I dont really know how Nintendo gamers would talk Persona 5 on 3ds. I mean I myself have a 3ds, and bought Soul Hackers and all other SMT games on the 3ds, but im just one of few. The Nintendo fanbase do not really buy SMT that much, just look at the sales chart. Compare the sales to those games, to the sales of Persona 4: Golden. Index knows that the Persona fanbase is still on Ps3/Vita So that is why I think they will target their games there. SMT has always been with Nintendo for awhile now, even the DS had SMT games while PSP had Persona games. But hey, if P5 comes out on 3ds, I guess ill be playing it on my 3ds lol.


If Nintendo fans don't buy SMT why would they keep making SMT games for Nintendo systems? lol. Persona is just more popular than the other SMT games.

Also, if you're looking at the sales here, know that they're overtracked (outside of Japan).

Im just going to take a wild guess and say its because developing SMT games for the ds/3ds is not expensive at all, and also due to the fact that they do not have to be graphic intense because people would be like "Well it is on the ds/3ds so the graphics will only be so good." With such a low budget for these games, you do not have to sell as high number of copies of the game, unlike if you make a very high budget console game. However, I think that with games like Persona 5, people expect it to be on a console like Ps3. What comes with that is expectations that the graphics and other areas are very high quality, kind of like Catherine. Much bigger budget, and what comes with bigger budgets is that you have to sell more copies of the game to profit. I dont know if you will understand that, Im kind of bad when it comes to explaining some stuff xD
