rumor in question and shareholder report in question: jin115.com
Good, Nintendo should buy them.
They make niche, fairly low budget Japanese games, right? How did they manage to fuck up so badly, not even Idea Factory, Compile Heart, or even companies like Marvelous messed up this badly.
Fuck Forward Works! What a lousy mobile studio Sony made and their incompetence screwed over NIS badly.
Hopefully KT does.
How do you even fuck up a mobage?
Fuck snoy, they are pure evil.
I wish this means NISA dies too. NIS is great but I won't feel as bad if they take their bastard English branch with them.
These guys have been bleeding money for ages, not a surprise
Honestly, NIS and their games are kinda beneath Nintendo. They probably wouldn't want them even for free, and I say this as a NISfag. I love NIS and their games, but Nintendo is too far above the heavens to even notice the death of a little ant in the mortal plane of videogames.
apparently by having terrible server capacity and leaving in dev mode/free maxed units
Oh well, loved the psp games muh dudes
Is this the gacha that shut down in a few hours i've been hearing about? Jesus fucking christ, how about one fucking day of testing (???)
The mobile game was a complete mess on the first day to the point where they needed shut it all down still in the first week and postponed it to a relaunch in fall. Oh, and all the money players wasted on said week won't carry over because they are deleting everyone's account. FW screwed them over, and now NIS are paying up whatever money they have left to fix it.
You give it to ForwardWorks
Please no, NIS is already terrible about DLC jewing, KT are one of few companies that could make them even worse.
From launch day it was down for like two weeks and they publicly blamed overseas people trying to play the game for it instead of their poor server management.
How do we stop snoy from destroying everything good?
What about Disgaea 6?
Disgaea stopped being good after first one
Disgaea 4 complete+ will save them don't worry.
But muh bunny gril
Doesn't sound like they're going to make it to the Fall...
I can't see them "dying" since their IPs are popular, if niche. Some third party might snap them up though. Maybe someone like Sega - Hopefully not a chinese company, I'm not sure if a western company would put the money down for a niche japanese publisher/devloper.
Worst character in a game full of terrible characters.
The game fucked up from the very beginning.
Game server shat itself and it went on series of maintenance for like couple of weeks with like less than 15 hours of up time.
The nips mocked them up endlessly on their official twitter. Few of the maintenance announcement tweet managed to garner about 500+ replies. At this point NIS stock start falling at quite alarming rate.
After that, Forward Works announced that the game will be taken down "temporary" for a massive infrastructure fix, although this will need at VERY LEAST 3 months and will result in payer data reset, this obviously includes used paid currency which further upset more people.
Microsoft gonna swoop in and get their foot in the Japaneses market
or Epic
Cancer taste.
Right now I am doubtful that anything they have planned will release. I would like to think they will.
like 90% of the IP is art, why bother with the company as a whole when you can just poach the artists?
she cute tho
Sure, but she's not even the cutest loli in the game. Majorita is way better.
>no Soul Nomad for PC
That's fair. Majorita is top cute.
I used to like their autist games, but it just got tiring.
so many keks would be had when people realize a burger company is running a waifu shill fest
why would Nisa die? THey will just continue as normal, except there won't be Disgaea games to work on.
In a different timeline, Game Freak would be in this position instead.
So they'll eventually die?
It would be nice if Epic bought them.
So I could spread rumors that their ownership of Etna is tacit support of pedos.
WE ARE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE
>Phil Spencer has expressed interest in buying a Japanese studio
Between NIS and Doublefine and Ninja Theory
Is Microsoft forging a League of Losers?
NISA has been treating us Nintendo fans great though.
Then they should buy Acquire and have them revive WoTS while on it!
Well boo-hoo, poor whales who bought into kusoge bait, should've went for something safe like fgo, feh or duel links
NIS have been pumping out garbage for years now, who even cares at this point
Didn't nisa openly talk shit about Sony for not promoting their games well enough?
Uncle Phil is only interested in failing indies that aren't laden with debt, Xtranny.
Good.
NiS is so niche that it's even considered niche IN JAPAN
Literally the only way they could become even MORE niche is by becoming exclusive to fucking Xbox and Windows 10
Quite unfortunate that they only produce shovelware whenever they're not making Disgaea.
