In North America, we know of the latest Shin Megami game as Shin Megami Tensei IV: Apocalypse. But in Japan, it was called Shin Megami Tensei IV: Final. Atlus has now made a silly little video to show how they arrived at the English title – see it below.
In other news, Atlus is readying a free 3DS theme. Nozomi, Gaston, and other members of the demon hunting squad are featured.

Next batch of Pokemon Sun & Moon info to come on September 14th; CoroCoro soon
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
If you thought the deluge of Pokemon Sun & Moon info was going to stop anytime soon after the several new trailers we got this week, you’re sorely mistaken. The official Japanese website revealed that the next wave of new information will be released on Wednesday, September 14th, at 10 PM JST / 3 PM CEST / 9 AM EDT / 6 AM PDT. This new info will likely come in the form of a new trailer.
That’s not all, though – the next issue of CoroCoro magazine is set to be released next week as well. The magazine has previously teased that it would reveal Rockruff’s evolution, among other things, in this issue. Historically, we should get leaked scans of the issue a couple of days ahead of its official release, possibly as early as this weekend. We will keep you updated.
