"Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies" contains special modes that let players share their adventure with others, allowing up to four players to team up via a local wireless connection and experience the fun of tackling challenging monsters and dungeons cooperatively with their own characters. Players can even leave the game active in their backpacks, pockets or purses and still interact with other players via an interactive "Tag Mode." Information about players’ characters can be wirelessly transmitted to others, and treasure maps and customized greetings can be exchanged automatically by players who come within range of one another when their games are set to Tag Mode. Players looking to enjoy a variety of different game activities can take on special side quests. Some of these quests will be earned by progressing through the game, while additional quests will be made available for free download for players with broadband Internet access after the game launches, providing hours of additional content for virtual adventurers to enjoy either on their own or with friends. Some downloadable quests will continue the main storyline of the game, while others offer standalone missions.... (more)(less)

"
Dragon Quest's 9th entry was a pretty solid one though to be honest, I was hoping for it to come to the home consoles much like the 8th one was. It is still the same good old Dragon Quest game though it feels a lot more simpler than usual as it has more focus in its multiplayer. Don't get me wrong, the multiplayer is quite good but it could've gotten a bit more deeper with its RPG elements."

"
A word of warning : The squad members of DQIX have absolutely no personality or dialogue if you're playing single player. You can play local co-op with other people who own the game."
"The entire Dragon Quest series is great, but I really like this one because they fit so much content on such a small, portable DS cart. It's such a shame that this fun game doesn't have an epic storyline or a constant cast of engaging characters."
