No reason to pass on Odin Sphere and Disgaea anymore.

Odin Sphere and Disgaea, two of Atlus‘ best publishing efforts are getting the Greatest Hits treatment. This means they will be available at the extremely low price of $19.99. This is no doubt a great success for Atlus and shows just how much they have grown this past generation.

While Atlus didn’t actually make these two games (Credit goes to VanillaWare and Nippon Ichi Software, respectively) This achievement speaks wonderfully about their plans to expand in America. Their in-house games like the Trauma Center and Shin Megami Tensei (Persona) series no doubt benefit from their competent publishing and localization house in ATLUS USA.

Think I’m sucking up too much? Screw you, these guys rock and they deserve every bit of praise. In the meantime, look forward to Persona 4 (PS2) and Dokapon Kingdom (PS2/Wii)

    Odin Sphere was hands down one of the most beautiful anime-style games I’ve played, especially scaled to 1080p.

    Wow, this sounds great! I’ve been waiting for Odin Sphere to cost less for a long time. However, I’m wondering where you got this news? I haven’t heard anything about this and there’s no similar announcement on Atlus’s website.

    @Kibou

    I got this from an E-mail Atlus sent me. They send updates if you sign up for the “Atlus Faithfuls”. It’s also posted everywhere on gaming websites.