Etna is a demon tho
Philshills should be drowned in their own shit
>Announces fuck all at E3
>Goes cockteasing straight afterwards to keep Xcucks off the ledge
Every single fucking year
Based NISA talked shit about Sony on SNK Heroines game but the topic escapes me right now. They are too based man.
He singlehandedly saved Phantasy Star on the west.
Why should I care? I might as well spread misinformation. Epic keeps fucking with me, might as well fuck back.
>rumors
Please dont die NIS
I need Labyrinth of Galleria to come out
>Sony killed NIS
What the fuck, I love Sony now?
this, not only are you spending on a gacha game, you didnt even choose one that you know will stick around
gachas start and die every month in japan, and yet they still spent money on a barely functional one, fucking jabaited kek, no sympathy
>saved
By giving us the worst game in the series? Sega would've localized PS themselves if they made a new one that didn't suck.
Dilate.
>Literally a golden parachute
Yeah, company's fucked.
>Singlehandedly
>Only releasing in NA
He half-assed it because he has no money, as usual.
>liking NIS, a company that hasn't made anything good in years
>not wanting NISA to potentially die with them
Thats what happens when your games suck and rely only on waifubaiting.
Serves them right.
They deserve to die after what happened to Ys VIII, fuck them.
But didn't you like it how they appealed to 4channers by using roody poo and candy ass?
but it's still not okay if the players don't get refunded, i mean really if that's the case it's just completely inexcusable
>not liking NIS
>hating on NISA
Go back to retardera.
>Caring about japanese whales
>liking NIS
>defending NISA for every fuckups they did
You should go back.
NIS and Nintendo don't really mesh, their latest Labyrinth game isn't even coming to Switch, it's coming to Vita, but not Switch, that should say a lot about them. Nintendo realistically have nothing to gain from a buyout. Personally I see a buyout by a company like DeNa, Gungho, some japanese publisher focused on phone games, or a Chinese company looking to acquire the IP they've been apeing.
NISA has been good to Nintendo fans so eat a dick, snoy tranny.
Well the mobile game company that fucked everything up is a Playstation subsidiary.
That's what I'm saying dude, dumb nip neets don't deserve empathy for wasting money
I don't know if it is, what does the TOS say?
>suddenly resorting in console war out of the ass
Says alot about you bunch.
Yeah, those overpriced ports sure are great.
>Check Atelier Lulua DLC
>3 fucking Season Passes where 2 are $30 and 1 for $22 so its $82 altogether
>Instead of doing 1 Season Pass that covers everything for $30
What the fuck KT? Do you idiots want governments to crack down on you for this kind of shit? Just stick to ONE Season Pass that covers everything and that is it!
evil gaijin crashing our server its their fault
He's a NISA apologist, fuck him
They can't die until all 5 Disgaea games + the prinny ones are on Switch along with D6
Dilate.
Stop being poor.
Sony sabotaged their mobile game because NIS shittalked them in the open.
>NISA has been good to Nintendo fans
I hope they brick your console.
Cope.
Hope you love your bricked switch.
There's also other DLC not included in the season passes.
Clearly it's time for Valve to swoop in and get more exclusives. Maybe we'll get a cute isometric counterstrike game or skins for DOTA
They don't even gotta refund them just give them the currency back the developers can just enter a number it's not like gacha shit is real money. How stupid can one company be to just delete their accounts and give them nothing
I hope its going to happen. Beta-testing two of their games ended up being the worst experience with them and their higher ups.
NISA's always been fucking awful and the only reason anybody pretends to like them is because XSeed dropped the ball hard
literally the douche and turd choice
NIS treats their employees like shit so there's plenty of reason to hate them too
Switch isn't an engineering nightmare like ps3, nothing NISA does will hurt anyones Switch. Dilate trannies.
Who cares? They bring games to Switch, they are good.
Enjoy your low quality games with low quality ports and low quality translations I guess.
Cope.
Sure, I'll help you dilate while you play buggy localized games, user.
??
The days of Hour of Darkness, La Pucelle, Phantom Brave, Soul Nomad, GrimGrimoire, and Z.H.P are long gone.
It is time for them to go.
Guys, please give your energy to Compile Heart as they also are working with FW to make a Neptunia gacha game. I don't want the sony Grim Reaper to hit them.
