At last Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 is shipping to stores tomorrow. The wait may have felt like forever, but only five months passed since Persona 4 launched in Japan. This is quite an accomplishment considering Persona 4 has around one and a half times more text than Persona 3 which Atlus USA had over a year to work on.
Despite the tight production schedule Siliconera was able to squeeze out an interview with the localization team to discuss topics like Teddie's puns, the tough trivia questions, and the possibility of seeing digital releases of the PSOne Persona games.
The Switch would definitely benefit from Persona games, but at the end of the day, it doesn't need them for fans to scratch the itch.
At the end of the day Atlus/Sega can put Persona on whatever platform they want. Their business and their choice.
I mean techincally there are Persona games on Switch. Just not the core series. That being said, sales would definitely benefit from the Japanese market Switch owners if they ever decided to put them on there.
The PlayStation Brahs:
"The first of the Persona 25th anniversary announcements will come in September, as early as the 1st of the month. Which will start a series of 7 announcements, all the way up to Autumn 2022. With the announcements coming as early as tomorrow, I thought it would be interesting to talk about what I think my be announced during all of it".
Surely a Persona 4 Golden is on the cards? I played about 5 hours worth years ago on the Vita. Would love to play it on a present-day console.
@curtain_swoosh. Yeah, I wouldn't mind the PC version but I have a crappy old Mac (better not say that too loud as I don't want it to hear me) so it can't run Parallels PC software. I'm sure a home version will come, someday.
I mean it's Atlus.
One would think that Persona 4 Golden would have gotten a console version together with the PC one. And if not for all consoles at least a Switch release.
So, yeah. I'm betting on nothing.
As excited as I am to see more Persona, I really want to know the status of Project Re Fantasy. It's been nearly five years since that game was announced and we know absolutely nothing about it outside of a teaser trailer.
As it's a persona specific event i doubt it will show up. But maybe. Probably a Sony event ingame reveal seems more likely.
Persona 6 and Persona 3 FES port to PC, I don't know what else to expect, I'd buy a port of P3 Fes to go with P4G.
Strong sales of Persona 4: Golden port will lead to more Sega catalogue titles on PC
It only makes sense. I expect to finally see the hd definitive version of p3 by the end of the year.
I'm pretty sure Sonic 2 allows 2 player on steam lol. Unless I misunderstood what you mean
Yes, definitely need to bring over Sonic Unleashed and Sonic Colours.
P5 I definitely ain't complaining about either. I still haven't played through royal for backlog reasons. If I can get a PC version instead. I'm not complaining
I'm even surprised by how well it did. But I was one who bought on day one. Despite it coming out of no where. Loved the game on Vita. Hopefully they'll bring a version of Persona 3 that's a mix between combat from P3P, female and male protag, as well as the complete 3d game like FES etc. Basically the version where you get the best of everything, no compromise
I like how they avoided the question about more PS2 games from Atlus.A rumor did come up that SMT was in development for the PS3 as well
