The NHK version of the DQ3 Symphonic Suite never got a reprint...except this once. It's thrown on as the opening section to a Gameboy Color OST; or, if you prefer, the Gameboy Color OST was tacked on to the end of an NHK Orchestra reprint. This reprint comes exactly 13 years after the original NHK print from Apollon.
Unfortunately, the Gameboy music doesn't turn out so well. Personally, I would prefer originally Gameboy synth; here, however, we have an artifically "upgraded" sound that actually seems to kill the classic handheld chiptune's sound and replace it with something far more dull and uninteresting.
That said, the only reason I would consider purchasing this album is if a) you want the NHK orchestra recording and b) you are unable to get ahold of the original print from Apollon. Of all the Dragon Quest III albums in existence, this is my least favorite, because the Gameboy music was such a disappointment.
