Here's what I'd say:

My favorite DQ game is probably still part 3, and of the NES and gbc versions I've played I liked the gbc version better. This can only be played on a Gameboy Color or Gameboy Advance / SP though (backwards compatible w/ the gbc cart). You can also play the gbc remakes of DQ1 & 2 on this, though the games have been slightly "dumbed down" and made easier. For part 2 this is probably a good thing since the NES version is hard as hell. If you do decide to grab a GBA SP I would highly recommend looking into an AGS-101 model which has a backlight and is superior to the normal model. The graphics really pop!

Here is the 101 model that I bought from Amazon (my review is even on here). The Onyx / black one wasn't normally available like this, it's a regular SP shell with the guts of a 101. That being said, it looks and plays perfectly:

The other 101 that I've seen for sale before is a light blue metallic color which I didn't like as much.

The games you can play on the DS are many: 4, 5, 6, & 9. This is the only way to play part 9 that I know of. Like part 3 you can form a team of different classes however you want which is something that I personally like. The class system is really well-done. Also the post game is incredible and virtually endless. My save file on DQ9 is approx. 600 hours.

Now all of these DS games can of course be played on a 3DS, which opens you up to the remakes of DQ7 and DQ8. DQ7 is beloved by many here, but I never cared for it (though I gave it LOTS of plays because I really wanted to.) The 3DS version of 8 however I'd consider to be the definitive version and it's excellent.
