Sure, but the reasoning isn't really important. The fact that it happened is what is important. For all we know, the same type of deal could have occured here or Atlus decided they didn't like the way games looked or played on the 360 or Atlus doesn't like MS's stance these day or sega wants atlus with sony, there could be any number of reasons.

Hopefully it bombs and this will be the last PS3 game. Lets put those ugly framerates and sub-HD in the past forever, prease Japanese companies who suck at new tech.
Every single anime fighting game sells like shit on 360. The entire anime scene is on Playstation.

It obviously differs from person to person. There's the obvious stuff like drugs, sex, drinking, etc; but a lot of students undergo a sort of quarter-life crisis or have some sort of existential freakout during their college years. I'd really love to see a game tackle that.
I'm thinking the same thing but maaan, I can still dream.

Because it's been in development since '10, if not earlier.

Don't say that. If it bombs it'll be the last persona. Not the last PS3 game

Not Eternal Punishment, but half of the duology was, sure.

The salt from PS4 owners is really something.

I'm ok with that, then maybe we'd have a proper sequel to SMT: Nocturne. I wanna see SMT's return to consoles.
I agree, I want the series to tackle things like this too in this day and age. The real problem is you are citing college experiences in the west but japanese college life is nothing like this.
No one says it needs to take place in Japn though......

You're right, I forgot about EP. I suppose the P3 team in P4A would be the same situation.
You are purposely acting as banbait, aren't you? Well no, I fell for this once in an AA thread, never again.
For Japanese sales that makes sense. NPD charts might look differently, but Persona 4 Arena was incredibly niche for the 360 market, even more so when compared to traditional JRPG's.
I really doubt that. It would be nice to know the exact reason though, but I'm not really demanding it.

Thankfully, their fan base is nothing like this guy.

lmao what a shit post. "oh atlus, please give me the opportunity to buy a 400$ system just for your game"
As I said, it could be any of those reason and I'd like to know too and we probably will at some point from some type of insider info but, in the end, it is hardly surprising. The only surprise is if P5 had actually ended up only on the 3DS. Come on now fools.

Persona is Atlus's most successful franchise at the moment.
If it bombs, Atlus may be in trouble. People might get laid off. And that's okay to you?

Apparently Persona fans are really, really emotionally attached to the PS3. Sorry guys, I didn't mean to offend your precious. I'll just continue waiting for SMT outside of this thread

Were people really expecting it to come to the PS4 considering Persona 4 was released on the PS2 two years after the PS3 was released?
... damn, now i feel old. I even remember pre-odering the special edition that came with the shirt and the Teddie plush.

I'm so glad I decided to sleep through the stream. And I'm so happy it all worked out in the end :>
Now, I have to pray my phat PS3 survives that long

Unfortunately I don't think that's gonna happen. We'll see, though. I'm gonna hope for the best.
I don't think grad school

With that said, I am genuinely curious on what Japanese undergrad is like.
Say that to everyone who bought them then. The complete series is available on Vita, a portable, how in the fucking hell it doesn't makes sense for you?

Thats was the second Persona game on ps2. Persona 3 came in 2006 so your point is kind of moot. At this rate P6 would be a PS3 game in 2016. Thats insane. Thats why Altus should try and build an audience as quickly as possible there.

I'll be honest: I didn't imagine PS4 would have the most annoying port begging.

And this is what people will remember you by.
The guy who doesn't like Persona.
And that's just no good.
lol
Up until this gen, most of their games were on consoles. PS3 has only seen three from the Persona team (counting P5).

Please find somewhere in that post where anyone asked for a port of this game. I dare you. You crazy people are trying to turn a comment about crap platform selection into a port begging post for no reason other than being Persona lunatics.

Hmm, true. Not really thinking since I had to work overnight on a project.
But before we even see P6, they have to re-release Persona 3 and Persona 4 again. And then make P5: super edition for the vita.

Nah, if you actually bothered to read anything I've said instead of making some uninformed blanket statement then you'd see I'd rather it be on PS4. But your posts are stupid because 1) you make it sound like they should go for second son type graphics in Persona and 2) you are asking for a game that many many people have been waiting for long time for to bomb just because it didn't get on the system you wanted. Childish and misinformed is really the best way to describe your stance thus far in this thread.

Really? I'd expect any next-gen console to constantly have port beggers if any companies DARE to release a game for the previous gen.

Only thing better would've been a PS4 game, but I ain't even mad. My PS3 is going to stay hooked up anyway due to my huge library and PS+. PS3 showing it's gonna have legs like PS1 and PS2. With great games still coming out and price points finally dropping to sub $200, 100+ million consoles is looking pretty likely. Amazing if Sony pulls that off for 3 consoles in a row.

As much as I wanted SMT4 to be on consoles, I can't be mad at all at what they produced.
It's my personal GOTY.

Those people that grew up are expected to have stopped playing games in Japan.
