It seems Nippon Ichi wants to give its Disgaea fans some options when it comes to purchasing the game. Depending on your level of commitment/obsession there are three different versions already available for pre-order at Rosenqueen.com. Here are the three versions, their content, and prices:
| Possible Bonus | Alma Mater Set | Delinquent Pride Set | No. 1 Honor Student Set |
| Game Disc + OST | O | O | O |
| Main Theme CD | O | O | O |
| Game Guide | X | O | O |
| Digital Media Disc | X | X | O |
| OST | X | X | ? |
| Artbook | X | X | ? |
| Flag | X | X | ? |
| Price | $49.99 | $69.98 | $89.97 |
*UPDATE* The “?“’s mean that either the OST, Artbook or Flag will be included at random in the No. 1 Honor Student Set. If you are willing to take your chances and end up with the flag that is probably worth about a dollar, good luck! Hopefully everyone ends up with what they want.
Personally, I am just going to buy my already pre-ordered, ordinary version from Gamestop. My reason is simple: I want to play Disgaea 3 as soon as humanly possible. If I pre-order from Rosenqueen.com, it has to get shipped to me which means about 1-2 days before I get to play it. Instead I will probably be camped outside of Gamestop waiting for the shining golden UPS truck to get there. And in case you’re wondering… I took the day off of work. Is that sad?
It is worth mentioning that the Alma Mater Set is the exact same price as purchasing the game in any store, so if you don’t mind the wait, might as well get a bonus CD. Although there is still the price of shipping.
So, are you a Alma Mater, Delinquent or Honor Student?

How do you pronounce Disgaea?
Also, I’ll be getting the Honor Student set, just because I love special editions and the useless crap it comes with it.
It’s DIS-guy-uh… hope that makes sense. It’s basically like the oposite of gaia–hence Dis-gaea/gaia. That’s how I always think about it anyway.
I am glad to see that North American is getting more quality special editions. Enjoy the set man!
So the Honor Student version comes with an artbook and a CD that has all the artwork on it?
Well, I guess that saves time for art archives, in any case.
Alright, thanks. I’ve been saying it DIS-gay-uh.
Also it’s worth to mention that, for the Honor Student Set, only one of the three items (OST, Artbook, Flag) are included in your set, and it’s included randomly.
I swear that has been updated since I made that post. Not sure why but I think Rosenqueen/NIS changed the contents since then. Too bad huh. The Japanaese pronunciation is DIS-guy-uh so that what I am basing it off of but to be honest, I have heard both.
@Jink:
OST, Artbook, or Flag?
Seems to me 33% of buyers will be getting a fairly bum deal.
I do agree that it would blow hard if you got the flag. Something that inexpensive should just be included no matter what in my opinion.
I mean, it costs 20 more dollars…and you might get a flag for that?
lol, yea and the flag kinda looks like it’s made of paper and a stick. It also mentions that they are the same ones from the Japanese release, maybe leftovers. Possible cost to NIS = $0.00, possible cost to you $20.00.
