Hoo boy, this one is rough. Disgaea Hour of Darkness is hands down one of my favorite games of all time and this version is... We'll start with the good stuff. It has all the content of the PSP version plus more Quality of Life options like faster movement speed options. The unique features of the DS are also great, I especially love the map screen and in general making good use of the dual screens to give additional information. The cons? The graphics, sound and performance are absolutely horrible. Everything is blurry and extra pixelated, the game has the frame rate of an N64 game and it chugs terribly in the item world. Even navigating the menus (Which you do a lot since this is a strategy game) is often laggy and unresponsive, ESPECIALLY in the item world. The music is also terrible, either being horribly compressed or bad midi remixes of the original soundtrack. As a cherry on top, almost voice acting has been removed, leaving you to wonder why they even left the scant few pieces of it in. Now back in the day, I'd say it was a serviceable port if it was your only option to play the game, but these days it's just a novelty. Much better versions of the game are freely available and my rating is largely influenced by the strength of the original release. Only check this one out if you're a huge fan of the game like me and are interesting in seeing the unique aspects of this port.
