I think you guys are missing the point. There is no greater gaming nirvana than playing some Dragon Quest. If you disagree, you're wrong.

The only experiences that come close are playing through the Suikoden series (and rushing through 4) or as Scott said, Secret of Mana with 3 willing players.

I have been replaying through the dragon quest series on my Nexus 7 (the SNES versions translated) and I'm loving it!  Turn on turbo for the grinding parts and REALLY enjoying it again.

The only one I have ever played is the first one.  I had a lot of fun playing through it and almost reached the level cap.  Personally though I think "There's no greater gaming nirvana than playing The Legend Of Zelda.  Especially Ocarina of Time, Link to the Past, Adventure of Link, the original, and, well pretty much all of the other games..."
Currently Playing: Dark Souls: Remastered (Switch)

Agreed, a play through of OoT not only brings back great childhood memories but its art and music and game play come together to create awesomeness
