Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse will be at Atlus’ E3 2016 booth
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Atlus has revealed its E3 2016 lineup through the expo’s official website. For Nintendo fans, the big one is Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, which will be at the company’s booth and will probably be making its first playable appearance in English.
The listing states:
ATLUS U.S.A., Inc. is known for high-quality, deeply immersive, uniquely Japanese and indie video game experiences. Our award-winning catalog continues to grow across a variety of genres and platforms. Visit our booth featuring highly anticipated titles from ATLUS and SEGA, including Persona 5, Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse, and Yakuza 0.
7th Dragon III Code: VFD isn’t mentioned here, but since it’ll be out after E3, I wouldn’t be surprised if that one shows up as well.

Our apologies! No comic this week
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Comics | 5 Comments
Hey everyone! Don doesn’t have a new comic for the site today due to some personal things happening this week. Everyone deserves some time off anyway, right?! Well, except me anyway… haha.
Don didn’t want us to go completely empty-handed, so we do have a little something attached above. We’ll absolutely be back next week with the next part of Ted’s adventure!
