Atlus USA Wants to Know if You Want Persona or Catherine on Switch, Xbox One, or PC and Much More

Atlus is asking its fans a lot of questions, including whether they'd like Persona games, Catherine, and more on other platforms.

[Spurg]

Yes please...hahahaha

[lxeasy]

Just took the survey. A bit longer than I thought. But some Persona ports are always welcomed

[lelo2play]

Yep... saw the first page (represents 5% of the survey) ... and gave up.

[AnthonyDavis]

I said I want PC Ports but no Switch or Xbox ports. More gamers get to play being better is a myth. That means more casual gamers get to play and it ruins how developers make their games to target the casual audience. And more time wasted spent porting.

[XabiDaChosenOne]

@JimmyCagney your interpretation of that comment is the definition of brain dead and stupid.

[NapalmSanctuary]

@AnthonyDavis Giving casuals a chance to appreciate games with more depth is never a bad thing. It could make the industry, as a whole, much better. How else are they supposed to come to the understanding that over prioritizing things like accessibility tends to ruin games. I also don't understand the idea that Switch and Xbone gamers are, by definition, casual.

[AnthonyDavis]

^Jimmy

Has already happened. Why you think mobile, iPad, gyro motion games have taken off. There’s more demand for simple and shallow games.

Less demand for well thought out and paced core games now.

[AnthonyDavis]

Napalm^

It’s not the consoles themselves. The principle of multiplatform is a concept for letting more gamers access it which is not a good thing.

Also let me ask you guys this question? Which industry has benefiffited from the casual audience? And by benefit I mean which industry got better critically apart from money.

Casuals help you earn money but they make industries shallow. Music, Movies, games, books, sports. I can make a case for all those where the casual audience ruined the industry.

[Weeblordbad]

@AnthonyDavis

Who decides, who or what a casual is? All of your examples reek of simple gatekeeping and have no real basis in reality. So let's look at your comment history here, and ohhhh you've got an axe to grind. So surprising!

[AnthonyDavis]

^
Lol you moving goal posts. You know what I mean by who is a casual gamer. If you don’t know, then your a casual gamer as well.

There is proof. Sports they encourage more scoring and making the players more safe to appease the casuals.

Movies, it’s more about superhero movies than drama movies now.

Music, the only good genre right now is is hip hop and pop.

Books, do people even read anymore
?

Games, the shift to mobile games and less big budget AAA complex games.

[Gemmol]

I click yes

[VenomUK]

Persona 4 Golden Remastered.

[LG_Fox_Brazil]

Atlus please, a collection with Persona 1 to 4 on a single disc would be awesome. Please, make it happen

[mezati99]

limiting your fanbase to one console is so SO dumb....

i hope all atlus games comes to ALL platforms

[jukins]

Lol well when most of the fan base arent interested in it why waste the resources

[mezati99]

PC and Switch ARE thirsty for some of dem JRPGs bruh

[jaymacx]

The only fan base that isn't really interested in JRPG is Xbox (Even though I bought mostly all of Xbox's JRPG games like Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey). Plenty of Nintendo and PC fans love them.

[HighPlayer28]

Couldn't agree more with this post it's a no brainer really shouldn't even be asked. If you want to grow your niche games into a popular franchises then limiting your games to one platform is beyond stupid looking at you Sega.

[hulk_bash1987]

The more people that can get their hands on games like Persona 5 is a good thing. I played it on day 1 on PS4 and it is easily one of my favorite JRPGs of all time.

[The Wood]

Truly great experience. Wish it won game of the year. . . .twice lol

[rpvenom]

One of the few games of this generation that made me constantly anticipate and rush home from work to play with every minute of my spare time! A true gem for this generation!

[HighPlayer28]

What is this game about? Is it like Tokyo Ghoul

[HighPlayer28]

I always thought this game looked interesting and wanted to play it but it never came to Xbox. I hope it does so I can find out what this anime is about.

[rpvenom]

I've never played tokyo ghoul so I can't compare.. what I will say is that it's a classic and modern return to jrpg.. turn based gameplay is not popular anymore but they made it worked and the story is amazing.. you really feel immersed and connected with the characters because all of them were very well made.. the story starts a bit slow but once you're in.. you'll never want to leave.. I hope you guys get to play it man.. it really is a game I will never forget..

[DerekTweed]

I tried it after I got a PS4 pro, one of the best games I've played this gen. It is very long, around 100 hours to finish. It's based in Tokyo, you go to school, do certain activities to increase skills. "hang out" with friends to increase your bond.

You collect, basically, monsters that you can use during the turn based combat. They have different elemental abilities that are weak/strong against different monsters. You can fuse the monsters to make other monsters and find "recipes" for creating more powerful ones.

