I still think it would have been a major coup if Nintendo had purchased them as rumored. But there could be worse outcomes, and while Sega hasn't had a sterling record lately, hopefully they'll handle Atlus properly.

Would be a tragedy if Sony brought them.

Why is that?

Trauma Centre getting potentially killed off, the dev team being used to work on other stuff they dont want to.

That would be like replying with the Persona series as reasons for not wanting Nintendo. Those series wouldn't cease to exist.

The Trauma Centre games need motion/touch screen input to work though.

Trauma center may work on the Vita, but EO is about making maps and exploring, you need two screens for that.

With concern to the Trauma Centre handheld games, the DS/3DS would still be better suited since the games play best with a stylus (which is included with those systems).
