15 years after its intial release, its finally here!. Dragon Quest VI was first released in December 1995 for the Super Famicom.
It is the third and final entry in the Zenithia trilogy, which includes 4, 5, and 6. However, you don't need to have played any of the previous
entries to enjoy this game. Players who have will recognize some themes or places. This DS version marks the game's first
release outside of Japan.
Here are a few things new in the remake (courtesy of our friend Segata's DQVI import thread):
Dragon Quest VI brings back the job systems found in parts 3, 7, and 9. It is my understanding that the job system is very close to the one found in 7.
Some of the vocations available are (courtesy of the website):
Warrior
With strenght and well-rounded skills, anyone who takes up the
path of the warrior will be indispensiable in battle.
Martial Artist
A rare combination of great strenght and speed allow
martial artist to strike hard and fast.
Mage
Take up this vocation to learn offensive magic, Elemental spells
such as Frizzle can make foes crash and burn.
Preist
Immensely helpful to any adventuring party, the way of
the Priest brings with it healing and status-boosting magic.
Dancer
The Skills of a dancer translate surprisingly well in battle.
High agility and status affecting dance moves are part of any
good dancer's repertoire
Thief
The speedy and nimble Theif has a variety of ways to
make the party's life "richer." Take up this vocation and find out how.

Here are a few things new in the remake (courtesy of our friend Segata's DQVI import thread):
Segata Sanshiro said:- Beastmaster can no longer recruit monsters. Instead, they have a new monster-oriented skillset and you can recruit various slime enemies through events now.
- They added a new touchscreen minigame, Slime Curling (HOOOOOOOLLLLYYYY SHIIIIIIIT!! - Smilin' Segs).
- It has the "chance encounter" system that's been in all of the other DS DQ games, which allows you to share your dreams with other players.
