The book series follows protagonists Akemi Nakajima, a schoolboy who invents a Demon Summoning Program, and Yumiko Shirasagi, a schoolgirl who is the reincarnation of the Japanese goddess Izanami (Megami Tensei roughly translates to “Goddess Reincarnation” referring to Yumiko). This game was a sequel to the popular Japanese book series of the same name by writer Aya Nishitani in the late 1980s. The first game in the Megami Tensei series (which would later become the Shin Megami Tensei series) was Digital Devil Story: Megami Tensei which was released by developer Atlus and publisher Namco for the Nintendo Famicom in 1987. For those who have only recently heard of the series, here’s a little history on the series and its mechanics, along with why I think Pokémon fans would love it. Not only is this Japanese role-playing game (JRPG) series just as good as Pokémon, it led the way for Pokémon’s existence by being the first RPG series to allow players to recruit monsters and use them to fight in turn-based battles. While the majority of Pokémon fans are awaiting the exciting releases of Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl in early November, there is another monster-catching RPG game coming out around the same time that fans should keep an eye on, Shin Megami Tensei V (SMT V). ![]()
