I say neither of them, SONY needs mor Japanese developers under there belt.. they wrere used to Japanese developers flocking to them by default tey felt they had that covered even actually owning them. SONY needs to stop ignoring Japan and there western Otaku because they in the end, if SONY wishes to top 360 Japan will be the Key to SONY success.

Buy Square Enix.. :)

SONY could buy SE if they wanted + I would MUCH rather them buy ATLUS or NIPPON ICH, GUST, small time developers with lots of talent but little budget, SE has lost Soul in which made them great now the have a EA mindset.

I can totally see Sony buying Atlus but I wonder if Atlus would want that..

They do have a great relationship and Atlus made some of the greatest games on the PS1 and PS2 and published Demon's Souls in the US... I also believe Persona 5 will be a PS3 exclusive

It would be a great addition to Sony but talking about the need of Japan, I think it pretty obvious Square Enix will be a better choice financially

Can you imagine Sony getting the rights for Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and Kingdom Hearts? That would be crazy..

I actually think Sony is big enough to buy any Japanease publisher (Except Nintendo of course haha) .. Maybe it would be a good time to do so! They are pretty much all hurt financially no?

SONY could turn in stronger direction.. just because there niche now doesn't destined them to always be niche..and no SONY cannot buy SE...Atlus yes
