There’s never been a better time to be a fan of the Shin Megami Tensei: Persona series. Persona 4 Arena has just arrived on our shores this week, taking the venerable RPG franchise into 2D fighting game territory (and successfully so). This fall, one of the PS2′s most highly regarded games is coming to PS Vita with Persona 4 Golden. Even if you’re new to the series, as I am, there’s never been a better time to get into it.
Author Writes: The Nintendo Switch has become a fantastic JRPG machine, but its library needs to keep expanding in order for it to be the very best.
"The PlayStation Vita is one of my favorite pieces of hardware that has ever released. I've spent an insane amount of hours playing some of the best games that have released on it. Unfortunately, the handheld hasn't sold like hotcakes. The Vita currently only sits at 10-15 million lifetime units sold, and there are a handful of games that deserves a release on the juggernaut that is PS4 (that currently sits at 70 million units sold." -- PlayStation Enthusiast
Sony needs to stay OUT of the handheld market. They have tried multiple times, let it be. Don't divert first party studios for a failed hardware platform.
Yeah the news is actually about a the games he thinks will be appreciated on PS4. I think what will happen will be a list of JRPG's coming from PSvita to compete with the list of JRPG's coming from 3ds and 2ds to the SWITCH.
Otherwise with Japan being a heave rpg leaning market Sony will not gain Japan back from Nintendo.

I overall like my Vita better than the Switch , a Vita 2 or whatever they would call it needs cheap memory cards and more game support and it will do well. I would love for them to release it woth PS5 and make it an optional companion with remote play
those memory card urrhhh..... i have been looking all over for those 64 gb and couldnt find any unless i paid as much as I bought my used PSVITA... until i went to japan and bought one for peanuts.... I honestly think that indeed with a TV out from the start and cheap universal memory card, this would ve be a killer handheld.
Nice list. Though, I would also add Oreshika, Soul Sacrifice Delta, Disgaea 3/4, and Ragnarok Odyssey (not a great game but I wouldn't mind seeing a superior re-release or remake).
"Atlus, the publisher of the ever-growing Persona franchise has registered a bunch of domains related to the Persona series — here’s what I think they mean." -- PlayStation Enthusiast
Well, I only got partway into Persona Q and it's in my backlog along with Dancing All Night. Honestly, it sounds doubtful that every last one of those registered domains will become an actual game, but I'd love to get a spinoff of some sort for Persona 5. Heck, a Vita port would be nice too. Having new games set in the Persona universe can only be good news. I beat both Arena games so a new Persona fighter would be great.
More characters in persona q? Ok i guess, just let me change the MCs so they don't overlevel
My most hyped game for this year. Come on October!
Second 1
BOOOOO! Where's my Euro release date? Come on Atlus,give us something!
The reason I'm buying a PS Vita. :D
I hope Sony bundles the game up with the console. That'd be awesome.
this IS THE reason i got my vita, i cannot wait!!
