Compile Heart never disappoints, so I'm excited to see an official announcement for this game

They also haven't made a good game.

In your opinion perhaps.

Well perhaps he can help them to stop producing crap.

Also isn't it rumored that he took a good chunk on NIS with him?

That's the rumor, and I'm thinking its real from what I heard of behind the scenes. Hope NIS can bounce back from this and all this doesn't effect NISA too badly.

I must be missing something. It does not say he left NIS. It just says he signed a contract with compile hearts to do one game, a handheld title at that.

NIS is set at least through the year with D2, Fate Paradox.

Compile Heart and NIS strike me as being pretty close, after all they both co developed Neptunia. Not to mention NIS published Mugen Souls.

Its not unheard of, of developers occasionally going free lance, especially for one title.

Like I said its for one game, a handheld, he didn't sign a contract to permanently join Compile Hearts.

Even if he did who cares.

Compile Hearts makes good games, so you can still play them.

NIS is not going anywhere, and Disgaea was a collaborative effort by a lot of people kind of like Gundam, rather then being the brain child of any one person; and one of the other big contributors to Disgaea is only NIS' president.

I just strikes me as some of you are making a big deal out of nothing, I read it as a new jrpg with potential for the VITA. And I can't complain about that.

He was a full time employee at NIS. Now he's not. The two games you mentioned have already seen release in Japan too.

Yamamoto's profile specifically states that in 2013, he and his friends chose to develop games in a new environment. It's pretty clear that he left NIS and took some colleagues with him.
