Will Persona 5 sell 1 million copies worldwide?

Will Persona 5 sell 1 million copies worldwide?

Only if it has dual audio.

Easily. Persona is big-name now. P4 was a hit even with semi-normies.

weeb

there's not 1m weeaboos that can afford to buy a game at full price, user

You underestimate how much money weebs have figures aint cheap bud.

This.

Wouldn't surprise me if Persona 5 is gonna hit the 3 million park, at all. Persona has now become "the" JRPG, with the exception of Final Fantasy of course.

After the inevitable enhanced/downgraded port for handhelds it will.

>worldwide
Nigga, a mediocre game sells 100,000 in Japan. It will easily sell a million in Nipland alone.

No it has not become "THE" JRPG
Pokemon and maybe Tales of is still above it, as well as FF

Only on consoles? No.

With a PC/STEAM release? Of course.

I think you're massively overestimating its popularity if you think it will sell 3m, that's a huge amount. Pretty sure no Atlus game has ever sold even 1m.

I admit I forgot about Pokémon but I'm pretty sure Persona has a bigger following than Tales does now.

>Tales
>more popular than Persona
>people still believe this
Tales has fallen in popularity over the years while Persona has only gone up

I want a PC port of Persona 5 as well, but you don't need to shitpost. Its going to sell just fine on consoles. A million isn't even that high a goal. Should be easily reachable considering the game in question.

That's not true m8. P4G ultimately sold about 500k in Japan, and the Japanese vidya market has massively contracted since then. The best selling Persona game in Japan was the first.

Tales of is pretty much a shadow of its peak

P4G has nearly reached a million (and it might have already) worldwide on a system as dead as the Vita, it's easily going to make that figure especially thanks to the simultaneous EU release so Atlus isn't cucking out a third of their market

A million would be huge for a game like this. I doubt Atlus are expecting anywhere near that.

And a belated PC port really might push it over - I mean, Dragon's Dogma sold 400k on Steam, which isn't insignificant.

I seriously doubt P4G sold more than a million worldwide, plus the Vita is way bigger in Japan, its primary market, than the PS4 (but, admittedly, not the combined PS3/PS4 userbase, but PS3 games sales are dying even in Japan).

It has reached 1 mi last time I checked

>I think you're massively overestimating its popularity.

I don't actually think so, I don't think Atlus themselves have realized how big Persona has gotten overseas.

It completely snuck up on everybody, but Persona became a JRPG for people who don't normally play JRPG's. Weeb chicks are absolutely fucking obsessed with it. Persona 5 will hit critical mass, it will be that game that people who subscribe to CruchyRoll and watch Attack on Titan love.

Sorry if I offended anybody by saying that but it's the best way I can drescribe it.

1. Pokemon
2. Final Fantasy
3. Dragon Quest
4. Can Persona be 4th?

True but that game is still a remake. If one of the worst FF games (XIII) sold almost two million there, I wouldn't be surprised that P5 reach a million being on a platform every japanese have (ps3) and becoming as anticipated as nothing before.

What did ATLUS mean by this?

VGChartz says 1.4 million for Golden. On a literally dead in the water system. P5 is likely to double that in its lifetime.

Are you counting japan only or ww?

Yo-Kai Watch

If we're talking Japan Dragon Quest goes first
If we're talking west dragon quest isn't even on that list

Probably, but that's not saying much.

>VGChartz says

Bloodborne reached 3 million.

Really makes you think.

Making games for playstation will earn you a living.

Japan:

>Pokemon
>Dragon Quest
>Yokai Watch
>Final Fantasy
>Persona (?) / Tales of (?)
>Persona (?) / Tales of (?)

West
>Pokemon
>Final Fantasy
>Tales of
>Persona
>Dragon Quest

Dragon Quest hasnt been relevant in Japan in years. Doesnt cater to their rising virgin population enough.

Atlus can do well enough without filthy gaijin money.

>Japanese console market
>well enough
this thing will not get past 400k sales in japan. screencap this post.

lol, Jap devs wish. There's a reason why Konami is focusing on pachislot

Worldwide sales. Combining japan and the west.
Dragon Quest sells barely anything in the west but I'm pretty much sure that Dragon Quest sales in japan beat persona sales worlwide.
DQ 9 sold more than P4.
DQ 7 and 8 remake sold more than P4G.
DQ spinoffs sells more than persona spinoffs.

Forgot Wokai-watch

Why should I screencap it?

Everyone and their mother are predicting 350k after the tales of berseria fiasco

That was really my biggest dilemma. I'd played on PC for years until I realized that a lot of games I really wanted were either general console or PS4 exclusive. Last E3 sealed the deal for me and I caved.

Japan is MonHun, DQ, Pokemon, Persona, and Fate, Yokai Watch is just there now since Level-5 moved on and FF is almost kill because of SE's horrible reputation in Japan

No dual audio no buy.

Imagine if they release the game for PC...

kek

...

