Yeah I don't think Nintendo would have green-lighted a game like Catherine. So I don't know if Atlus and Nintendo have compatible visions.
Also Nintendo already has dedicated teams that work on JPRGs (Monolith Soft, Intelligent Systems, Game Freak, etc.) whereas Sony really doesn't have any team. Square Enix used to fill that hole. Honestly Sony is the one that could benefit from it the most especially on the Vita in Japan.
But Nintendo did appear to be willing to expand and so buying Atlus would be a good option.

But I'd rather see Square Enix or Namco buy them. I feel like that's how they would keep as much creative freedom as they currently do.


SMT x Fire emblem though. I dont think Nintendo would allow Sony to get them.

What do we know about that game though? For all we know it's still very early in development and early enough to be canned without big monetary repercussions.  For example many Rareware games were cancelled when Microsoft acquired them.

Or they could agree on finishing the title as is. But I don't know how those things work.
