Atlus deserves a win now, and before you were using shit and skull emojis, implying it's dead, and advocating for Sony exclusivity as if it's the solution to some imaginary problem on what is already a super niche game franchise only weeaboos care about.

Persona itself is lightyears ahead of it, still niche and not particularly mainstream, and yet we should pooh-pooh Atlus launching SMT side games on multiple platforms by driving it back into one platform based on the title.

Blatant console warrior logic is blatant.
Any game that is #500+ on the week of release should be worrying. Atlus games are niche but not THAT niche. You seem to disagree but whatever. I know why.

I'll keep you in my thoughts ❤

That’s entirely depends on the series, Persona is no longer as niche as used to be after Persona 3 but other MegaTen games like Devil Summoner series or Last Bible are very niche.

With the sales talk. I am curious if it has made back it's money in porting to pc and xbox.
We have no way of knowing right now. I'm pretty sure most of the sales were on Playstation, but the game is a sequel to a very niche series so who knows how overall sales are.

Yes I know I have them all but this time it's on 3 main platforms (PS/PC/Xbox) instead of mobile only (3ds). This is a first for Atlus so I was expecting more than #500 but I guess this is good from now on. I'll keep that in mind in the next sales threads. Thanks.
See kids? The brain rot that occurs in Console Warriors? If only this game was exclusive to my Console of choice, it totally would have sold better then!

Truly sad.
You guys should stop accusing others of being warriors when you're obviously the most triggerred about this. Yes, some games get a bigger marketing push when they are exclusives. See Persona, SMTV, Kena or even Deathloop. This is a basic, noncontroversial statement and I see it all the time when there's a big exclusive coming out (like TLOU).

No idea why it's such a sticking point suddenly.

Most sales being on playstation is just an of course. I'm most surprised that it isn't on switch. I bought the 3ds port of the first game but never did finish it. The shin megami tensei series isn't that niche anymore but this is also only a sequel in this spin off/branching game.

Yes, I was so triggered when I bought this on my PS5.

Some games do get a bigger marketing push when exclusive, but I doubt this game would have been one of them. Sony doesn't do marketing pushes out of the goodness of their heart, that shit costs money.

Stop trying to deflect the argument as well, everyone here can see your post history, you're not fooling anybody.

I bought a sex doll, but I keep it inflated 100% of the time and use it like a regular wife
Imagine trying to troll SMT fans with sale numbers out of all things
