NIS America, a subsidiary of Nippon Ichi Software, has announced it will be attending this year's PAX West in Seattle, WA from 30th August to 2nd September.
It promises to "heat up" the show with six playable titles. One of these is a "mystery title" that has not yet been announced. Three of the titles currently on the list are already Switch bound:
The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel III, Disgaea 4 Complete+, Utawarerumono: ZAN, Destiny Connect: Tick-Tock Travelers, The Alliance Alive HD Remastered, and one mystery title that’s yet to be announced...
If you play one of the demos at the NIS America booth located on Level 6 of the show floor, you'll receive a special pin. Anyone who preorders a game will receive a special poster. There is also a prize up for grabs if players can overcome a "special game challenge" tied to the mystery title and a Stamp Rally where you can collect four themed penny designs.
For more information, check out the NIS America website.

Sometimes I feel like I'm playing Splatoon with these comments. Like, what? No comments? I've got to paint the ground my color!
Splat!
,
I can hope for a surprise Disgaea 6 announcement. But it's probably not that. Looking forward to Disgaea 4 coming to Switch.
@60frames-please you forgot to ask for the new game to be 60FPS! You're slacking man! lol
HOTEL MARIO 2 BABYYY
Danganronpa Trilogy for Switch! (I hope!)
@RedderRugfish Yeah, or maybe it's like Mario 99 kids with Splatoon. We're all on our own 1 person team trying to color our individual floorspace. And maybe it's also one of those classic last comment wins things. Gotta get the last word in!
@Heavyarms55 A new Disgaea would be great.
I think it's already covered! The game is Splatoon 99 right here on the comments section, and my phone is scrolling up and down smoothly, so for once no frame rate comment is needed! Incredible gameplay engine Google. Thanks for the smooth game engine (cell phone Chrome)!
I am hoping that they will revive the Prinny series on Switch. i love that platformer games
@nin10doom
Danganrompa is NIS? I thought that it was chunsoft who made and published them.
Please (Pl-Ys) be Ys IX. I'd also love to see Ys Collection (Ys Seven, Oath in Felghana, Memories of Celceta, Origin) or Trails in the Sky Trilogy. Or are the rights to the latter two still held by XSEED?
I already love them for bringing Langrisser west. I wonder what this could beeeeeeeeeeee.
@mauhlin12 All of this are unfortunately unlikely, Falcom recently said that they would like to bring more titles to the Switch, but they are lacking the fubds/manpower for that. A shame, YS VIII is fantastic. In my opinion the best rpg on the switch at the moment.
Lode Runner
or maybe Dragon Code
A new Prinny game would be awesome! Or a Prinny collection!
But what I want most of all is a new Criminal Girls game! I'm calling it now Criminal Girls 3 is Switch exclusive!
@tech7 Unlikely, but there is still a thread of hope. Falcom said it lacked the resources (or gumption) to develop titles for Switch - but it didn't rule out third parties taking over ports. That's what NIS did with Ys VIII. So there's a chance...
@Krull I hope so. They can wait a year, since there are too many games at the moment But I would definitely support more Falcom ports.
@alexybubble Nis America is on the front cover of the PS4 versions, so I'm guessing at least in the US they're the publisher. I don't know their role in development though.
@Diogmites Wow! Did you like Lapis X Labyrinth that much to want a sequel? That's cool to hear, I wanted to give it a shot but have been on the fence about it.
@tech7 I agree that Ys VIII is the best RPG on Switch. As for Falcom, they pretty much have the rhythm down of releasing one new RPG every year for one system in Japan. Right now their system of choice is PS4. The translation, localization and porting are all done by outside studios such as NIS, XSEED, DotEmu, Aksys, heck even Konami brought Ys VI to USA for PS2 back in the day. So even though Falcom won't be developing anything for Switch themselves, those other companies I mentioned (except Konami) must have seen that Falcom games sell on Switch and are lining up to get the rights to bring them over. At least I hope.
@nin10doom You would have to include Ultra Despair Girls for the overall completion of the story though, despite the game being disappointing compared to the main series imo.
@mauhlin12 Trails in the Sky would make my day. I have the first on Vita but since I can't get them all, there is no point investing the time in one title.
@Heavyarms55 Was 5 better than 4?
@RailX I haven't played 4 yet. 5 was my first experience with the series and I loved it. I have been told by other people that 4 was really good.
I tried 1, but since I played 5 first, it just felt like a downgrade.
