I wouldn't say Disgaea 3 is really "HD budget" though, it still looks on par with Disgaea 1-2 for the most part (and they looked more like PS1 than PS2 games in the first place). They've basically dropped internal PS3 support from the looks of it too, now they're just publishing Gust & Hitmaker games for it while their own teams make PSP games. |
Word. Though Disgaea 3 probably cost them to lose some profits elsewhere. They talked about how they did nothing for a long time just to study the PS3 aritecture.
Seems like they spent a lot of time on it.

And they're blaming the DS for their trying to focus on the PS3.
Gotta love these third parties. Out of ALL the consoles to be complaining about, the DS....Not even the Wii, but the DS. Tha'd be like a company coming out and complaining about the PS2 last gen because their ventures on the XBOX didn't pan out as they hoped.

I can understand why they're frustrated though. They have the same small group of people buying all their games and that group is more or less "Spread to the wind."
They have no clue where it's gone. They started with the PS3 hoping it would be them but then the PS3 stalled.
Hence all the ports after Disgaea 3. I think they're just hoping the ports would be good testers for other systems so they could find where their base has gone.

And that's what I'm saying. They're blaming other companies for 'saturating the market' when they're part of the problem, making a bunch of ports of 10 year old games. Their comments about Nintendo having too high of rolayty costs just seems like an excuse because they couldn't cover their losses for making a bunch of ports that didn't sell as well as they wanted to cover their lackluster PS3 venture.
