Another day, another Disgaea it seems. NIS America is readying another port of its PlayStation 2 strategy RPG Disgaea: Hour of Darkness, this time on the Nintendo DS.



Sure, it's a fine game, but it looks like there's some wasted potential in the DS port—or at least wasted screen real estate.

What may ultimately ship as Disgaea DS is planned for Summer and may appeal to folks who've never played the PlayStation 2 or PSP versions.



It's not much to look at, but if you're somehow psyched for another go and find a handful of new features appealing, read the press release for maximum information.

In order to fully utilize Nintendo DS's capabilities several key improvements will be made to the user interface and game system.

Disgaea for the Nintendo DS will arrive in North America in the summer of 2008. About Disgaea DS 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 following are some of the special features of Disgaea DS:  * Geo Panels - A group of stat altering elemental properties that are placed upon certain parts of the battlefield.

When there are one or more colored panels on the battle grid, it means an element can affect that area.

The effect can boost or reduce your unit's stats. * Geo Cubes - A new addition to the PSP version, Geo Cubes are magic items that add more depth to multiand#8208;player battles.

You can use the various Geo Cubes to enhance your abilities, summon monsters, or even attack your enemies with them.

* Demon Gadgets - Randomly generated items that appear on the battlefield.

By acquiring these gadgets, you can powerand#8208;up your units. Some demon gadgets can level your unit up by 30 levels at once.

* Transmigration - A form of reincarnation that allows you to start over from level 1, but your unit will grow stronger than before.
