Now do I wait for the port to come out, or should I just pay $30 for the original? On the one hand, the getting the original I would be paying less money, and I would get to play it sooner. But on the other hand, the port will probably be the definite version.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH SUCH A HARD DECISION.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRGH SUCH A HARD DECISION.

I'd say the original of P3 FES was the definitive, and not P3P, but 4 may be different. There aren't any secondary story elements to remove from that game.
Regardless, P4 on the PS2 is pretty awesome. If you can find it for $30, I'd go for it, since it's going to be quite a while until we get this new one, anyway.

I still don't know why people like these games. Everyone I've asked refuses to tell me what makes them good, and if I can't one ounce of common courtesy from the fans, then I'm not going to waste my time reading about the games. I literally just learned that they're RPG's. Wow, is that the art style they use in-game? Looks too much like anime for my tastes. Although this is probably great news if you like Persona.
I KNEW IT!!! Persona fighting game! And Person 4 Vita (P4V) AND the anime AND Overclocked AND Devil Survivor 2....ATLUS I LOVE THEE!
A Persona fighting game?
I smell some guilty gears likeness here... Not a bad thing!
Persona 4 The golden (playhouse?) . They're probably gonna drop a hint about p5 in it.
Atlus, oh Atlus.
All good news this morning! :)

@BenelliM4 :
I love : The story, the characters, the social simulation, the "Pokemon for grown-ups" demon collection, the dungeon crawling, the bravura they have with certain themes (Homosexuality, being a sexually charged teenage pop idol, transgenders, to name a few from p 4), the art style, the bold graphic design surrounding the menus, the music, the depth (Still able to find new personas and weapons after 100+ hours in a rpg is always nice), and most importantly, how it all comes together.
Happy?

Oh, sofik, that 3DS Persona game won't be anything new at all - definitely not P5. I'll bet you that P5 ends up going to the Vita, though (as a port of the PS3/360 title).
@BenelliM4 : It's also one of the rare jrpgs out there that don't make up for lack of content with extraneous belts and impossible hair.
Okay Atlus, I loved Persona 3, and I'm glad you found a game that sold more than 6 copies for once, but you're milking this cow a little to hard now. A P1 remake, a P2 remake, two P3 remakes, a stand alone anime that sucked, Persona Presents: Catherine: A Game Made by the Persona Team Who Made the Persona Games Such as Persona and Persona Harder, and NOW you're putting out a P4 remake, a P4 anime, a fighter, and P5?!
Remember when Ubisoft learned not to release games from the same franchise every year?

Hey, why come Dale or Josh isn't writing this article? Holmes you lucky bastards, those two probably creamed their pants over this.
Anyways, I was quite amazed when this news came out of nowhere on Twitter yesterday. Persona 4 Portable was expected and at one point I thought it was unnecessary. Then I remembered "Oh, we probably won't get it until 2013 or the end of 2012 so fuck me". I'm definitely buying a Vita for it though, the 3DS means nothing in comparison now.
Now the fighting game (with a funny name, will probably be translated to Ultimate Midnight Arena) just came completely out of nowhere. I did not expect it at all, kind of mad that it's just Persona 4 though when the series has so much more to offer. Persona is just a sub series in the Shin Megami Tensei franchise with other series like Devil Summoner, Devil Survivor, Digital Devil Saga, and of course the usual line of Shin Megami Tensei games like Nocturne. Also this game exists in the continuuity (two months after P4) so I hope Atlus finds a way not to ruin the plot.
Also someone needs to make a story about Persona 5 being teased, that happened yesterday too. Persona 5 has been teased several times though, pretty positive it has been in development for awhile.

Yes! This just made my month!Persona 3 is my all time favorite JRPG. Having beat P3, P3 FES, and P3P I still plan on playing it again as the female MC as soon as I finish my 3rd playthrough of P5.
I hope the fighting game is going to be made with the same care and quality as Blazblue. Just thinking of the posibilities has me school girl giddy!

Now that I commute 2+ hours to work everyday I might have more room in my life for portables AND jrpgs
@Noir :
I thought I read somewhere that development was confirmed. Before we even knew what Catherine was all about actually. Anyway, seeing how successful Atlus has been recently, Persona 5 is a sure thing. We can rest easy. Actually, no, we can't! I need something from it! Just a color theme and a font will do! Come on, Atlus!

I'll admit that the P3 remakes are a bit much, but Persona 1 and 2 kind of deserved remakes. Persona 4: The Golden won't be out until 4 years after the original game though so I think it's alright. The fighting game is a bit much though, should have been a general Shin Megami Tensei fighting game.
Also Catherine don't count bitch.

