I have to wonder if there's any remote chance now that XSEED could move into more established Namco stuff? Tales of Hearts and Radiant Mythology 2 would be nice... Excellent pickup!

As in if they are able to do it (not bugging them, I don't wanna feel spoiled here) This seems more interesting than their relationship with Marvelous.
