Persona - Niche game that they make exclusive instead of multiplat.  Persona 4 and 5 should be on every console.  Persona Q should have been on both 3DS and VIta

Persona 5 will be on PS3 and PS4.  if it were released on 360, Wii U, and X1 how much do you think sales would increase?

At least 1.

While admirable, would not justify the cost of porting. Atlus has made zero mistakes on their handling of the main series. Some of the SMT spinoffs have been everything, so better direction may be needed there. I don't think that's where the problem is though.

If it was on PC, WiiU, XBO, PSV id say it would increase by 100% if not more.

Honestly, this just seems insane. There will be a handheld version in the future. Atlus while apart of Sega still has a small team, so they would have to really elongate the development or bring in another studio to do the porting. I don't know how that's a good idea.

You realize you're claiming that Persona 5 would clear 2+ million if on platform that don't have JRPG fans.
