Setting up a stream three whole days in advance?! That doesn't happen often, does it?

Once the stream begins they should just loop Hiimdaisy's Persona 4 comic series for 72 hours

Maybe in 2-3 years, right now there's no way they would make it a PS4 exclusive.
6 AM EST
It's weird, but I guess they want to hype that countdown up.

I would be happy with a PS3 version announced now, with a PS4 expanded up-port version following the year after.
I'll probably end up sleeping through the announcement. I usually wake up at 10 on Saturdays.
Not sure I get it though, what are they going to stream during 72 hours, a simple countdown?
It's a 72 hour countdown which will be on Niconico's front page as well as the main streaming page (presumably the p-ch page as well). It's just advertising really.

Pretty much this for me! I don't care what P5 is released on as long as P5 is released soon.
They did announce the teaser site back in September.
Ah makes sense, thanks.
Atlus is reviving its Persona magazine as well apparently:

Atlus is reviving its Persona Magazine, an Amazon Japan listing has revealed.
Persona Magazine was a monthly magazine about all things Persona that ran for 11 issues from 2011 to 2012.
While the last issue of the magazine was #One More (which followed issue #10″
The magazine revival coincides with Atlus expected Persona game announcement this Sunday, which might be a sequel to Persona 4. Maybe.
Thanks, Game Jouhou.
They wouldn't bother making a 72 hour countdown stream if it was just that. They are hyping it up and I don't it would be fore something like that.
I can't speak for everyone, but for me, it's really all in the system itself. The PS4 game I'm playing most is Assassin's IV, which is odd because I don't really care about visuals with regards to that game. I could've easily played it on PS3 or 360.
But the PS4 has a better OS in every sense and a better controller on top of that. For me, the most immediate next-gen advantage isn't visuals, but functionality; ease of use.
I never really took the possibility of P5 on PS4 seriously until last weekend. Since then, the less I have to play my PS3, the better.

Now that is something hype-worthy.
I see. Well, the PS4 is $400 and has 0 games that interest me, so Persona 5 being a PS4-exclusive title would be one of the worse scenarios for me. I'd rather it be released for a console I already own (PS3 or 3DS) or even for a cheaper device I don't own yet, but I could afford one in the next couple months (Vita). To each their own, though.
Well it makes sense considering they have a series of anime movies for Persona 3, P4U2 coming up, and.... more.

I just remembered I work at 8AM EST on Sunday.
Naturally.
Naturally.
I don't find OS to be that big of a deal when playing the game and Persona games were never controller heavy games to begin with.
I agree, everyone should share in the inevitable excellence that is to come, fuck throw it on pc too. The more the merrier and the less games people can bitch and crow about being exclusive.
Fuck, now I wish the whole series was available on steam or something
The Share button.
6AM EST is pretty much the worst time for me unfortunately
Too late to stay up and too early to wake up. Might just have to try and catch a replay of the stream and read the whole gaf meltdown!
You know you gotta be there.
I don't really find that worth paying 400 dollars for right now.

So it is going to be 360/PS3?
Hopefully the Sega ties at least help it have a chance to WiiU (but likely not)

Okay...? I'm not talking about what would justify a PS4 purchase for you, I'm talking about the features that would make a PS4 version worth it for those that own one, like Inorigo mentioned.

Bird brings the word?
Seriously dude...how long ago do you think it was that Sega bought Atlus? Just think about it for a second.
The share button, multitasking, just the simple act of getting in and put of a game is so much faster on PS4.
Again this is stuff I never even talked about prior to actually getting my PS4. If it doesn't matter to other people, fine. I'm just stating why I'd rather play a game there than on PS3 or 3DS or whatever. Me personally.
Don't play with my heart!

I would literally do backflips
It's not like P5 would come anytime sooner than Q3 2014 or something.
I don't have a reason to buy a PS4 right now either, but just like a 3DS I know it's just a matter of time. It'll eventually have enough titles to justify buying one, and P5 would count for about five of them.

Well said
If main platform is PS3, I wouldn't be surprised of a Wii U Port with touch screen stuff. Atlus and Nintendo were buddy-ing it up with FE x SMT
For us that only understand Japanese on a Eroge/Shounen level...Seriously, someone should live stream and translate for us
EDIT: meh, thats a lie I can barely understand Shounen level stuff either...

Persona 4-2; with Yu and Aegis' stories.
If they do a PS4 release, then that's fine with me.
Think about this shit. It's not like they do the announcement and the next day they go "SURPRISE bitches Persona 5 on PS4 out....NOW."
This shit's gonna take time. Months, man. A year later? Even better. Well fuck, along the way PS4 might have had a temp sale and have an acceptable $250-300 price tag.
