Disgaea:
- PS2
- PSP
- DS
- Android

sooner or later you know iphone will join too if you wanna split 'em instead of just making it 'cell phones/tablets.'

Disgaea 2 is lucky - only PS2 and PSP. for now.
Disgaea 3 is PS3 and Vita. for now. place your bets for 3DS.
Disgaea 4 just came out. but everyone knows it'll be on Vita too.

Phantom Brave?
PS2
Wii
PSP
that's all for now.

Makai Kingdom, PS2 and PSP.

La Pucelle, PS2 only for now and... that's it for some weird reason. even Rhapsody managed to get PS1/DS going for it, and nobody cares about Rhapsody. but that's a hell of a lot of ports (and i'm not even including the Gust games), especially for Disgaea. an 8 year old game will be on 4 different platforms soon. pretty impressive! can't think of another game that's done that since the NES days outside of FF4. meanwhile Phantom Brave, 7 years old, is on 3. that's been done a lot more often, but is still fairly rare.

The mobile Disgaea game isn't a port. It's basically just a free item world thing with DLC characters you can buy I guess.

You forgot about La Pucelle Ragnarok, although that was supposedly made for new endings to tie in more with their post Disgaea games and possibly set up sequels.

Rhapsody DS was had the entire battle system changed to the one in its two sequels and even includes part of those games as bonus scenarios... but they were removed from the US version.

Soul Nomad hasn't been ported to anything.

And it's silly to compare a couple ports to Falcom where some of the games probably have about a dozen different versions.

It's understandable that they port. It's only not cool when SE does it.

i didn't forget la pucelle ragnorak.
i didn't know it existed. >_>; a PSP game we're never getting huh.

and Falcom's been around for what, 20+ years making games since their main breakthrough with Ys? NIS broke through with Disgaea 8 years ago. you give them the time and you can see that number double easy.
