Maybe they just didn't think that the SMT demons would fit the tone or aesthetic of the game.
Its a video game, simple minded adolescent bullshit is what they excel at.

Balrog (left) and Yomotsu Shikome (right) enemy Mirages. There was also a Troll mirage revealed before. It's kind of odd how they're including quite a few of these mythological (well, not so much in Balrog's case) monster mirages, but actual demon designs are only referenced by the stores.
Originally I thought that Balrog is the same as in Gaiden, then I realized Gaiden's Balrog is a gargoyle lol

This is one of the most Japanese things I've ever seen.

This game looks very SMT, I can't resist.
I loved the dungeon and battle trailer. I wish more of the trailers focused on that. Instead the majority of the trailers tend to shove as much Jpop and anime characters as they can into it, which I personally really don't mind, but I notice that it really tends to turn a lot of people off of the game.
Combat still looks fun.
I still like that you can hit the dungeon overworld 'shadow' enemy BUT not be forced to engage it in battle.
And thank god for that.

Are we watching the same trailer?
He moved when interacting with the device

There was transition effect when his sword disappeared.

Never had any doubts about this and was always shocked anyone who claims to like JRPGs ever did. Atlus doing what they do.
I've always been confident in the gameplay aspect of it since it was shown, but I'm still not convinced when it comes to the story or how much I'll care about the characters.

We're seeing the same dungeon we did back at E3. I guess they really don't want to reveal much (which I am also perfectly fine with).
I know this is a stale, sensitive and much discussed topic but my first thought on seeing that was "what will the English version look like?"
But it just fades out of his hands. He should have an animation where he shoves it up his ass like Sheik does with the harp in OOT.

I like Mamori waving to the camera.
I loved it
If it was Atlus localizing this, it would be a safe bet that the scene would be exactly the same. But does Nintendo have a history of censoring or modifying these things (I know about the FE: Awakening, XCX and Fatal Frame outfit changes)?
This game will very likely be rated M by the ESRB, so there's that.

This game looks so awesome. I like the look of the characters, it looks like it plays just like Persona, this should be good.
Hope it stays the same in the game she used to be an "gravure idol" which means she kinda makes a living by selling her sexualty. Like a lot of Bikini shoots for magazines. So they can't censor that by changing the game into something else. Its a game about all sides from the media/entertainment world. We have singers, movie actors, choreographers, tv show actors and photo models. It would be weird to cut that part since we get magazines like that too here in the west.
So we finally found out what that Mirage bar is. I guess we only have limited slots with which to customize Mirages. I wonder if that includes out-of-battle effects like that Enemy Scan that we saw in the Treehouse trailer.
I think Toma and Mamori are my favourite characters so far. Toma's a henshin hero, which is cool enough by itself. Mamori is a little kid with a giant battle axe singing grandma music. That's definitely the most unique character here.
Barry is gross.

It's not. Notice that when he attacks in the enemy in the overworld Toma is in the party, while the battle has Elenoire.
But Toma is part of the sub cast, so maybe that's represented in the dungeon exploration menu portraits? Then again, I didn't see Kiria at all in that battle and she's supposed to be in the sub cast too.

Well they were around lv11 in the overworld while in the battle, the level average was 30, so they were just two different parts put in together
Ah, well that's that. I wonder why they'd bother doing that. My guess is that they don't want to show off a later dungeon or later on in the game, but they did want to show off how battles work with a greater number of characters active at the same time?
I love how out of all the weapons Mamori uses, it's a giant axe that's bigger than her. I do hope that it sells decent/well in the long run, since Nintendo would want this to be a series; would also make them have their own JRPG series on their systems ala Persona (Obviously not counting the spinoffs).

Pretty sure it'll bomb everywhere; the hype just isn't there.

Yup, this releasing on an unpopular console at a time of year when Nintendo are probably going to be announcing their next console, the genre is already niche enough as it is, let alone the install base for the console = dead on arrival. Wouldn't be surprised if this gets digital only release in the West, after what happened with Fatal Frame V and Devil's Third barely getting a physical release...
Time for us to by a million copies each.

Forget the sales, this game is going to be one of the Wii UU hidden gems for sure. That battle theme is amazing. Hype and day one here.

Seems like I keep seeing more and more I like in this game. Hoping they end up vastly outweighing the things I don't.
I think the opposite, Atlus are going to want to push this in America at least and NoE will have a decent marketing campaign by their standards.

If NoE is pushing it, then it will have a better marketing campaign than any other Atlus game ever released here.
