Though the game will never appease a young crowd, all us Pokemon buffs who have a dark side will get our kicks.
Daav from NoobFeed writes - Nintendo has announced that both the 3DS and Wii U eShops are on the way out. Though the company preempts the news by saying that downloads will still work "for the foreseeable future," that message also implies that your games will disappear at some point. We've enabled consumption at our fingertips, which companies have gladly used to erode the terms of game ownership. As always, convenience comes at a much higher cost down the road and, well, that time has come
The Megami Tensei franchise has been going on for quite a while and has had a lot of great works. Here are some of the best Shin Megami Tensei games.
The mainline Shin Megami Tensei still has a ways to go before it becomes more accepted in the international market like its spinoff Persona series.
Fun Fact: This entire franchise is based off of a science fiction book. It's one of the most successful licensed properties in gaming
Yeah, finding out about MT's origins was interesting.
And agreed that SMT is lagging behind in terms of western popularity. It's a lot harder a sell than Persona, that's for sure.
Indeed. Who knew the Japanese only books would go on to spawn such a legacy?

Persona is just a more accessible franchise to get into than the mainline SMT in terms of difficulty, premise, and tonality.
Persona was meant to have a more wider appeal and was designed to feel more familiar and relateable to the audience as opposed to the more fantastical and philosophical aspects of the mainline series.
Several Atlus-published 3DS JRPGs have been discounted with Etrian Mystery Dungeon dropping to $25.73, Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth to $22.60, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor Overclocked to $22.98, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2 Record Breaker to $27.49 and more.
They mean Pokemon is like Megami Tensei games for kids right? Seeings how those games were doing the whole raise your own creature thing before the concept for Pokemon even existed.
