You are doing it wrong Sega, you shouldn't be announcing the stupid shipment numbers.

I'm going to lose the bet at this rate!

1.8 million shipped is a lot of numbers already.
Some of the comments here is meh worthy.

This might end up at 3 Million when the price starts to drop at $30. There are sill a lot of people waiting for that magic number before purchasing.

Best JRPG of Generation ; )

Good, very good! I want the series to continue.

I tried to play this game, as it gets so much run here on VGC. But, it was too weird for me. I wasn't offended, or anything like that. I just didn't really get it.

I wonder if the anime will give this game a boost in sales.

Maybe, its possible. but the Games >>>> Anime
Persona 4 and 3 are legendary Games with amazing characters/story. But the anime-movie(Persona 3) was good, the Persona 4 ANIME-serie was very bad/boring. P5 is now legendary too with this fantastic story and world. i hope, the P5-anime is better than the P4-anime serie. Overall: Persona Games >>> Persona Anime, that is sure :)

Finally, someone that agrees with me here.

And yeah, Persona should be experienced as a game, any anime adaptations are a joke.

100 % yes, thats right !! :)

Honestly don't see the point in an Anime unless you never played the game and never want to. The game is like an anime itself.
