[Update: We've added hot new screenshots to our gallery, fresh from Atlus.]
We figured this might be what Atlus was teasing a few days ago, and it feels so good to be right. Atlus just sent out an email to the Atlus Faithful confirming that their Persona 4 fighting game collaboration with Arc System Works will be coming west. Wisely, they're dropping the convoluted Japanese title Persona 4: The Ultimate in Mayonaka Arena and just calling it Persona 4 Arena, which is much more to the point.
The console port will feature new story and online modes, which I was hoping for after having fun with BlazBlue's surprisingly enjoyable story mode. And luckily, we won't have to wait long: Atlus plans to release Persona 4 Arena as soon as this summer. Until then, you'll have to make due with preordering.

Nice to see Atlus is sticking with supporting 360 and PS3, too. Hopefully that's a trend that continues for their other console games.
and some other japanese rpg along with the other 2 that will be coming out later this year

It has never been on the Wii and never will. Don't you understand that the Wii isn't popular? It probably can't handle the graphics either. Also, you shouldn't hate Atlus because they don't put games on the Wii. Just get an HD console like everyone else dude.
Or you can use the strategy that work well for me and plenty of others. Buy it at the price you deem its worth. For me I'll buy it day one because this feels like pure fan service and want to support Atlus as much as I can. If you on the other think differently, then buy it at $40 or less when it drops.
