But in America, the licensing of various titles featured in the games falls under different distributors like ADV, Funimation, 4Kids, etc. It will be hell to get green lights from all of them for the game and there's no gurantee that the game will reap profit after all the complication. Furthermore, Atlus did try with the GBA OGs. It flopped, ensuring the death of this series in America.
I don't want to speak bad of Atlus but IMO it flopped because they decided to import them late and when the GBA was more or less dead.

Speaking about this game if there is space for other series they should add Right of Left.
