Gaming - New NIS RPG for PS3 - View Post

I also believe the Sakura Taisen series has been around for 2 generations as well. So that fits the "Couple of generations" quote.

1 on Saturn, 2 on Dreamcast and 3 on PS2 I believe,. 4 I believe was on PC.

Dreamcast and PS2 are of the same gen. So BAM!!! A couple generations. In Japan. Oh how I feel like I am right.

Anyone else hoping for Sakura Taisen V?

But they've never made a Sakura Taisen game. This seems like a game they've developed before.

As for Persona.

PS3 had a Shin Megami tensei game announced.

In 2005. Then nothing.

They'll likely stick to PS2 to the bitter end... before being forced to jump.

Atlus just can't afford PS3 level games too much. One or two flops would kill them... and the Persona games aren't exactly best sellers.

The only reason they probably aren't doing Wii development is that the Persona characters can get pretty "graphic" and Nintendo might be edgy around them.

Persona 3 does pretty much all it's sales in Japan to my knowledge, PS3 just isn't an option right now.

Atlus is in the top 20 publishers now.. but they are still very small.
