Why did Atlus have to abandon the localization of EP.. especially when said PSP remake includes a new additional scenario that supposedly delves into the connection between Demons and Shadows which intrigues me.

 

In retrospect, I always thought of it as a reflection of how Persona has simply changed in its design to tighten its connection to Jungian psychology and distance itself from SMT to become its own thing. But yeah.. even if Persona 2's story is still whack, I enjoy the characters and would have liked to play Eternal Punishment (the good version). Oh well.

 

I don't think they've given any concrete reason as to why they abandoned the localisation. The most we've gotten on it is this vague post from an employee of Atlus USA at the time.

 

It's certainly odd given the fact that they localised IS but them's the breaks.

So how bad is the only original translation of Eternal Punishment?

Well not as bad as its previous incarnations but it lacks the improvements to the overall mechanics and an extra story scenario focusing on the main character of Innocent Sin -- It explains a lot of important details, like why Philemon and Nyarl aren't around anymore by the time of Persona 3, supposedly the connection between Demons and Shadows, what happened Tatsuya(the protagonist) before Eternal Punishment and everything. 

 

In retrospect, I'd settle for not playing EP at all if the PSP version is out of reach.. maybe there'll be an emulator for it some day. I'll be fine with Innocent Sin and Persona 1 until 5 arrives. Plus, even if I wanted, I couldn't play Eternal Punishment (PSONE) since it's only available on the US store not the European one.

Just read an article questioning why Atlus had no new P5 footage to show off @ e3. According to the US PR manager they 1) didn't want to spoil anything  :huh: & 2) didn't have anything ready  :blink:

 

I know that they are waiting for the TGS to show off P5 more as Japan is their primary market, not America or Europe. So I guess P5's absence from e3 is not that surprising.  

 

So anyone want to take a guess @ the release date for us unfortunate EU gamer's? 

 

Anyone thinking of Importing P5 form the US (If it's not region locked) or are you guys gonna bite the bullet & wait the few months/years?   :lol:

Of course they didn't have anything ready. Atlus Japan hasn't released anything new yet to show, thus the localization team can't really do much either and it's in Japan where it mostly counts above all else. Atlus make new announcements through their own channels.

I'm gonna do what I did with Ultimax. Make a foreign account to download it immediately off PSN. I'll get a physical copy some other time.

A new PV will hit in a few days with the release of the P5 bluray disc that comes with P4D anyway.

What the long nose Astus said. Under different circumstances I could see myself waiting a month or two, but having certain members here posting stuff like "OMG I just went scuba diving with Ryuji!" will make me impatient, so yeah not gonna wait.

I wonder if Persona 5 will allow you to buy Shonen Chump so you can catch up on the latest issues of Featherman. Maybe even Shoji Beat. Manga's a better way of raising your stats for a delinquent like the latest protagonist instead of books.

I don't know if it was the workings of NichM, Yu Namba and the rest of Atlus USA, but there was an obscure Twilight reference in Persona 4 Golden when reading one of those 'romance novels' that Narukami can buy in the store to raise his stats. It's the small details like that which are fun.

The upcoming video will showcase a new party member -- If anyone is determined not to have the party spoiled for them then I'd suggest to tread carefully here.

Also, if someone is interested in seeing the Dancing Game -- Here's a playthrough going on right now.

 

There sure are a lot of new characters in it as opposed to the fighting games.

Personally, I love the lounge music playing right now in that scene. Excellent.

I liked the part where Konohana Sakuya pulled out a saxophone.

Yosuke and Teddie - The Double Dork Dance-Off? :P

They've got really nice background effects outside of the normal venue, reminiscent of the ones Atlus posted way back on their channel.

I've been away. Did they play some Hibino or Yamaoka remix tracks?

There was one remix, but don't recall which one - they just finished Pursuing my old Self, and the next one's a remix. The visuals, especially the interface are as colorful as the original game. Getting DDR flashbacks from 12 years ago. I'm glad they chose Quality over Quantity for the crowds - Can't say I miss Rock Band's Generic Fan, Cloned 100 times >_<

In terms of classical dance simulators, looks pretty fun :)

Dominatrix Trumpet, can't unsee... >_>

Edit: Hamayama's scaring me

Hmm, female? The hand looks rather feminine, to my taste. Though could easily be male.

Oh God...

But the thought of Adachi going "You all suck! Lemme show you how it's done!" is amusing.