I suppose everyone has to start liking Nicalis, then
>defending a localization company that constantly censors their games for no reason and introduce bugs
You're not fooling anyone.
Hopefully when they die a whole bunch of srpgs will get made trying to chase the Disgaea audience and enough of them will be good enough to keep that content coming.
I love Z.H.P. and still bummed that they never make a sequel for that game.
As long as they don't shittalk Sony the game will be fine.
NINTENDO
BUY
THIS
MAN
Maybe this is who Microsoft was talking about buying a JP dev.
>Squenix announced a new Final Fantasy Tactics at E3
>actually looks pretty good, decent production values
>it's a fucking mobile game
I'm so fucking angry.
isn't there already a gacha game for nep?
False alarm
twitter.com
They raise a good point. Their stock is much higher than it was during the doomsday of preDisgaea 4
They are pretty good now. Who cares of some nobody games got censored ages ago.
I knew it'd be fine. So who here /curry/?
We ran into a lot of issues trying to fix the shitshow that was the pc version of D5. The higher ups started doing their own shit ignoring our attempts at fixing everything. We still dont know why they cut the online stuff and not even the employees knew what was going on during it. They just wanted the money at that point.
All they make are nobody games now.
Not at all. Nintendo would fucking bomb this.
I would believe it. There is such huge incompetence in the company.
thank fuck. i need more disgaea lolis
What PC port of their games that doesn't have a lot of issues? lol.
Good thing they gave away full games for free, serve them right.
correction:
>disgaea's story stopped being (as) good after the first one.
every game has been better and a direct upgrade from the previous installment.
Make a mainline game then i would be okay with paying for your shit
>every game has been better and a direct upgrade from the previous installment.
the 5th game was so self serious even though it have a shit story.
I unironly wished NIS to expand into mobile because of all the assets they had from developing the disgaea games. (models, characters, game systems, animations) But I had not expected them to fuck up so hard.
damn monkey paw.
>labyrinth of refrain was done and ready 2 hours before release
>the higher ups push a random-ass patch that broke everything 2 minutes after release
>only pirates got fucked by it
Yeah I dont know how they do it.
I wish NISA fucking died instead
That isn't a Nep game(MegaMira is already out and doing pretty well) and if Sony were to fuck this one up... well they'll have to answer to Tezuka productions as well and I don't think pissing off the people who own such high profile classic IPs is a good idea.
Also CH are fine, Azur Lane's preorders are going so well they told people to slow down on ordering CEs since they started getting too many orders too quickly, they'll likely need to order more or something. They have nothing to worry about and if Sony tries shit, there's nothing a switch port can't fix.
Why are pirated the only one that got fucked?
You should see what they're doing with DW9. 3 season passes for a game everyone hates, all of which contain nothing but weapons they removed in order to release the game earlier.
They ended up getting the faulty patch and they had to wait for an updated version which came out a month or so later
Why didn't they just give up on the mobile game and blame FW
>NISA confirming Disgaea 4 Complete coming to Switch
>NIS posting the results of the DRPG poll and generally updating the twitter again (dengekionline.com
The hell is going on? Every time I see them say something I'm confused because I expect them to die any minute now.
I'm a diehard Disgaeafag, this isn't easy for me to watch. Disgaea is how I met my group of friends who are like family to me.
You're confusing NIS and NISA.
If only they lived in Japan lmao
>NISA going to keep alive
>NIS (the good part) going to die
What is it with life and its continuous tendency to always get worse?
It can't have always been like this right?
who gave you permission to post my wife?
At least they'll never hook Uli again.
Wait they actually released a game? Last I heard they were running beta tests for Everybody's Golf mobile that never really went anywhere. To think the Vita died for this
NISA is a subsidiary of NIS
NIS collects the stock dividends from NISA and controls them through owning 100% stock, but otherwise is its own entity.
Why do people think that the mobile game is potentially sinking them. Listen, ANY company has one number one priority: do what you can to stay in business. I guarantee when FW was contracted to work on the Disgaea mobile game, there would have been an insurance clause in their contract stating that if they fucked up and did not deliver on the services procured, they would be held liable for all of it - that they would incur all of the costs.
The mobile game may be sunk, and goodwill with fans has suffered (especially if NIS wants to do more mobile games), but NIS is not stupid - the mobile game has not bankrupt them. It is just common sense that they would have a protection clause in their contract.
