Attn: all you Americans who posted huge walls of games coming out later this year that you'd like to buy
I haven't posted about it recently, but for those of you who didn't know, Best Buy's paid membership program confers a 20% discount on all new (unopened) games, including preorders. I'm not going to hit my limit of 3 copies per game anytime soon, so if you'd like, I can save you guys some money by ordering games mailed to your address or for pickup at your local Best Buy.
For convenience's sake, I put together a list of upcoming releases sorted by release date. PM me or something if you're interested.

Don't they need YOUR signature before the delivery guy can hand over the package to us?

Inspired by some of the great art you've been doing, I thought I'd throw my hat into the ring, with a digital painting I have just completed. I know Aigis week hasn't officially been called yet, but consider this my submission if it goes ahead.

They need a signature, period. It doesn't matter who.
Don't think so. Can't say I've actually looked at the official policies, but I think all they need is an adult to sign confirmation that it was delivered to the right place. I used to sign for people at my house all the time (with my name). Person who signs takes responsibility that it was delivered, essentially.

Nah, it's probably just eggplant.
Off topic, sorry, but I'd appreciate suggestions for the P4AU Import OT title for when it goes up on the 21st.
It's going up assuming the game's region free (which it most likely is), so the only ones I came up with are: "Region Emancipation", "P-1 Climax" and "The P-1 Saga's Final Chapter." I was thinking any Sho puns would be better for the NA release OT.

Better than actual body parts from Aigis. lol
Nope. They don't need my ID for an in-store pickup order either.

I don't really know where I'm supposed to post this, and what to say, so I'll just explain it here if it's alright.
I ordered this: http://ebten.jp/p/4984995900971/ (P4AU Famitsu DX Pack + Newcomer's Package)
The order went through. I saved the email confirmation, and PayPal transaction. Then, today, while looking at my info on the site, I accidentally clicked the "close account" button. Will my order still be sent? Is someone here on PersonaGAF who is familiar with ebten know how it works?

This looks like Pineapple Pie. I would know, I've seen quite a few of those in my lifetime. Also you're a horrible person despite how funny this image is. ;_;
Just a reminder that the big dacidbro/lordknight/atlusprime 'cast happens this friday, post questions if you got any.

You meant "isn't", right? Since the updated art with Marie and Margaret is the currently displayed box art.

Gotcha. I doubted there was going to be another DLC character, thinking that another character would be something like BBCP's Kagura, but now I dunno. Hm. It's interesting. Is it only for that time where the current box art disappears?

Hm... I do like the Sho puns.
I believe we.are.the.armada will be the one heading the NA OT. Not sure if we'll just make a copy/paste of the import OT or if he'll be doing his version. Guess we'll see.
The plot thickens.

Checking it myself. The dates correspond to character announcers on the website:
August 11: Elizabeth
August 12: Labrys
August 13: Nanako
August 14: Naoto
August 15: Fuuka
August 16: Teddie
August 17: Akihiko
August 18: Kanji
August 19: Aigis
August 20: Yukiko
August 21: Mitsuru
August 22: Chie
August 23: Ken
August 24: Yosuke
August 25: Junpei
August 26: Rise
August 27: Yukari
August 28: Yu
August 29: Minazuki
August 30: [Redacted]
August 31: Marie
September 1: Margaret
September 2: Nothing
Mystery solved!
Edit: This more than anything before makes me believe Margaret is the final character (unless Fuuka and Nanako were PCs... which can't be happening). The two possibilities I had in mind were Makoto and the Malevolent Entity—and maybe it would be weird for those two in particular to be all "Hey, what's up? Buy this game!"—but there's been no indication at all that there would be any other character after Margaret. Unless this really is some major secret they're keeping until the game releases (which would mean literally nothing indicating their presence until that point, and not even having them be announcers on the website shortly post-release), everything has been pointing to Margaret being the last one (DLC cards, this website discovery, box art, etc.).
Yukiko's trailer mentioned [Redacted] the day he was revealed. Teddie's trailer mentioned Marie the day she was revealed. Marie's trailer showed Margaret two weeks before she was revealed. If Margaret's trailer doesn't hint at anything, that's another check mark.

I'm watching a Let's Play of P4G (while skipping Marie S. Link and night conversations) and wow, it's a lot way easier. There are this skills cards which you can use to put a selected skill to any Persona you want, Shadow Yukiko got a weakness and the Prince runs away, the Shuffle Time just fuckin' gives you the cards to select and even describes it's use, now the people with quests will have a sign over their heads, etc. I feel truly mega oldschool hardcore right now
I like that the shadows have now a mask and the Gold Hand has its own model. Also, Kou and Daisuke & Ayane and the drama chick having a conversation the day their clubs are available is pretty cool.
yes I'm being delusional and need to play other Megaten games

At least you resolved the case, Naoto.

Yeah. I presume this was how some players could run Izanagi for their entire run.

Guilty as charged lol. I did the same with Orpheus on P3P for my first two runs of that. Meanwhile when I played FES before P3P I really only kept him around for a while because Cadenza was pretty damn helpful for a while. Shame that's how it was since I really liked Orpheus. In hindsight that's probably why I kept him around those first two P3P runs since I like him so much. By the end of my second P3P playthrough he had all 4 dynes, Megidolaon, Salvation, and I forgot the last two things lol (I do remember one melee attack in there). Stat boosting cards helped in keeping him relevant too during all of that time, and if I'm not mistaken he was maxed out in stats during the NG+. Kinda felt like a mad scientist those playthroughs, all things considered.
It really makes things too easy in ways lol.
I remember even less how my Izanagi turned out after one playthrough of P4G, but he had 3 of the 4 ma-dynes off the top of my head.
This is exactly how I managed to field Izanagi for the entire run. It's also more or less how I managed to keep Orpheus viable for the entirety of P3P.
In other news, Persona mutations fucking suck. Every persona involved in my attempt to mutate this persona has gained the ability to mutate into another Persona, and all of them have had multiple parameter increases and new skills.
But will Shaka fucking evolve for me? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooOOOOOOOOOOOooo

I have question regarding PQ, and this probably would be considered as spoilers. Although it's more about the game's mechanics.... but just in case.
Thanks, I'm just curious.
Will the main personas of the cast evolve? (like Jiraya to Susano-o) is it plot related or level related?
Thanks, I'm just curious.
MiguelMexMIstery

Yes, they do evolve. They evolve after doing a quest for Margaret (I think it's fighting her). She says something different about Koro and Shinji.
Xenoflare
Member
So all of the main personas evolves in one quest? Wow. Will Koro and Shiji make sense... since they never had evolved personas in P3

I'm not sure if it's that or if it's only the ones you have in the party because I have the fear of getting spoiled somehow lol.

Fair enough, thanks!
Ultimax got rated in Australia. ...Published under SEGA.
Awesome, I guess they'll publish it in Europe as well.

I think that's a safe guess considering Australia is part of the PAL Region(I.e. Europe) when it comes to Video Games

Does Persona Q have floor jump like EOU?
Does it also have full auto mapping? (Mapping out walls just like in EOU)...
