NIS America’s President Discusses Xbox 360 Development And PC Push

Disgaea 1~4 Steam Version with preorder bonus (Plenair and Prinny hats for Team Fortress 2 )  *-*

Love NISA but if they’re tied to releasing 3 games on 360 and each of those games has to have a minimum print of 50,000 units on 360 isnt that extremely risky for a small publisher? Hope it works out for them

Port Disgaea to Steam.
Oh god please do it.

Yea, I didn’t expect it to be anything that Rockin’ Android has already made efforts to capitalize on.  As far as I can tell, this is just an effort to get their feet wet, not to necessarily expand to a console.

If they were wanting to really expand, there’s quite a few franchises that NISA could pick from, but the 360′s already grabbed the stereotype of ‘sans Japan’ from both its own country and here.

Which is odd because the ones in Japan that have taken to developing on the 360, Cave is a good example, I wouldn’t mind them trying again on the PS3…but the PS3 is a different beast entirely to code a game on.

i see a lot potential on PC like :

1. try bringing doujin stuff over here

2.bring visual novel/ bishojo game

3. or work together with the like of mangagamer to publish their already
localized VN at retail or steam/other ddl outlet (just do the non ero
stuff if eroge isn’t possible :P)
4. and ofcourse for more mainstream japanese game.

for 360 i don’t really see the point since pretty much only some STG left for niche genre (even cave now already staring making vita shoot em up), most of galge/vn also available on psp, or PS3 with the late port one have more content, upcoming ps3 vn already much more the potential for expanding to 360 pretty much only one thing :

1. for localizing more mainstream or a bit bigger mainstream stuff in the west(like shounen anime stuff/ or  this clan of champions stuff or stufff with more “realistic” non anime artstyle game)
—————————————————————–
while at the same time for ps3:
i do hope their also maintain and increasing their core and niche PS3(and othe playstation platform) game localization output.

1. please keep localizing JRPG for PS3/PSP and upcoming PSvita and maintain the dual voice tradition, don’t go the way atlus going now, expanding to western game while there is still a lot of their own game not localized (growlanser!!!!!!!(T-T))

2.there still a lot of japanese console exclusive stuff waiting to localize on that platform (try to seduce bamco to get some of their ip localized by you nisa)

3.if nisa get “bigger” with this “expansion” then i do hope they could also expand to non mainstream japanese gam fans by bring some vn/galge to the west since PS3 pretty much already become current main choice for HD console
VN now, and psvita pretty much starting to inherit psp stuff, start with key litle buster converted edition.

i definately think porting some tactical rpgs to steam would be a good move as pc gamers seem generally starved for those.  I don’t know how pc users would take the anime style and grinding but they seem to handle those fine in mmos.  atluses problem with 360 to me was when titles like operation darkness had camera problems and spectral force 3 locked up they just seemed like rushed ports though id go with pc instead of 360. as long as the ports aren’t rushed and buggy i think people would be more open to titles.
