Atlus is probably one of the most important Japanese publishers/developer studios. This could come to a bidding war.

No game of them sold more than 1 million. I think we overestimate the importance of Atlus. They seem to be consistent profitable though, that is a feat not every dev is able to do.

atlus IPs are known for their strength in selling consoles, not game copies.

EDIT: Oh and Catherine was their first game to break 1m according to them.

So people bought the Vita for P4G? (cause I did)

yep. I bought at launch though, and my bff bought his when p4 came out. We both got special editions.

Also I bought my DS for trauma center, and then my next game was smt.

Yeah, I think Nintendo shouldn't buy Atlus. P4G did well on the Vita so P5 would do just as well, right?
