That's not such a big surprise as you might think.  Enix always had a stated 
policy of putting Dragon Quest on the most popular console with the biggest 
installed base, so the shift to DS is logical for them.  Post PS2, the DS is 
clearly the most popular gaming device in Japan and around the world.  It's 
also a game whose popularity was never about graphics.
