Multiplayer in DS version of Disgaea

Recently, an interviewer from CrispyGamer got a chance to sit down with Jack Niidan, PR manager of NIS america, to talk about the much anticipated release of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness. Since Disgaea: Hour of Darkness was announced for the DS many fans have been wondering what will make the game different from the PSP version. Niidan touches on that in this interview, and even talks about the possibility of bringing Disgaea 2 to the DS.

The main feature of Disgaea DS is the multi-player mode. Fans that are tired of the original can still get a kick out of this game by destroying their buddy's Laharl and Etna.

Yes, thats right, now you and your friends may battle it out using your favorite characters from Disgaea. Wifi support hasn't been confirmed, but I'm sure we will get more details in the coming months. The game will also include a unique Battle feature that makes use of the DS's touch screen. Fans may also be relieved to hear that the DS version will retain all the content from the PSP version, but with extra content.

Disgaea On the DS Confirmed

Really not much to say here, but the latest issue of Famitsu magazine has Nippon Ichi confirming that a Disgaea game will be coming to the Nintendo DS and will be titled (roughly translated title) Disgaea DS: Prince of the Demon World and the Red Moon.

That's all she wrote folks, there's no screens, no press release info, no shocking gameplay change updates. Just a title and a little bit of optimism.

Disgaea 3 coming to America

I called it, Disgaea 3 is coming to North America. Today NIS announced that Disgaea 3 will be hitting store shelves sometime in August 2008,"and makes a bold new step towards the next generation console with a whole new cast, story and game system." Disgaea 3 has new features, such as the ability to alter terrain during battles, enabling players to reach enemies they wouldn't normally be able to reach.

No other major details have been released at this point, but I'm sure we'll be seeing plenty of screenshots and videos in the coming months.

Disgaea 3 released!

Disgaea 3, was released today in japan. Nippon Ichi held a release day event at Akihabara's Messe Sanoh game store in Tokyo. Customers were able to enter a drawing contest, where they could win prizes which varied from, a small Disgaea flag signed by a member of the voice cast, a Disgaea wooden cup and a promotional DVD.

Disgaea 3 has yet to be announced for release for anywhere else, but I remain optimistic it will ship out by next year.


For those of you who don't know, Disgaea is a 2d SRPG series developed by Nippon Ichi and published by Altus. The series has many features that set it apart from other games in the genre, such as the ability to lift and throw characters across the map. This makes it possible to force enemies to keep their distance. You can also capture enemy monsters by throwing them inside your base panel.

The game also features multiple storyline endings, over 200 hours of gameplay and a 9999 level cap(yea.. say goodbye to your social life).

If your a fan of anime and RPGs, I definately reccomend checking the series out.
