its a low budget game which will sell reasonable well, it will make a good profit.

 

Honestly...HOW?

Nippon Ichi games appeal to a very niche part of the RPG market. A market that's currently as non-existent on the PS3 as the rest of the userbase. I don't really understand NIS's decision to hop on PS3 so soon (or at all). The people that tend to buy their games currently have no reason to own a PS3 before this comes out, and judging by the screens, it's not doing anything the PS2 couldn't already do. This seems to be the result of either blind loyalty or getting caught up in the next gen hype. Disgaea 3 is destined to rake in less than the already modest sales of its predecessors at this rate.

 

 It's good cause it will convince loyal fans to get a PS3 to play the game and it will sell to the PS3 owners because there aren't many Japanese RPG games yet.

Okay, but the 9 or 10 people that pick up a PS3 just for Disgaea aren't doing much for the PS3 or the RPG market.
