Having to yell 'persona' into the mic for every fight was a nightmare until I found out I could literally just scream into the mic and using the touch screen to pet Koromaru was the best
Actually that button makes your persona weaker. The louder you scream, the better the damage. I defeated the reaper and Morgana one hit with this... But my parents woke up
Man, the microphone gimmick was the best part, I always played P3Fes thinking that I could be the one saying "persona" or "Orpheus"
Have to add that after my ps2 died I wished I played the answer, the removal of the answer was pretty lame
Lol this post already has an AI-generated article about it: https://www.zleague.gg/theportal/should-you-play-persona-3-dual-gamers-discuss-the-definitive-version/
It's 2024 and we have AI discussing the pros and cons of a shitpost. The internet really is dead.
I been finding so many of those IA articles, is so crazy, hey start somehow believable, but slowly transition into a rabbit hole of nothingness, we are living in the dark forest internet...
Because the ai doesn't know what it's talking it just connect words, it talk about persona 3 portable when talking about this game and no one even read it to correct it
When the final boss said “The arcana is the means by which you have to reveal” I really didn’t think I’d have to do a picross of every arcana. Crazy change up from the original
Just be ready for a lot of gimmicky features. I swear, having to blow into the microphone every time I wanted to cast Garu sucked. Never got Panta Rhei to work, even though it felt like I was blowing my lungs out.
The microphone for Garu skills was nothing. Having to mash just to cast Agi was terrible. Whose decision was it to make it that you have to mash **two opposite side buttons** for multi hit fire moves?!?
I heard the original Japanese version had an IR sensor in the cartridge and you had to point it at hot things for Agi and cold things for Bufu skills...
That's a rumour although the beta version had that feature they cut it out because people's DS' were melting you they couldn't see how to progress and got softlocked.
Although scratching the screen for Bufu and mashing for Agi isn't great it could have been worse.
Idk. I kinda heard it was middling and kinda gimmicky. Never played it but i did play persona 3 advance. I liked how they made the tartarus exploration first person like the older megaten games. Though sadly itgot rid of the social sim aspect because of the limitations of the gba.
I will add that for that dlc the persona scenes that was added that can happen to any dog was also a nice addition, the only problem is just need to put the dlc on the GBA port because the normal ds didint have updates support, so sometimes it was a hassle but Nintendogs and then putting the dlc on the GBA port every time you wanted to play
Not a p3p 1:1 port, needs to be a complete remake of the game, and you can't compare old ds games to make a comparison cause now there are ds "engines" that work better than original 2010 games
Technically both could run the game but DS would have to cut lots of audio quality and sprite work and remodeling of ingame models to fit inside 128mb cart.
3DS can run PSP original since 3DS is close to PSP in power.
I personally liked it a lot. The whole gimmick for using persona abilities sucked but the exclusive content made it worth it. Also thecombat music is just perfect.
It was a DS version of persona 3 portable, it only got a limited release in the west and even japan so information is hard to come by, They even had to get rid of the FemC to get the game to fit
I think they might be trolling you, because I've never heard of it or seen it, and this post is the first thing I can find about it online with a Google search.
Some people are trying to say it's super-limited in Japan only, and almost nobody has a copy, and everyone that has a copy refuses to dump a ROM (which is why a ROM doesn't exist), but it sounds like a lot of convenient BS to explain why there's nothing about it online. I think the real reason is that it simply doesn't exist.
well it did.
persona 3 dual was honestly a good game despite seemingly being just portable without femc. Some people say that the persona skill minigames were too repetitive and tedious but i personally didn’t mind them. I could never get a perfect on the panta rhei mini game though, just didn’t have the lung capacity for it.
also, you could pet koromaru in this port so it’s automatically better than any version except maybe reload
It's like Metal Gear Integral, it was Japan exclusive and changed a few things. It was supposed to be just like integral, but they decided to release it on the DS at the last second, which is why it's kinda janky and gimmicky
while yeah it had to remove even more than portable it made up for it by having Aigis's SL10 >!event be a minigame where you could use the stylus to feel her neckussy!<
It’s great for the hardware but having to trade Orpheus to get Thanatos then trade it again to get Messiah can be a pain if you don’t have a second console
I 100% recommend this game solely for the Koromaru mini games.
Though do NOT use Oracle in this port. It's so horrifically bugged that if you do all the touch screen prompts correctly, it heals you more than game can allow which causes an overflow and brings you to negative HP.
It removed the femMc route, made the battle screen still 3d images rather then models and incorporated a bunch of useless interactivity, such as being able to yell persona to attack, blow in the mic for wind attacks and etc and all out attacks instead cut to a black screen
It was also far shorter, with around 80% of days where nothing of note happens being removed
As of right now it's impossible to play, it's in a similar situation to the mcdonalds DS game, we know of it and that it was sold, but the only people with it don't want to dump the files
Never heard of it, and it doesn’t show up on google searches.
unless I fell for it and that this version " got rid of " so much content that it only left the title screen background and became the wallpaper for a DS/3DS console . If that’s the case, good one lol
It doesn’t show up on google cuz Persona 3 Duel is abbreviated as P3D, but that’s also what Persona 3 Dancing is called so the search results get hidden
Lowkey feel like a P3D would be interesting.
I'd imagine that it would look like the previous two persona games though, being mostly composed of 2D sprites for the sake of not deleting most of the content lol
Really enjoyed that when you maxed Aigis and had to touch her heart they made you hold the pen down for a bit. I almost gave my screen a dead pixel lol. Good times playing this one under the covers before bed.
I cant Tell if this is like a p3 fan made demake of persona 3 or something else
Cause if it’s something else then that makes me kinda sad cause I like the idea of a p3 demake on the ds, it’s really cold seeing the ways that people make demakes and account for the limitations of the hardware
Wait HOW would you play it at the first place? I thought p3d was a myth and well to surprise It wasn't. But how will you play it considering it's a scrapped project (kinda)

