Nintendo rumored to consider buying Atlus in bankruptcy proceedings | Wii U

Index Corporation has been having financial trouble recently and this could mean big changes for one of their subsidiaries, Atlus. Atlus is known for developing high profile Japanese RPG's and rumor has it that if the company is auctioned off, Nintendo is one of the companies at the forefront of purchasing the developer. Nothing is certain, so I guess all we can do is wait and see what happens.

I had no idea Atlus was in financial trouble, I guess the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona series are kind of niche but I never imagined they'd go bankrupt.
It's a good move by Nintendo if they buy them, like it would be by Sony or Microsoft, exclusivity to their titles would be a huge advantage!
