Hummm, that's a fair accessment, but given that they have also published Demon's Souls on a HD console and it has shown that it can sell well, even for a new IP, I think that they could afford to do the jump to the HD consoles, especially given the brand power behind the Persona IP.
Edit - By them, I mean Atlus, not the producers of the Persona series xD
