The nicovideo page has Teddie on it so I guess it is P4 related.
Not necessarily. They can't show anything from P5 if it is P5.

Possbily unrelated but the Atlus USA forums are shutting down. One line caught my eye though:

Atlus: and if it was not Persona 5?
While we continue to wait for the announcement to be made on November 24, the possibility of a Persona 5 seems to move away slowly when you discover that the person in charge of dubbing Nanako Dojima threw a PDF on canvas summarizing his career, a career that includes the words "two Golden Persona 4" and "Persona 4 Golden Vol. 2 ".
A real result rather provide an episode with an original background?
At the same time, Amazon.jp says that the monthly magazine about the Persona series will just return next month.
Someone saw this on Gamekyo?

They're shutting down their forums the last day before the big announcement? That's got to mean they think people are going to be pissed, right?
More like awesome as shit"This is a purrrfect opurrrtunity for an all out attack!"
...That would be annoying as shit.
No, they are shutting the forum down for other reasons.They're shutting down their forums the last day before the big announcement? That's got to mean they think people are going to be pissed, right?
They made the announcement twelve days ago and the place was a ghost town.They're shutting down their forums the last day before the big announcement? That's got to mean they think people are going to be pissed, right?
Huh? I'd think it would be easier for people to voice their disapproval through social media than it would through a forum you have to sign up to.
Slightly off-topic, I hope we here more about Devil Survivor 2: Break Record soon.
I'm not picky about the platform this game is coming out on, but I sort of want the game to be announced on platforms that will cause the greatest meltdowns on gaf.

PS4 Persona incoming.
That would be either 3DS or iOS, for a number of reasons.I'm not picky about the platform this game is coming out on, but I sort of want the game to be announced on platforms that will cause the greatest meltdowns on gaf..

They can shut down their official forums but they can't shut down GAF, how is that any different?Sure, but they can't shut down twitter and facebook. You really think the decision to do it this week is a coincidence?
I don't know about that, but a lot of users would be VERY pissed if either scenario happened.I could picture some users become inactive permanently if the latter happened.
It must be a joke or either Atlus definitely lost their minds.I hope you're not joking bird.

Nothing wrong with jumping ship and it gives the game the best chances of cross gen.It must be a joke or either Atlus definitely lost their minds.

...How exactly? The best chances of cross gen is it being released for the PS3 and also for the PS4 (at the same time or the PS4 version being released a few months or years later). Atlus ignoring the huge install base of the PS3 would be insane.Nothing wrong with jumping ship and it gives the game the best chances of cross gen.
I think most jRPG series would benefit from moving to 3DS, but I am not sure about how popular Persona actually is in Japan, so... I dunno. I don't see it moving away from Sony consoles either, but it isn't impossible to happen.Is Persona that big that it would drastically benefit from moving to 3DS/iOS? I don't think we'll see the series moving away from PS3/PSV/PS4.
Isn't Atlus usually really down to earth when it comes to sales expectations?If it was PS4, we'd definitely have Persona 5 and Persona 6 probably within 2 years of each other again, as has been the norm with the series.
I'd also imagine this couldn't have been done without Sony's help, which may increase it's reach in terms of a fanbase(well, this plus being an oasis in a desert that is launch lineups or the first year of a new console). I'd still be worried about how well the game would have to sell in comparison to what they usually have to to be good business for Atlus...
You're assuming a PS4 Persona would be "next gen" and not go something like the Guilty Gear Xrd route....How exactly?

I guess you are missing my point, because I am not talking about graphics. My question was: How exactly Persona 5 being a PS4 title makes it easier for it to be a cross-gen title?You're assuming a PS4 Persona would be "next gen" and not go something like the Guilty Gear Xrd route.
That is the scenario I want to believe in. PS3 first, then PS4 and/or Vita later (or even at the same time, that is not important).Given how well Persona sold on Vita it might make sense to first release it on PS3 and then release a separate "Enhanced" edition a bit later on Vita/PS4.
Yeah, I don't think Persona 5 will "wow" people graphically, regardless of what system it is released for.and quite frankly, the odds of a Persona game being taxing on hardware seem incredibly low, given the track record.
Why would it be on PS4 when the console isn't even out in Japan until 2014?
Can't wait for those Nocturne models to have raytraced bump maps.You're assuming a PS4 Persona would be "next gen" and not go something like the Guilty Gear Xrd route.
If the Nintendo shareholder reports are anything to go by, I'm sure someone with a modicum of influence on Index salivates at the idea of f2p models being applied to demon collecting and compendiums. Obviously won't be the case thoughIs Persona that big that it would drastically benefit from moving to 3DS/iOS? I don't think we'll see the series moving away from PS3/PSV/PS4.
It just seems to me it would be easier to justify porting the game back to PS3 than making a PS3 game jump into next gen due to the install base.I guess you are missing my point, because I am not talking about graphics.

I see. Have Atlus ever done such thing as porting a new game to an older console? Because they seem to love doing the opposite.It just seems to me it would be easier to justify porting the game back to PS3 than making a PS3 game jump into next gen due to the install base.
Why not use something neutral instead?

Because ps4 is still going to come out eventually?...Why would it be on PS4 when the console isn't even out in Japan until 2014?
Persona 5 on PS4 would make me get the console the day of that release. Hell, I'd probably even look into importing a bundle if they did one.
It's not like the game is coming out tomorrow.Why would it be on PS4 when the console isn't even out in Japan until 2014?
From what we've been told around here, the game was probably pushed around platforms like a kid with bracers in his first day of middle school, so I wouldn't doubt it.This makes no sense. So a game that very likely started development on current gen is going to shifted to be a next gen only release and then they'll go back and make a current gen port?

It personally does strike me as a smarter idea to build the engine with PS4 in mind, thereby creating a foundation for game development for the entire next gen (like what happened with their entire PS2 output). To the extent possible, they can downport certain titles to Vita and, in the beginning, PS3.
