Dragon Quest IX: Protectors of the Starry Sky hands-on at Gamespot.

"TOKYO--A cellar, a village, and a shape-shifting girl. All were elements we encountered in our all-too-brief hands-on time with the Nintendo DS's Dragon Quest IV, which is a remake of the original PlayStation game. Square-Enix was showing off the game at its booth on the floor of the 2007 Tokyo Game Show, and we found that, language barrier aside, the game seems to be coming along just fine on the DS.

There were two different parts of the game to play in the floor demo. The first was seemingly the very start of the story; the second featured a party of four characters to control in battle. We started out with the solo adventure, which opens in what appears to be a cellar of some kind. Our hero begins by speaking with another character before eventually making his way aboveground, but not before breaking all of the jars and barrels in the cellar while looking for hidden goodies. Once topside, we began exploring the area surrounding the cellar entrance. We then came upon a bridge and encountered, of all things, a talking frog."
