1 - That's good news
But I hope there's a full translation later. But anyways. I hope they bring D3 over to the US. I want that game. the Disgaea series are "popular" here.

Seriosly, Ps2 and Ps1 had a truckload of RPG's!

So far Ps3 has enchanted arms,Oblivion..Marvel Alliance and I guess Folklore.

Marvel Alliance and Foklore to me I wouldn't consider RPG's, yet they somehow fall under the genre. So that leads Ps3 owners with perhaps 2 rpg's this year FF13 (2008?), Eternal sonata and White Knight Stories.

This generation sure is backwards, with the 360 having more RPGS and the PS3 getting more First person shooters this year then the 360.

For some reason though, RPGs don't appear on a Sony system in full force until after a Final Fantasy game. The PSP is the only one which doesn't fall in that category because I got quite a few good ones and Crisis Core still hasn't released outside of Japan yet.

4.1 - That would be Vanillaware
The developers are working on a Wii title ;(

But I read in an interview before Odin Sphere came out, they had all the artwork in high-res. Re-release through PSN store please ;D

Yarr I want Oboro Masamune Youtouden, I hope it rocks as much as Odin Sphere did. VanillaWare slipped my mind as the devs because of NIS publishing their games. I hope they do follow up with OS and Grim Grimoire, 2 underrated games from last year.

Why not. Disgaea 3 sold pretty well on the PS3 in Japan so I would think they would develop more games on the PS3. Not like they cost that much to make anyway.

Well, they only have to learn once... The actual development of D3 took only one year...

Any good RPG is welcome on the PS3 and/or PSP (especially the PSP, I finish games faster on a handheld) but don’t take forever making them (or bringing them to the states) please.
