Wanted some English screens! Oh well. Day freaking one!

It's Persona 3, and it's portable. 'Nuff said.

AMEN TO THAT!

cj iwakura · 01-20-2010, 11:41 AM

Really didn't expect this was coming. Ah well.

four_black_hearts · 01-20-2010, 11:42 AM

Got excited when I saw "Atlus announces", then angry when I saw what it was. Really would have preferred anything I haven't already bought twice!

Sakubo · 01-20-2010, 11:45 AM

Looks like another game I will have to buy !

Andy · 01-20-2010, 11:45 AM

Third time is most definitely the charm.

gunshottrigun · 01-20-2010, 12:03 PM

Is this title going to be released the same week (of July) on the PSN?
Atlus seems to have been doing a really good job with supporting their titles on the PSN and giving them reasonable to steal prices. While I understand (and am not complaining) that the title will be $40, which is by all means fair, I would love to see it on the PSN that week of July 6th.

And people thought Atlus hated money.

Mellusia · 01-20-2010, 12:22 PM

Yays~ Can't wait 'til July. Thank you Atlus ^^

Kenji · 01-20-2010, 12:29 PM

Yeah, sure. I wasn't exactly clamoring for this, but since it's coming anyway, I'll pick it up. Day One, too.

Maniacs difficulty is the biggest draw, but I am curious about the execution of the female scenario. The general idea sounded a bit disappointing, but I won't know for sure until I've gone in and played it for myself. I wanna see if this has anything interesting to say about the differences in treatment between men and women among Japanese teens.

Andy · 01-20-2010, 12:36 PM

I hope it comes with some bonus stuff. When I saw the calendar and shirts that the Japanese version was getting I was really tempted to import.

Haha lolol that'll be Namco Bandai actually.

Lorinosan · 01-20-2010, 12:55 PM

Cool announcement but not for me thank you. I already own the game...twice.

Tee23 · 01-20-2010, 01:16 PM

Oh how my prayers have been answered!! ;__; Happy daaay!

Sseklebeast · 01-20-2010, 01:34 PM

I love you Atlus but I'm not buying this again.

Vicious1915 · 01-20-2010, 01:38 PM

Sweet action!!!

Good job!

Vyse of Arcadia · 01-20-2010, 02:16 PM

Friggin' finally. The Japanese version was announced months ago.

Like others have posted, I'd have been happier with a game I haven't already bought twice. But I think they've added enough to warrant a third purchase. Day one if I have the money, later otherwise.

uraH · 01-20-2010, 03:33 PM

This is the only reason I got a PSP for Christmas, I just love you Atlus, I'll go to preorder it now~

Saburo Hikari · 01-20-2010, 03:54 PM

I have the Japanese version of Persona 3 Portable, but still, since Persona 3 was one of the games that greatly increased what I expect in J-RPGs...

Day one pre-order, day one purchase. Can't wait to hear how the Female Main Character sounds, and I hope (but I doubt) that Atlus changes or improves some of the character's voices.

WishDiosaFelina · 01-20-2010, 03:58 PM

I love you so much!!

BaizDaza · 01-20-2010, 04:12 PM

Awesome, day one.

And a question, is there a cannon name for the female protagonist? I suck at coming up with names. sadface

sadly no but maybe someone can do a manga adaption of P3P. Minato Arisato was the MC's name in the P3 Manga and Souji Seta is P4 MC's name in the P4 Manga.

H3artagram · 01-20-2010, 06:02 PM

Looking forward to this, although I have a bad feeling that if a Strategy Guide is released it's gonna cost more than the game.

Hinata Arisato.

(For me, anyway).

Also, I'm just gonna leave this here.

Gen Eric Gui · 01-20-2010, 08:46 PM

Not gonna happen.

Xfraze · 01-20-2010, 09:08 PM

I'm as happy as I am upset. Devil Survivor was fun and all, but I found myself wishing for something like the combat found in P3 instead of the strategy nonsense. But I also already beat P3, maxed all the links, and got all the characters to 99, so in many ways I'm saddened that I'll probably end up doing it all again.

xeno · 01-20-2010, 09:51 PM

COOL!
While I can't preorder this right now due to funds I WILL preorder it ASAP

Thank you Atlus

EDIT: despite the above, I must ask, will there be any preorder bonus's for it?
I've heard the Japanese version got some really cool bonus's.

Somehow I doubt it's going to be what I'm hoping for but deep down in my heart I still believe and harbor the hope it will be.

JeremyR · 01-21-2010, 01:52 AM

I was hoping for this. I never got the PS2 versions because I knew I'd never sit around and play them. But this, I will buy, play for 10 hours, then quit. (Probably, that seems to be what I've done with Disgaea 2 and Mana Khemia on the PSP)

Manic Expressive · 01-21-2010, 03:07 AM

Not paying for the same game again, no thank you.

TheDoctor · 01-21-2010, 03:38 AM

Maybe I'll get it, I'm intrigued to play the female side of the story and see how combat is going to be when you actually control the other party members but I'm still wondering why I bought FES when my experience with the original version was mixed.

Still, I don't see why people doubted Atlus was going to bring this over. Bringing Megaten to NA is almost thankfully a given nowadays.
