Shin Megami Tensei IV Final is coming to 3DS, Atlus has revealed. The game will be released in Japan on February 10 for 6,480 yen.

Teasers from Atlus today suggested that this would be a new version of Shin Megami Tensei IV, but that’s not the case. Famitsu, which has full coverage of the game this week, says it’s an entirely new project set in the same world. “Godslayer” is said to be a keyword.

Atlus is planning a Niconico stream for October 11, which will be held at 7 PM Japan time. Since it’s covered in this week’s Famitsu though, we should be getting information within a day or two. You can find the teaser site here.

For the first time since the list’s inception in 2001, Nintendo is not part of the world’s top 100 brands. Interbrand, the company compiling the list, looks at the financial performances of companies and how their brands contributed to that and how they are expected to contribute in the future.

Interbrand Japan CEO Yuki Wada said that the reason Nintendo didn’t make the list was because of the company’s failure to keep up with the changes in people’s lives, as evidenced by the fact that they only decided to start releasing smartphone games this year.
