Wonder if it'll be on PS2 still.

Atlus doesn't really have many options.

There was supposed to be a SMT game for PS3.... though haven't heard of that since 95 and i wonder if Atlus has the budget for it.

They aren't a big company and they are very conservative.

 it's already on PS2, all they have to do is localize the game.  I remember listening to IGN's Podcast Beyond a while back and they said they're making SMT4 for PS3.

It's the second Raidou Kuzunoha game. It was recently released in Japan. I wonder if it'll include the new director's cut of Nocturne.

Knowing Atlus, they probably might have to include it with the game.  You know how much they love their fans.

@superbeast1370

how recent was that podcast?

Atlus can make a PS3 game on a low budget.  They just have to use celshading a la Nocturne.  It will most likely not be technically impressive game visually but the art style would make it a serious looker.

Yeah, that was like... 3 years ago they said that....

and we haven't heard anything since.

"What ever happened to the Shin Megami Tensei PS3 title, any rumblings from Atlus Japan at all or did they get eaten by demons?

AJ: Sadly, this too is just a rumor, but it would certainly be an exciting development. And it would certainly make me feel better about the answer to the first question in this interview."

But... it was announced.

I mean this guy is just from the American division right?

I mean Sony announced it in 05.

How can it go from "announced game" to "rumor".

Bring on PERSONA 5! PS3 EXCLUSIVE BABY!!!

i never really payed any attention to the SMT games regretably until P3. That game stole my heart. Then I played Persona 4, out did 3, and stole the number 3 spot in my top RPG franchises of all time(FF, Kingdom Hearts, SMT:Persona).

I was thinking now that I might go back and try Nocturne, which seems to be really popular.

I would just love a new Persona or a SMT game for PS3!

This is what word of mouth can do to a game years after it comes out.  The demand became so high that Atlus had to do a reprint of the game last year even though the game came out over 4 years ago.  That's partially why the series has been gaining some serious steam recently with Persona 3 and 4.

it does look like a sackboy.
