Winner: Atlus USA
For the first time since we started handing out awards back in 2003, the same publisher has taken the Stateside Publisher of the Year Award in back-to-back years, as Atlus USA just kept representing, all year long.

A couple of others put up decent cases for this award, but with marquee titles like Odin Sphere, Persona 3, and Etrian Odyssey standing on its front lines, Atlus USA simply would not be denied. In accepting this award last year, Atlus USA reps told us to watch out for the '07 lineup, and this year, they get to say "I told you so."

Last Year's winner: Atlus USA
