Sega has announced new development studio names for its respective teams established after the recent consolidation of Sega Studios.
Effective October 1, 2003, Sonic Team and UGA will go by the name of Sonic Team. Wow and Overworks will go by the name of Wow-works (tentative). AM2 will retain its existing name. Suzuki's new studio will now be recognized as Cinematic Online Games (tentative). Amusement Vision and Smilbit will officially be renamed to Amusement Vision, and the other studio that consist of members from Amusement Vision and Smilebit will go by the name of Smilebit.
see, the new AV is in charge of making games that utilize cut scenes, and the new Smilebit is in charge of sports game. simple as that. shouldn't of been that hard to understand. i did say other studio after all.
they actually make succesful sports games that don't get brought over to the US.
More than that, thier 'Let's make a...' series is one of Sega's most popular franchises in Japan, and unlike Visual Concept's sports efforts, have always yielded a profit. Heck, they might be the only Smilebit games to make more than they cost.

You're not getting one. Smilebit already said no in an interview they did for Play magazine.
