Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies Guides and Walkthroughs
Dragon Quest IX: Sentinels of the Starry Skies is a role-playing video game developed by Level-5 for the Nintendo DS. Dragon Quest IX introduced local multiplayer functionality to the series, as well as limited compatibility with Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. It was also the first to be initially released for a handheld game console and the first to feature spawning of enemies, rather than random encounters.
The game retains many of the series' traditional role-playing elements, such as turn-based combat and a level system based on gaining experience points. The game was designed to be the most difficult one in the series and was released in Japan by Square Enix in July 2009, and worldwide by Nintendo in July 2010.

Dragon Quest 9 Full Walkthrough
Compared to the other Dragon Quest games in the series, this one is extremely short and they expect you to spend more time on the Side Quests rather than the actual story. There is a bunch of post game content but it's extremely repetative stuff that I can't imagine many people actually do (there are very few guides for it online when I looked).

There are a total of 180 or so sidequests in this game - however if you're emulating the game in order to unlock the remaining 60 side quests you'll need to use a cheat.
