THANKS FOR BETA TESTING PS2 FAGS
http://gematsu.com/2016/05/phantom-brave-coming-pc-july
What now Sonyfags? Your precious PS2 lost another exclusive.
You know it was already ported to PSP and Wii, right?
Keep it please
It's trash
Once again, the glorious PC Master race has won again.
The amount of sony tears I'll drink from this will be delicious.
>>337888267
The petition worked bros, master race!
We got the OST free.
Checkmate mustards.
>>337888267
ITT Sony fanboys falseflagging.
>>337888267
>>337888421
> PC cucks waited 12 years to shitpost.
Congrats. Was it worth the wait to finally get a port after 12 years?
>>337888267
12 years of Beta Testing
>>337889119
Yeh but we got the porn. We win.
>>337888267
The important question is :
Is this a port of the PS2 version or the PSP one?
>>337889226
>no fun allowed
Shitty version of Makai Kingdom.
>>337889460
What's different between the two versions besides graphix being the obvious one
>>337889460
>Port is based on the Wii version and will also contain content from the PSP release
https://twitter.com/NISAmerica/status/732325967541108737
>>337889674
PSP has Extra Content like more story, characters and new game+.
>>337889874
Thanks anon.
Good thing it's the Wii version, which will probably mean no fps drop in the home island.
That's the only thing I fucking hate from the PSP port.
>>337889579
no anon. It's not. From the battle system alone, it is not like Makai Kingdom.
That game played like ass.
It's mechanics were so annoying to get used to.
Makai Kingdom fixed all it's problems.
>>337889247
I think it was meant to be ironic
>>337888267
Personally, I believe this is NIS's greatest turn based strategy rpg.
Too bad not a single gaming journalists actually liked it. They were all too busy shitting on it for having a loli as main character. I'm sure that's what made them all give it a bad score.
The story itself is heartwarming. But the meat of this game is it's battle system. It's not the typical grid based strategy rpg. It's actually more closer to free roam .
It's the most underrated srpg out there.
>>337888267
uh this game was ported to the wii with extra content. so "thanks for beta testing wii fags" is what you should of said. also this is pretty cool news even though it can be emulated on either system at least theres a legit way to play for people not into emulation or moral fags
>>337888267
Awww yiss.
>>337888476
>>337890683
THANKS FOR BETA TESTING PS2 PSP & WII FAGS
>>337888267
WE DID IT AGAIN PC BROS.
WE FUCKING DID AGAIN!
>>337890348
Feels weird seeing NIS games release on non sony platforms
They seem to try with Nintendo platforms every now and then and then stop
>>337888267
Why not justemulate it?
Oh boy, only a few more years/decades until they port Makai kingdom and soul nomad!
This thread
>>337888498
>>337890425
I'm so glad messageboards are a thing of the past. NIS fanboys would jump on anyone who criticized the game and characters.
Do an attack in the middle of the battlefield, the character glitches and moves up, pushing the friendly unit off the board due to an invisible wall.
>>337888267
I beat this game and in my opinion the plot and characters are gay.
Music was cool though.

>implying the Wii port doesn't exist.
Is There a reason not to just emulate it?
>Not Makai Kingdom
Tell me when they port the best game.
>>337888267
Whoa, they really didn't bother with sprite smoothing this time. That looks so bad in modern resolution.
>>337888421
It exists on PSP and Wii as well.
>>337892976
>Makai Kingdom
Probably never because PSP port never got officially localized and they're apparently always going off of the last game version.
>>337893015
DESU the smoothing in Disgaea was pretty bad anyway.
>>337892470
>ironic thread about an old game coming to PC
>somehow nyggers still get their triggers
Almost forgot that summer was closing in, thanks anon.
>>337891370
>They seem to try with Nintendo platforms every now and then and then stop
Because Nintendo fans are perfectly fine just playing Fire Emblem on their systems.
>>337893176
Almost forgot that PCucks gets easily triggered
Thanks anon
>>337893175
It's better than THIS. Which is a shame because those backgrounds look real fucking nice.
Now you get to enjoy your old shit game
SOUL NOMAD ON PC WHEN?
