NIS Wants Disgaea on DS in North America
« on: October 05, 2007, 02:20:15 PM »
Exploding penguins on the DS? Hey, it could happen.
 http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/newsArt.cfm?artid=14529

 NIS hopes that its bizarre Disgaea strategy RPG series, as well as other NIS properties, will eventually hit the DS and Wii. NIS America's Phoenix Spaulding seemed hopeful, anyway:      "Back at Anime Expo, NIS Japan made a very brief mention about Disgaea on the DS. As far as I know, that's still planned, and I know they're at least looking at the others, like Wii, and maybe some other DS titles. I hope they do because so many of our fans, they're all DS kids. It really just makes sense to at least try it."      


   Disgaea has a small but vocal following.  The game features a chewy strategic center with suicidal exploding penguin glaze. Thus far, the series has been exclusive to Sony's machines. Spaulding notes that the DS game is "ready to go" in Japan, but its American fate is still unknown.

This would be my PSN Trophy Card, but I guess I can't post HTML in my Signature. I'm the pixel spaceship, and I have nine Gold trophies.

Wait...so will it be an entirely new franchise, or just porting Disgaea 1 like they did to the PSP, albeit with an entirely new story added on, but still...

I think I'm gonna go ahead and the PSP version anyways, but I would ecstatic if they released an entirely new game for a Nintendo system, DS or Wii.

How did I miss this news item?  Any NIS support on Nintendo systems would be cool.  I'll all for this.  Plus they always make strategy RPGs which touchscreen controls work quite well for.

I dusted off my PS2 just to play Disgeia 2. So any DS support would be great.
Stupidity is lost on my. Then again I'm almost always lost.
