jason schreier of kotaku saying that P5S is not P5 switch, P5 the royal is PS4-exclusive, and doesn't know if P5 switch is even a thing at all

that's... pretty bad, not gonna sugar coat it. i don't like kotaku all that much, but schreier is incredibly well-connected, and one of the only insiders i'll pay any attention to when he starts making bigger claims like this.
Reading this post after steaming off, I have two alternate scenarios from this.

  1. Persona 5 S is just a spinoff game
  2. Persona 5 is the Switch port and Jason was just saying he's heard nothing about it.

Let's examine Point Number 2 because Jason has not confirmed what console P5S is for or what genre it even is beyond "I've heard it's another genre but am not 100% sure." He seems uncertain. I'd chalk this up to him not knowing what exactly Persona 5 S is, so therefore he's being skeptical of Persona 5 S being the Switch port until he hear's something decisive. I would say Jason's claim is a reality check over what we don't know, but nothing disconfirming. I'd wait and see over the subject, but my certainty is now downgraded to unsure.

Even if it's not announced this month, it can still be announced later. PolarPanda came out and said four Persona 5 "projects" are being worked on as we speak. So far we know Persona 5 R and S. It's safe to assume one of those is an Arena game. I'd say anything is possible if we got Final Fantasy 7 on Switch.

There was a problem fetching the tweet

So the dream is not dead until a long while from now. Though, even if it doesn't happen, I wont lose sleep because my backlog of games is massive and I'm currently slogging through Xenoblade Chronicles 2 as we speak.

You say "hi". Don't overthink it.

Think of her like a guy from your school and don't fret. Just make conversation. Come in with a reason for saying hey so you have a natural path for the conversation.

It's nothing shocking when you think about how ATLUS milked Persona 4. What did we get? Persona 4 Arena, Q, Golden, Arena Ultimax, and Dancing All Night.
What can you even do at that point? (Besides the probable Persona 5 Arena/Ultimax)

****ing Persona 5 Cooking Mama? Persona 5 Kart? Goddamn Persona 5 Pinball?

Point Number 1 has already been discussed to death. Joker in Smash + Best Buy leads us to believe in Switch port for Persona 5, vanilla or otherwise.

I'm not getting my hopes up again, but let's see what happens.

We still don't have Arena, we assume Royal is the remake, we already have Q2, and god knows what the Hell Persona 5 S is. I assume we'll have a good idea where we'll be heading after Persona 5 S is revealed.

don't forget that while he's uncertain on the details of S, he is "very confident [...] that P5S is something else entirely". when schreier is typically 'very confident' in something, that means he's as close to certain as can be without outright risking his reputation for the 0.01% chance he's mistaken.

he's careful not to eliminate the possibility of a port in the future, but with this and S 'introducing new phantom thieves that will change cognitions', i think it's a safe assumption that neither Royal nor S are switch-related.

Listen, Idon. Imma be real with you.

SMTV is never coming out. This is the era of Persona 5.

In all seriousness, though, I'm not surprised. We know about P5R and P5S (even if we don't know exactly what they are), and then we had those domains registered for P5M and P5B. We've got a lot more P5 projects to hear about.

So i've been translating some pages of the Wario Land manga as part of the rebooted Syrup thread and there's this one part of the plot where she believes Mario has her magic lamp so she mistakes something else in his overalls for it and starts rubbing it to get the genie out
i wonder why there was never a western release
This is both the best and worst thing I've seen in this thread.

Hey guys remember SMT V?
Me neither.

*four more Persona games*

So we're entering that era where fans complain about games they won't buy again.

Little do we all know Sakurai is playing the long con with us and the square rep is actually Geno and the last reveal.

Imagine if last direct:

*about to end then Sakurai says:

“Even if there is a small chance, I owe it to everyone not in this room right now to try.

Whatever it takes”

*cue Geno trailer.
Yfw?

:p

Hey Noipoi Noipoi I found some literature you could take some pointers from, if you need it.

I'd say if he's having to be cautious about it, then that means he's not 100%. If it's not 100%, it can be whatever.

A lot of my speculation is coming from the fact that I know next to nothing about Jason, but I can't say I'm completely convinced P5 Switch isn't happening yet. A lot of things have happened or are happening this month related to Joker and Persona 5 like Best Buy and Joker being released soon. I can't say this guy's word means much until I have someone about as reliable backing him. It's why I always group Tansut and Vergeben together when talking about Erdrick instead of just saying Tansut. It's better to hear that this isn't something only he's saying.

Yes, i am stalling.
If you keep procrastinating like this with every single life situation, you really won't go anywhere.

I think's time to show your courage, and finally get this load off your chest.

You got this

Estimated days until 3.0 & Joker: 12

We're over the half way point now, almost there.