If for godforsaken reason they do not, then they deserve bankruptcy. End of story.
Yeah there's a few now and some have already run their course.
Everybody Golf
Arc the Lad
Wild Arms
Gon Gero?
Disgaea is listed as an active title
.
forwardworks.com
The one anime girl game that was on constant loop on one of the Japanese streams seems to have been discontinued.
I don't care that much for SPRGS but the Disgaea series is without a doubt, quality. I just bought a used Switch to play D1, D5 and D4 when that releases. I really hope they're able to sort this shit out, gonna pre-order D4 to help.
what's their deal and what else have they done?
Should I wait until Disgaea 4 complete or just buy the original PS3 version for like $20?
Supposedly the switch version has extra stuff on top of being the complete version, but during the "surprise stream" they did they never really went into them saying it's too early to say.
ForwardWorks is a studio under Sony Interactive Entertainment dedicated to creating mobile games that was started back in 2016 when the Vita began losing steam in Japan. Their original plan was to focus solely on PlayStation IP like LittleBigPlanet or Everybody's Golf, but partnerships are more lucrative
Depends, the Switch version is gonna have all the DLC and potentially some other nice additions, whether or not that's worth it to you, as well as supporting NISA is up to you.
Disgaea complete will have all the dlc, and will most likely be discounted at $50.
Also depends on if you like portability or not.

Damn shame about Disgaea and the other series they have, but the company itself has been shit for a long time.
I'd prefer Sega
i didnt even realize disgaea mobile was a thing
I've seen them. I just remember him being more of a typical neckbeard.
>All of those games the are under maintenance.
Hos do you have trouble Making a mobile game?
>They are pretty good now.
Ys 8 was one year ago.
> guarantee when FW was contracted to work on the Disgaea mobile game, there would have been an insurance clause in their contract stating that if they fucked up and did not deliver on the services procured, they would be held liable for all of it - that they would incur all of the costs.
Not how Japanese businesses operate apparently. The VN company Light went bankrupt a few months ago after the second developer on their mobage failed to deliver.
Haha, that's our James!
Why would I give CH any energy when they've made nothing but kusoge for their entire existence? NIS might be DLC jews but at least they've made great games in the past and continue to make decent games today.
At least here it's really Sony (SIE)
NIS is all about Disgaea anyways, they don't make much more than that, I like da grindan game too but they need to do more stuff.
>I guarantee when FW was contracted to work on the Disgaea mobile game, there would have been an insurance clause in their contract stating that if they fucked up and did not deliver on the services procured, they would be held liable for all of it - that they would incur all of the costs.

>but NIS is not stupid
>but NIS is not stupid
I love NIS, but come on. They were always one of the most stupid companies, they did many dumb shit like fucking up Disgaea 5's PC launch.
There was a Disgaea mobile game?
mobile games are cuthroat as fuck. plenty of them die before reaching 1 year. hell only a handfull have lasted more than 5.
for every 1 success theres gotta be like 1000 failures.
>it's coming to Vita, but not Switch
Related, is the first one good? I love the art and I like the idea but not sure if it's worth getting.
If you buy the PS3 version you'll be paying another $60 for the on-disc DLC.
you're going to get another port of Disgaea 4 with nothing new and like it
SARDINES LOL
They invested a stupid amount of money in a mobile game, they fucked up making a mobile game out all things where investment is minimal and profit is huge.
You act like mobile games arent the cheapest shit to make.
I don't know if they can come up with even worse characters and an even dumber story to be worthy of making a new entry.
They fail, but they usually don't take a company with them because they're cheap trash that anyone can shit out with a minimum of effort. Sinking your company with a failed mobile game would be laughably incompetent.
what about more Disgaea games
That disc better have the full version of Last Engage. D4 may not be the best but dear god it and D3 have the BEST opening songs.
NIS/A tardiness know no limits, is actually quite impressive to see them fuck themselves like that.
The bookmark should have a character on it rather than a sardine.
Stock prices are a consequence of the economic situation and public opinion of a company and do not fucking foreshadow its success or failure.
Why is it that fucking hard to understand.
Stocks may plummet because a company is failing, but a company won't fail because its stocks are plummeting.

Yes.
They already forgot about Asagi's game and killed it, then they tried to do a normal Disgaea mobage. They deserve to die.

