What my issue is... this is gonna be a Japan only release for now... Later, hopefully if Sega doesn't fuck up, they will come to NA... But I don't see that happening till 2015

With that being said, even though its on the ps3, Maybe it will use Gaikai to stream to the ps4 since its coming out so late... But yea, day 1 purchase for both unless persona 5 magically comes with the wiiU which is less likely to happen then Valve making any game with #3 on it... which is apparently never

That how Altus thanks who buy p4g on vita ,with a dance game it's really sad.

Screw you all I'm looking forward to the dancing game lol!

A year later we can all look forward to Persona 5 the Diamond on VITA anyway

Were you the one I replyed to with this some time ago?

I'll elaborate this time. 3DS only really got a "better" Persona announced back then because, even before launch, they had basically promised a Persona game for 3DS. So they were like "Hey, let's take a series by Atlus that was/is relatively popular on the DS (Etrian Odyssey) and give it a Persona makeover", and thus Q was born. It's basically what Persona 4 Arena is: They took another franchise and gave it a Persona skin.

Dancing All Night is similar in that it seems to be pretty much what the Project Diva games are. These are popular among the PSP/Vita crowd as well, so it seems like a good fit.

I'm pretty sure the Vita will get a port (probably enhanced) of Persona 5 in the future, but it would have never gotten an exclusive mainline game. That's not gonna happen, and that has never happened to a handheld before (has it?), so I'm not really sure what you expected. Sure, Vita could have gotten a spinoff RPG, too, but it's just the way it is. Besides, since P4D seems to feature a story mode, I really can't complain, because that's what matters most to me. And rhythm games can be really addictive, too, so I really look forward to it.

considering that the two new systems are doing much better than the system that has BC id say LOLs are in order.

just P5 love P4, i dont like the type of game the 3ds one is, never did it for me. Hell i would get that vita dance game before that.

I'm actually intrigued by dance game. It kinda makes sense since Rise was an idol and the game should build on P4's story. 

If it was a rpg spin off it would be ok,and i would  see many persona  fans buying the game  but not a dancing game,since this spin off look similar to Project Diva people will buy Project Diva games not this.

A rpg persona would also help vita more then this.

It would, true, but it's just that I don't know why you would expect that.

Never was there a Persona RPG that launched on a handheld first. The first one will be Persona Q, but that's just because they took the first series (that they have full access too) that lends itself well as a Persona game and is  (more or less) popular  on the system the game will be on. Same thing happened to the Vita, just that there, the game that lends best to a Persona makeover (that Sega have access to) is a dancing game. Both platforms really got the same treatment.

Etrian Odyssey already had a game on the 3DS, so they can take a lot of ressources from that project. The Vita, however, doesn't have much Sega/Atlus games to begin with, and thus, the best thing they thought of was taking a game that's already on Vita (Project Diva) and do what they'll do with Etrian Odyssey on the 3DS.

Besides, Persona 4 fits really well for a dancing game. I mean, Rise was an idol after all. In my opinion, it fits better than the BlazBlue crossover that is Arena, and even that turned out pretty good.

I understand your disappointment, but looking at it, a Persona RPG on the Vita (and only on the Vita) was and is extremely unlikely to happen. Again, it only happened on the 3DS since they already had an RPG style series that they could reskin. Nothing more, nothing less. Both games are just there to get some quick cash from the fans. That's they way they make business. Persona 5 is the only "real" (Persona) game they announced, and that is (as expected) on the PS3. And again, I'm pretty sure it'll arrive on the Vita sooner or later (as that means almost free money for Atlus/Sega).

I hope I don't sound to negative about these games. In fact, I'm more hyped about them than Persona 5, since I'd really only call me a Persona 4 fan at the moment (haven't tried out the other ones in the series yet), so more Persona 4 is better news to me than Persona 5.

Why is this thread alive again ? I thought it was a localization announcement.
