Forums - Nintendo Discussion - (Theory Article) Atlus Bankruptcy: Nintendo Will Buy Shin Megami Tensei Developer; Persona 5 Wii U A Serious Possibility

I think it would be cool if nintendo bought it (anyone that's not capcom will be ok -_-) but frankly i don't think they are in the position to do so



Around the Network

It's a misleading title for sure.

If Nintendo buy Atlus.....remember the backlash on Bayonetta 2 being exclusive......expect that, but BIGGER!!!


The backlash on that was only because of people ignorant on the situation.  Bayonetta 2 was gonna get canned then Nintendo saved it, if it wasn't on Wii U then it wouldn't even exist.  In this case ya people will go ape shit if Persona 5 is exclusive to Wii U XD.

Ninty is, Capcom isn't. Namco also is.

If it is to happen... I would like Namdai to do it. That would be the best scenario. Second best - Konami, Sony, Ninty.



Oh I forgot to add that the author is looking too much into the $30 credit deal. My guess is the reason why Nintendo is doing that is because of the crossover game.

But if Nintendo did get them then I'm going to be picking up a Wii U sooner rather than later!



I don't see how Atlus has been any closer to Nintendo than they have to Sony. That doesn't really make any sense. I also don't see why they would discount Microsoft or anyone else buying Atlus.

Personally, I hope Atlus can remain independent. It wouldn't be right for those Nintendo and Sony exclusives to suddenly jump over to another console.

this is bogus, VERY misleading tittle and NO info whatsoever. change the tittle to "i think nintendo should buy atlus"

Yeah, that's what I read as well. It's no different than a forum post.

And really, Atlus isn't closer to Nintendo than they are to Sony. I doubt either of those two will buy Atlus.
