Wonder what Atlus USA's reaction was to learning those game titles though, no chance they stay like that for the localisation.

Anyone who hasn't beaten P3 should stay away from the thread for the dancing games or risk being spoiled to hell and back.

Thanks for the heads up
I think it will probably be the same.
Also we are all expecting a bundle right? These better not be two fully priced $60 games on PS4.

If they don't keep the exact names, I hope they at least keep the same title structure (Persona X: Dancing ________ Night). I like that it makes it seem like a coherent, relevant trilogy when it's just a bunch of dumb fun spinoffs.
If there is a bundle, I bet it'll be $120 with DLC on top.
That is to say, I'm not expecting any real breaks cost wise. These two will be expensive.

I'm expecting there to be some sort of bundle but I expect it to be a special edition or something. I'm fully prepared for them to each be full priced games, though I'm more than happy to be totally wrong.

Heh - great minds think alike - I made that shit joke myself on Twitter earlier.
Proof: https://mobile.twitter.com/nonarylame/status/892727638846033921
(And yes, that better be the OT title)
If Atlus is OK keeping the title Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner - Soul Hackers, I think they'll be just fine with the dancing names.
Maybe P3: Dancing Beneath the Moon and P5: Dancing Beneath the Stars? Those might be a little long though

On the P5 front: Finally at last boss.
Man, I actually ran out of SP on the fight before this. Low on items too, hopefully i can clear this with some to spare.
Blew most of the rest of my money trying to fuse some higher level stuff, hopefully i have enough umph to clear the boss. At just over 102 hours, it's been a long road, but i'm looking forward to completing my first persona game.
Despite, you know, owning P2, p3FES, p4g and p5.

Y'all are slaying me over here and I don't even like the dancing games
The UI has been given a complete overhaul in the PSP version, which solves one of the biggest issues with the original game. The gameplay was rebalanced a bit too. However, if you're allergic to 1996 era RPG gameplay, then it might not hold up that well? Personally, I think it holds up pretty well compared to some other PS1 era RPGs, but it's still a little bit clunky.
It's completely playable, but honestly has aged worse than a lot of dungeon crawlers released even before it did. It somehow feels even older than it is.

I am so hype for p3 dancing moon night if only just to look at the character models in non ps2 era visuals lmao

So hey PersonaGaf my account finally got verified! Nice to meet you all.
Really interested to see how they handle the dancing games as I quite enjoyed P4D.

Hey, welcome Star Orpheus!
What are some tracks you guys are hoping to hear remixed from either Dancing game?
As far as P3D goes, I'd like to hear some more P3P songs such as Time, Way of Life -Deep inside my mind remix-, and Soul Drive. I think this one is an obvious choice, but I also hope we get the P3 FES opening song.
As far as P5 goes, I think I'd like to hear some sort of remix for The Days When My Mother Was There or Layer Cake.

I found it aged pretty well but coming off P4G it was rough! I gave up after a couple hours. I've put it on hold for now
indefinitely
I can't get enough Persona dancing games. I double dipped on P4D because I couldn't wait for the translation xD.
Really hope it includes music from P3P so songs like Danger Zone and Wiping All Out can be included. For P5 I think Rivers in the Desert is the easy choice but I'd love to hear that remixed.

Besides the obvious like Rivers in the Desert I really looking forward to what they can do with Changing Seasons.
klabautermann

Good choices! I'd love to see what comes of Deep Breath, Deep Breath as well. Love the version on the Persona 3 Reincarnation album.
Changing Seasons is a really good pick I didn't even think about. Thinking about it, I would imagine with the hip hop vibe of P3, it's prime for remixing. I loved the P4D tracks, but I found some worked a lot better than others.
Also I hate myself for thinking P2D could ever be a thing, but I can't help myself for wishing to see Lisa in her idol outfit performing Joker in this engine haha.

Very partial to this one. It's much easier to get than the Memento Mori reference.

Hey Star Orpheus.
For P3D I'd love for pretty much all the songs added in P3P to get remixes since all those songs are fantastic. Outside of Portable I'd also want Iwatodai Dorm, Paulownia Mall, When the Moon's Reaching Out Stars and A Deep Mentality.
P5D I'd probably pick Layer Cake, Price, Life Goes On, the final boss theme and then the Memento's theme.

So how does one make stories of dancing in these two games?
Mind you that Persona 4 had it easy with the navigator being an idol, but I'm not entirely sure how you go along with doing it for 3 & 5. At least with how 5 ended, you could easily say something in terms of
or something like that.
The thing I'm struggling on though is what would be done for Persona 3 with the whole "
" issue. Not to say it is impossible, but it will be fun to see how they work around that.

Someone on tumblr pointed out that there's a pattern that looks like circuitry on the 3 on the website. That and the weird visual effect in the trailer when protag puts on his headphones. Virtual reality could be a convenient excuse for the characters looking younger plus
getting protag and Shinjiro in the game.

Exactly, P5D is a chance for them to fix that song so I have to hope it'll happen.
Easy, you don't even bother. I'm really hoping that they're just focusing on making a good rhythm game this time around and avoiding including any story, thankfully the trailers for both games give the impression that they're doing that.
No time to sleep when you're dancing all night.
I'm like 95% sure it's "How long has it been, I hope I'm not dreaming".
What if they don't have a story?
klabautermann

I would be more with okay with that. Def expressed interest in that before in this thread. The story in P4D was fun and I enjoyed the ride, but it didn't make or break the game for me.
While it wasn't a super well crafted rhythm game, hearing my favorite tracks remixed, seeing all my favorite characters dancing in HD, messing with the outfits, and trying to perfect songs on the hardest difficulty was the best part of it for me.
I would be shocked if it didn't have a story though.
Oh yeah, now that you say that, that's what I hear. Engrish strikes again.
I mean, anything's possible, but they likely will have a story element in both games.

That's what I was thinking too. And throw in an amazing Collector's Edition... DAY ONE, Dantis!

It'd be odd for them to be going out of their way to make them seem like individual games at the moment in that case though. Especially since that would only apply for physical Vita copies, assuming they didn't want to include a download code for the other half.

I'm not really interested in P3D, but if they come up with a neat CE bundle I'd grab it. Dancing Aigis stands to be entertaining anyway.
I would argue putting out two full titles both weighing in at like 5GB each on the same day is just as crazy.
CrimsonFist

Could follow the Project Diva Future Tone model, although that wouldn't work as well for retail.
TheMrPliskin

I won't argue against that. No matter which way they end up putting them out it's going to end up being a little crazy, I'm just preparing myself for the worst while also hoping that I'm wrong.
ShadowSoldier89

me either. P3D looked further along in the initial trailers.
They're both in the same quarter. Splitting their releases but having them within a matter of weeks of each other would be even more insane.
