Of course this is only a good plan of action if they were developing follow ups to them, since we’re not a freaking greatest hits (2001-2006 RIP) console.

But my point is… why investing in a new production pipeline, way more expensive for the HD’s and where the graphics have to be a focal point (I like graphics everywhere, but I’m fine with how SMT looks on Ps2, for me it could keep that level of graphics for 10 years, it has some charm to it and depends on artistic direction mostly, to compensate the fact that they have no budget to go against the top tiers) I mean they seem to be content with Ps2 power and could keep their production pipeline as is, regarding costs and development times on the Wii… only with a bigger overhead as Wii is quite the upgrade from a PS2.

I mean, the Wii leads worldwide, it’s not like they’re getting forced on the HD’s, who btw, don’t even sell all that hot in japan; and like you said there’s DQX; Atlus just lost a oportunity to raise hype for a SMT/Persona game before some megaton of that nature, and they’ll be even more stupid if they don’t go all out on the Wii; it’s by far the best platform for them.

Like I said, after P3FES, I have really high hopes for a Wii SMT.

(in other news, Dragon Quest X is exclusive to Wii)

Still, as I said I can’t blame them, it must have been a 2006 decision back when everyone expected PS3 to be a PS2-part 2; now I can blame Atlus for doing it in 2009; and for the missed oportunities they already had to expand to the Wii.

And for Megaten future… nothing is semiconfirmed, they said they’d like to do some crappy first person spinoff for the Wii in 2006 and said at one time that SMT4 would be a PS3 game (but they also said there was a Persona PSP back in 2004 that never came to be), but they were hiring PS3/X360 programmers a while back, which just strikes me as stupid; they should really focus on the Wii. I can already smell it, we, as a leading platform ideal for them to put their best effort and actually grow since numbered FF’s aren’t competion at least for now… getting a crap spin-off and them going all out wasting money on graphical prowess on the HD’s. sigh, atlus pulling a Namco Bandai, except it’s Namco Bandai that usually has a craptacular view of the market, Atlus should be different and I’d expect them to be different as in… not stupid.
