Before you start posting about Game X, please read this.

1) Atlus, USA doesn't make games. We localize them. Don't ask for a new version of something, because by and large we don't get to make design decisions.

2) Ogre Battle / Tactics Ogre: Quest was the developer of the Ogre games. Quest went on to be absorbed into what is now SquareEnix.

3) Virtual Console/PSN Classics: It's mostly not up to us to decide what gets put on these. Also, localizing old Atlus games for virtual release wouldn't make us any money, so there's almost no chance of it happening.

4) Take a moment to search the forum for the game you're about to suggest to see if anyone else has already suggested it. There's no need for multiple threads about the same game.

5) The Suggestion Box is a great resource to tip us off to games we might not know about that could be good localization candidates. But you can probably just assume by now that we know games in our flagship Shin Megami Tensei series from our parent company exist, and do not need to be brought to our attention. If you'd like to discuss news and details of these games as they're revealed, we recommend starting a thread in the SMT sub-forum (http://www.atlus.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=5) instead.

Happy suggesting!

As an addendum to Onion's notes: the Suggestion forum is a place to suggest games, not lobby for them. We read all suggestions and take them into account, but posting "call to arms" and trying to overwhelm us with sheer numbers (in the hundreds...) will generally never work.

We're not trying to overwhelm you guys, We are just hoping to play some of the classic games that helped Atlus become what it is right now
I have lost what little patience i had for Nintendo of America
They basically ruined the best of the games released for their systems like not allowing blood/gore in the snes Mortal Kombats, horribly ruining games like Castlevania4 and Chrono Trigger by having Square/Konami remove any religous references and not to mention Shin Megami Tensei (original snes one) because of little things like a boy on a cross and such

I believe the point was that Atlus U.S.A. doesn't handle the things mentioned in the first post, and as such it's pointless to ask for them. Asking them to make a new Ogre Battle game is the same as putting in a suggestion here for a new flavour of Ice Cream. It's simply out of their hands.
