I know some people who are going to be very very excited to see this.

I'm one of them, lol! I will buy every Disgaea day one, brand new. Have to make sure NIS gets my money, as they actually deserve it unlike some developers out there.

Sure the games aren't for everyone, but to those who enjoy it... There's almost no better value for your money. I put like 200+ hours into Disgaea 4 alone. Killer deal for a $50 dollar game.

I buy every Disgaea. It can't be helped. The gameplay, story, dialogue, and characters are all just too good.

Omg this game looks beautiful. Can't wait to play it.

I don't own a PS4 though, and I'd rather play it on my Vita, but I may be getting a PS4 in 2015 at some point.

* Also heard there can be many more players on screen at the same time, This is nice so we can use more characters at once.

When does this come out?

Disgaea D2: March 2013 in JP, October 2013 in NA (7 months)
Disgaea 4: February 2011 in JP, September 2011 in NA (7 months)
Disgaea 3: January 2008 in JP, August 2008 in NA (7 months)

So 7 months is typical. I guess we can expect a similar timeframe for this one?

I wonder what the "REVENGE" system is. Like in the last image, how "Revenge!" is written over everyone's head. A new type of counter-attack? Maybe group based? TGS can't come soon enough.

Vita Remote Play with this will be godly

How Developers Adapted to the End of Sony's Handheld Line

VGChartz's Adam Cartwright: "When Sony entered the world of handheld gaming in 2004, it provided a new opportunity for developers to chase a different market than had existed before. Over the next decade we saw multiple companies, from both western and eastern shores, shift their pipelines to focus on providing software for both the PlayStation Portable and its successor the PlayStation Vita. Despite the latter’s relatively weak hardware sales, there were still successes to be found on the console, which meant that it was easy to plan a future around being a Vita developer.

By 2014, though, it had become clear that Sony was no longer interested in pursuing the handheld market and this left a number of companies in difficulty – they’d either need to adapt to the shifting times, or face dying out altogether. In this article, I’m aiming to look at what happened to developers who made both the PSP and Vita their main focus, how they adapted to the demise of Sony handhelds, what future plans they made, and how well they’re doing in the current gaming market."

The moved to the Switch from Vita. Some of the exact same games or similar games from those developers. Loved the Vita and glad to see those devs still have a platform to release lesser budget fun games.
