@MozzerV12: they have a couple of knives, a sort of skull on a pole and a couple of other items I can't remember at the moment. I only played afternoon of Darkness and loved every single playthrough...

Automageddon!

Oh now I see where they'd go!

AxelMinami

The original Disgaea is the only one worth playing, its a SRPG legend. And the answer is NO! you cannot have too much prinny stuff, just like there is NEVER a bad time for prinnies... DOOD!

TalahRama

Is that an evil penguin on the right, you can tell because of the slanty red eyes, and a good penguin on the left, you can tell because he's wearing a scarf, but on the game cover he is holding a sword?!?!

Also what are they carrying in the satchel!? :O

So many questions!!!

MozzerV12

Somewhere, a Witz is happy. So very happy :)

Kazzahdrane

@TalahRama: Really? I thought the second one was the best, while Disgaea 3 was... well, let's not go there.

Pichu0102

@TalahRama: the second and the third have way better gameplay but the chars and story of the first are still untopped.

clumsypanda

So, is the Prinny with the scarf supposed to be Laharl after he died? I haven't played any Disgaea games since the first one, though I loved it to death.

Can't end this post without saying it...DOOD!!!

UltimatePancakeSensation

Those dolls should have an attachable plushy sweat-drop.

katscanne

@Automageddon!: And BOMBS for team attacks. I like bombs...

Antiterra

DO WANT!

There should be a PSP bundle with the game, the plushies and the case.. I would buy it!

CockroachMan

"Can you ever have enough Prinny stuff?"

Short Answer: No.
Long Answer: Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo....

Insomnia Bob

I was hoping this was a contest for them.. but I read further and got lost in the prinnies' eyes.. and then I turned and there was another one.. the redness *_*

Yumayah

good for witz

Badassiousness

@Insomnia Bob: I see what you did there. That was a good ZP indeed. Also, the last one is hilarious (Deus Ex karaoke, FTW!).

Barts

Just wondering, if I put a pin into one of those plushies, will Witzbold say "Aie!"?

Barts

@TalahRama: I agree there were some gameplay enhancements in 2 and 3 but on the whole Hour of Darkness is easily the best overall. I think 2 is inferior but is still a good game, but 3 is an absolute joke.

TalahRama

A bit offtopic but maybe someone here maybe can help me out.

I know I live behind the moon. But still wanna have a fumoffu plush toy - but somehow can't find it anywhere.

[www.phoenix-rider.it]
Its this guy from this anime Full Metal Panic.

Holgerm

Very nice stuff.

The size is about half the size of the previous Prinny plushie stuff they had sold.

The soft case is most excellent. Would be nice if they had made a case for the DS when they released Disgaea.

Witzbold

What was bad about the third game? I haven't seen much of it...

Ashurahori

@Combichristoffersen: Would that be a life size inflatable Etna?

The only thing my life is missing are prinny plushies.

evening-aura

me thinks Kotaku has a new unoffical mascot plush now!

huginn

Prinnies? Pffft. Give me a life-sized Etna doll, and we'd be talking.

Combichristoffersen

@Insomnia Bob: Wait, I read that recently in a game, where? I can't remember!!!

Automageddon!

I don't even LIKE disgaea and I think those are cute toys...

Ajh

@Darth_Kupi: The reincarnation of souls sent to hell for their evil lives. If they're good, they can reach heaven. (IIRC)

They're from the disgaea games, and they're additional characters for your squad. Dood.

AndyboyH

@evening-aura:
..Why not one inflatable Etna doll and one regular doll? *bliss*

Combichristoffersen

So what the hell IS a prinny?

Aside from looking like a goofy blue penguin.

Darth_Kupi

@clumsypanda: Yeah, pretty much. The third has the best gameplay and the second-best story. Disgaea 2 is the "clunker" but only relatively so - it's still a ton of fun.

DorkimusPrime

@AndyboyH: Wow.
Thats....err.....good to know.

From a JRPG right.

