I sure hope so. I remember getting FFXV on Black Friday 2017, I enjoyed it but the loading times were wild. Then Xenoblade 2 came out with much faster loading and I could never take FFXV seriously again.

Near instant loading times really would be next gen stuff.

The original trilogy is my favorite game series of all time, I’m thrilled to see the trilogy becoming so widely available. Here’s hoping for new fans and some better writing for new games.

@Flaming_Kaiser Lol, so I'm stuck up for wanting the game to reach a bigger audience but you're in the right for wanting to keep it stowed away because...reasons?

You missed April Fool's Day, my friend. Try again next year.

I have to admit this looks a lot better than it first did, and a lot of my disappointment toward this being a follow up to Transformed has gone away. I doubt it'll live up to its predecessor but I'm sure it'll be fun in its own right.

@dancingstar93 yeah I know, I was referring to finally seeing his model in motion. I didn’t realize it was old news lol

Realistically, the Switch is about to overtake the PS4’s lifetime Japan sales at just over two years of life. Not releasing on Switch, especially with Joker coming to Smash, would be insanely stupid and even the most die-hard PS4 fans should hope for a dual release as it’ll only make Persona get more fans.

But it’s probably Stadia

That was great, but more importantly I didn’t realize we had any footage of the new protagonist. I mean obviously this video is a joke but it’s nice to see what he’ll look like in game of Shin ever releases.

Holy crap I hope it can. I’m one of the biggest Nintendo guys you’ll find here but 8 was a total let down - terrible roster and boring single player. The battle mode was trash too but that’s been fixed. It was hard playing Sonic Racing Transformed with all its modes and characters and then going to MK8 with made up characters and nothing but Grand Prix or time attack.

@Ralizah Sure did, I’m still day one with anything AA related. I just don’t like how the new writer is so focused on huge consiparacies and CUHRAZY twists rather than small scale character-driven stories. Even in the end of the original trilogy, the stakes were high for the characters involved but it wasn’t some insane “the entire country is depending on this” stuff.

But I did enjoy SoJ despite that. Not sure where I would want the series to go next but the new writer did earn my trust with that.

I really hope that this does well off Nintendo systems. I love the original trilogy, they’re my favorite series of all time. The new ones don’t hold up and I doubt anything else in the future will, but seeing more love for 1-3 will always be great.

Not surprised but I am still disappointed. Joker coming to smash in April will shoot up public interest, especially for those who haven’t played P5, so waiting until then to make headlines with the full reveal makes sense.

Can’t wait to be told that we’ll get news at FES, then hear that it’s a remake but get no info on platforms or new content.

But really I’m excited, as long as they show what it is then they can’t go wrong.

Hopefully it’s like the new Direct format - just snappy and to the point without all the extra crap.

This is gonna be great either way.

Absolutely will be buying the Castlevania ones, the only game from the series I’ve really played was Aria of Sorrow on Wii U eShop and I really enjoyed it. I guess it comes down to how they split the games. They say this is the “first” Castlevania collection, so I wonder if they’ll do one collection with platformers and one collection with Metroid-like games.

Also I hope for Contra Rebirth to be on there now that the Wii Shop Channel is dead. My brother and I still quote that game’s stupid-ass lines, it was amazing.

This is one of those, “I already own a perfectly fine copy on another system but I’ll buy it again” kind of games. I didn’t like the first half of the open world - there’s tons of long backtracking if you don’t do things in the exact right order. However eventually you start finding completely new areas to explore and then it gets to be 10/10 again.

Right up there with Shovel Knight and Celeste.

I can only hope this will be an acceptable follow up to Transformed. It does look better with each new trailer, I’ll admit.

I’m so excited for these games to find a new audience on PS4. This is my favorite series of all time, I can replay them over and over and they never get old.

The original trilogy is my favorite series of all time, I’m so glad it’s about to find a new audience. Everything after the originals kinda sucks though lol

Can’t freaking wait, this was the only thing I was hoping to see from that presentation today. Anyone who hasn’t played a game from this series needs to play it now, they’re all on PlayStation (except the first ever one which is chained to DSi)

At least the music will be killer!

This is obviously the likely pick, but man do I wish they’d announce Xenoverse 3 already.

Considering that the press release states “no consoles have been announced at this time” and that a cursory glance at reveal trailers will show a bunch that start with a PS logo just to end up being multiplats, I’m not sure why anyone is assuming this will be PS exclusive just yet (let’s also keep in mind that Switch has already outsold PS4/Slim lifetime sales in Japan in a fraction of the time!)

It’s been obvious for a long time that the writers here have nothing in their lives except console wars but hopefully some fellow readers live outside of that bubble.

Anyway, I’m not going to get excited over an announcement of an announcement but I sure hope this is the FES/Golden version of P5. I doubt they’d give this much attention to a spinoff although I’d settle for a new Arena game too.

It wouldn’t be the first time they’ve updated a domain name and then had an announcement about a week later, and with the OVA coming out it’s possible it’s that time again.

I know no one here wants to hear it but considering Joker being in Smash, a Switch port like FES and Golden seems most likely to me. I’d also be up for a fighting game though.
