From the folks at Gamebrink comes this Dragon Quest IX footage from this morning's press conference, showcasing the action-RPG style and cooperative play.


The game promises four-player co-operative play and Nintendo Wi-Fi service functionality. Said a Square-Enix spokesperson: "By taking full advantage of Nintendo DS' wireless communication capability, we have fulfilled the thrill of [the] "network experience" -- embarking on adventures with real 'friends' instead of on your own."

The game hits Japan in mid-2007.
