[edit] Known Glitches

Should there be a bit in here about glitches? The GBC version had a big one concerning the Pachisi track, which can cause major issues. 69.175.87.236 01:20, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NES is different from Game Boy remake

I think that more differences between the classes on the NES and Game Boy need to be pointed out. I am not familiar with a "Dealer" class, but the NES has a "merchant" class that can obtain extra money from battles and appraise the value of equipment and items. Also, in the NES Dragon Warrior, no single class become a sage without the Book of Satori-- not even jesters. Jesters are the only class that the other classes cannot change class to, but I heard that this was changed in the Game Boy remake. --Rika95 06:11, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] The Map Looks Like Earth

The Plot section is totally redundant and either needs to be revamped or completely rewritten. The paragraphs are just different versions of each other. Also, the "point of fact" about the map looking like Earth will need a cite. I agree that most of it looks similar, but I'm going to need to be convinced about the Asia continent. <~~ That's just me being a dork. Disregard it.--Fuen Fuboo 16:58, 23 August 2007 (UTC)

if theres no complaints, im going to just get rid of that. its wayy too original researchy. Evaunit666 03:41, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

If any can find a reference for this, it will be exceptable to put back in the article. Evaunit666 02:22, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GAC?

Should this article be nominated for Good Article candidate? It seems ready for it; if not, it's still really close to it. Kariteh 17:29, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

You think so? I was going to try and get some more references and stuff, but if you think it'd pass, sure, why not? Evaunit666 02:38, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm thinking its ready. Any suggestions? Evaunit666 02:48, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

It's probably ready. Great work. Kariteh 08:46, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

Rad, thanks. Evaunit666 02:37, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Date

Does anyone know for sure when the original nes Dragon Warrior 3 came out in America? I'm finding like four different dates and I'm not sure which ones right. Evaunit666 05:02, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I think i got it under control. Thanks, Fueny! Evaunit666 02:47, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA on hold

• A few issues to work on before it gets a GA star;
  • There is a citation needed tag in the reception section,
  • There should be a character section citation;
  • Is there any other information on the sound track release?

Let me know how this goes! Judgesurreal777 20:48, 30 August 2007 (UTC)

I added some citations and some more info about the soundtracks and remakes, but I couldnt find a source for where that citation tag was (Ive been looking for awhile now), so i just got rid of the unsourced detail. Evaunit666 03:37, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

• • Congratulations! You met the criteria, it's well referenced, comprehensive, stable, and reasonably well written. Thoughts going foreword for FA status....Mainly, from my experience, focus on more development/reception, and copyediting the article, those are the main sticking points usually. Good luck! Judgesurreal777 04:34, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the support! Evaunit666 04:56, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Localization Differences

I'm surprised there's no section for the localization differences. The American release of Dragon Warrior III included an entire cinematic intro of a warrior fighting a dragon that wasn't in the original Dragon Quest III, for example. Anyone want to add this?--Gocchin 13:40, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Map similar to real world

In the setting section, this observation has been added and deleted and added again a few times. I don't really feel comfortable with it unless we have a source; I won't delete it right now, but I don't like it there. If anyone who wants to keep that info in there, they really need to find a good source to back it up. Evaunit♥666♥ 23:34, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
