Atlus Japan is about to release dynamic Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 themes for cell phones.

While you wait for Catherine and the eventual Persona 5, here’s a summary of a rare Persona 4 audio interview with series director, Katsura Hashino.

Atlus and collectible toy maker Mega Hobby Station bring you these super deformed Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 and Persona 4 keychains.

Sony and Atlus are reprinting Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 3 FES and Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 in Japan. Both games are upcoming PlayStation 2 the Best titles, according to retail leaks.

Puzzle pieces. Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 jigsaw puzzles exist and Atlus is selling two of them in their online shop.

Spoiler warning: If you haven’t completed BOTH Persona 3 FES and Persona 4, you might want to steer clear of this post. Don’t say I didn’t warn you!

Shin Megami Tensei is on the rise, but how popular is the series overseas? Atlus revealed sales figures for games released from August 2008 to July 2009 in their latest financial report.

At last Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4 is shipping to stores tomorrow. The wait may have felt like forever, but only five months passed since Persona 4 launched in Japan. This is quite an accomplishment considering Persona 4 has around one and a half times more text than Persona 3 which Atlus USA had over [...]

Square Enix Europe is “climbing the stairway to maturity”. That’s a Persona 4 joke – you’ll understand it soon – even if you’re in Europe.

You meet all kinds of comical teachers in Shin Megami Tensei: Persona 4, but Mr. Hosoi is the most memorable.
