Forums - Gaming - The PS4 might be killing its first dev soon.

fluky-nintendy on 10 December 2014

Just like I've been saying for ages. Japanese market no longer wants console games and devs are becoming weaker and weaker. We'll see even less Japanese games this generation and only the strongest franchises will survive.



...Let the Sony Domination continue with the PS4...

Nippon Ichi Software (Shinkawa Sohei):If Disgaea 5 doesn't sell as planned then we might not still be in business the year after. Even though Bloodborne is now releasing the same day, we really hope people will pick up both titles at once.

Good.  NIS is a terrible developer.  About time they stop making games.

Hopefully Compile Heart is next.

I knew I hated you for a reason =P

But seriously these guys have made a few games in a row that have sold quite poorly. Theyve really struggled to find anything outside of Disgaea that can sell and so of course they need Disgaea to sell to stay afloat. Also 150k seems odd, are they talking Japan only here?? Because thats asking a bit.

I'm a bit confused as well if they're talking about WW sales or just Japan beacuse 150k WW is easily doable, whereas 150k just in Japan is almost impossible.

How is the PS4 killing this Dev? Blame the terrible management at NIS and it is development of niche RPG's that cater to a tiny amount of the market.

Have they considered moving the game a couple of weeks away from Bloodborne?



Frogger on 10 December 2014

Then don't release your game on the same day as something like Bloodborn. There are 364 other days you could release your game in 2015. Choose another one.

Is Disgaea 5 will be released on vita too? because i'm planning to buy the vita version instead of PS4. This series is more suited for handheld than consoles for me.

EDIT: retracted. i just found out it will only release on PS4.....oh well.

i'll buy it for my PS4 then
