Disgaea numbers seem quite low to me so shortly before launch, even when adding up all platforms and versions together. Is the series too niche or how come?

Nippon Ichi Software basically lives off the western sales of their IPs (as well as others sold by NIS America) to survive.

This is totally ironic because when translated, Nippon Ichi Software means "Japan First Software"

I haven't seen NIS with any decent sized hit in Japan in the past 5 years. Even Compile Heart has heathier domestic sales than them.

For instance, the Switch version of Disgaea 5 Complete sold just 5k copies in Japan.

+15 for Monster Hunter Rise in a day, nice. The demo and new trailer seems to have reminded people that it's coming.

bodes well for MHR and Bowser's Fury since NSW sales multiplier is huge.

I think I checked awhile ago, and Disgaea 5 didn't even chart. Only reason Disgaea 6 is charting now is the fall of COMG! and retail sales in general.