There is a lot of text based dialogue so you'll have to read a lot or skip it and not understand what's happening.

This is still skipping some of the other mechanics but this is the biggest stuff. Of course there is a story and dialogue choices that affect the ending.

All in all, it's a fantastic game. 10/10 for me

[Casepb]

Ummm duh! Why do they even have to ask this?

[starchild]

I'd like to see them on PC. And, actually, they are third party so as many gamers getting to play them on as many platforms as possible would be best.

[SilverDemon]

Remake p3
Port p4g

Rerelease smg digital Devi saga digitally for ps4

[Kribwalker]

I’m not a big fan of turn based RPGs but it would be great for people that are so Id say yes

[DerekTweed]

I'm not a huge fan of turn based combat either but this game was very enjoyable and satisfying for some reason.

[CaptainCook]

If that happens I'll purchase every Atlus games on Xbox One.

[DerekTweed]

Me too. Same for Ryu Ga Gotoko studios (Yakuza)

[CP_Company]

people say yes and forgot about it, and most of them not even want to buy these games. that is reality, sold numbers don't lie.

[Rapidfirepunches]

Yes and with the bonus that they won't be censored.

[Tross]

Persona 5 isn’t censored.

[Rapidfirepunches]

I mean they won't have to worry about it for any of their games.

[Abnor_Mal]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but weren't people saying Persona was a pedophile game or some such not too long ago and making jokes. Now it seems like they're getting happy all of a sudden. Funny how minds change when opportunity arises.

[Kribwalker]

“You do not dictate the rules how anything works anywhere but in your home to your family, and the next time you reply to me show some respect or take your own advice and how did you so eloquently say, STFU. ”

He’s not dictating those rules. They are the rules. You make a claim, get called out on it, then you have to back it up, or else you’re just talking out your ass.

The simple solution is don’t say stupid things and you won’t have to back it up.

[Abnor_Mal]

Okay, I apologize for my ineptitude to provide links. I stated it a few times with the back and forth, but will endeavor to learn how to do so. I was trying but do not understand how to on a forum and only know how when sending a message to someone within my phone book. I am not really learned when it comes to computers, so again I apologize to you and the other gentleman and any others I have offended.

[Weeblordbad]

So you find one article, and some comments and suddenly that means everyone here had that mentality? How does that even work!? Seriously, because I'm sick and tired of this, some people saying something doesn't mean that other people feel the same way. Only on this god forsaken stupid site, could someone twist something that bloody far.

Second, the notion that you don't know how to copy a link really makes me wonder if you have any business here at all. First you highlight the link, then you right click or hold your finger down on mobile, select cut or copy and then right click on the comment field and select paste. It won't be a clickable link, but we can copy and paste the address into the address bar and go.

N4G is not the internet, the internet as a whole is not N4G. What you really could have done, is rolled your eyes at anyone trying to smear Persona 5 over something so ludicrously untrue whether it's an article or comments. Your original post simply reads as vindictive.

Just be happy that hopefully some percentage of people will get to play great games, and that means more money for Atlus in financing and publishing future Persona games.

[Abnor_Mal]

Well thank you for telling me how to copy a link, secondly I never said every one but instead said people. I don't know where it came from that I was talking about everyone that is into gaming or all fans of another console, I generalized by saying people. Anyways thanks again for teaching an old dog a new trick.

[DarXyde]

The problem with these types of surveys is no one is going to say "no" to more games on their platforms. Whether they invest or not is another story altogether.

It is welcome, but how many will actively support this venture?

[Movefasta1993]

release it on all of them, the most tales outside of ps4 will come on switch and steam followed by xbox for obvious reasons but switch is a no brainer

[Automatic79]

As more and more eastern and western companies go global, the way of the console timed exclusives will be gone.

[jelloaceomega]

Sure, i'll buy it again as many times you want. As long if you remake Both Persona 2: Innocent Sin and Eternal Punishment. Also Include Hitler, and all that jazz licks! :D

[franwex]

Do you want more MONEY Sega? If yes, then expand your audience.
Side note, a Persona 4 port for current gen would be awesome. You can simply port the Vita version!

[EddieNX]

Switch is probably the best place for any JRPG going forward so yes , bring it to Switch.

[DarXyde]

Unless it's very online-oriented.

In which case, it becomes the worst place for any JRPG.

Beyond that, I do enjoy my trophy support.

[King_Noctis]

Has their been any big online only JRPG? At least in this gen.

[PhantomS42]

Catherine and Persona 3,4,5 on Switch!!!

