The trailer looks great. Surprised at no PS4 version, but I was going to get it on Switch anyway. Can't wait.

Wow, Nintendo going for big games early on with the Switch. This is exciting news! A strong Nintendo really is what we need right now.

Looks cool.

But SMT 4 didn't come out on the Vita or PS3, so i'm not that shocked about no PS4.

Looks pretty good but sadly unlike Persona I never found my way into this series. I tried it several times but It did not just click with me for some reason. Do I need to play these games in order or are they like the Persona series and mostly singular titles.

Oh shit, that's going to be glorious. I'd probably have gone for Switch over PS4, considering there's obviously no PC option :(

There is still the Nintendo factor though. Only Reason I did not buy Tokyo Mirage. And Atlus mentioned it was out of their control here.

Yeah, because Nintendo were publishing that game (and it had Nintendo IP in there too). Atlus' own stuff has come to Nintendo entirely uncensored for the last 30 years- just on the 3DS, we had Devil Survivor, Devil Survivor Overclocked, Persona Q, seven Etrian Odyssey games, and of course, SMT4 and SMT4 Apocalypse.

Was Shin Megami Tensei IV censored much on 3DS?

I don't own any consoles, but damn do i want a switch. Its gonna be my first console purchase in years, honestly. The current state looks great and the future just looks bright. i just hope SD card manufacturers can get those TB cards out in time, so i can go crazy on that console like i do on PC on terms of digital software.

This. It's no surprise at all.

Atleast the superior SMT game aka Persona is exclusive to Playstation.

Naw, Persona is way better than SMT. You're as bad as the clown right below you, to you what looks good or not is determined only by what platform it is on.

Wasn’t Shin Megami IV a 3DS exclusive? Here’s the first real sign of the Switch being a 3DS successor for third parties.

Xenosaga123 is a special breed of fanboy, I tells ya.

They do forget the MAIN Tensei games have been primarily on Nintendo for a while now, right? Good lord, the PS fanboys boast about how much more "mature" they are to Nintendo fanboys, yet they act like children when a game isn't on PlayStation. They've been spoiled since the mid-late 90's, while Nintendo fans have had f*** all by comparison, many of them, while wishing they got better third party support (myself included), still came to freaking grips with what they got.

Sums it all up:

I am looking forward to it. I thought Nocturne was alright (overrated by some people) but I did enjoy SMTIV.

I was worried this would be coming to the 3ds. This is great news and a great addition to the lineup.

Hopefully I have time to finish Xenoblade Chronicles 2 before this launches.

I like this series much more than Persona (Not really into High School social sim aspects in Persona), so this will be great! I have had person 5 sitting unopened on my coffee table for months and still have not really had the desire to play it.

I thought Persona 5's success might've got these games to hit other platforms like PS4. Boy was I wrong. I guess I'll just wait like another 8 years for Persona 6 lol

@charizard1605: I must have missed that. It's harder for me to keep up with all the gaming news these days. I'm just so used to seeing these on the gba, ds, and 3ds.

Nintendo is the least likely of the three console makers to censor something. They've released multiplats on their systems with less censorship than the same game on other platforms. Even Conker got censored by Microsoft when it was brought over to the Xbox from the N64.

The irony of this is Tokyo Mirage Sessions was censored to some degree, though I imagine the call was made to maintain the T rating in the west since the material that was censored revolved around gravure modeling which might skirt the M rating here in the west. And since the game didn't sell well at all in Japan, I'm willing to believe the censorship decision stemmed from a desire to boost potential sales of the game in the west.

That aside... @oliver8114 there's little chance SMT5 would be censored considering it's Atlus' call this time, not Nintendo's.