Marvelous will probably make bank off of RF4 on Switch and RF5. I don't think they're gonna die off.
/biz/ here. He is right you know
Can confirm because I'm buying both of those day fucking one.
This would actually be funny
you'd start seeing NIS characters in Dota and shit
Don't know much about VNs, other than outside of the major companies I imagine many of them come and go due to its extreme niche, especially since the japanese are primarily mobile now. My guess is that this company had a low amount of cash anyway, and mobile was their last gasp.
Eh, maybe. I am sure that their attorneys vetted the contract with this company though. If it is true that there is no protection though due to how japanese does business then that astounds me. There would be no point in a contract other than specific pricing for services, but with no protection how can they be certain they will fulfill the terms of the contract. Whatever. NIS will probably be alright, but businesses come and go. If they have any financial reports readily available that would tell the story more than anything.
How am I only reading this for the first time
Damn, I'd play as Asagi. I'd play the hell out of Asagi.
actually giving Asagi her own game would honestly have been a mistake anyways, because then she loses the entire purpose of her character, not that I'm not tired as fuck of her shtick and her old lady voice they stuck with for NA
Hopefully their IPs are sold to someone who's actually competent.
I just want them to port RF4 to PC too. I loved that game but I never finished it because I hated using the 3DS.
WOOOW
Remember that NIS is not NISA.
>Dies Irae is going to die because of mobage shit
I'm going to be so fucking pissed
Same shit, if NIS dies NISA dies too, both of them are retarded but NISA is even more retarded.
yeah but she wasn't very funny
>D3 have the BEST opening songs.
That ain't Sinful Rose from DIsgaea 2. Sinful Rose is the best opening theme from the series.
They are working of Daemon X Machina so not yet.
they can both fuck off. NIS is shit but NISA is shit from shit. Hopefully they can hand these IPs to companies that can write code that won't literally melt your console.
Can I get a cliff notes version on why this company is so bad? I've read some hate but I've never seen why the hate is there.
>How did they manage to fuck up so badly, not even Idea Factory, Compile Heart, or even companies like Marvelous messed up this badly.
IF/CH are the masters of asset flips and their games never have big production values. Not that NIS games are high budget but IF/CH are just smart about the money they have for the size of the company they are.
Sinful Rose is very good and was a staple of my old iPod but nah. Maritsu Evil Academy has such a wonderful magic about its tongue-in-cheek devilishness. It's so silly and over the top like a weeb horror musical.
>if NIS dies NISA dies too
Life isn't that kind.
Most of the hate is for their subsidiary NISA. The parent company is mostly okay, if lazy.
I don't see why, they're problematic in completely different ways. NISA has been expanding territory like no one's business (taking hold of the Falcom properties in Europe/US doesn't inform of any major economic downfall) while NIS has been just booming all over the place dev-wise in Japan.
Even if NISA have bad translations or implanted bugs in their games, if they're selling, they're selling.
>poster parodying thing from over a decade ago
Amazing, exactly what I wanted. I haven't seen one of those posted in years.
NIS? From the moment they moved to PS3 they've been pushing bullshit on-disc DLC practices where you have to pay more than the price of the base game to get all the content.
NISA? Just read the pastebin.
pastebin.com
So you be saying that there might be a possible future where NIS dies but NISA keeps being alive? that's fucked up.
Just play Prinny 2.
Unless both are dual audio I'm not probably pirating both.
>NIS? From the moment they moved to PS3 they've been pushing bullshit on-disc DLC practices where you have to pay more than the price of the base game to get all the content.
They have gotten better over the years though. The situation with them is nowhere near as bad as it was with the original D3-4, and Labyrinth of Refrain is a very decent game. NISA, while holding monopoly on a lot of interesting properties, is the one that needs to fuck off or get better.
>(taking hold of the Falcom properties in Europe/US doesn't inform of any major economic downfall)
They didn't outbid XSEED for it or anything, the only reason NISA took over Ys and Trails is because Falcom's president and NIS' president are friends. It's cronyism.
Yup. Financially independent, and they have been for quite a while. For example, I don't think it's the same case with Atlus USA.
>The situation with them is nowhere near as bad as it was with the original D3-4
Except that DD2 and D5 were exactly the same.
