    So, is this a direct port of the PSP port, except with downgraded graphic?

    I have never played Disgaea, but I would like to start

    Then if you have a DS, pick up TWEWY.

    NIS, you made an extraordinary game once, now get back to making more. Port-itis is leaving a really bitter taste in people's mouths (as is the PS3 jump).

    I like port-itis.

    It increases the chances we'll see a port of Disgaea 3 on a sub-$Texas system.

    And yes I am buying this because I do not own a PSP and touchscreen controls on an SRPG = win.

    So...

    -One new character playable. Whoop-de-do.
    -New opening movie. See above
    -Cameo characters. Unless these are brand brand new, these were in the PSP port as well. Neat, but pretty underwhelming.
    -New Multiplayer modes. Rendered moot as I will never find another person near me with the game willing to play.
    -Prinny commentary. Sounds cool, dood.

    Think I'll pass. I already own the PSP version, so there's nothing worth paying a 30-40 dollar price yet again. Great for people who don't already have the game though.

    The silly thing is that the people who would like Plenair the most (hardcore fans) are the same people who realize that the "story" characters have worse stat growth than the player-created ones.

    I'm loving the PSP one, mostly due to the widescreen and the pick up & play aspect. The things that were "fixed" in Disgaea 2 aren't being added in, so it's just adding a couple sprites with set stats, and the Prinny commentary actually has me worried -- it likely means they don't have enough space for all of the voice acting, and are dropping it (and adding in some Prinny commentary).

    edited to add: and damn, those screens are UGLY.

    I might give this a shot, even though I just got the PS2 one from Goozex a while ago. It still goes for like 750 points, so if the DS one is comparable quality that's like free money for more games.

    Like I need more games. D:

    Are we supposed to believe that buying these ports are going to give them the confidence to do an original RPG on the DS? Or are they too beholden to Sony, just cashing in and have no real intent to do so?

    The Capcom style testing of the userbase is not very cool.

    Heres what I'm going to do. If the only new developments on the table in Japan when these hits the states are still on Sony platforms, I wont buy any of their DS games. An original DS or Wii RPG announcement and I'll make purchases at retail the following day, right down to Puchi Puchi Virus.

    You need a bat too mate.

    Hint. Do you own Disgaea on any system?

    Then this port isn't directed at you. Your purchase won't change any statistic gathering they do in any signifcant way. Direct attention elsewhere, apply motivation gained through rage to something useful.

    Or at least don't sound so bloody self important when you vent. :P You talk like your purchase would swing further development on the DS man.

    No. If the statistics discounts people who already own the game on another system, as it should for a new market, your choice either way never gets taken into account other than "hey, that's a nice surprise".

    You'd think with my Nintendo bias and my love for new ideas I'd be right there with DMK's protest, but I'm not.

    NI likes to hang out with Sony. Sony has treated them well in the past, so they stick to those systems. Sure they are branching out for some quick cash in ports on the DS, but so what? You get a couple of titles from years past, except portable with a few new features. Plus now there is a chance for people who missed them the first time because of rarity or console choice to have another bite at the apple.

    Maybe they'll decide to do something original on the Wii/DS, but I really doubt it. I'd be plenty happy if this lead to La Pucelle on the DS though, as I'd love to have an uncensored version of that brought over to the states.

    In that case, they are still missing my purchase of Soul Nomad and GrimGrimoire. I dropped my support entirely when they moved to PS3. I'm still waiting to buy these 2 games.

    I had the JPN release at one point, I think I sold it to some nerd who had just caught the N1 bug from beating Disgaea for big bucks though.

    I also sold the Mastiff Version for more than I paid for it.

    I'm pretty interested in the Rhapsody news though a DS Disgaea isn't bad either for those who didn't play it or is giving in to those new extras.

    N1 still has yet to show what that action game they have for the DS is so there might be some hope for a new IP of sorts. I'm not sure if they have any action games they could port. I know they're mostly a Sony hardware focused group so I kind of doubt it but hey who knows.
