But gaining a lot of followers on different platforms doesn't really matter if you don't make your games multiplat.  Let's say NIS followed the same route and started making some games for 3DS and Wii, if those weren't just ports why would it be any different from just making those same games on the platforms they already have experience with?  If branching out is the only way a company can gain a great reputation why do Nintendo and Sony's studios have great reputations?  Atlus gained a great reputation and has released on multiple platforms, but I don't think the two are as related as the OP likes to think.

Oh sure, I don't think going multiplatform really would'e made all that much difference for N1.  I'm just saying, a lot of the goodwill towards Atlus comes from their support of systems other than just PS2.
