NIS America's description for each game:

"Disgaea: Netherworld Unbound"


"This game builds upon the original Disgaea�s intuitive battle system and quirky storyline, with an engine optimized for Android cell phones. Disgaea�s game system is simple yet addictive. It has the same basic concept as other strategy RPGs, but uses many unique features and enhancements that make this game unprecedented. The Android version of Disgaea has been streamlined, but it will keep the same gameplay we all know and love."


As a Android user myself, I am looking forward to seeing how well they incorporate this type of game on the Android and what devices it will play best with. I am also wondering what system it will be compatable with since it's release date is this winter and ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) is making it's way sometime near the end of this year.

"Disgaea 3: Absence of Detention"



"Disgaea�3 is the third game in the Disgaea� series, a hardcore, turn-based strategy RPG series made popular on the PlayStation�3 and PlayStation�Portable. In Disgaea�, character units have a limit to their movement and attack ranges based on level and weapons equipped. There are other special game systems that let you take advantage of the 3D battle map, many of which are unique to the Disgaea� series.

Some of key features in the game are "Geo Blocks" which are cube-shaped terrain-altering objects allow players to manipulate a stage�s rules and reach enemies that would normally be out of reach. "Geo Panels" that are colored panels will appear on the game map and will bestow various effects depending on which Geo Blocks are placed on them. Drop a Geo Block on one panel, and every panel of the same color will share that Block�s effect, which can range from EXP bonuses to unit damage, or even invincibility. And "Item World", a set of special randomly-generated battle stages exist within each and every item you find. Clearing these stages will allow you to boost that item�s power."

The game is scheduled for a Spring 2012 release.
