Why do I get the sense people are blaming their support for Sony as the reason for going out of business instead of their shitty business and bad games.


  Because they belive that releasing something on HD system automatically ads one zero to the cost of producing game no matter how crappy it looks :)

I'd imagine it's more because NIS has put 99% of their focus on Sony platforms this gen.  The Nintendo platforms did get a few ancient ports though.

You are so annoying. Nippon has 3 Issues the 1st is There Nichest of Niche and they willingly stay there, There games have such a small target audience you need a microscope to see it. They need to consider creating games with a broader appeal, GUST and ATLUS are bot Niche too but they definitely have more penetration and sell moderately well for being Niche SONY focused developers. 2nd is the Budget behind there there titles, Nippon is gonna have too step up and a risk of developing a better engine when GUST went to PS3 Altelier Iris and Ar Tonelico 3 got new engines and 3D for the 1st time - they still dont looks as good as some of the budget titles but it definitely helps at giving there game a chance to sell to ppl who blow it off because its 2D, it paid off with Altelier Rorona highest selling game in the lonb running series. They cannot continue to put these PS2 lookin games on PS3 and Xxpect alot of atention. 3rd is less ports more new work, ports never sell better the originals we already the issues.... basically stop trying this a SONY thing and look at choices the company, there putting themselves in this situation. GUST, ATLUS are primary SONY are doing good.

Atlus is primarily DS if anything this gen (SMT, Etrian Odyssey, Trauma Center) with a little Wii (more Trauma Center) on the side.  Where are you getting this "Sony focus" from?  Their PSP ports and a lot of NOTHING for PS3?  Atlus pretty clearly jumped ship to Nintendo this gen, and throwing secondary support to PSP.

Also, don't misunderstand me, I think NIS would be in the same spot had Prinny been on DS and Disgaea 3 on Wii instead.  I definitely agree the problem with NIS is their content and practices, not their platform selection.

Also, Rorona isn't the best selling game in the series, though it did pretty well for itself.  AT3 will be the best selling in it's series though.
