Also, interesting quote from NISA: "“NISA is known for publishing niche JRPGs like Disgaea, but now we're shifting the system towards visual novels after the success of Danganronpa.”" |
I imagine they're cheap to do, as there's far less than programming required to insert the localized text. What matters more is that the game is good and fun to play. That's why DanganRonpa sold well, not because it was a visual novel.
