I say bring it all over to modern consoles and pc.

There are rumors of a PS2 game getting ported and some more older smt ports, and a Netflix game.

We can see where that goes.

yes, I was reading something about Devil Summoner

Could also be DDS 1 and 2.

[Hymnos]

Yeah its no for me since they probably put 100$ or 150$ pricetag for the game, even the remaster version it got 80$ pricetag for standard edition and 100$ for the premium edition

I'd love to see them port over some of the 3ds games, it would take a bit of work due to the 2 screens but they have some of the best megaten games imo.

Porting DS/3DS games to other systems and PC has been done before by devs. So it is possible.

Would take some work moving the bottom screen features to a separate menu or to the single screen.

i will literally pay $70 for smt 4 on pc ♥♥♥♥ ill buy the ultra deluxe royal edition too

[Endora]

I would pay too, but my wallet doesn't like it, so I guess I'll have to wait a discount. I can play the Switch version until then.

[Hymnos]

I will wait the game until 80-90% off then probably I will consider to buy it

[Chopsteak]

Jack Frost bought the game without his wallet's consent.

I love that we will be able to choose how to play SMT V - the original (Canon of Creation) or the enhanced (Canon of Vengeance).

Sadly ATLUS did not do the same with Persona 3 Reload :(

It would be outright stupid to have two different versions selectable due to absolutely miniscule changes.

sound like pokemon to me, but talking more about that might put my life in danger

Too late, the smt community put out a hit on you already.

But in all seriousness they do not look like minor changes. The new Vengeance story line looks to be changing into something else entirely midway through. So same start but then different middle and endings.

I'm guessing the 'vengeance' storyline is the way to go then.
I'm in a weird spot where I never quite finished the classic game, and I don't know how far I got (Went back to the real world HQ/School twice I think?) but the Switch performance was just so bad that it was legitimately giving me a headache and I had to quit.

From everything I'm reading here and on reddit etc. it sounds like the 'Storyline' was pretty non-existent and bad in the base game anyway, so I guess I'll jump straight into the 'V' version when this launches.

Capcom did great ports of Phoenix Wright games (Nintendo DS). All you really need to do is update the game and menus to modern resolutions and put the second screen feature into a separate menu.

Your old PS2 games like DDS are easy to emulate on PC and while I would love to see them remastered and ported. I think we need really outdated games (Persona 1 & 2) and games that are stuck on weird systems like 3DS first.

PS2 emulation is so easy after getting the BIOS all you need to do is put a DVD into a disc tray of your pc and that's it, you can either play straight from disc or rip an ISO file to your PC.

3DS emulation is pain. Requires extra tools and it still sucks because of the low-resolution menus and dual screen feature.

Yup Atlus has ported games from the DS/3DS era with the Etrian Odyssey games. So porting the SMT IV games and Persona Q is quite possible. Hell they even ported Tokyo Mirage Sessions from the Wii-U which had 2 screens between the TV and the Wii-U game pad to the Switch.

Yeah PS2 is a cake walk to emulate now a days. Yeah 3DS emulation requires quite a bit of horsepower to do properly. Even DS emulation suffers from that in terms of the low res menus and dual screens go.

The original story was very bad. The characters, if you are generous enough to even call them characters, were just bland and had nothing noteworthy about them. I struggle to even remember their names. The chaos rep is just, there, and the only personality trait I can give him is that he likes his sister (not in a weird way). The law rep has the closest thing to development where we almost see him slowly go into the law hero role, but it's far too quick. The neutral rep is the only one with any semblance of character and actually makes sense for what he wants. He actually has a believable reason for wanting to go neutral. You can have likeable and good characters in smt, just look at smt 4 for example. That game also shows how you successfully devolve characters to being a vehicle for their ideology of law or chaos or neutral. And it's done a hell of a lot better there than anything we see in smt 5.Not to mention, this whole fight for law, chaos or neutral only happens in the last few hours of the game. Everything before that is you working for the law faction.
