Persona 5 is selling very very well (best Atlus launch ever), no need for ports, it will easily be profitable. We could see the future P5 spin off games on other platform though. The new SMT, on the other hand, is a lot more risky if it launches only on a console with an unknown (but a lot smaller anyway) userbase.

Makes no sense... if P5 is selling very very well (best Atlus launch ever) then why not put it on other systems? 

Then why bother with exclusives at all? When a game is exclusive to a console, one of the only reasons to go multiplatform post-launch is poor sales on the original platform, when you need more sales to be profitable. Not the case here, so no reason to break the 15 years old PS exclusivity, especially if it's for a few percents of the PS sales.

(One other reason for ports is the late PC ports, allowing some devs to charge full price again for games released a relatively long time ago. But Atlus never did it, so no reason to start now.)
