PS1 version.

Couldn't Nintendo take care of the localization and publication processes? I'm sure the only thing SE would have to do is translate the game (even to english only, just like Atlus) and ask Nintendo to bring the game to the west. Just how expensive is a localization? It seems to be a bigger deal than I initially thought.

Square doesn't want to go through all this because of costs and manpower. They're also doubting the profit that the game would bring in the West.