Last Engage is my jam
They should be bought by Microsoft. Aren't they looking for a jap company to buy?
Just do it Phil
What about them having the hold of several niche Suda51 games in USA/Europe, SNK and Kadokawa games, alongside getting releases from Sting from Atlus USA? They're doing business, even if there's shady shit behind.
That would be so so bad.
Why? They're already dying, this would bring their games back to not being dead.
Marvelous can't die yet I need to make them put the soundtracks to the harvest moon/story of seasons, Rune Factory and lufia series soundtracks on digital music stores
Duh it's obvious not the mobile game fault it's just what made people see how NIS is incompetent, but the fault is that they made 500 games that don't sell well, just like Telltales.
No company goes bankrupt because of 1 game and for sure not because of 1 mobile game that don't even cost much anyway.
Well even if we never get Disgaea 6, 5 main games was a decent run. Just sucks we ended on Kilia. No one was as based as Valvatorez. But maybe sardine chads will have the last laugh after all since pic related is coming out.
>Last time I heard about NIS it was about Disgaea 6 being in development
>Now this
>It's probably already been cancelled
No....
They're also going to make mad bank out of the Doraemon game if they play their cards right.
So it's Sony's fault
They made game for PS2 too dude
I really doubt that they're gonna make much off it in the West, Doraemon has never been that big here.
Fuck ForwardWork
Thank you for actually linking to the tweet instead of posting a screenshot of it.
And not on PC because they're that fucking stupid.
Where's 2 and 3 Complete?
"The West" is just not the US my dude. Spanish/Portuguese/South American kids can be a big market if you play it right. Dunno about the italian and the french, but probably, too.
Fuck snoy. Let's hope piss5 crashes and burns the whole snoy company.
Last Disgaea I really liked was 4 in terms of story. NIS has been shit ever since the PS3 era and I cannot fathom anyone who plays JRPGs care about them other then Disgaea. I hope when someone gets all the IPs like Soul Nomad and Makai Kingdom they release them on PC.
3 with all it's DLCs (?) will be stuck on the Vita and 2 has everything on PC version
They didn't have DLC stuff for that though.
Labyrinth of Refrain had an interesting story but the gameplay was tedious as fuck.
>I cannot fathom anyone who plays JRPGs care about them other then Disgaea
Labyrinth of Refrain was pretty OK. Better than any Disgaea in my experience.
I still cannot believe Disgaea 5 Complete on PC got delayed for 5 months and they still cut the online content. The beta test version was basically the same version that came out 5 months later so I cant imagine what they were doing for that long.
A Rose in the Twilight was cute
Is the DLC actually not broken as fuck on PC? I recall none of the characters had working voices and some just didn't get into the NA version because NISA's usual incompetence (Gig, Dark Eclair and I think that crossover character that looked like an Atelier girl?)
>The beta test version was basically the same version that came out 5 months later so I cant imagine what they were doing for that long.
Ys 8 was delayed for half a year and released in just as bad a state it was when it was in the beta before the initial release date. They're just incompetent.
And nothing of value besides Disgaea will be lost. And even then, It hasn't been it's not that big of a loss
Fucking shita, holding hostage yet another game. What a terrible handheld. I am glad it bombed.
Playing through D1 on switch now, then gonna play 5 and then 4 when it releases. wish me luck.
Both bethesda and Microsoft are trying to get contracts and buy all the japanese companies they can recently.
i thought the vita had no games though?
Hey, if they released 4 they can release 3, too. No reason why not to.
The only thing I don't understand is why they did not port D2 if they already have the PC version lying around.
Inferior games they were right to skip to 4.
Cladun x4 when?
I still didn't get it but I'm waiting for summer sale. How do you rank them compared to other NIS games?
Bethesda only has a single Japanese studio, and it's one they founded.
A bit better and more "playable" than Witch and the Hundred Knight, but definitely more conventional too.
That was the PSP.
You thought right.
Let's hope so. As long as games get rescued from the barren wasteland that is called shita, it is good.
Look at the Xbox store. It's full of super niche jrpgs.
MS should get Mistwalker first so that Sakaguchi can catch a fucking break from making mobile games
This. Sega or Cygames. The horror if Tencent does though.
