>>17657165Shin Megami Tensei is a long-running JRPG which is pretty big in Japan - the more popular offshoot Persona (mostly Persona 3 and Persona 4) you might've heard of. Anyway, SMT is the mainline series and SMTIII (otherwise known as Nocturne) is pretty much the most perfect JRPG ever made
nope, not arguing about this. Anyways, Atlus decided to put SMTIV on 1) a fucking handheld and 2) a fucking region locked handheld. Atlus has no offices in Europe, so every European was more or less shat on from a great height at once. Nintendo said they were publishing it here, but >Nintendo keeping promises. Hence the Euro-rage.
This is actually semi Pokemon related, as SMT was one of the first games to come up with a monster catching mechanic. Pokemon is at least partly inspired by it.
