My mistake. It is the best-selling Atlus game at launch, outdoing Persona's sales record. It is still one of the best-selling games from Atlus (just not THE best-selling).

So leaving whatever fanbase on the 360 that you could gather (250k are a lot considering their expectations for Catherine on North America were only 200k between both the Ps3 and the 360) is a bit dirty :(

If i were you i'd keep your friends ps3

So is this a squeal? cause I still havent picked up the first one.

I think its an updated version like Super Street Fighter IV to Street Fighter IV because that's what Atlus explained when they released it for the arcade. So if you didn't picked up the original version, then your in luck.


But dont they already have one like that o.O?

So this is like....Super Street Fighter IV "Arcade" XD.

Damn you Capcom for creating the trend to re-create the same damn game each year!

Usually with Persona an updated or enhanced version goes to the handhelds. P4:AUSH was never originally intended to have a console counterpart. They just planned to keep it in the Arcades but I guess the demand was high and Sega probably put some money into it. lol!

Now if they come out with another P4A ala Ultra Street Fighter IV. Then I would really be pissed at Capcom xD

What does Catherine have to do with anything, you have to compare the numbers to the actual same series and the 360 version of P4A didnt do well at all.

Right, because it was a wise bussiness decision to release the (I think) only online region-locked game on a region-locked machine. Meaning you can only play with the very few niche players that also bought the game on the same region, forget about playing with people of other places.

 

Brilliant.

that had very little effect on sales, and both versions were region locked but that didnt stop the PS3 version frome doing 410,000

The Persona fanbase is stronger on Playstation systems, we agree on that. But the debut of Catherine was positive from both Playstation and Xbox 360, yet instead of making multiplatform a new entry on your RPG franchise, you instead make a 2D-fighting game over the fourth game story. Do you really think that was a good move for newcomers on the 360?

Let's compare it with Final Fantasy. Yes, it has a bigger following and can spend more millions in advertising. But when they put XIII on the 360, the game managed to sell two million units. Do you really think it would have sold as good if instead of making the next chapter of the saga multiplatform, Square Enix would have made a 2D fighting game about Final Fantasy XI and put it on 360? Really?

 

That was as dumb as SEGA making the first and second entry from Yakuza multiplatform on a HD release for WiiU Japan only and then say "poor WiiU sales will make us not putting any other Yakuza game on that machine". They simply screwed any fanbase they could have had.