Not nearly enough. Sony stopped bothering making first party games for it and never really seemed to try to get exclusives. No-one went out of their way to target the Vita, so aside from a few odd things it's pretty much whatever Switch and PS4 games the devs decided to also release on Vita. It's been a festering wound since at least 2015 and Sony treats it like a mistake which they want to forget.
A shame, it could've been pretty good. PSP was cool.
Because that worked the first time around (remember that their contract stipulated 3 games?)
Takehito Harada's art was the only reason I think I ever liked from Disagea or NIS products.
>Cygames
I don't see why they would bother. They make so much money already and have enough characters to just make their own SRPG if they wanted that would probably sell way more than a Disgaea.
It was pulled from western markets in fiscal year 2015 and the die hard believers claimed it was an april fools joke because the fiscal year starts April 1st
I really do wish Atlus would port their Vanillaware catalogue onto the Switch. Portable/720p without hiccups would be a godsend.
Sakaguchi is a cadaver dude. What year do you think we are right now?
He's only artist that makes me like cunny. Sure I love his titty monsters most but Usalia just fucks my dick up.
It would be great to see a Makai Kingdom port with all the PSP additions like Petta mode.
He's a cool easygoing cadaver. 'sup man
It worked better than whatever the shit they are doing now.
Vanillaware need to port them to Switch. Otherwise they will go bankrupt. Such is the results of being a son(y)gger company.
Yup, Harada art and Tenpei Sato music.
Neve mind, I thought he was in his 60s lol
Ueamatsu is older
I will day 1 buy RF4 and 5, even if I can't marry best girl Venti.
It's gachashit, but I hope Dragalia Lost lives long enough to get a console game too.
Sato's music hasn't been good since D4 either.
They're both in their late 50s. That's not very bad.
Why did a mobile studio have to disappoint this man?
Eh, let's not shitpost. Their main problem right now is that they've been developing an VN for 4+ years by now, and misadvertising the shit out of it (which may as well be their parent company's fault).
>Same version
Bullshit lie for gullible morons.
Then it is no brainer to bring their older catalogue of games to never devices. Get Odin Sphere, Dragon's Crown and Muramasa to Switch Vanillaware, you cunts.
Im pretty sure the whole game has a fan translation out.
Where did it all go wrong?
>Disgaea 6
>not Soul Nomad 2
>not Makai Wars: Not Mobile Trash Edition
>not a new Marl Kingdom game
>tfw Labyrinth of Galleria is likely dead
The thing is that, with how Atlus is handling them (they're a subsidiary now), they're releasing exclusively for PS machines. The whole P5 ordeal could've been a breakthrough somewhat, but that didn't happen.
Cygames won't buy NIS.
If anything Cygames would pump a lot of money to NIS and tell them to make Granblue grindan SRPG.
What are you talking about, user? They made Guided Fate Paradox!
god I fucking hate GFP and AFU
Complete. It has literally all the DLC and then some, plus it seems to be getting some of D5's QoL stuff
I'm so glad D4C is happening, D5 seems fun but the story and cast gives me a fucking aneurysm
It's hardly a sequel, I want my silly sentai fix & beloved prinny housewife.
>d4c
Dojyaan
God ZHP was so good. Just port it before you die please NIS
>he didn't play Hundred Knight or Refrain
>d4c+
You realize this shit is spread by SJWs just to discourage people that don't want sanitized, family-friendly games, right?
Give me an example and of stocks decreasing for a company that was not caused directly by their failings.
>public opinion of a company
EA would disagree
I did play Refrain, the soundtrack in that was completely forgettable.
How is Sony going to kill Marvelous?
US sales numbers for software leaked earlier this year and it really puts into perspective just how badly it sold and how dire a situation it was in the west.
This list is in terms of dollar sales up until September 2018 and the top earning Vita game only sold 400k copies in the US, the 10th best selling Vita game only sold 200k copies in the US, and only 1 game made it on the list that came out after 2012, the year that Vita launched. Almost all of these have went on sale for $5 or even less too.
Things were so bad it's a miracle they didn't pull out sooner and we even got the Slim model here.
13 Sentinels is a fucking VN?
Ooor there could be mismanagement on the side of NIS, a well reported fact since the end of last gen? Conspiracies are tasty tho
The prologue is super-story heavy, to the point that it feels way more like a VN than anything, and we have no fucking clue if the main game will be the same/different
This is what happens when you partner with a company who spends all of their resources and manhours cranking out spinoffs for whatever their most popular game is
Yes. They're also making other game that seems to be more gameplay oriented, but 13S is gonna crash hard.
