There's no spin.

Why in the hell else would you continue to purchase games in a franchise and not finish them.:dwillhuh:
I had DS1 already.

BB I bought day one.

DS2 and 3 my brother bought. I didn't buy it. I'll play it when I feel like it.

Dark Souls 3 came out the same day as a new Ratchet and Clank.
(Oh shyt I didn't finish that game yet!).

I already had BB.

Easy to see why.

You bought DS1 to get ready for Bloodborne.

I remember when you bought it.:stopitslime:

You bought bloodborne to Stan it.

And you just went and grabbed DS3 cause I said you stans don't care about it:mjlol:

In between the first release of Persona 4 and now

- Persona 2, 3, 4 were released in ps3.
- Persona 4 Golden released on ps3 and psvita
- Movies for Persona 3 were made
- Persona 4 got two anime series one for the original, one for golden
- Two fighting games with the creators of Blazblue came out with characters from P3 and P4

So Atlus has done a great job building the fan base for this game.

EDIT: also. PQ and Dancing all Night
persona 3 and 4 were released on PS2, Golden is only on Vita

I mean persona now is in the same position as dark souls was a few years ago where no one outside of the core fanbase cared about the series up until p4 golden came out and word of mouth spread about how goat it is.

no one gave a shyt about persona before persona 4 :stopitslime:

where were yall when persona 1 came out breh? :dahell:

fukk yall fake ass bandwagon ass fans breh :pacspit:
Actually change Persona 4 to Persona 3. Nobody was really playing Persona before Persona 3 blew up. There's also a decent part of the fanbase that only started the series after Persona 4 Golden came out but Persona blew up with Persona 3.

I would still say it ain't quite mainstream yet.

"Why weren't nikkas fukking with 2pac when 2Pacalypse or Strictly 4 My nikkaz came out? Why did nikkas hop on the Me Against the World bandwagon & everything after that? "
See how this works:francis:
Also to answer your question, it happened when people realized P4G was GOAT & Final Fantasy became trash:umad:

I started with Persona 1 PSP. I fell in love with it. Then i got Persona 3 Portable(psp). Once again, loved it. Then I bought Persona 4 Golden(actually what pushed me to get my Vita) and im now on my 3rd playthrough 150 hours later:noah:(i also purchased Persona 3 Portable again to have both on my Vita)

And ill fully admit, Persona 5 is what pushed me to get my PS4. I was holding off but then that trailer dropped earlier this month:wow: bought it that weekend.

Persona 5, day damn one:wow:

Persona 4 was a popular game. So people care about Persona 5.

I never really checked for Persona before 4 and hearing people talking about it. I checked out the Shin Megami Tensei series after playing it and will get around to playing P3.

Guess I'm a bandwagoner.
