Phantom Brave pushed out to August for Japanese voices

May 30th, 2009 by Jason Dobson

Brace yourselves. The upcoming port of Phantom Brave won’t possess Wii consoles in June as expected. Now, assuming you survived that Prinny Bomb, NIS America says in its press release (PDF link) that the delay will allow the niche publisher to put the oft-requested Japanese voice-over track back into the game.

It’s a gift, however, that requires some “extra programming and debugging,” and players looking forward to the moody strategy game will now have to wait until August 4 to get their grinding fix.

Nippon Ichi signs up for Wii, Disgaea a tantalizing possibility

November 7th, 2008 by Chris Greenhough

Filed under: ,

We already knew that Nippon Ichi would have some kind of presence on the Wii (news of an NIS WiiWare game, Let’s Hitchhike, was leaked last month), but now Nippon Ichi and Nintendo’s platform are a super official couple, because the publisher has signed up as a Wiiware and Wii developer.

It’s the “and Wii developer” bit which is significant here. Naturally, the first property which springs to mind where Nippon Ichi is concerned is Disgaea. The company has been only too happy to spread the series across multiple formats (some would say it’s been spread too thinly), so the world’s best-selling home console seems like a logical next stop. Make it happen, NIS!