>>337893304
thanks man, hope you still have fun with bloodborne :^)
>>337890425
Makai Kingdom is probably the most underrated NIS SRPG. Soul Nomad at least gets recognition for evil route, everyone forgets Makai Kingdom.
>>337891370
Every Nintendo port has been awful. It likely has to do with NIS being terrible at optimization and not knowing how to work with less powerful consoles well.
>>337888267
I can't wait to beat this again. Time for more Witch Rafts and Trout Valkyries. And trolly stacking until I am the god-king of speed.
I honestly wonder what kind of thought process goes into the Japanese when they port ancient games to PC. Do they have a bunch of games in a hat, and then port whatever they pull out? Are there a bunch of Japanese programmers giggling as they type up a port announcement, laughing at a joke that may as well have come straight out of Spongebob?
This is beyond being a stereotype, it seems like it's a joke every Jap dev is in on. There is negligible monetary gain from porting an ancient ass game, especially when the game is somewhat obsure to begin with, not to mention the game being placed on a steep discount. These games aren't cash grabs, they're jokes at PCfag's expense.
>>337893381
I never hear much talk about La Pucelle. Never played it though so dunno how good it is.
>>337890425
>fucked up stealing mechanics
>bouncing
>fucked up dungeon design
>bouncing
>fucked up way to get the "best" sword in the game
The best thing this game had was character designs that never got used again. No lady zombie ever again.
>>337893474
Japanese PC gaming scene doesn't really exist outside of H-games. So yeah, probably everything you said.
>FFX, FFXII
>KH, KH2
>Disgaea, Phantom Brave
Is there literally any reason to buy a PS2 anymore?
>>337893628
Nice meme, retard.
>>337889519
How fucking young are you to find console war baiting fun? Where the fuck are your parents right now and why aren't they beating your dumb nigger ass?
>>337893474
They port either their newest shit with the ports in development along the console versions, or old games they know people like because they're still praised to the day.
>>337893474
>There is negligible monetary gain from porting an ancient ass game, especially when the game is somewhat obsure to begin with, not to mention the game being placed on a steep discount.
No one can really knows because we have no idea how much they cost to port. Maybe it's chump change so practically anything they make is pure profit? I would like to see Disgaea games on PC, though.
>>337893381
>>337893352
Pretty sure Makai Kingdom is next in line, Phantom Brave came out right after Disgaea 1, so it looks as if they're releasing games based on their original debut order. So that means Disgaea 1 -> Phantom Brave ->Makai Kingdom -> Disgaea 2 -> Soul Nomad
No idea if PSP exclusive games like Prinny would make it, only time will tell I guess.
>>337893208
Phantom Brave shits on most every FEin my opinion.
>>337893015
anti aliasing pixelated sprites for 1080p+ resolutions looks shit most of the time
>>337893683
I had a sensible chuckle.
Thanks, anon.
>>337893734
Some also do it backwards for whatever reason.
>Sword of the Samurai 4 gets released
>months later they announce 3 is also getting ported
>>337893770
I don't think MK is happening because there is no English version of the PSP port and all PC releases so far, Phantom Brave included, are based on PSP versions.
>>337893734
>Japanese
>porting new games
And no one outside the most diehard NIS fanboys apparently have heard of the game.
>>337893742
If it costs peanuts, then it must be pure profit. I just want to get the license to RECCA and "port" that to PC, 24 years after the NES version. Fucking hell, when will they port Blaster Master? That game is brand fucking new by Japanese console-to-PC port standards.
>>337893875
>mfw I can finally play the entire series on PC
Best unintentional RPG series ever made.
>>337893978
NISA didn't localize MK's PSP port because it came out at the tail end of the PSP's life cycle, this could be their chance to localize it.
If not, I don't mind playing the PS2 version, Makai Kingdom is damn fun.
>>337893015
That's just disgusting.
>>337890348
>PSP has Extra Content like more story, characters and new game+.
So I guess PC version becomes best one cause perfomance is better than PSP one?
fuck. I hate playing on PC.
>>337893984
Phantom Brave was probably NIS's most well known game that wasn't Disgaea back in the day.
