Where's Disgaea 3? Why isn't it on the bundle?

[Sardorim]

Did it just never get a PC port?

[KarmaTheAlligator]

Correct, it never got a PC port.

[Sardorim]

what the...

[KarmaTheAlligator]

From what I heard, it's the least popular, so maybe that's why.

It's a PS3 thing. It's a lot of work to port from, so they need to expect decent profits from a port before they deem it worth the effort.

D1 and D2 were on the PS2, and D4 and D5 were on the PS4. That's why they got ported. Disgaea 3 and Disgaea Dimension 2 were PS3 titles, and neither of them has a sales expectancy comparable to the games they've ported.

Disgaea 4 was a PS3 game.
Why the heck did you think it was on the PS4?!?!
I literally own a copy for my PS3!
I beat it on my PS3.

That is correct, it was a PS3 game, but it was later released on PS4 and the Switch, and it was that version which was ported to PC a year later. Meanwhile, Disgaea 3 is available on the PS3 and Vita only.

Oh. Okay. Sorry, I was confused.

[ODINSHO]

Was wondering that myself. Thanks for the answer all...still lame that it's missing though!

Also the PS4/Switch version of Disgaea4 is probably built off of a port of the Vita version.

Well duh. I can't fathom anyone thinking otherwise, especially considering all the content in the Vita version not in the original.

Just stating a fact, don't gotta push your glasses up and be all prickly.
Nobody had even mentioned that the Vita port had more content, so I actually added something to the discussion.
What exactly did your post add?

But then if the port for D4 was made from the Vita game, couldn't they do that as easily for D3?

One assumes so. People seem to have a weird doom and gloom about things that have no actual truth to them.
And then one also assumes, if they can port a game TO the Vita and use that to make a PC (or newer console) port, then no there really isn't some big huge barrier stopping PS3 to PC ports. Extra work, for sure, but not a dealbreaker.

I think it'll come eventually, but D4 was higher prio since it was more popular

Same here. Actually managed to get platinum before my PS3 kicked the bucket. RIP. XD
