Btw, the game shipped 300k in Japan as of a month or so ago http://indexweb.jp/news/2013/10695.html

So that means about half of the sales came from overseas! 

Derp. I keep forgetting release dates due to living in a PAL region. 

Haha

GIFtacular.

(sobb) It's beautiful... and people say vita is dead

Seriously though, if Persona can sell that well on vita as a series which although popular is still fairly niche, surely Squenix or someone can make cash off a big, high profile game like a good FF or KH spin-off. Hell, just effing well port Type-0, on the basis of this it would do over 1m easily and would hardly be expensive to make

And so they release the sequel on PS3....

To be honest though, given how both the console versions and the handheld versions of persona games both do well, I'd imagine they make more money from doing a seperate enhanced PSV release later on by selling both to new buyers and double-dippers. I agree though that Vita could sustain an exclusive new mainline entry in the series

It'll sell even more there. And then they make bank from an enhanced Vita port a year or so after. 

Atlus have this all figured out!

Yes, and the fanbase will double dip the Golden version on the Vita a year later :)

Possibly, but I really don't like the fact that the 4 jRPGs that I am interested in and have been confirmed for next year (FF XV doesn't count) are all on PS3

KH 2.5HD, FFX HD, Persona 5 and Lightning Returns

I want the Japanese industry to move forward to next-gen! I don't want to have to get my PS3 out, the DualShock 4 is such a good controller.

Anyway, I know I'm going to have to wait ages for this game, so I'm not going to get too worked up about it
