Unlikese Persona 3 PSP, I would definitely get this one if both EP and IS was released in english. Honestly I was thinking this one would be next after the first one was released on PSP.

I personally don't think Persona did well, Personal 3 Portable probably it's going to do way better. Most people only want to play P3.

The way I see it Atlus probably wants to raise money for a console game. I'm not sure how popular P3 was in Japan but they are aware that in the West people really liked that one game.

Like I said somewhere else, I'd rather get ports of some of the games we didn't get than ports of games we did. I have hopes that Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers will get a PSP port.

Though it would be nice to get an official Persona 2: IS translation.

Persona PSP can't have done too badly in Japan at least, as going by Siliconera's story on some Atlus sales report it sold far better than they expected
Quote:
Persona (PSP) – 160,000 (50,000 expected)
They may have skipped P2 for the P3P port for now, but those numbers are surely a bit promising. I would assume you're right that P3P will probably sell far more though, but that doesn't rule 2 out entirely. I hope ^^;
I think that EP was one of the first Atlus games I played, and nostalgia alone would easily make me pick it up again if it were released as P2P even without IS (although it would be significantly better if it were included. I picked up a JP copy off of ebay a couple of months ago so I could use it for the trans patch, and I've love to play it 'officially'. Was in surprisingly good condition, had some holo card with it and everything ).

I would buy absolutely any Persona (or MegaTen, really) ported to the PSP. Even those that I already own.

Why? Because I rarely have time to sit in front of my TV and spend 100+ hours on an RPG. Portables are what allows me to sink major time into games. I owned both Disgaea 1 and 2 on PS2, but it wasn't until the PSP releases that I really got into them.

I'm halfway through "The Answer" on Persona 3: FES, and even then I still plan on buying the PSP port.

Wow... That's 110,000 more than they expected, if my math is right. So if those numbers in anyway influenced P3P, than even if we do get a port of P4 (which I would still be perfectly happy with) then the sales data from P3P could influence P4 or P2, then we would most likely get the one we didn't get from P3P sales. And since we know Atlus, we'd probably get it. I'M COUNTING ON YOU, ATLUS! I didn't play Persona 3 before... So yeah, I NEED them to bring us Persona 3 portable.

Also, regarding domestic P2 potential (I can't speak for how popular it is in Japan compared to P1 and P3), I can't help but remember that Eternal Punishment reprint that occurred near P4's launch... that lasted all of, what, one day?

Basically, there is nothing in IS that would stop Atlus from localising a PSP port. Feel free to prove me wrong.

^I have a really hard time believing anyone would even notice. Despite the surge of popularity of Persona in the West due to P3/P4, I'm pretty certain the content in IS would fly right under the radar.

The religious nutjobs argument reminds me of when Xenogears came out in Japan and every magazine was saying it wouldn't come out here because of the religious theme.

Or when Nocturne came out in Japan and everyone said it wouldn't come out here because of the religious themes.

From what I was told the original Persona was very popular in 90s, even more than P3, so there was a nostalgia factor. Apparently the numbers started to drop off when people began to notice the things they changed. O_o

Yeah, it sold out pretty quickly, I think a lot was people buying the game to re-sell it for more later.

There was a reprint back in 2005 or 2006 as well. I remember seeing it new at EBgames for like $25.

I'd buy Innocent Sin, but I don't know about EP since I already own it... maybe if I can sell my original version for a profit and the new version had some type of improvements (or have both games in one).

Yeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaahhhhh I think i would have to agree with you. It's not like there's anything to get noticed. Does it have Mass Effect content? No. Too violent? No. Killing innocents? No. It seems fine to me. THEY SHOULD ANNOUNCE IT FOR THE SAKE THAT IT WOULDN'T GET BAD ATTENTION, LOL

^I'm not sure what you are implying, but I am quite aware of what is in IS. It just isn't a high enough profile game for people bothered by such things to even notice or care.

^What i'm saying is that there's nothing to really make it M, or anything to get the medias attention. You won't see anything like TONIGHT'S HEADLINE: PERSONA 2 PSP WANTS HITLER? No. I don't think that that could happen. Unless people want to be stupid.

Yes, I would buy this if this came out at last.

Does it really matter if it came out rated M? I mean most of the SMT games are M... although the Persona series is usually T but still.

I will definitely buy any persona game made on the psp. One suggestion since some people didn't like the soundtrack with the remake of Persona Revelations I would suggest some were in the options to have original or new.

If they change the music in the PSP version of P2 I will bomb Atlus Japan and order a hit on Shoji Meguro.

I just saw the sales data for P3P... Both UMD and PSN... And they were amazing. I don't see why Atlus wouldn't remake it now. Unless... They don't want to. Or they don't want to make money. Or they have some other odd reason that I can't think of/explain.

Well, there's always P4P.

Seriously, though, it partially depends on how popular P2 was in Japan... as I understand it, it ranks below P1 and P3, but don't quote me on that. That said, P3P doing very well might increase the chances of a PSP P2 port... that'd be nice...

"Persona 2 PSP; Would you buy it?"
Yeah, I think. Maybe because I have a PSP with a small number of games lol

But Atlus, start thinking on making Xbox 360, PS3 or Wii Megaten games
Don't saying that i dislike portable games, but...
P1, P3P, Devil Survivor, Strange Journey... and now... You want P2P?
P2's a fu***** great game, the 2th at my ranking of best Shin Megami Tensei.
But... nah, enough with PSP and DS, at least for now. :/

2 and 4 are my absolute favorite Persona games. I'd much prefer a P2 or P4P port than anything else at the moment.

If both came out translated in English. I would definitely import from the US (live in Europe). Actually, I really want to play Persona 2 as I don't have either IS or EP and it doesn't seem like I will be able to buy them somewhere

I currently don't have a PSP but once Persona 2 came out, I would definitely buy one. However, I will probably buy one soon anyway, as I want to get Persona 1 PSP and some other games coming out next year.

I've come to realise that playing P2 with an actual PS1 controller instead of a keyboard makes the game much more enjoyable and makes navigating the battle menus much less of a pain in the ass.

Plus the music actually sounds the way it was intended to sound now!

I just read an interesting article on siliconera about how atlus JP is recruiting an army of debuggers... I hope that i'n right when i saw that the porting process from the PS1 to PSP could've made some bugs... or not. I don't know, but something new is coming for sure, if it isn't this.

Maybe Atlus messed up another demon password and summoned another slime that ate all of their debuggers.

Please sweet God that they are working on a PSP port of Soul Hackers.
