  Heading:	<a href="http://squarehaven.com/news/2007/08/27/Square-Enix-delays-Dragon-Quest-IX-quality-issues-cited/">Square Enix delays Dragon Quest IX; quality issues cited</a><br/>Square Enix announced today that the release of the anticipated Dragon Quest IX would be shifted to 2008 in Japan from a previous listing of late 2007. The reason? Apparently, quality improvements are the cause of Level 5's development delay. While this news is no doubt unfortunate for fans of the series, it also means that Square Enix is willing to sacrifice time for a quality product. If such a behavior pays off in sales and eventually becomes policy, it could mean a new vitality amidst some lately-mediocre titles.