>>337894216
What about puppet-whatever? You know, the one which was named Rhapsody a musical adventure here.
>>337893984
>>And no one outside the most diehard NIS fanboys apparently have heard of the game.
That's all the more reason to put it on Steam, so more people will find and play it in an easily accessible format.
>>337888267
I wonder how their new game sales will do after people realize PC ports are happening. For example, Idea Factory's new games aren't selling that well because people expect them to port everything to PC at a later date.
>>337894357
Great, let's port an obscure game on a platform that is otherwise devoid of Japanese games.
'89 Dennou Kyuusei Uranai port when?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFUy-pYt_1c
>>337893742
>I would like to see Disgaea games on PC, though.
I just want them to get to 4 because there's no way to really pretty up old sprites short of completely redrawing them and that ain't happening. Switch to HD sprites in 4 and onward was great.
>>337893474
Here's the thought: "White pigs buy anything for PC! Disgaea PC port is shit, they still rate Very Positive! Quick, Takeshi! Take month and make Phantom Brave work on Windows!"
Despite being utterly shit ports, nip games sell well. Until customers stop buying lazy, shit ports of old games, we're going to continue to get lazy, shit ports of old games.
Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness runs better and looks better on my PSP Emulator than the Steam version did before I refunded that bullshit.
>>337894512
>Despite being utterly shit ports, nip games sell well.
But not well enough to warrant simultaneous or slightly delayed ports.
>>337894512
Retard. Phantom Brave was in steamdb leak in Dec. Also Disgaea PC was a ok port.
>>337894360
>For example, Idea Factory's new games aren't selling that well because people expect them to port everything to PC at a later date.
If that's true, that should clue these publishers into realizing that the sooner games are ported, the better off they are. Intentionally withholding a game like this actually harms sales, though not in a great deal. Not to mention, when the games are inevitably ported, the hype has died and they can't ask $60 per copy, so they effectively lost quite a bit of money.
>>337893590
It's Disgaea with pokemon and an earlier (and I think better) GeoPanel mechanic.
Also Priere is the best MC ever. Well, 2nd to Gig I suppose
>>337894763
>Stuttered and slowed without a D-Input controller
>Limited Options
>VSync and SSAO on a game over a decade old slow even the best computers
If you think Disgaea PC is an OK port, you're a battered housewife saying your husband is OK because he stopped using the metal bat to beat your ass.
The PC port of Disgaea is terrible.
>>337895742
Aren't all those issues fixed and/or happened because of Steam beta build that fucked the game?
>>337895634
PSP version got fan translated, right? I know it was never localized because of rights issues because some other company had the rights to it in the west.
>>337895964
Yeah, the fan translation is pretty damn good, considering "they do it for FREE". A few hiccups here and there, mostly in menus and item descriptions, but entirely playable.
>>337894628
Of course not. Steam users are jews who'll wait for the Steam sale on a $20 game, let alone one that's selling for $59.99.
Why the fuck would any publisher self-cannibalize their primary sales market by launching simultaneously on Steam? As soon as their audience knows it WILL come to Steam, they can wait out the launch window and just play other shit until they snag it for $10.
So they launch on consoles first, get their money there, and then a couple years down the line throw out a shoddy port to snag some crumbs. Anyone willing to wait a couple years isn't in their primary market to begin with, so it's not a lost sale to them.
Would you launch simultaneously on PC and consoles as a small-time publisher? Fuck knows I wouldn't.
>>337896083
>Why the fuck would any publisher self-cannibalize their primary sales market by launching simultaneously on Steam?
I don't know, ask western AAA market.
>Would you launch simultaneously on PC and consoles as a small-time publisher?
Doesn't stop the indies.
>>337888267
So it's going to have all the We'll Meet Again content, right?
Right?
>>337895954
Not really.
The port is still hit and miss. The patch fixed some stuff, screwed up other stuff, and NIS decided to patch slowdown by using frameskipping, so that if you were slowing down before, you now get times where the game just goes choppy as fuck.
>>337896232
It's based off We Meet Again plus the PSP bonus content.
