Etrian Odyssey V could be the last numbered entry in the series on 3DS

During yesterday’s Etrian Odyssey V stream, Atlus suggested that the title could be the last numbered series on 3DS. This reminded the staff about how Etrian Odyssey III was the last main entry on DS. Atlus is now concentrating and focusing its time on the game so they have no regrets.
Aside from Etrian Odyssey IV and IV on 3DS, there have been a couple of remakes of sorts for the platform: Etrian Odyssey Untold: The Millennium Girl and Etrian Odyssey 2 Untold: The Fafnir Knight. The spin-off Etrian Mystery Dungeon is also on Nintendo’s portable.

Rumor: Japan’s Wii U shortages due to Nintendo restricting supply to avoid unsold inventory
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 116 Comments
Over the past few weeks, it’s become apparent that finding a Wii U in Japan isn’t quite as easy as it was a year ago. Why is this so? Respected Japanese outlet Nikkei published some speculation today that Nintendo is “restricting supplies to avoid unsold inventory.”
Here’s an excerpt from a new article on the website:
“In Japan, since late January, signs saying ‘Wii U is out of stock’ have begun appearing at game shops across the country. That has sparked rumors the company might be about to cut prices, though Nintendo denies this. According to the rumors the company has also been restricting supplies to avoid unsold inventory.”
Of course, this is only a rumor at the moment. Whether or not Nikkei is correct is currently unknown.
