Nippon Ichi President says Their New Games For This Year Are For PS4 And Vita Only

In addition to the upcoming release of Disgaea 5, Nippon Ichi president Sohei Niikawa says that fans have more to look forward to with another PlayStation 4 title, and more, as he spoke with 4Gamer about their current lineup of new games.

According to Niikawa, most of the console games they’re working on at the moment are exclusive titles for PlayStation 4. The PlayStation 3 lineup are mainly those that have already been decided to release overseas. That said, their new titles are only for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita.

More games is always good news.

Solid idea. I like it.

yeah!!! :D

does Sony own some of nippon ichi? Most of their games are on Sony consoles.. talk about love

[Spotie]

I don't think so. I think their games have just found their most receptive audience on Sony consoles. According to wikipedia, they go back 20 years developing on Sony hardware, though their first game was for SNES.

They're definitely a company whose works I look forward to when grabbing a PlayStation.

Its about finding your audience. It doesn't help that 360 sold a low amount of consoles in Japan. It's going to be even worse this generation with Xbox One selling around 300 consoles per month in Japan. JRPGs tend sell best in Japan so they go for the console its going to sell on.

No they don't anything from them.

Namco and Ichi has been heavily supporting the Vita.

[TheColbertinator]

PS sells most in Japan. Seems clear to me

[Omeganex9999]

Actually is Nintendo who has the biggest market share in Japan. It's still incredibly popular here, way more than the west.

[OtakuDJK1NG-Rory]

That not saying much. Considering the last non-playstation game developed and released was in 2009 a DS game A Witch's Tale.

Since then it only been PlayStation titles they developed. So it was pretty obvious.

I love Nippon Ichi.