[feenix-5]

Keep Persona where it belongs, on Playstation. Catherine on the other hand would be great on Switch. Don't even waste time & resources on xbox, that group dosent know what to do with these kind of games.

[HighPlayer28]

Your the type of ps4 player I don't like with your garbage rhetoric about the Xbox community. Are you going to be mad if Xbox players get to enjoy these games smh.Grow up and stop the fanboy stupidity.

[ghostrider32]

I see why most publishers and developers don't listen to their fans. Console gamers are so unintelligent it's funny. Especially bastards like this.

[DerekTweed]

The vast majority of Playstation players don't buy this game either, it's just that the gamers that do enjoy it are on playstation because that's where all the games are.

If you like this kind of game and 90% of them are only available on Playstation, that's what you'll buy. So if it is suddenly available on everything, the likelihood that that those people will buy it on Playstation still is very high.

It's kind of like the chicken and the egg.

[TheColbertinator]

Steam Steam Steam!

[Soap_Z]

They did the survey every year with same content

[Protagonist]

Exactly, I think I´ve already done this 3 or 4 times through the years, even the japanese ones (translated).

[Yui_Suzumiya]

Catherine is on 360 though 😲

[TheUndertaker85]

Catherine: Full Body is not on Xbox One. The Xbox 360 version of Catherine is backwards compatible on Xbox One though.

[SegaGamer]

I'll take all of Atlus game's on PC. This is how it should be anyway. Exclusives shouldn't be a thing for 3rd party games.

[starchild]

Completely agree.

[Weeblordbad]

We...agree? What a day to be alive.

[Razzer]

Give me all your Persona on PC, please.

[timotim]

Support Xbox Play Anywhere on PC and console and Ill support your games. Please and thank you.

[Traecy]

The PS4 had the game since 2016/2017 why not share it at this time.I would like a remastered P4 on the PS4. Hopefully the PS5 will have Persona 6.

[doritos]

Persona on pc please!

[Greedsin]

Well I mean ya, put the damn thing on everything so everyone can enjoy it.

I'm sure there are allot of people on Switch and Xbox who would absolutely love to play this game from beginning to end.

[HighPlayer28]

Atlus would be smart to grow the audience of persona and catherine by releasing on Xbox and Switch. Don't be like Sega Atlus be like Capcom right now.

[Tigerblud]

I forget to put port Tokyo Mirrage Sessions to Switch! It won't let me do it again

[Protagonist]

Was the game even an option? Or was it a "what would like too see" question.

[BlaqMagiq1]

I picked Shin Megami Tensei to return to PS4.

[Protagonist]

If you spread the word enough times, it might become true ;)

[AK91]

Sure the more people that can play their games the better.

[AsunaYuukiTheFlash]

How about Shin Megami Tensei 5 on PS4?

[Protagonist]

Spread the word ;)

[Spikeantestor]

Do they really need a pole for this? Ehhh, maybe it's more about PC/Xbox than Switch.

[capjacksparrow]

I'd rather them focus on Persona 6 for my Playstation. The being said, if they're outsourcing the port to another developer, go for it. The games are amazing and should be enjoyed by many.

[bangoskank]

Catherine would be f'ing perfect on the Switch. This needs to happen.

[SlagWolf]

I did the survey. I want Dragons Crown and Persona on PC

[xX1NORM1Xx]

Yes yes yes yes yes I want it on every platform that can possibly play it everyone should at least try it, I recently completed it after 105 hours it’s brilliant and that’s coming from someone that hates jrpgs and turn based combat but the style, music and story make it 30000000% worth playing.

[DerekTweed]

107 hours for me. I'm the same, never really liked turn based combat but loved Persona 5

[nucky64]

i want demon souls remake on ps4, you atlus morons - i don't want either of these games.

[linkuu128]

I think the survey is just to save face, since the persona 5 port is already underway to switch. The port will be annouced next month, but they will claim is because the survey.

So this way, ps fans will not feel betrayed, since the "choice" was "made" from us, the fans.

Anyway, lets see next month.

[leoms]

GROWLANSER!!!!!!!!!

[HexxedAvenger]

the answer is yes. just yes

[DreadGara]

SMT V on PS4 please 😎

[SegaSaturn669]

No thanks, make new stuff.

[pixel_love1]

Persona 5 for switch please, but not for 60€

[KyoSiegfried86]

Is there any reason why someone should say "No"?

[InTheZoneAC]

More persona on PS please, talking about the real rpgs not those spinoffs of other genres with the name

[-Gespenst-]

I've played all the Persona games except 5 because I don't own a PS4. Really want a PC port.

[vork77]

yes on all platforms
