Maybe Disgaea and Phantom Brave were their 1st two games, because looking at my games, it looks like Disgaea was 2003 and Phantom was 2004.
I'm not sure if there was anything before Disgaea or between the 2 of them.

^ Who (which company) was Atlus localizing the game for?

Was it that Nippon Ichi existed (in Japan) - but they just hadn't started anything in America yet?

Exactly. They didn't have a base in America yet. Orliatzu is right. And there were many NIS Japan games that came out before Disgaea, specifically the Marl Kingdom games, and La Pucelle. Phantom Brave was the very first NIS America endeavor.

Okay.
I've got it.
That makes sense, then, that my copy of La Pucelle says 2002 (and Mastiff) on it
Sometimes, Vampko, I see (in your sig). "La Pucelle: Ragnarok"...
...What is that, exactly?...
...A sequel or expansion to Tactics?
Thanks!

I'm gonna take out my LPR sigs now, thanks for reminding me.
