[EekumBokum]

Thinking about this more, I kinda wish they didn't reveal it so early.

 

[Thoraxes]

I'm hyped as fuck for whatever this and the 3DS titles end up being. Will definitely get the HD game on Switch for the portability. Also just give me a SMT complete series collection with all games on the SMT IV engine or something bonkers like that. I'll buy whatever it is.

Rose petals?

Odin?

Lightning confirmed.

 

[artsi]

TBH the Kaneko Odin looked kind of silly and this one is actually cool.

[NEO0MJ]

I just noticed Mara hiding but because he doesn't have glowing eyes it's possible to miss him when first watching the trailer.

 

[Rymuth]

You wut m8

 

[wmlk]

This shit is making me laugh.

 

[Veal]

Did anyone else get a Meowth's Party (original Spaceworld GCN reveal) vibe from this trailer? Maybe it was seeing Jack rendered like that?

 

[syeefoo]

Odin, what happened to your raven?

 

[LifeBrandRobot]

Now I know what PC gamers feel lol.

 

[_Ryo_]

Is this game Switch exclusive?

 

[Semajer]

Odin, what happened to your raven?

It's still there, just out of shot at that part of the trailer.

 

[BossDarkseid]

Is this game Switch exclusive?

We don't know for sure, and there's perhaps more precedence given that SMT(V?) will be in Unreal 4 but it probably is exclusive.

 

[StayDead]

He's trying to get in on this group shot.

 

[salromano]

We don't know for sure, and there's perhaps more precedence given that SMT(V?) will be in Unreal 4 but it probably is exclusive.

It doesn't seem likely to me. Just going by:

- Anniversary site lists "3DS Project" and "HD Project" - rather than "Switch Project"
- The trailer itself doesn't mention Switch (or any platform)
- The trailer's YouTube description doesn't mention Switch (or any platform)
- The anniversary site doesn't mention any platform

I'm guessing this will be Switch/PS4. I wish Atlus would be more transparent about it, but I guess maybe they don't want to undercut Switch's reveal by saying it's multiplatform right away. (If it is, that is.)

 

[Jb]

Atlus US isn't saying yet whether the game will be localized for the west. That said I don't remember a SMT game being simultaneously announced for both markets, so this probably doesn't mean much.

 

[hurricanes]

Rose petals?

Odin?

Lightning confirmed.

Don't you dare...

 

[DrunkShogun]

If only this was coming out sooner. Won't be buying the switch until a few big games come. Hope it's a traditional smt game at the minimum but will be fine either way they go. Surprised Odin got so much spotlight.

 

[spiritfox]

Atlus US isn't saying yet whether the game will be localized for the west. That said I don't remember a SMT game being simultaneously announced for both markets, so this probably doesn't mean much.

The last Atlus developed game that didn't come out in the West is Persona 2 EP. I won't worry about it.

Unless you're in Europe.

I hope so.

Aye, just sounds like the standard phrases because the game is still at least a year off.

The last Atlus developed game that didn't come out in the West is Persona 2 EP. I won't worry about it.

Unless you're in Europe.

Luckily we're all region free now, except for the 3DS.

 

[Inuhanyou]

Gonna guess this is multiplatform between Switch and PS4, while 3DS gets the other SMT game they are working on.

I guess UE4 is just easier to handle and port between units than trying to utilize their P5 engine?

Still, kinda sad they made a whole engine just for one game in P5

 

[Thoraxes]

Basically: We're really busy working on Persona 5 and this thing is really far off that it's nowhere near being on our radar right now, but please show enthusiasm for it.

 

[Funyarinpa]

I didn't need two kidneys anyway. *sigh*

 

[Rutger]

The trailer taking inspiration from the best part of Nocturne, its title screen, is pretty cool.
Hopefully it ends there, I want something fresh. The presence of sunlight gives me hope, that isn't really very common in the mainline SMT games I've played.

 

[True Fire]

What do you think the 3DS project is? I'm thinking it's a Strange Journey tier game using the Etrian Odyssey engine, but it might also be a I+II remake?

 

[Joqu]

TBH the Kaneko Odin looked kind of silly and this one is actually cool.

¯\_(&#12484_/¯

Soul Hackers Kaneko Odin tho... It's not his fault they had been using the wrong one!

 

[exmachina64]

Whatever this is, I'm excited for it.

 

[Mediking]

Freaking teased this (sorta) in the Persona thread..... well..... I suspected this would happen at the Switch reveal and I was so right.

Day one on Switch of course.

Didn't you also tease the P5 delay before it happened?

 

[Capra]

Yes please.

 

[Taruranto]

Yay, full 3D. Hopefully it will be a worth successor to Nocturne.

 

[gngf123]

I'm thinking it's a Strange Journey tier game using the Etrian Odyssey engine,

Don't get my hopes up like that.

 

[Setsu00]

I was hoping we were done with SMT4's tokusatsu aesthetic, but at least Odin's new look works well alongside the established Kaneko compendium in 3D.

I do wonder what's up with the rose petals, though. The first thing that came to my mind was Lightning due to her Odin summon and I'm kinda sure that's not what they wanted to express with that.

 

[Guymelef]

Umm the web mark this as "HD project" and there is another "3DS project"
http://shin-megamitensei.jp/

And official trailer from Atlus doesn't mention platforms.

Maybe it's a timed exclusive? Whatever. I'm just happy that SMT is finally going back to (apparently) full 3D.

 

[SlaughterX]

Hmmm, well this is interesting. SMT 5 would probably make me buy a Switch.

 

[AcademicSaucer]

So can we say SMT is still a Nintendo exclusive now?

The HD project seems to be multiplatform .

Yah. Hoping there's some clarification in Famitsu next week or something. Already pre-ordered a Switch, but if this is gonna be on PS4, then I'd rather get it on that.

 

[Yo93]

Edit: can't validate

 

[RPGCrazied]

Great. Hope its a mainline game and no spin off. And this game isn't coming out in 2017. Looks super early.

 

[gngf123]

Welp, I have been told things from a source and he is usually right.
Take with a grain of salt:
-This proyect started as a PS4 game some years ago.
-Now is PS4/Switch.
-Nintendo and Atlus have been in talks of a timed exclusivity deal.
I really trust this guy so thats why I post this.

Receipts.

 

[Camwi]

That teaser was enough to make me cum. Good job, Nintendo.

 

[asariN7]

Im gonna guess its a 2018 release at best.

 

[Tacorona72]

Yo more SMT on 3DS? Not sure what it'll be, but sign me up baby!

 

[Yo93]

Receipts.

I dont usually post here so I dont understand this "receipts" expresion, could you explain?
Sorry.

Sounds good. The more the merrier. Just want to see more of the game.

I have dreamed this project so long. I hope it's.

Of course, if it's something a la Strange Journey I would be so happy too. But I expect the 3D game inherits the design philosophy from SJ.

 

[Setsu00]

If it is is a remake, I hope it's SMT if... on the EO engine.

 

[Crankshaft]

I've been waiting for a true sequel to Nocturne and not those SNES style 3DS games. I hope this is it.

 

[Setsu00]

Sorry.

They want to know who or what your source is and to prove it.

 

[Hylian7]

Standard scare they give with every game. It'll get localized, I'm not worried.