>>337888267
rip phantom brave threads.
not that they were alive before
>>337896212
>Western AAA Market
They know their shit's going to sell like hotcakes no matter how bad it is. Hype and marketing, baby.
>Doesn't stop the indies
Apples and oranges: Indies are indies, and every sale matters when you're small time.
Indies aren't selling their games for $59.99 at launch like NIS and other niche nip studios do when they release in NA.
Who the fuck cares, you can fucking emulate all versions of it already. Can't wait for NISA to release an absolutely unoptimized buggy mess.
JUST FUCKING PORT THE OTHER DISGAEA GAMES TO PC ALREADY FOR FUCK'S SAKE. I WANT TO PLAY D5
>>337896571
Get a ps4 if you want it so damn bad
Oh wait I forgot ps4 has no games except ones I want ported away from it
I hate playing on PC. Just how bad PSP framerate is? Disgaea 4 Vita item world bad?
>>337896692
worse
>>337896571
It's kinda weird they do that but I don't see the point of pirating the game if they port it now.
>>337896571
No you don't, man.
Trust me.
>>337893381
I liked makai kingdom but hated its structure.
>replay 50 bazillion times to get like one more new thing
Fuck that.
>>337896750
fuck
does that nvidia shield thingy will allow me to play comfy while streaming game from PC?
>>337893015
Goddamn, at least on PS2 this shit looked like it meshed together.
>>337892764
>I swear this nigger better have posted Walnut's song
Well, I'm satisfied.
>>337896891
Is worse but is still playable
>>337896083
I can literally do the exact same thing with ANY console game, especially if I am fine with buying it used. This is not unique to PC, stop being a retard.
I bought this for wii awhile back. It was like 5 dollars or less.
I should play that shit. The description looks pretty good
>>337896992
fuck. I guess there is no ideal solution.
>>337893381
>>337893770
>They will skip la pucelle
>>337897391
>tfw missed out on all the PS2 NIS games besides Disgaea 1
>tfw they're getting ports
Feels good.
Hope we get Soul Nomad eventually.
>>337897559
40, when will you finally kill yourself?
No seriously, we're all waiting on that.
>>337897671
don't bully
>>337897002
Comparing used sales to Steam sales is retarded.
A Steam sale only requires patience. When a game is on Steam, it's a given fact that you will be able to buy the game at some point during a Steam sale, and the only thing stopping you is time.
For a used game, not only do you have to be patient, but for a used game to exist it has to have first been bought new and then subsequently sold by the owner. For niche games, this can actually increase the aftermarket value and makes waiting instead of buying new a gamble, unless you're willing to wait for the digital copy to go on sale on PSN.
Steam can produce infinite copies of Disgaea PC for $4.99. Demand for used games drives up the price of used games, and no matter how high the demand is, the supply can only ever equal the number of new copies sold in the first place.
You're the retard here, not me.
Soul Nomad isn't getting a PC release.
Based NIS.
>>337888267
>Disgaea only sold 50k
I doubt this will break 10k. You'd think if they were going to port anything, they'd do a game that anyone actually remembers, like Makai Kingdom.
>>337897850
>they'd do a game that anyone actually remembers, like Makai Kingdom.
>actually remembers
>Makai Kingdom
anon... Don't lie to yourself.
>>337897850
>Only 50k
Anon that's really good for an old ass port. Selling something like that for $20 a pop means NISA made great profits.
>>337897850
To be honest, the games most begging for a port right now are Prinny and Prinny 2. Pretty much everything else has had relatively recent ports and PSN releases.
Though all this talk about NIS is making me want to fire up my copy of La Pucelle.
>>337897850
>a game is only good if it sells 100k million copies on day one!!!!
Nigger, you're comparing apples with kumquats.
Just because the apple sells billions every year dosn't make a kumquat less tasty.
>>337898326
>To be honest, the games most begging for a port right now are Prinny and Prinny 2.
admit it, you just want to see people suffering.
not that I blame you.
Yes yes yes yes yes.
>>337898824
If there are any games designed to break Let's Players, those two are it.
Yes, I'll admit it: I want to sit down with a bowl of popcorn and watch people do the video game equivalent of cutting.
