re: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Announced for Nintendo DS

Here's a written up version of all this information with plot and character details along with some info regarding the game.

After all the content they seem to be putting into this game (300 demons, proper exploration), it kinda makes SMT: DS look like a joke.

Because Devil Survivor isn't CLASSIC MEGATEN.

Yes, yes it is.
The whole combat system in it is very well made.

Wow, I am so happy about all of these SMT games coming out on the DS. Especially since this is Classic SMT.

re: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Announced for Nintendo DS

I might look into this, especially since I never got to experience the classic MegaTen formula. What is the battle system normally like?

I want to know what the series is like overall. Some one tell me what gameplay is like?

re: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Announced for Nintendo DS

I just wrote a review for Devil Survivor, if you guys want to check it up. It'll give you a basic idea, but Strange Journey will add a lot more to it, like proper exploration and stuff, being an actual MegaTen game and all. Overall, I think SMT:DS is a pretty decent entry-point if you're interested in Strange Journey. Plus, it'll help kill some time till it's released.

re: Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Announced for Nintendo DS

Classic Megaten battle systems focus on weaknesses. SMT3 used Press Turn, but the older Megatens uses more of a standard first person battle system. Skills + Elements + Weaknesses reign surpreme, and you win battles with the correct tactics. If you've played SMT3, you have an idea of the battle system.

The meat of the battle system are demons. You have to negotiate with demons before they join you (more in-depth than say Devil Survivor). Strange Journey will have 300+. Fusions to create stronger demons are also available.

Hardcore Gaming 101 has a good article that explains Megaten.

It's good news, however it's not only SMT that has been announced, a new Yggdra Union game has also.
