A portion of a Siliconera interview with Atlus USA…

S: Some people may feel that Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor was inspired by The World Ends With You.

Atlus: It does have some similarities like it’s set in modern day Japan, there’s a seven day time limit, but a lot of the similarities with The World Ends With You are things that have been part of the Shin Megami Tensei series since the beginning. So, if anything, I kinda feel like The World Ends With You is inspired by us.
