Trivia

One of the reasons for the extreme popularity of Dragon Quest series, particularly during its early beginnings in Japan, was the high quality manga-like illustration work done in the game by Akira Toriyama, one of the most popular manga artists of all time. Toriyama is most widely known for his martial arts epic Dragon Ball but has also worked on games like Chrono Trigger and Tobal No.1.

The North American version of the game has been improved. It contains new voice acting, new animations, enhanced music and sound effects, additional spells and attacks, and a new menu interface. It is also the first game in the Dragon Quest series to bear the Dragon Quest name (rather than Dragon Warrior) in North America. The North American version also became famous for shipping with a playable demo disc of Final Fantasy XII.