There's only so much studio & IP they could buy until eventually there's none.
Too qt.
Basedny fucked them
Uncharted was a PS+ freebie so like a bajillion people "bought" it digitally for free that month.
Nah, the actual development and product can't be attributed to Atlus. However, the complete lack of info or publicity definitely is their fault. Holy shit, they're obsessed with Persona, it's ridiculous.
>tfw no DD2 on steam yet and probably never
Ask Sony to make it.
Why is everybody blaming Sony here?
>ZHP2 NEVER EVER
Fuck'em.
fuck off, snoy.
>wanting yet another buggy mess & dumbed down PC port of Disgaea games
Did you not learn something the last time they scammed everyone?
>I must buy everything it's THEIR fault I can't manage money
fuck off, whale.
>NISA melting PCs and crashing with certain sound clips played
god i would buy it but wait for patches for sure.
That top 10 list is based on dollar sales so a PS+ freebie would be $0 so it's still top ranked in total dollar sales even with that.
That 400k number came from someone else but I sure hope it didn't include PS+ downloads for that or else things would be so much worse.
Ozonne in a game when?
They trusted Sony devs, they ran with the money and papa Sony's lawyers are protecting them by default so they can't sue.
Never ever. Flonne will get the spotlight and her sister will fade further into obscurity.
WF is SIE property.
I love SEGA and they probably would handle NIS really well. If it wasn't for the fact that SEGA already has Atlus at the very least. NIS would probably effectively shrivel up and die in Atlus's shadow under SEGA. Like Squaresoft under Enix.
>with nothing new
But it is going to have new content.
That is extremely fucked up. To think NIS used to be the holy Grail of weebshit games. I really do feel bad about NIS, and I think I have a glimpse of idea why Japanese developers are releasing their games on Switch instead of PS4.
prove it.
>god I fucking hate GFP
The Guided Fate Paradox is absolutely amazing! It's not Toku like ZHP, sure, but mechanically the game is an improvement and thematically its themes are strong and effectively executed.
They wouldn't call it + otherwise. This will be like the old handheld ports where they added mechanics from sequels and games in progress etc.
He's referring to Sony pretty much killing Senran Kagura.
>digital not included for P4G
hahaha fucking persona might've been the best selling vita game in the US lmao
You probably didnt know because it never really released, the mess is apparently so buggy and server connection can be severed like a wet toilet paper, the game spend a week in maintenance on release trying to fix shit, then they just threw their hands in the air, blamed gaijins for fucking the servers with traffic and said "yeah we'll need about 6 months to fix everything, sayonara"
didn't they also do something like leave dev tools fully accessible or some shit
They'll make a bank out of Rune Factory games anyway. Marvelous heavily favors developing games for Nintendo Switch too so there's that. Most developers who wants fancy graphics either go to Microsoft or Sony.
How so? They have a lot of franchise for Nintendo platform so not being Sony buttbudy shouldn't be too much problem for them.
Oh yeah, not sure if exactly dev tools but people got access to debug accounts? You know, filled with 99999 stat characters
FUCK NO! Look what they did to Gust. Gust games were already ridiculous in price for being shitty otaku bait, but now they are more shameless than EA.
I doubt that hurt them that much, but my goodness, it seemed like NIS was stuck in a blackhole in the PS3 years. Garbage like that and Mugen Souls Z were just bad games.
Mugen Souls Z was a Compile Heart game.
Sega or bandai namco should buy them
wait does this mean the d4 switch release is not happening
bunnies are trash
I could actually kinda see this working. With Sony going full puritan mode Nintendo stands to benefit from pivoting to eat up the weeby stuff that was always on Playstation until now.
Strongly doubt they'd do it though.
I only want Disgaea 6 if in the postgame they reveal that everything past the 2nd game took place in the clown dimension and you get to recruit the first game's cast except their character development actually stuck.
but user... if NIS was that popular in Japan they wouldn't be fucking DEAD now would they?
F
>expecting resetera and redddit to play games for the gameplay and not the epic youtube feels kino moments
They don't want shit studios laden with debt, you Xtranny retard.
I can't believe he's fucking dead doods
