The ports ([[GBC]] and [[SNES]]) of Dragon Warrior III differ in graphics. The GBC version also has Monster Medals, which the SNES version does not. Various class, item, and enemy names differ between all three versions.
There are currently four versions of Dragon Warrior III: [[NES]], [[GBC]], [[SNES]], and [[Mobile]]. All four have different graphics, though the Mobile version used the SNES version as its foundation. The ports have exclusive features. Various class, item, and enemy names differ between all four versions. The maps of buildings and dungeons vary in graphics and minor layout changes (e.g. how long a hallway is). All staircases, doorways, etc. are located in the same areas.
