So apparently our previous prediction was horribly wrong, though you can bet NIS America (NISA) will be bringing Disgaea 2 Portable to the States sometime in the near future. NISA will be bringing over Yuusha no Kuse Ni Namaikida, localized as Holy Invasion of Privacy, Badman! What Did I Do to Deserve This? The basic premise of the game is to protect Badman from wannabe heroes who are entering his lair to defeat him. As the God of Destruction, your job is to dig an underground labyrinth filled with demon and monster traps. The game will be released later this year in July but for now, you can head over to the official site for more information.
NIS America notified us yesterday that they would be announcing later today about a new Playstation Portable (PSP) game coming over stateside described as unique and fun. Our best guess would have to be the recently released Disgaea 2 Portable for the PSP in Japan. We'll update this post as soon as we receive word of the release information.
Update: Looks like we were horribly wrong! Happy late April Fools?
