I can see it, hype sells. This just might make persona more popular than Tales of.

Persona has been more popular than Tales of for a while now though. :-/

This game is so good, i'm really hesitating to buy it, there is a risk, the risk im really sad when i finish it and then i cant play to any other game after that, this is what P4G did to me, i needed a break after that strong experience

Not sure P5 can top that

You know a game is good when others pale in comparison to it.

Im with the group that actually thinks it ll go over 2million.... call me crazy if you must, but I think it can do it, and it ll be well deserved.

I think a factor with P4G on PSV selling very well is because of a complete lack of other games. Any store that has a Vita section only has a small selections of games so no doubt a considerable sum of purchases could be a case of people saying "wth is this? Meh sure why not?" or seeing any list of PSV games with P4G being ranked as a 90+ Metacritic game.

I bought it for that reason, I had no clue what the game was about other than it was "Vita's best game" :D


But... did you enjoy it? and will you get the 5th one?

I did. I had no clue what P4G was and bought it only for its scores, didn't play it for a long time, and when I did, I stopped after a few hours because it wasn't really interesting (the story takes time to start). When I played again a few months later, I played 60-70 hours in 5 days, and since I bought P4 Arena, P4 Ultimax, Persona 3, Persona Q and I will take P4 DAN (I also watched the anime). And of course, I will buy P5, with preorder and collector if possible. 

 

So no, P4G is not selling because of a lack of other games, it deserves its scores and its sales, and I'm sure P5 will deserve the same things.

oh no... Best selling persona on PS2 couldn't achieve even one million

Can't wait for this game. After Witcher 3 this is the only RPG that can come close ot it.

P4G sold quite well considering that the Vita userbase is tiny. If Sony and Atlus put an effort into getting people aware of P5, then it should be able to hit 2 million lifetime.

Has it? I think Tales of as a brand is still more popular imo, P4 did great though.

This game will put it over, for me anyways in terms of popularity.

FF > DQ > Persona > Tales of
