Whoa. Whoa. Shame it'll never be localized.

Sweet.
No need for the fan translation now!
It'll be localized. Atlus doesn't pass on anything related to Shin Megami Tensei these days.

i hope they release it in the us
Why? What SMT-related stuff haven't they brought over in the past decade or so?
Atlus has localized all of their recent SMT titles, including both Persona 2 remakes on PSP. I don't really see why this one would be an exception...

I don't know about that. Didn't Atlus want to release the PSP version, but couldn't because of Sony?
Don't SMT games always come over now? I'd be surprised if it didn't make it.

So it's not a remake but a port with voice acting and other features added?

Yeah, Atlus even translated Innocent Sin for the PSP last year. There's no reason why they shouldn't translate a game on a much healthier system.

That was the first Devil Summoner game, but yes, as I recall, that was what happened.
Those came out before SMT really had any presence in the States, so it's not surprising. I'd look to the fact that we got Strange Journey, and all of the Devil Survivor games, including the unnecessary 3DS remake... we're clearly going to get this.
The prequel to this which was ported to the psp?
lol. People said that about Catherine... where's my P5?
They couldn't have done that game if they wanted to. It was just a rom running in a Saturn emulator.
According to their forums there were some technical problems with localizing it.

Wasn't there a fan translation by Gemini doing this? Guess that's canceled now.
Yup and that was the first thing that came into my head.

And the remixed version of SMT Nocturne that replaced Dante with Raidou, which was a bonus when Devil Summoner 2 came out...
Though really, nobody would have wanted that.
P2:IS PSP must've sold damn good for Atlus to go "well, damn, unreleased SMT titles in America are wanted. BRING THEM OUT ON ALL THE NEW PLATFORMS! *alarms*"

So do any of these Megami Tensei games NOT have extremely micro-management heavy Pokémon subgames?
I LOVE everything else about them, I just can't enjoying PLAYING them because of that.

Persona 2 has lists to summon from. But you have to grind cards with the nego system to have enough cards to summon said demons from the list.
Posting from the future, are we? In the time period I live in, an announcement for Eternal Punishment PSP for NA hasn't been made yet. (Not saying it won't, just saying it hasn't.)
Also, could we finally get Soul Hackers here in English? That's sure be swell.

Hmm. Not sure.
I would sell many bloods to have a version of Nocturne where you can just use standard player characters.

Hail, peons, for I have come as ambassador from the great and bountiful Blueberry Butt Explosion
Oh man, Soul Hackers is one game I have no problem buying a second time. 
You realize Strange Journey and Devil Survivor 2 both came out after P4, right?

Erm... doubtful.
Gemini's quality towers over official localizations :x

Atlus re-releasing their older games is hardly something they've only started doing in the past few years, though. It's been something they've been doing with the franchise since the 90s.
This is totally fine with me until they run out of unlocalized titles. So I'll be happy for another decade or so.
I don't get it, this announcement means we are getting it in English. The record (and logic) speaks for itself.
