"As the first installment of Atlus’ Persona franchise to appear on a Nintendo Console, Persona Q: Shadow of the Labyrinth is a bit of an oddball. Described as “first and foremost, for fans of the Persona series” by its producer, Katsura Hashino, this is a stripped-back traditional dungeon crawl featuring all your favourite characters from Personas 3 and 4.
Let’s set the scene. The members of SEES (P3) and the Investigation Team (P4) hear a bell tolling in the distance, and are then sucked into a mysterious alternate reality where they are all trapped in Yasogami High’s culture festival. A strange clock tower has sprung up outside the school, the other students seem oblivious to anything outside of the festival, and Zen and Rei – Persona Q’s two new characters – are found milling around with no idea why they are there."
Atlus’ Persona series has exploded in popularity. This means there are not only mainline installments, but also ports, updated releases, reimaginings and spin-offs. There are all interesting games that do cool things with elements from the series, but it is also a series where you probably shouldn’t go and begin with the very first game. Fortunately, it isn’t difficult to find a good starting point.
Frome what I remember, the PSP version of Persona 3 added the ability to command your teammates in battle? There was something different/better about battle for the PSP one. I remember noticing because I played 4, started 3 on PSP, then started over when i got the ps2 version.
I would def recommend playing either 3 or 4 before 5. the menus and the colors and fonts and everything in 5 was just SO MUCH to get used to. I felt like it was a comic book and an episode of JoJo at once. Amazing game, though lol
Persona Q2: New Shadow Labyrinth for 3DS sold 79,747 retail copies during its opening week in Japan, the latest Media Create sales figures reveal.
Also new last week, Kamen Rider: Climax Scramble for Switch opened at 14,465 sales, the retail version of Dead by Daylight for PlayStation 4 opened at 7,005 sales, Billion Road for Switch opened at 4,682 sales, and the PlayStation 4 version of Lapis x Labyrinth opened at 4,144 sales—the Switch version did not chart in the top 20.
On the hardware side, Switch sold 120,546 units, the PlayStation 4 family sold 20,410 units, and the 3DS family sold 10,435 units.
Pokemon about to cross a million just over 2 weeks which is a really good sign.
Switch moving units like crazy over there.
Well, company announced 3,000,000 copies old on November 22th. Now, I suppose it will have about 5,000,000 copies globally.
Switch got a nice Smash 5 bump. Next week's media create will probably see the Switch at over 200,000 again like when the Pokemon games dropped.
Nintendo has saved this generation of gaming from being pretty lackluster. Thank you, Nintendo.
