This is big news for Wii owners who have been starved for some good RPGs. Nippon Ichi is the developer of Disgaea and Phantom Brave which are excellent SRPGs on the PS2, so this news has me really excited for the future.

This could be great!
Hopefully it will spur others to develop more than mini-game collections for the Wii.

I like to jump around, and would lead a fairly serene and aimless existence if it weren't for my friends always getting into trouble. I love to help out, even when it puts me at risk. I seem to make friends with people who just can't stay out of trouble.

Not too much of a surprise. They would have gone bankrupt if they only developed on HD consoles.

Doesn't Nippon Ichi and Majesco and so on usually fall under the group of development and or publishing houses that pace development for the market leading platform.

I'm Unamerica and you can too.

Yeah, I still don't understand why the made Disgaea 3 for the PS3 instead of 2, it's not like the game needed the extra power. Everything else was at the advantage of the PS2, install base, developpement cost, and they were more used to the PS2 architecture. I understand that they need to make the jump to the newer consoles sooner or later, but I think it would've been smarter for them to take the Atlus "wait and see" attitude and release it on a sure console before seeing how the gaming landscape develop and choose the console for the fourth installement accordingly.

Now all the Wii needs is the next Persona game and I'd be the happiest Wii owner in the world :)

Disgaea 3 didn't exactly sell gangbusters (180k as of now) and that is definitely not profitable for work on an HD system.

So besides the handhelds, the Wii is the way to go.
