Debating about plunging into the next Console Generation...

[NeoCracker]

Wii U get's Xenoblade Chronicles X. PS4 is getting Persona 4, and presumably more Atlus titles.

Face it Kanno, this is what is going to decide your purchase. Atlus Vs. Monolith.

Problem: The PS3 is also getting Persona 5.

I was aluding to the likelihood of more SMT exclusive stuff for sony. I doubt there MO for the entire generation is going to be releasing the games on both PS3 and 4.

Similarly I doubt Chronlicles is going to be the only Wii U title released from Monolith.

For Sony, that may be right. For ATLUS? I'm not so sure. There's a reason why they own the Vita's library, and it's because they are pretty much the only devs to not push the system to its limits with their games for it (aside from indies, of course). ATLUS is most comfortable making games that are not pushing the envelope of system capability. And as long as the games work on the PS3, they'll be released on the PS3.

Although if they announce Shining Force IV, I will have to buy whatever system it comes out for.

The fact it matters to Sony means it's going to matter to Atlus. Right now not so much, but no way Sony isn't going to encourage Atlus to starting doing it on just PS4 later. And since the question was about longterm? Unless Atlus starts releasing their main titles multiconsole later on, they still stand as a good force for PS4.

For me I'd also throw in NISA, but I was answering for Wolf, and I get the strangest feeling a lot of NISA's releases don't tickle his fancy. :P (Atelier anyone? Though that's just published, as it's actually GUST! behind it, but until Gust get's their own localization teams, they seem to be done by NISA.)
