Dragon Quest III was a momentous game in 1988. It rounds out the trilogy very nicely and the SFC remake is an excellent rendition.
In 1988, DQIII outsold and outscored Super Mario Bros. 3 on the Japanese charts, but despite that, it doesn’t have the same legacy; many consider SMB3 to be the greatest game of all time. I can see that. But the bottom line is: I would just rather hang out in the world of DQIII than in the Mushroom Kingdom, and sometimes, a videogame is just about hanging out.
