I’ve head a NIco account for awhile, usue to be easy to search for vids just dropping in p4U but now that consoles out it’s much more annoying finding decent vids. Thanks for the stuff to use.
You can search the key tags and it will pop up. P4U or P4A.
Everyone just finds it the same way and reuploads to Youtube.
I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of watching Elizabeth matches, this chick has the sickest combos. Not to mention Thanatos is pretty frightening to see lunging at you and tossing you into coffins.
I think I’m gonna give her a whirl day 1, hope I’m man enough. If not I’ll just stick to Yuu, lol.
Also, Stunedge goes by ほーちゃん when playing P4U.
I was getting myself all hyped up for some more American P4A tournament play but then I remembered that WNF + B2 aren’t gonna start Persona until the day after release 
Back to lurking in Bretts stream for now then. DAMN YOU YUROP FOR HAVING SHITTY RELEASES!
This game beat EVERY GAME IN THE ENTIRE SFIV SERIES in Japan in first week sales.
( uses data from neogaf; P4A figures here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=484906 )
Edit: Made a thread for this — Persona 4 Arena = #1 First Week Sales in Japan 2008-2012
Edit2: (it also beat every other fighting game on home consoles)
This game will do great and I have to wait more than 1 month before I can play this…
This sucks!!
Wow, the game sold literally 12 times more of the PS3 version than the 360 version.
Will sell a tiny fraction of that in the U.S., and due to region locked MP the online scene will be dead within a couple months.
Persona prints money in Japan, that’s a given.
But question, who are the top players for this game in Japan?
The 360 is completely dead in Japan. This isn’t anything new.
I thought only the game itself was region locked, not netplay.
To the best of my knowledge that IS how it is, that just the game itself is.
And I actually never looked into how the 360 did in Japan, honestly.
Well, here are the Tougeki (SBO) qualifiers:

Off the top of my head, I’d also add FAB (Kanji), pet (Kanji), and Shadow (Naoto). There are plenty of other notable players though; Kubo (who is known in the US for Marvel) considers Persona his main game, for instance.
This is the case; you can netplay cross-regions.
online isnt region locked, and bb online took much longer than that to die despite lesser sales than p4a will probably get in america. p4a online will probably be healthy, especially since it has easier combos and is more quickly satisfying in ways than BB.
Buppa plays Yuu? sick
Any idea which system will be the preferred choice for Persona 4 in the USA? I have both systems but I’ve been on the fence about which system to get it for. Or would you say it doesn’t matter and both will have a healthy online community(at first anyways)?
Gonna be a while before I can get this (at least another month) but when I do Elizabeth is the one i’m going to focus on first as well, second maybe kanji or akihiko, I dont know it all really depends on if I enjoy using them.
Source for non-locked netplay? If that’s true, I’ll buy the game immediately.
I’d say PS3, there will be more people on that. If you have the choice go there.
