great news for ps3. Disgaea is definitely belonged to systems selling list.

Joke post?

Don't wanna claim that it is a 'system seller' but these are the numbers for Disgaea games so far:

Disgaea 1: 295,000 in Japan and 122,000 Elsewhere. 

Disgaea 2: 160,000 in Japan and 125,000 Elsewhere. 

So it has sold well in the past. 



Thanks to Blacksaber for the sig!

What i wonder is will they try putting it on the PSN as a downloadable for a cheaper price as the game size for disgea games are about 1.2 gigs. I know this cause i have both disgea games on HD loader for the old ps2 HD.

 the production to make these games aren't so high so they make profit and thats why disgaea get sequals. they are low risk games. If they put the next one on PSN as well as Blu0ray then they can make more money cause they cut out the middle man that is retail. disgaea for 40 on the PSN would be are great example for what other third party dev can do on PS3.



It's listed at full price in the announcement for Japan at least, who knows maybe downloadable or budget game for elsewhere? Can only speculate.

Is there any reason it looks like an N64 game?

I highly doubt the HD crowd is even going to look at this game.

If you were familiar with the series you would know the anwer.

The fans of the series and/or Japanese RPG will look at it.

Complaining about the graphics of this game is like complaining about the graphics of Warioware...

Story is being picked up by game sites now:

Now if only they show me that next Shin Megami Tensei PS3 game and that would really get me going.

 No jokes. Disgaea may not be hyped, but there a still people that like the gameplay. And the system's gotta have something people want to play in order to be justify the purchase.

PS3 is nice, but it still need a crap load of games so people would take a second job to buy it. 

(That second job is slightly joke, but not entirely joke, PS3 is hella expensive) 



Right, I know it's meant to look low tech but is there any reason to put it on the PS3 at full price? I mean it's 2-D for god's sake. Nobody is going to care when they can get MGS4 or Killzone2. Gameplay? I've been lectured AT LENGTH as to how this generation is about HD graphics and not silly things like gameplay. What a waste.

 

Plus I don't know if the fans are going to line up and get it.  I mean, wasn't similar said of Virtua Fighter 5?

Not this again. Did I say this is going to be a big seller? I said this is a game that has a following. Also whoever told you graphics trump gameplay was wrong.

Graphics are great and a huge plus but the core of the game is what matters most.
