Even Sonic Is Worried About The Fate of His Creators!
Yikes there's been breaking news this morning and it's not looking good for SEGA or any of their sister companies and partners as SEGA SAMMY has announced that they will be scaling back or shutting down the many of their entertainment division teams with the exception of Team Sonic following an extremely grim financial report.
Rumor has it that 1,500 to 1,750 jobs will also be lost with 120+ workers being offered voluntary retirement with full retirement benefits. It also appears that SEGA SAMMY's "Amusement division" will also be greatly affected by this major restructuring of the corporation.
Also remember that ATLUS was recently bought by SEGA SAMMY so they might be gravely affected by this situation, anyways what are your thoughts regarding this? We'd really like to see what everyone thinks about this news in our comments below.

Sell Atlus to Nintendo and all is well in the world. Seriously though all I care about is Atlus as Sega has been pumping out garbage for a while now. Maybe they should sell out to Nintendo as Nintendo could work wonders with their franchises.

I hope Nintendo buys them or something... It's weird because I remember saying this on Miiverse once and someone commented saying Nintendo was more likley to be in this situation then Sega since its aquizition by Sammy :/

This just sucks.
I hope that ATLUS will survive somehow.

I wasn't expecting SEGA to scale back so prolifically.

I hope Nintendo can either save Sega or Atlus, but preferably both
