Please be happening and please be anything other than 3DS. PS3, PSV, PS4, 360, Bone, Wii U, PC I can handle but 3DS=heartbreak heartbreak.

 

[AzureSkies]

Maybe it's 3 different announcements hence 3 windows? I mean Persona 4 arena sequel, something P3 releted and Persona 5? The countdown is to long for one thing.

That's actually plausible.

 

[TriGen]

I don't believe. But I do hope.

 

[Simzyy]

Please don't be Persona 5 Main Character.

Wouldn't that mean the game was set in Inaba again based on the uniform?

The new guy might have a role to play in P5, but unlikely to be a protagonist imo

 

[Laughing Banana]

To those joking around about Persona 5 / main entry in mobile.

NOT FUNNY AT ALL

 

[EMT0]

Reading my mind, that's what I'm inclined to believe.

Mobile it is then!

 

[Aytrial]

Guys, it'll be a browser-based card game.

 

[jersoc]

i hope it's persona 5 like everyone else. plus no handhelds. my hands can not take a 90+ hour rpg.

 

[xJavonta]

This would make me happy. 3DS and Persona is a perfect fit I think

No, Vita is. The 3DS isn't as powerful and I'd hate to see a watered down SEQUEL after coming from P4G.

(I own a 3DS and love it, but keep Persona way the fuck away from it)

I was gonna make a joke about Persona 5 being a mobile game, but looks like i'm LTTP.

 

[kurahador]

Atlus isn't S-E right guys??

It'll be Persona 5 right???

 

[Meia]

No, Vita is. The 3DS isn't as powerful and I'd hate to see a watered down SEQUEL after coming from P4G.

This.


No matter where it ends up, we should want it to be the best game it can be. Seen nothing to indicate this would mean *any* handheld.

 

[Coxy]

I think if it was gonna be Persona 5 there'd be a magazine ad for the teaser, that's how they usually do it

 

[TheChaos0]

Except Flay is awesome.

I was going to add that part but I thought it was a common knowledge.

 

[sykoex]

Yoshida retweeted it so I guess Sony's hardware will be among the targeted platforms.

 

[dark_prinny]

C'mon ATLUS do your

 

[CaptainMoose]

Making Persona 5 for handhelds makes no sense when they double sales with a console release and then a Portable edition.

That said, it could be for iOS for what I care, I just want the game.

Or ya know they could double sales by making two versions ala Devil Survivor/Overclocked, DS2/ Break Record or Etrian Oddyssey/Untold. It makes perfect sense to release it handheld considering 3DS is the best selling system in Japan by FAR.

 

[Riki]

A countdown for the end of November? I hate these so much.

 

[xJavonta]

What's with this trend of announcing announcements lately? I don't like it

 

[BlackJace]

That's an awfully long time away.

 

[bonercop]

i think this might be persona4 related

look at the page source

http://p-atlus.jp/p4u/

notice that there's also a link to regular-ass P4. I'm thinking those are just those little ad-like boxes that are at the bottom of every atlus website that point to other games.

 

[FluxWaveZ]

Welcome to the beginning of this console generation?

The team just announced something, like, a couple of hours ago, so it's not too bad and it gives us something to look forward to.

 

[keit4]

Yoshida retweeted it so I guess Sony's hardware will be among the targeted platforms.

Breaking news.

It will be a PS3 (and maybe 360) game or a Vita game.

 

[Superman]

Oh god...
I'm so ready. Persona 5, Give it to me.

Please, people, let's not go there. Please. It's bearly bad.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Well at least we have something to look foreward to.

Tho I'll be salty if it turns out to be some crap. It is time!

 

[panty]

PS3/4 or no buy.

That's the code for the share buttons, which are the same as the ones on the P4A2 site.

Interesting message it gives should you click the Twitter button however:

"2013&#24180;11&#26376;24&#26085;20:00&#12289;&#20309;&#12363;&#12364;&#12289;&#22987;&#12414;&#12427;&#8230; http://p-ch.jp/ #&#12506;&#12523;&#12477;&#12490;"

"Something is beginning...."

 

[CaptainMoose]

No, Vita is. The 3DS isn't as powerful and I'd hate to see a watered down SEQUEL after coming from P4G.

(I own a 3DS and love it, but keep Persona way the fuck away from it)

Because Persona is such a graphically intense series right? Oh wait...

Just because the graphics aren't as good doesnt mean the game can't be better.

 

[x3r0123]

but that doesnt stop it from being persona4 related

 

[LiquidMetal14]

2 month countdowns are too long. Oh well, it's something.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

but that doesnt stop it from being persona4 related

Persona 4-II confirmed.

 

[CaptainMoose]

Please, people, let's not go there. Please. It's bearly bad.

Why would releasing it on handhelds twice be bad but console>handheld is ok?

 

[raven777]

Yoshida retweeted it so I guess Sony's hardware will be among the targeted platforms.

Seriously...don't do this Yoshida...

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Why would releasing it on handhelds twice be bad but console>handheld is ok?

So you want 3DS-Vita multiplat?

That would certainly be interesting. Enhanced console port later :lol

 

[Superman]

http://p-atlus.jp/p4u/

Persona 4: Ultimate? (Not sure how they could improve on P4G though)

Even a sequel to Persona 4 would be amazing.

 

[zerokoolpsx]

P4U or P5. Betting on the former.

 

[dark_prinny]

P4 WiiU OffScreen Touch my Rise confirmed.

 

[bonercop]

guys, P4U is p4 arena.

 

[Sophia]

Persona 4: Ultimate? (Not sure how they could improve on P4G though)

Even a sequel to Persona 4 would be amazing.

P4U = The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena = Persona 4 Arena = Not the sequel.

I don't think it's relevant.

 

[Superman]

P4U = The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena = Persona 4 Arena = Not the sequel.

I don't think it's relevant.

Ahh, OK thanks.

 

[AzureSkies]

It's very possible that it's just re-used code to save a little bit of effort. I really doubt they'd make a countdown to P4U2 when it was already announced a while ago.

 

[Aliand]

Because Persona is such a graphically intense series right? Oh wait...

Just because the graphics aren't as good doesnt mean the game can't be better.

Have you played P4G?

 

[CaptainMoose]

So you want 3DS-Vita multiplat?

That would certainly be interesting. Enhanced console port later :lol

Sure that would work. Give each one different stuff like the Vita gets better graphics, and the 3DS gets ability to draw maps.
This way too it will be one less thing for the 3DS&Vita fanboys to argue about.
Enhanced console port could happen but Atlus just doesn't seem to care about consoles at all. Correct me if I'm wrong but the only two console games they've developed since the Ps2 days is Catherine and the upcoming SMTxFE right?

 

[Gregorn]

If you click on a box loads and then click on a city, the boxes stay shaking. I spent like 5 minutes getting them all to shake at the same time and it did nothing.

Well they are the ones who came up with the idea of Persona 4 Arena even if they don't develop it, no?