GET
FUCKING
REKT

> waifus in 1080p@144fps
WANT

I legit forgot monster Hunter

>Fate
I wouldnt agree
Fate has recognition,but its only presence aside from the VN is mobile, and counting mobile on japan is silly

Otherwise granblue fantasy would be second

>will it sell 1 million copies world wide

If Sony shills it enough like their other exclusives and "exclusives", then there would be a chance of it seeing good sales.

Bloodborne and Persona 5 eiffel towering a PCfat, filling him with nutritious black Playstation Playsemen, his only purpose in life is to be a container

Holy hot shit I'm laughin. At least you guys get P3 and 4 thanks to emulators.

It'll get 1 million in japan since FFXV turned out to be a disaster.

YW3 sold a million in Japan in an era when nothing sells a million anymore

Atlus already released a game for PC though.

PS4 Pro FFXV >>>>>>>>>> Persona 5

Not sure whether MH counts as an RPG, but that's probably the strongest and healthiest overall franchise in Japan right now

NEVER EVER

Maybe is a very stupid question, but why so much hate for PC?

>that CPU/GPU bottleneck

Enjoy your 4K game at 12FPS.

because the last time an actual Fatlus game was released on PC most desktops were vomit beige color and you connected to the internet by a phone line

>ffxv will be better than p5

Literally the most autistic thing I've seen this month, congrats user

Can't fucking wait, most likely gonna call in sick on the release day and will play it 24/7 for few days


I'd say 1 million is an understatement, I've heard many people not familiar with the series or weaboo games at all planning to buy this.

PC contributes absolutely nothing to the videogame industry.

1.4 million actually
P4G sold 400k in Japan alone.

Fate is hilariously popular in Japan because of the animes and LNs aside from the VN, mobage, and upcoming Extra game that Sony can make their money back on the animes and Takeuchi bought 3 Ferrari with the royalty money Sony gave him.

>filthy gaijin gives the series roughly 60% of its sales
>LETS JUST MAKE THEM WAIT 5 MONTHS MAYBE THIS WAY GRORIOUS NIPPONESE SALES WILL HAVE BETTER RATIO

I swear man

Kingdom Hearts.

KH is more popular in the west afaik

I only want a PC release for dual audio.

not a RPG

Why PC contribute nothing to the videogame industry?

I don't know about this, I'm kind of fed up with weebshit and the nips obsession with schools.

P5 was gonna be a backpacking story

im so le weeeeeeeeeb dude gosh i luv waifu and anime xD my fav meme is i hope senpai notice me haha so funny and my fav anime is re;zero its epic as f**k

Well according to Sega Persona in general has sold over 6 million copies WW, Japan is 3.28 million while the rest of the world makes up 50% of that

I'm sick of teenagers saving the world through the power of friendship, I'm getting too old for this shit.

You can never be too old for friendship

Now where did I put that nail gun...

I love how many people were disapointed with the OVA.

>WTF I THOUGHT THE GAME WOULD BE MORE SERIOUS BUT ITS JUST TEENAGERS USING POWER OF FRIENDSHIP TO FIGHT EVIL WHAT THE HECK MAN?!!?!?!?!?!?

When the devs said they were thieves you guys took that as literal evil thief who steal shit?

I'm still mystified that to this day, even 20 years after release P1 is still the highest selling game in the series in Japan. If anything its a testament to how big the JRPG market was in the 90's.It is sort of sad it will probably never reach that height again.

...

What game were they talking about?

SMT IV Apocalypse

Why is every usa companies social media marketers turning into the Sonic the hedgehog twitter? It's getting fucking annoying.

Atlus
>you are thieves breaking into people's minds
western audience
>WTF WE'RE GOING TO BE MURDERERS THAT STEAL SHIT JUST FOR MONEY LIKE ABSOLUTE MADMEN I HOPE THEY LET YOU RAPE AND KILL ALL THE ROMANTIC S LINKS IN THIS ONE THAT'D BE DOPE

...

Sup Forums should really aspire to be more like him.

I can't even be as dedicated as him about work, let alone weeb vidya.

This has literally been the series since P1, what are you doing here?

>Implying it won't be

Stay delusional Persona-cuck.

The umaru poster torments the already autistic persona fags with PC port begging in literally every persona thread.

There are plenty of high school simulators. Persona is nothing special.

That's pretty scary and pathetic at the same time.

>Uncharted 4
>Interactive movie

Oh please. Sure, Until Dawn was without question an interactive movie, but it's a gross exaggeration to say that any Uncharted 4 had no gameplay.

No one thought it would be edgy. People are disappointed because OVA was boring awfully written garbage.

Holy fuck Fatlus browses Sup Forums?

>Atlus has always been labeled as Fatlus and their fanbase labeled as obese sweaty people that never shower
>But now PC wants their games because it'd mean they wouldn't be only on Sony systems

really gets those synapses firing

he's literally posted here before and timestamped it

The game will be the same.
