Hey now. Shining the Holy Ark was good. Shining Ark is the shittastic one.
Also, Tony Taka now the official artist of Atlus. Official hentai pictures of Persona characters all day everyday.

Asks questions so Ezalc doesn't have to
Are you sure about this? I don't see that in the Nikkei article scanning it over on my own or through a Google translation...
Eh... Where do you see this?

Its funny because both of those exist already, although I'm not sure I'd you knew that or not
The people freaking out about Atlus making mobile games clearly have little knowledge about the company.

This is why Nintendo should have brought them, they would never do smartphone games

But no, Segata Sanshiro is going to fucking judo throw everyone at Atlus USA into oblivion because they only bought Atlus to make games for Japan

Specifically, it says Sega Sammy wants to use Atlus's assets effectively, including (but not limited to) Smartphone games.
Actually, this could seriously work. Atlus games would be fine on iOS and/or Android. I was recently thinking about P3P being ported for iOS. Considering its already gimped version of P3, and with the way it works I'd be perfect for a smartphone.

Huh. I actually think this is promising news, so long as Sega doesn't fuck things up. Atlus USA should now be able to localise Sega's niche games on a far smaller budget than Sega would've.
When it comes over to Europe, yeah for sure.

I just can't. The last, best hope for a western JRPG fan is done.
So can we assume that SMTIV, EO1 remake and maybe Persona 5 are the last in the series for the west?

Fuck it! At least I'll finally get to play it.
No it obviously means they only want Atlus to make phone games, gaming is over.
Calm the fuck down people.
NOOOO!!! ;_;
shhhhhhhh, we can't let reality get in the way of our Sega hate.

Except add in micro transactions everywhere and the ability to buy Personas.
Well, I'm guessing it means they want to dedicate more resources towards smartphone games.
And that would mean next to no localization of the games.
Ragnarok Odyssey Ace was GameArts.
Even has Grandia crossover items in it - http://www.siliconera.com/2013/07/3...randia-soul-sacrifice-dead-or-alive-and-more/
