Atlus gets big boost from North America

Posting their quarterly financials earlier, Atlus can now pull a Scrooge McDuck and swim in their very own money bin. Sort of. The publisher reported sizable gains over the last few months, mostly thanks to their North American end.

Atlus scored a cool ¥ 378 million (about US$ 4.15 million) in operating profit, which is 236.1% better than the same period last year. Of that amount, Atlus USA was responsible for bringing in ¥ 346 million (around US$ 3.81), a 578.5% increase from their numbers last year.

According to the same report, the publisher credits their success to strong overseas sales of Shin Megami Tensei: Persona, 101-in-1  Party Mix, and of course, Demon’s Souls.
