Hello? Can you hear me? ...Perhaps if I shout? AAAAAAAAAH!
I think Persona 4 Golden sold close to a million, it was around 700k like a year or two ago. There was also a year-old report saying the Persona mainline franchise has sold 6 million.

I just hope Persona 5 doesn't tank as badly as TMS did. If P5 tanks, then I hope it's doesn't make SegAtlus say "bye-bye SMTIV Final on the West". :ohdear:

It's safe to consider that an impossibility. For one, P5 is an established, successful IP launching on a system that people own.

p5 didn't immediately collapse under the weight of its own hype the moment they showed gameplay footage, unlike tms.

Persona 5 will do extremely well (relative to being an Atlus RPG) unless there's some kind of heinous, yet-to-be-announced feature that will make everyone hate it, and even then it'd have to be like, "If you get a game over you have to wait three hours to reload unless you pay $1.00" freemium type bullshit.

persona 5 will sell well and Final will be localized, and the sales of TMS won't have much if any bearing on that since nintendo is localizing TMS but Atlus would do Final

TMS isn't even considered a MegaTen (or FE, for that matter) game. They've called it a new IP ever since the full reveal.

See, I did not know / remember that. Nevermind then! Here's hoping Persona 5 does well and that I don't grow to despise its cast like I did with the Scooby Gang, Chapter Inaba Investigation Team over time! :buddy:

Yes, that's the most likely thing (along with a Slim-style redesign). The "PS4K will have double the GPU power" rumours make zero sense.

Either way, though, Sony is rumoured to be planning a new PS4 SKU so it's definitely going nowhere.

The first episode of the new Persona 4 anime is up on crunchyroll. Edit: It's called Jojo's Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable.

In honor of this, let's rename all the Personas so they sound like Stands:

Izanagi becomes Fortunate Son.
Magatsu Izanagi becomes Wayward Son.
Jiraya beomes Funky Town.
Tomoe becomes Kung-Fu Fighting.
Konohana Sakuya becomes We Didn't Start the Fire.
Take-Mikazuch becomes Black Emperor.
Kintoki-Douji becomes 99 Red Balloons.
Himiko becomes The Who.
Sukuna-Hikona becomes Mister Robotto.

It is bad when I'm at the point where I can't even stand P4's silent protagonist. Kanji is still alright because as the rest of the cast has been concentrated into single defining character traits, Kanji has become a sort of straight man in comparison. Ironically enough.

What are the gameplay differences between DS Overclocked and Record Breaker? I know 2/RB added an S. Link/Support system that you have to mess with to avoid character plot deaths, but I think I also heard that they tweaked how you crack and equip skills a little bit?

The S-Link system allows you to do shared cracks with the protagonist so you're not obligated to set a crack and then kill it with the same character. Skill equip requirements have been way loosened so it is far easier to equip things.