>>337900034
>Yes, I'll admit it: I want to sit down with a bowl of popcorn and watch people do the video game equivalent of cutting.
Me too, anon.
That will be quite a delightful show.
>>337900494
Normally I don't really watch Let's Plays. About the only time I do is when it's someone doing it blind and when it's for a game I know is going to fuck them up.
Do you think we'll ever get some of their previously unlocalized games ported to PC and translated?
Makai kingdom was the superior 360° movement, summoning into items game
>>337900610
>Normally I don't really watch Let's Plays
almost same, usually just load whatever 4X/card stuff on 2nd monitor just for white noise while I work.
I guess main problem with Prinny let's plays will be to find people who will not be acting like those who play I wanna be the Guy and sort.
Thankfully that usually easy to see.
>>337900797
>doing more work for no additional profit
nah
>>337893623
Didn't the new Disgaea have female zombies?
>>337901090
>>337901090
female maid zombies
>>337900797
No. Looks like many new games are going multiplat though, with stuff like hotaru no nikki and that other vita horror game also getting PC ports.
No mention of We Meet Again content ?
>>337888498
So are you
>>337889874
>>337889874
>Port is based on the Wii version and will also contain content from the PSP release
hey if we're lucky that might mean if we get a Makai Kingdom PC release, they'll add the PSP content from that too.
>>337902074
>Makai Kingdom PC
I spoke with NIS before and they said no.
Get fucked PCkek.
>>337890348
I don't recall more story added to the PSP version from the Wii one..
I do remember that Hermuda Triangle basically just added a bunch of random fights to recruit some new characters.
Specifically:
Hero Prinny
Book Zetta
Unlosing Ranger
Future Castile
Asagi
>>337902293
it's not like I can't just play Makai Kingdom on my PS2
but I do want the PSP port additions in english
>>337902354
Fans did that two years ago. Get with the times.
gbatemp.net/threads/phantom-kingdom-portable-english-translation.365313/
>>337902479
I thought this was one of those "We'll get to it eventually" things like Digimon world Redigitize or Phantasy Star Portable 2 Infinity
>>337902354
You can emulate the fan translation
>>337902531
It was for a while (a long, long while), but it's practically complete now.
I just learned moonrunes in the time it took to wait for a translation instead. It was less painful that way.
>>337893381
Makai Kingdom and Phantom Brave were overall pretty meh though. PB at least has a kinda interesting story. Soul Nomad or la Pucelle are infinitely better.
>>337903941
>Calls games meh
>says La pucelle isn't
it's slow as fucking balls. In fact if you play Ragnarok and get any of the new attacks, they blow the old ones out of the water which are slow as shit, pretty boring in the first place and make too much use of hammer noises
>>337900797
>Wanting Blue Roses
Anon, please. That game played like shit and the story was shit. At least let them port their decent games from the PS2 era.
if they bring over we meet again, i'll buy that bundle
>>337904016
>it's slow as fucking balls
But at least LP plays decently even if slow. MK and PB can't even do that right.
>>337904181
they said it's the Wii Version with the PSP additions ported to it.
Chances of a Drakenguard 3 port?
>they release them in order
D5 confirmed in 2018? I mean we are still going to wait for makai kingdom, makai wars, disgaea 3, disgaea 4, disgaea dd2 and possibly some others every 6 months
>>337906113
>makai wars
>>337906113
>makai wars
why
>>337904409
SE, so it's possible.
They're porting everything right now.
>>337893381
Wish the story wasn't fucking shit.
>"HA HA I killed your waifu"
>The End
>>337893015
what the fuck who thought this would be a good idea
>>337893590
No one can handle this much ass.
So everything I remember from that leak is becoming real. Anything else that still needs confirmation besides EDF?
>>337913069
I hope mustard memers don't get a hold of edf 2bh
Cool, so I take it Disgaea PC sold well enough?
>>337913069
Journey was officially denied by the devs and Half-Life 3 is what it is.
Also EDF4.1 was listed as "Earth Defence Forth", so take that for what you will.
>>337913451
This was in that Steamdb leak about 6 months ago.
