Good ol’ self-explanatory news. NIS America has announced that Disgaea 2 will go live on PlayStation Network starting January 22. Players wishing to party like it’s 2006 can do so for the low, low cost of $9.99.
Via Dengeki, Nippon Ichi’s president Sohei Shinkawa stated that Disgaea 5 will have a new setting, and accordingly feature a new cast of characters. This keeps in line with past numbered entries, which have also shifted away from those of previous installments.

With Disgaea D2‘s announcement still warm from the oven, producer Shogo Kozakai released a few general details. As mentioned before, the game follows the original Disgaea and its eccentric core cast, with Laharl again at center stage. D2 will apparently scale back the content somewhat, reacting to fan feedback that Disgaea 4: A Promise Unforgotten was a bit too large.
The team originally considered remaking the original, but eventually settled upon a new story. Kozakai indicated this may be the start of a new subseries, as Disgaea 5 has also been confirmed to be in development. D2 will hit Japanese PS3s on March 20 of next year.

Nippon Ichi has lifted the veil the next entry in the Disgaea series. Previously known as Project: D, the now-titled Disgaea D2 will bring Laharl back to center stage, alongside fellow series icons like Etna and Flonne.
D2 will hit the Playstation 3 in Japan on March 20, 2013. Standard pricing is 7140 yen, with limited editions throwing in an art book, Etna and Flonne figures, and the original soundtrack for 11,340 yen.

Developer Nippon Ichi announced higher than expected earnings forecasts: operating income up to ¥303mil and net income at ¥203mil, up from respective figures of ¥107mil and ¥59mil. The company credited the jump to Disgaea 3: Return selling “higher than expected,” with Disgaea 4 on the PS3 also selling well in North America and Europe.

In a recent earnings report, Nippon Ichi revealed that strong sales of Disgaea 4 helped the company outperform its expectations for the first half of the fiscal year. With a previously forecasted net loss of 10 million yen, the company instead reported net earnings of 122 million. Considerable DLC sales for Disgaea 4 further bolstered these numbers, seemingly unhindered by the PSN outage earlier this year.
In spite of the change in numbers, Nippon Ichi has not adjusted its annual forecast figures, citing aspects of upcoming products that have not been finalized.

Amidst the hubbub of the Tokyo Game Show, Nippon Ichi issued press releases announcing their upcoming titles. On the Disgaea front, Netherworld Unbound is planned for the Android mobile platform this Winter, while Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention will show up on a PS Vita next year. Also appearing in 2012 are Hyperdimension Neptunia Mk 2 (PS3) and Clan of Champions (PS3, 360, and PC).
Howdy-ho, all! Just squeezing in some media before the weekend. Bit tight on time, so without further ado here’s what we have: Class of Heroes 3DS, Disgaea 3: Return, Disgaea 4, Dragon’s Dogma, Fermi Naju 3, and Final Fantasy Type-0. Continue reading ‘Mass Media 08/19/11’ »
Nippon Ichi has confirmed that a port-slash-remake of Disgaea 3 is in the works for the PS Vita. Subtitled Disgaea 3: Return, the game will include all DLC featured in the PS3 version along with two new characters and four new scenarios. There has also been discussion of post-release DLC, though with the system itself not yet released there are few details at this time.
In addition, the company stated that four other games are being developed: an action RPG from the Prinny team, a new title from the Disgaea team, another game from System Prisma (the Cladun people), and a Japanese release of “a 3DS game that was popular overseas.” No platforms were specified.
Return is expected to debut at the Tokyo Game Show in September.

Y’know the annoying thing about importing stuff? I mean, apart from the cost, the language barrier, the hassle of explaining to your credit card company that no, you’re really you and you’re okaying the transaction? Actually wait, that stuff’s annoying too, but it’s the waiting that really gets to me. Oh well. Anyway, on with some media: Atelier Totori, Disgaea 4, Growlanser 4 Overload, Noora to Toki no Koubou, and Theatrhythm Final Fantasy. Continue reading ‘Mass Media 07/25/11’ »

Title says most of it, which makes my job a lot easier. Anyway, care of the official site is the announcement that Disgaea 4 will hit US PS3s in September, and will arrive in Europe sometime in Fall. Additionally, NIS are running a naming contest for an in-game item, skill, and NPC, the details of which can be found this-a-way.
You didn’t think you’d get through this week without some media, did you? If you said no, great. If you said yes, I’m hurt. Deeply. But enough babbling, here’s what we have: Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2, Disgaea 4, Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 2, Final Fantasy III iPod, Final Fantasy IV Complete Collection, Gloria Union, Gungnir: Mayari no Gunshin to Eiyuu Sensou, R.P.G. Mode, Sekai Yuusha, and Tales of Xillia. Have at it!
Capping Sunday off with some media for you, in hopes that you’re not getting hit with still more snow. Also, does anybody else ever imagine fight scenes and chases set to something classic? Like, a guy jumping through a window and doing a parkour bounce off the far wall and landing in a dumpster, but with “Just a Gigolo” by Louis Prima playing in the background? Sometimes I empathize with the guy from Seinfeld who zoned out every time he heard “Desperado”. But I digress.
Today’s media update: Disgaea 4, Dragon Quest Monsters Joker 2, Everyday Messiah, Tales of Xillia, and Tales of the Abyss 3DS. Continue reading ‘Mass Media 02/20/11’ »
How you North American kids handling post-snowpocalyptia today? Got a bit more Disgaea 4 and Tales of Xillia for you. And after this is up, I’m going to take some aspirin and lie down, because helping to move three tons of snow seriously takes the fight out of a person. But I digress.
