News: P4 Portable & Persona Fighting Game

Kotaku wrote:Atlus is giving future PlayStation Vita owners something to get excited about: a portable port of the PlayStation 2 game Persona 4, reportedly due for release in Japan in 2012 and packing lots of enhancements.

Japanese retailer blog Sinobi reports that Persona 4: The Golden, as it's supposedly called, adds new animation, at least one new character and new voice acting to the Japanese RPG. It also adds wireless support, which Andriasang says lets players "[call] on others to help you when you're about to die in a dungeon." A Vita Persona is great news as is, but for Atlus to give it a bit more polish is even better.

In less expected news, a Persona fighting game is also reportedly in the works by BlazBlue developer Arc System Works. The fighter, Persona 4 The Ultimate In Mayonaka Arena, is reportedly due to hit arcades in spring 2012, with a PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 version hitting later that summer.

New character HAS to be a male though. So they can have female souji, and still have the man side of the group. Since Masu explained full well why Kanji. Teddie, and Yosuke would not be enough.

I hate fighting games, but if it shows itself to be interesting, I would look into it. Probably not though. BUT Atlus has been good to me, so I should probably be good to them.

I would rather them do Persona 5 though. Or Namco BAndai to do Symphonia 3DS.
