I wonder if SCEJ, SCEA and FROM are all in a state of shock at its stateside reception? One thing seems certain, SCEA probably regrets passing on the localization in favor of letting a 3rd party ( Atlus ) publish it. Imagine the sales if SCEA had brought it, and actually done a real marketing push. I am sure Atlus has to be pleased though. |
There can be no doubt they are all in aww (add Atlus to the list too). No marketting, no real hype, nothing at all and look at what has become of a game that might not have even come to the US (highly probable that it would never have made it out of Japan if not for Atlus stepping in)
There is no praise higher for ANY game than to sell more copies than you could have ever imagined (like the sellouts they had, with Atlus APPOLOGIZING for not making enough copies of the game) When it beats even their high expectations, you know you have something special on your hands.
Congratz Atlus and From Software. You deserve the praise and we are all Proud of You.
