The most important question about this situation:

Can Atlus make a better Sonic game than Sonic Team?

 

[sabao]

While not impossible, I'm highly doubtful about them shuffling their teams around anytime soon. Also, has Sonic ever been made by any other studio than Team Sonic?

I would like to see a GOOD Sonic RPG for once. But nah, Atlus shouldn't do platformers. (did they ever do any?)

 

[Traveling Bard]

@Seacliff, yes actually. A recent one would be Catherine which was a puzzle-platformer. Old school-wise they did the two Widget games on Super Nintendo as well as Bonk's Adventure that's on WiiWare but I think was on TG-16. Overall though, I think they should stick to the niche' that they are good at...making rpgs and tactics style rpgs

There was also another platformer published by Atlus (made by Hori Electric) for the SNES. It was called Run Saber (saw it on a top10 from Mike Matei x'D). It actually seems really good, and it's supposed to be similar in gameplay to Strider, another platformer about ninjas! Kickass Ninjas FTW!

Asdf,

If I was SEGA, I'd let ATLUS bring over title that they(SEGA) feel will fail so this way we can still get our games here in the west.

as for my though on SEGA and Atlus... better than what Mirosoft may do to Atlus or Capcom or SE.

I just hope that Sega let Atlus do thing at their own pace or we may end up seeing Persona 5 being buggy as heck, or any Atlus game.
