Before the ink even had time to dry on the game's announcement for Japan, NIS America this afternoon confirmed plans to bring the Nintendo DS version of its popular turn-based strategy series Disgaea to North America this summer. While lacking a colorful title beyond the presumably tentative Disgaea DS, the game is nonetheless described as simply "a new edition" of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness.
NIS America promises "several key improvements" over 2003's PlayStation 2 original. However, the announcement also confirms our grumblings from earlier this week regarding the game being just another pass at the first game rather than a wholly new tactical strategy adventure, much like last year's Disgaea: Afternoon of Darkness for the PSP. Even so, given that the DS is practically tailor made for games of this type, Disgaea in any form feels like a natural fit for Nintendo's portable. We just hope the battery can hold out while we grind to level 9999.

These enhancements include multiplayer games with expanded personalization features, brand new special Bankai moves, 30 new Spirit Cards, power-enhancing crystals, as well as seven new gameplay modes. The BLEACH: Dark Souls storyline takes place in between seasons one and two of the animated series and was created exclusively for the game.
The BLEACH: Dark Souls game for Nintendo DS will mark the expansion of a dynamic cast of over 40 playable characters including Rukia, Kon and hero Ichigo. Gamers can spend hours furiously fighting while unlocking individual character stories, all based on an exclusive story arc created for BLEACH: Dark Souls.
“With an exclusive storyline, an expanded playable character roster and spectacular new Bankai moves, BLEACH: Dark Souls is set to build upon the critical success of BLEACH: Blade of Fate,” said Don Mesa, Director of Marketing, SEGA of America, Inc. “The BLEACH franchise continues to gain momentum with anime fans and gamers alike in North America and SEGA is there to create a robust and exciting gaming experience that stays true to its anime roots.”
“We are thrilled to once again partner with SEGA for the development of BLEACH: Dark Souls on Nintendo DS,” states Linda Espinosa, Vice President, Content Management, VIZ Media. “SEGA games have enjoyed immense success in North America, BLEACH is a top seller in both Japan and the US, and we are expecting great fan response when BLEACH: Dark Souls releases with a multitude of new and exclusive features.”

For the first time ever, players will be able to assume the role of Evil Hollows, adding a new twist for gamers to explore.

UPDATE - PROVEN TO BE A SCAM.
Sadly Sega dont own the domain and the company that does have affiliate links and are using the domain to get your emails and more, check via comments for all the detailed information, lets hope Sega Kick their arses. Do not give your email to these people.
...
It seems that SEGA of Japan just updated their Dreamcast website at Dreamcast.com
By clicking on this image, you'll be taken to dreamcast.com/apps/ucp.php
Dreamcast users can register there with a user account for their console's serial number and will get an account @user.dreamcast.com.
The image linked to above is called "dc_promo_2008" which obviously hints to the fact that SEGA might be celebrating the 10th birthday of the Dreamcast this year.
If you ever wanted to show SEGA that you are still out there playing your Dreamcast, now is the time!by Published on March 8th, 2008 06:25

Dear visitors,
We want to keep it short - we need a Pixel Graphics Artist for Giana’s Return to get things finished. We can not pay anything, we can only offer you fame (aka credits) and donations shares (if there will be any). Please keep in mind that this project is HOBBY & FUN for the team, nevertheless we want to see it in good condition and fully finished the next few weeks.
Your job would be:
* Cleaning Pixel Graphics
* Drawing minor objects
* Adjusting GFX Sets to match a theme
* Able to deal with color limitations
As the engine is already done, you wont have too much freedom (but a bit).
If you want to help, please write an email to the project organizer at shahzad(DOT)sahaib(AT)web(DOT)de - preferable with some sample work, or a link with sample work.
Thanks a lot!

Hello everyone! Being a big fan of the series The Lost Missing, I left for my first homebrew to be an adaptation of the countdown timer (season 2) present in the bunker.
The goal of the game:
The counter part of 108 minutes. Once in 4 minutes, an alarm sounded: you must enter the code! But what code? Well the figures cursed: 4 8 15 16 23 42 (course). If you enter the code in time, bravo! You have saved the world once again and restart the computer. But be careful not to let the counter down to 0, otherwise everybody will die!
You feel ready for this mission? So let's go!
History:
V 1.0 07/03/2008
Other versions coming!
How to play:
A keyboard is placed at your disposal. When the alarm sounds, enter the code "4 8 15 16 23 42" and then "enter" and the computer restarts. Fun, eh?
