I loved P4G (totally worth the cost of a Vita) and I enjoyed the original P4 anime. I wouldn't mind some more Marie tsundere action in this along with an animated version of their concert at the store (I may be the only person in history who enjoyed that song). And of all series (anime, videogames, movies, etc), I don't mind Persona being milked at all. It is just that amazing and everyone must experience it in some way, shape or form.

Ah right. I do watch the live stream. I haven't played P4G yet, but because of this one particular girl, I want to watch the anime. I was expecting the FeMC's route in P3P will get an adaptation, but... *sigh* Some other time.

That seems like a waste of budget they could have spent better.
Somewhat liked the first P4 anime, but retelling everything because of a single new character?
Steel Ball Run anime when?

They'll probably put a teaser to Persona 5 in it (I don't think they remade it for few differences and add Marie), something like how they added Vincent from Catherine in Persona 3 Portable.

It's more than one new character. It has new social links and sheet.

Only problem with a persona 4 anime is an extreme lack of....

Well, that's a surprise. I'll watch it but I don't really get why there needs to be a reboot. If it's going to include original story + all the Golden events then it would be even more clustered than it all ready is. P4 is great as a game because of the flow, but lacking as an anime. A-1 is taking over? Hmm, I hope they can handle it, though I'm not expecting too much.

Yes, because the worst part in Persona franchise has NOT been milked enough yet. Let's rehash it again~

Unless they go for the Adachi ending, there is basically no change to the story.

Making something that is guaranteed to sell is never a waste of budget, since you'd easily make back what you spent and more.

It's not like Persona 2 was all that fantastic, either.

As a matter of fact, I really doubt an anime of P2 would be profitable.

Even Devil Survivor 2 flopped and that was a lot more relevant and closer to what otaku are interested in.

Persona 1/2 anime would lose money.

Persona 4 is a ps2 game with anime cutscenes.

Persona 4 Golden is a PS Vita rerelease of Persona 4 with extra scenes, characters, and social links.

Persona 4: The Animation is a mediocre anime adaptation of Persona 4.

Persona 4 Arena is Marvel vs Capcom 3 with Persona characters.

Nothing is worse than P4.
Even fracking Raidou Kuzunoha games were better than P4.

P1 at least had enough mindfuck to balance out the more meh parts of the narrative.

Mildly disappointed that at the same time they announced this, they announced more stuff essentially rinsing Persona 3 & 4, especially the latter, and have seen/heard next to nothing about Persona 5. I do like both games, but by the time the Persona 3 movies and all the random spin-off games involving both come out, I'll be pretty bored of them. I'm hoping in terms of Persona 5 marketing and promotion, they're saving the best for later.

Really, Persona 4 can't be that bad otherwise it wouldn't have sold and been received like it has, and it's not like it's sold well due to pure "otaku pandering" or whatever. Maybe you're just sick of the sight of it being milked which is understandable?

Admittedly I'm one of those filthy casuals that's never played any other SMT games so I don't know how Persona 4 compares to them in any way. I was quite interested in SMTIV on the 3DS but it hasn't got a European release yet. Dammit.

Wait...why? I thought the first series did it's job well enough to get people into Persona 4.

So this is a full on reboot? That didn't take long, lol. I hope A-1 can match the QUALITY of the last studio.

The only extra things I can remember is the School festival, Ski trip, and Motorscooter trip. I wonder if adding Marie really warrants another 25 episode series.

What!? I'm happy, but if I remember correctly the only real difference was Marie. So I don't see a real reason to do this, but I don't even care. This is basically an insta 10 for me. And I'm going to enjoy the hell out of it.

Do it. I bought the Vita at release for full price and haven't regretted the purchase especially due to Persona 4 Golden. I already played P4 before but the extras (there are a ton) and it being portable was a huge plus. I could play it anywhere and lying in bed. Plus you can play P3P too (Mitsuru ftgdw). And honestly the Vita has a lot of other great games too. And you can get a used original version Vita for like $100. It's a good deal. Don't listen to what these other clowns are saying.

Very convincing. Let's see if I can actually find a reasonably priced one.
But imagine if they actually ported p4g to ps3. Then there would be p4g plus the anticipated p5, which would be awesome. And I've already gotten a maid outfit for Mitsuru. :)

Don't expect any significant info until Tokyo Game Show. Its the Year of Persona and Atlus wouldn't want Persona 5 to overshadow the other Persona releases they have in store this year... they'll let them all come out and then bombard us with Persona 5 info.

Persona 4 Golden also features a new difficulty mode, new scenes, new personas, better game mechanics, rebalanced gameplay, new arcanas, new social links.

It is completely worth it, and you definitely don't know what you're talking about.

(Plus the vita has other really good games, so once again all what you're saying is complete bullshit.)

If you're the type of person to buy a Vita for Persona 4 in the first place, then there should be tons of other Vita games that would interest you. Its the go to system for JRPGs now.

I'm up to like 20 Vita games myself, and a bunch more releasing later this year I plan to buy...

Monster Monpiece
Neptunia PP
Neptunia Rebirth
Tales of Hearts
Disgaea 4 Vita
Danganronpa 2
Akibas Trip
One Piece Unlimited World Red
Blazblue Chrono Phantasm