I knew that a port of Persona 4 would eventually happen, though on the PSP, not the Vita. Granted, the Vita was just a twinkle in Sony's eye at the time I came to this conclusion but details.
The fighting game though? Came straight outta left field.
I'm kind of weary of Persona 3 and 4 at this point but I just gotta see out putting characters from both games in a fighting game plays out. I only wish that they'd include characters outside of those two games like Badou from Persona 2.
Or Raiho from Devil Summoner. It ain't a SMT/Persona game without a Jack Frost of some sort.

"Also coming next Spring, this time to Japanese arcades, is Persona 4 The Ultimate In Mayonaka Arena. This 2D fighter is the result of a unique team up between Atlus and BlazBlue developer Arc Systems Works. The game will feature characters from Persona 3 and 4, and will hit come to Xbox 360 and PS3 in Summer 2012."
...And Atlus just got me interested in the Persona series. I'm always up for another ASW fightan game.

YES! I saw this news last night and was super excited. Also I'm super excited for a Vita now. I was pumped for it before but now it is an instant buy :D
Atlus you make me a happy person! So happy this company exist!!

Great news! Another awesome title to make me get a Vita!! I am really liking what Sony is doing with this thing. They are treating their audience to some seriously wonderful stuff unlike Nintendo has with the 3DS to date. I'll definitely get one of those too, but not until things like Kid Icarus and Super Mario 3DS come out.
I still fully expect a Persona 5 announcement right around the time of TGS.

has it been confirmed if the ps vita will have the pause game function from the psp go? It's one of the reason i like playing persona 3 on it was because i didn't have to worry about being near a save point to quit the game if needed. Also the 3ds should have the feature to
Can't fucking wait! And Sofik, the 3DS will only sell Nintendo games for the first year. Why is it so hard to see that it only appeals to the Nintendo hardcores right now. Not everyone can get excited over mario and co. I was not even a fan as a child and I grew up in the 80's. Capcom's stuff defined my 8 bit experience.
I don’t want to over exaggerate, but this is, by far, the greatest thing that mankind has ever achieved.
The Great Wall of China?
The Renaissance?
The moon landing?
FUCK THAT, persona fighting game, because why the fuck not? Oh god, I need to lie down, I’m starting to foam at the mouth, and.....other places.

I loved that I could be a girl in P3P. I hope that they add that in 4. I never care about relationships in the games but love choosing to be a girl in them.
@Karavision,
considering that in 2012 aside from Sony titles only few multiplatform games will be released on PS Vita i can say exactly the same about sony's handheld.

@Sofik true, but we both know that while Nintendo games always sell well, they are always appeal more towards Nintendo fans and children by design. The Sony titles have a wider appeal amoung core gamers. There is nothing wrong with that but that is how it is . Nintendo games are unlike anything else that will ever be released on the system. Sony games are really just third party games owned by sony. There is nothing unique about them. So no, a year of Nintendo first party releases are not the same as a year of first party sony releases. Good or bad is up to the beholder.
Sadly, I don't think Persona 4 would work with a female protagonist. Not many love interests, for one, and more importantly, it doesn't work plotwise if you know Japanese mythology (which the game's true ending draws HEAVILY from). Going through that as a girl kinda doesn't work, unfortunately.
The fighting game interests me, and I'll definitely play it, but I also wish they could've incorporated more than just P3 and P4 characters. A Chie vs. Lisa fight would be awesome, as well as say... Eikichi vs. Kanji, or Tatsuya vs. the P4 protagonist, Ulala vs. Akihiko, Junpei vs. Nanjo, Eriko (Ellen) vs. Mitsuru, Maya vs. Yukiko, or Raidou vs. Naoto. There's just so much to draw from that limiting it to P4 kinda doesn't do it justice.

I love Mitsuru. She would be my main if I did not always main grapplers. I have no idea who they could make a grappler.
I have never ever played a Persona game, nor have I even watched a video on what the game is about.
Buying a Vita though :P

I played the hell out of Persona 3 Portable, it was an amazing title, and if you have a PSP I highly recommend it. I was going to get a Vita anyways, but now that there will be a persona 4 portable, I'm even more excited, way to go Sony for getting franchises people actually care about for the Vita. It seems like it's filling that niche game title quite well along with little king story, this, sound shapes, gravity rush, etc, etc, and the games are cheap to make too??? The Vita will be great.
@sofik
I cant see anyone not wanting the vita unless they are sony haters, mariotards or have a personal vendetta against their own eyes.
See how easy that was?

Boo to the fact that the developers want to go back to the old city maps that you had to run around on all of the time. I liked the quicker P3P city maps. Fuck that needless slow travel.
