Nippon Ichi and DS sitting on a tree...

The japanese developer Nippon Ichi (NIS) known for Disgaea has released a financial report that indicates they're developing a US-exclusive DS game. Previous rumours of a Disgaea for DS are seeming more and more realistic.

NIS usually develops for Sony consoles and is well known for making good games that value gameplay instead of graphic power, so it seems like a good match for Nintendo. We'll let you know something as soon as we know.
