I really felt stupid selling my 3DS when Soul Hackers was announced but now I feel especially dumb. I don't know why I expected this to be on consoles. Any hope this could be a multiplatform release?

 

[Soma]

Great news. I might have to get a 3DS now.

I hope we get more awesome Kaneko designs like this (NSFW)

 

[t26]

so what will be the US title? They removed the 3 from Nocturne

 

[OfWhiteSkinOnRedLeather]

Terrible news, but whatever. One less game for me to buy.

 

[XiaNaphryz]

so what will be the US title? They removed the 3 from Nocturne

SMT 3: Nocturne 2 - Zio Boogaloo 3D

 

[TurnipFritters]

Nah, the last thing he did was this:

He did that in 2000 though? Like, that image is literally on the case of the US release of Eternal Punishment.

 

[djplaeskool]

That's 6 must-have imports.
2 more and I'm importing a 3DS.

PSP port had new art.

SMT: Tokyo Beatdown

 

[gashikunFLCL]

Is that really the only one out so far? There's been a bunch announced, I thought at least a couple of them were out already. >_>

There was UnchainBlades ReXX with is getting a sequel UnchainBlades Exiv (or maybe Xiv).

Man, you're right. They were so lazy they didn't even have an original cover!

SMT: It Is A Mystery

 

[Femmeworth]

SMT: It Is A Mystery

The ghost better be part of the logo.

 

[duckroll]

SMT: It Is A Mystery

You should rename it SMT: Fore, and have a character swinging a golf club at a demon on the cover.

SMT: It Is A Mystery

I expect Kotaku or some other site posting a headline soon: Atlus US rep confirms SMT4 coming to US, to be titled It Is A Mystery.

 

[The Incarnation]

I'm guessing the concern is more if Euroland gets a timely localization or not rather than whether it will get one at all.

True enough. Considering how long it took or Catherine to come out I'm expecting at least 8 months afterwards.

 

[Maedhros]

That's a nice announcement to the already great japanese line-up of the 3DS. Will Vita have Persona series and 3DS SMT series? Iwouldbeokaywiththat.png

 

[cj_iwakura]

So uh, has anyone realized that...

(Major SMT series spoilers)

Spoiler

This could be it? Lucifer's war against Yahweh?

Bastard's been planning long enough!

 

[jokkir]

Holy shit is all I have to say

 

[XiaNaphryz]

True enough. Considering how long it took or Catherine to come out I'm expecting at least 8 months afterwards.

Any guesses on who would handle the EU localization? Ubisoft did Nocturne right?

Oh missed that one. Did anyone from J-GAF play those?

 

[C-Jo]

SMT 4: Yahweh or the Highway

 

[RPG_Fanatic]

This new pleases me. Can't wait to see how it looks.

 

[The Return of]

SMT 4: Yahweh or the Highway

this should be the OT whenever it comes out!

 

[Barakov]

About damn time. I think I might pull the trigger on importing that Japanese 3DS.

 

[Foffy]

Finally, the war of the ports from Atlus is temporary over. New game. <3

Catherine wasn't THAT long ago.

 

[squall23]

And it's not like he has any other jobs ;_;

He could be designing the next SRW OG mech........

 

[Foffy]

Catherine wasn't THAT long ago.

Well, I mean with SMT games. Catherine sorta doesn't count in that sense, right?

 

[cj_iwakura]

Well, I mean with SMT games. Catherine sorta doesn't count in that sense, right?

Sorta being the operative word.

 

[SentientStone]

Pass... wake me up when there's a console port. :/

 

[duckroll]

Devil Survivor 2 wasn't that long ago either.

 

[Femmeworth]

SRW needs better character designers, not mecha.

 

[Eirikr]

I am so ready to make a dozen more ultimate Cu Chulainns.

 

[Foffy]

Devil Survivor 2 wasn't that long ago either.

True, but we've had nearly every Persona game ported in the span of three years, and then there's Devil Survivor Overclocked, Soul Hackers, and the original SMT for iOS all within that same timeframe. There have been more ports than new titles lately is all, and I prefer brand new games. I thought it was overkill was all.

 

[cj_iwakura]

Did SJ even have any genuinely 'new' demon designs aside from the major players? Most of what I thought was new came from Soul Hackers.

*throws a hammer*

Nah, the last thing he did was this:

wish Atlus USA would announce Persona 2: EP PSP for release already

 

[XiaNaphryz]

Devil Survivor 2 wasn't that long ago either.

Speaking of, has that one gotten a Europe release date yet?

 

[duckroll]

Yes I think it did. A small number though.

 

[SteeloDMZ]

We should wake you up when your ban ends.

 

[The Incarnation]

Deep Silver maybe.. They did Catherine.

 

[SentientStone]

We should wake you up when your ban ends.

Sorry if I offended anyone, I am not anti-Nintendo or anything. ;p
In fact, I will get a Wii-U for sure, but I have never been a handheld gamer and would likely miss out on this unless there is a console port in the future. :/

 

[The Incarnation]

What? No.

Just realized that Strange Journey didn't get officially released over here. Yet you can find it easily on Amazon UK, along with most of the other games.

NDS being region free I don't really pay much attention.

 

[Teknoman]

Beyond the Labyrinth?

Forgot about that...but is it out yet?

Screw that, we're fighting it! >_>

Just give it some macca and be done with

A couple of the bosses and DemoniHo.

 

[gashikunFLCL]

For a long time in Japan, January 19, 2012, don't worry everyone forgot about this game. T__T

Edit: Beyond the Labyrinth (Konami, 01/19): 14,176 FW.

I'm not sure what games you considered (only the main line...ish ones?). But if you think about the broader series, of the ones released in English, we didn't get Strange Journey, Raidou 2, Persona 2:EP (PSX) and Persona 1 (PSX).

 

[The Incarnation]

Ghostlight announced last month that Devil Survivor Overclocked and Devil Survivor 2 coming to Europe. When I don't know.