Yeahhhhhh.........I think I'll go back to being indifferent about prinnys.

Or prinii, or whatever the plural is. :)

Darth_Kupi

Is it bad that I find it mildly amusing that Witzbold was the one to be credited for the tip?

Regardless, that Prinny swag looks awesome. Do the Plushies explode? More importantly, will Kotaku have Prinny contest where we can win some of that swag??

C'mon, doods!

bean is all work and no play

I so want all of that!!

Frologic

@Witzbold: Question is would you be able to fit inside the soft and most intimate (PSP) case that a prinny would ask for?

Neko_Tech

@UltimatePancakeSensation: for me the end suffix for prinnies will always be ~su!

Neko_Tech

@AxelMinami: You stick it up WHERE???

Neko_Tech

@Kazzahdrane: Only if someone gave him that yes... Witz would be.

Well I'm surprised that this isn't price gouging merchandise that usually comes with it. Witz can buy this with what ever prinnies get paid with.

I pray that this will be released outside of Nipon.

Neko_Tech

@Holgerm: If that looks too difficult try this site [benippon.com] and go under requests and see if they can find it and order it but it'll probably cost you even more if it's too hard to get.

Remember if it's popular here that's from Japan most likely the fad has died and most of their merchandise is hard to get because they no longer sell them.

Because of that I shamefully admit I watch fan subbing of the new anime lineup and then pre-order the figures and plushy ASAP because the longer you wait the harder and more pricier in the end (usually).

Neko_Tech

@Holgerm: That's Bonta-kun and I believe that Lucky Star the character Tsukasa like to hug when the whole group are talking in their room.

Yes I too want a decent size plushy of Bonta-kun (FMP series) and Ryo-oki (Tenchi Muyo series) as well.

I never used this site before since there rarely any time that I needed to find something so rare that I must have since I either get it when offered at some import shop online or have a friend do it.

[www.akibado.com] - You can type what your looking for and picture and although it's a auction site I do believe that they can find online retail store so you don't have to bid.

If you do try it please PM me and tell me how it went.

Neko_Tech

NERDGASM in 3, 2, 1...

Daisuash

Yes.

We got too much Prinny stuff at about Disgaea 2. NIS, please start making relevant, innovative, fun games again.

CommentatorHatman

Not only does Wits own all of that stuff, but he is in the process of altering his own DNA to become a Prinny

LordChris915

@Neko_Tech: Actually that is my stuff.

Witzbold

Whatever... give me Plenair!!!
Kidding... I'm playing japanese Prinny, and it was fun for a while, but I think I don't have patience enough for games you have to replay a level several times to get perfect moves to kill bosses...

Bokusatsu_Tenshi

It's an exploding penguin.

See. That's all you need to know.

yanipheonu

@Ashurahori: Nothing's bad about the third game, just a lot of spite for it being PS3 exclusive.

It's a fantastic game and one of the better exclusives.

HikariOblivion

@Combichristoffersen: chrishansen.jpg

;)

GohanGVO

@UltimatePancakeSensation: Actually, it's the other way around. The angry red-eyed Prinny up there is Laharl (you can't really see his hair antennae in this photo). There's nothing special about the scarfed Prinny except for the fact that he's the game's main character.

urutapu

Do want

zero_kirby

@MozzerV12:

and cigarettes and lotto tickets.

Kazaam_McFresh

@UltimatePancakeSensation: @UltimatePancakeSensation: Laharl doesn't die

ShibaniDolabella

@Ashurahori: 3rd game is great, I'm just passed 150 hrs.

Megaman LXIX

Must... have... prinnys...

electricv01

@TalahRama:

I love all three games. And even though I don't really care for the power leveling up system in 3, but I still think the game overall is definitely a million times better than half games released today on any console. Disgaea 1 and 2 are classics. ^_^

electricv01

@Witzbold: So your paid with prinny merchandise?

Neko_Tech

I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it I want it ..... it's so cute!!!!
