did the other atlus games get teased first without the platforms being revealed?

Possible ‘Persona 5 R’ Announcement Imminent, Official Domain Updated

While I do agree that people are overreacting, I'm not sure I agree about the content until proven wrong.
Persona 3, Golden, and Catherine have all gotten meaty revisions to the original game. It's expected that Persona 5 will do the same.
There is literally a greater chance of that happening than you realise
I could see myself picking it up on Switch. I believe the artstyle would translate well on the small screen.

I don't think so but they were also not properly announced in a relatively minor event but during big concerts.
Now that I think about it, they could easily add an epilogue and dialogue options during the last part of the interrogation yeah.
Hype! lol
I'm going to be fast asleep when the announcement actually happens, but i'm hoping for something good. I preemptively stopped my playthrough of Persona 5 (which I picked up for like $23 AUD) earlier this year because I had a hunch that an updated version would be coming soon, and I would gladly start again on the Switch.
As someone who has done some big info drop/leak stuff (DMC5 leak thread) in the past, I'd advice against doing this. It's not worth the hassle and if by any chance you do get anything wrong, people will just focus on that and try invalidate you while ignoring the stuff that you got right or writing those off as guesses and predictions and such.
I know the feeling of wanting to share stuff with people (especially things you are excited about) but in the end, it's not worth it imo. Especially not this close to a possible announcement.
well it was shown at the switch reveal, so switch was guaranteed. what we didn't know was if it's switch-only or coming to another platform as well.
At one point there'll likely be an extended version like that for Persona 5, however whether P5R is that version remains to be seen. It could also be the P5 equivalent of P3 FES, which only made relatively modest changes to the main game. (Well, it also added The Answer, but who really cares about that).
If it's only a slight update, it might also explain why Atlus doesn't plan a PS4 release (if it's indeed exclusive).
OP
OP
Mystic once again chimed in and said that P5R is a Switch exclusive (though I have seen on Twitter that in the meantime he has clarified that it's not necessarily Switch exclusive).
Then another insider said that P5R is real but they didn't want to specify what it is and on what platforms it will release.
It's super embarrassing and I feel kinda sad for people that have to entertain theirself with things like that.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that added more content than the portable version did. Sure it could have been handled better, I never did finish it, but it was like 20 to 30 hours of additional content which is really huge.
I think it'll be a substantial upgrade but maybe not the only "new" Persona 5 game.
Maybe the PS4 will get a direct sequel, in the style of Eternal Punishment, while the Switch gets an enhanced port with a female protagonist, extra Confidants and a new dungeon or two in a sort of P3P or P4G style upgrade.
That'd be cool.
Never seen much appreciation for it anywhere. It's a sub-par dungeon crawler that got rid of most what made P3 interesting in the first place. It's like adding more floors to Mementos, which is probably the part of P5 people disliked the most.
I guess they're just satisfied with keeping their audience on one system.
Shin Megami Tensei for Nintendo
Persona for Sony
And every now and then they try to branch out, like Catherine, Tokyo MIrage (where's my Switch port :(), and the Persona spinoff games.
OP

Well I didn't play P5 yet so not gonna talk about Mementos but The Answer was very enjoyable.
That Mystic kid seems too wishy-washy for me. He recently said he definitely knows one specific thing from the reveal will cause controversy, very, very strongly hinting at a Switch exclusive, but also says it might not be the case. After saying he indeed knows what the reveal is. Seems like someone covering all the bases so he could always say he's got his info right.
FES added an entire 30 hour epilogue with new story content. Just because you think people don't care(they do BTW.) doesn't mean it doesn't count.
It also still added the new events with Elizabeth, a new Social Link, new Persona's, new social events, and one major optional event compared to the vanilla release.
Virtually all of atlus games are exclusive to one companies line of hardware, and they do updated rereleases on different hardware all the time. What you're describing as playing with people's trust (releasing updated remakes of games on different hardware) has been the direction the company has taken for at least, what, a decade? Maybe earlier if p3p wasn't even the first example.
Well apparently not according to the rumors of P5R coming to Switch. Personally I don't doubt that it's coming to Switch but I don't understand why it has to be an exclusive (IF we assume the rumors are correct)? Make it a multiplatform title and avoid all the drama and meltdowns.
I mean, his basic leak still stands unmodified, namely that Persona 5 is coming to Switch. He didn't backpedal from that at all, so I don't think it's reasonable to go around calling him a flip-flopper. He hasn't budged from his original points, and him not being sure whether it's exclusive or not doesn't detract from that.
Mystic: if you needed any more convincing about why sharing your info is not a good idea right now...
Does the guy have a good track record when it comes to leaks? I want him to be right, but I've been hyped up one to many times at this point.
Well, that's the thing. He strongly implied he knows for sure it's an exclusive, talking about games which get updated and ported to new consoles leaving out the original console. But then he says it might not be the case. He contradicts himself several times in the past week already.
I don't get it. Isn't him sharing his info right now and proven correct later a good thing? Especially if he indeed has correct info.
so every company can treat switch owners like shit (see: EA, Capcom) but Atlus is "playing with people's trust" if they put an exclusive on that thing?
Interesting.
Unfortunately basically anyone could guess it's a Switch exclusive, it's not exactly a nuclear-level take. Not much credit to gain
One really annoying thing about Atlus is how they spread all the Persona games and spin offs across multiple platforms.
P4G on the Vita, P4A and P4U on the PS3 and PQ on the 3DS,the fuck are people invested in your franchise supposed to keep up? should the spend another 300$ on your whim? Do they spin a wheel to decide what platform you need to follow this series? Is the Ouya on that wheel?
Instead of making it available on the most platforms and make purchasing thier games easy and convenient, they choose the more asinine route off being completely irratic.
I have friends who still havent played the masterpiece that is P4G because its only on the Vita.
God dammit Atlus.

Don't get me wrong I would get the Switch version because I don't use my PS4 anymore. I am just sick and tired of exclusive games from 3rd parties, that's all.
Why are meltdowns needed if its exclusive? It's a bloody port with extra content.
I got over SMT4 being a 3DS game after playing 3 on a PS2. You people also will.
Plans can change at the last minute. Calling someone into doubt because they won't share all the toys now isn't going to make them react how you like. I'm confident what they're holding is accurate to the best of their knowledge. Whether plans have shifted on the Atlus side, who knows?