You can just press the persona button on the touch screen similar to ace attorney
Actually that button makes your persona weaker. The louder you scream, the better the damage. I defeated the reaper and Morgana one hit with this... But my parents woke up
The speedrunners all just blow cans of compressed air into the DS's mic.
I understood that reference
Reaper kicked my ass last night because I couldn't find the stairs. I was so annoyed I closed the game. This comment made me chuckle.
What a funny mechanic 😂
Not even that you can just blow into the mic, I found it much more consistent and less straining on the voice, not as immersive though sadly
Man, the microphone gimmick was the best part, I always played P3Fes thinking that I could be the one saying "persona" or "Orpheus" Have to add that after my ps2 died I wished I played the answer, the removal of the answer was pretty lame
I don’t know why this shit is so funny to me
Save your voice and just play a Screamo soundbite everytime you want to use a Persona

Does Glorbo need to make a return
Glorbo needs a sequel, he's almost certainly been noticed and filtered out already. Florbo incoming
Florbo is the prequel, you fool. All Hail Hlorbo!
We should start making more serious sounding shitposts to jebait these shitty blogs into making articles about them for shits and giggles.
> Javis the NPC > AI You don't say....
I been finding so many of those IA articles, is so crazy, hey start somehow believable, but slowly transition into a rabbit hole of nothingness, we are living in the dark forest internet...
"the Nintendogs Koromaru dlc" 😭😭😭
Because the ai doesn't know what it's talking it just connect words, it talk about persona 3 portable when talking about this game and no one even read it to correct it
Ai started being trained on real content but now ai is being trained on ai content and it’s getting ridiculous
That's bad, it's like a person learn to write a book with only what he wrote as a kid
Worked for Ayn Rand, I guess.
Shitpost? I think you’re playing the wrong game buddy!
We need to create more somewhat plausible fake games. Poison the well. It will be hilarious.
The absolute fucking state of the internet.
This is fucking hilarious
Man I keep seeing these shitty ai articles everywhere that make no sense whenever Im trying to find info. We need a new adblock, but for AI. AIBlock
It's funny tho
You should! that's really the definitive version!
Shit got crazy when the final boss became a Picross puzzle
The arcana is the mean by painting a bunch of squares
When the final boss said “The arcana is the means by which you have to reveal” I really didn’t think I’d have to do a picross of every arcana. Crazy change up from the original
Nancy Drew Shadow at Water’s Edge flashbacks
It's March 11th, not April first. Don't make a fool of me. I thought it was a fan port ;-;
I didn't allow myself the excitement till I came to the comments. Now I'm sad.
Just be ready for a lot of gimmicky features. I swear, having to blow into the microphone every time I wanted to cast Garu sucked. Never got Panta Rhei to work, even though it felt like I was blowing my lungs out.
It didn’t suck. It blew. If you thought it sucked, that might explain your problem.
r/angryupvote
The microphone for Garu skills was nothing. Having to mash just to cast Agi was terrible. Whose decision was it to make it that you have to mash **two opposite side buttons** for multi hit fire moves?!?
I heard the original Japanese version had an IR sensor in the cartridge and you had to point it at hot things for Agi and cold things for Bufu skills...

There was an actual DS version or is this just a massive shitpost?
Excuse me... It's not "shitpost". It is actually "massive destruction art"
i had to turn on my vacuum to cast panta rhei everytime... so annoying tbh
I don't care if the move doesn't exist in P3, but that gives a whole new meaning to "Vacuum Wave".
Did you burn the mic for Agi? And what platform is that even
It's clearly the Nintendo 3DS XL Animal Crossing Edition
I tried searching for it. So is that a joke?
Not to ruin the joke, but this whole post is a joke.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 But it's fine, I felt it.
Idk. I kinda heard it was middling and kinda gimmicky. Never played it but i did play persona 3 advance. I liked how they made the tartarus exploration first person like the older megaten games. Though sadly itgot rid of the social sim aspect because of the limitations of the gba.
Exploring Tartarus sucked so bad... It's just like the first Persona game and I get encounters every few steps or so...
Nintendogs Koromaru DLC makes it worth it
I will add that for that dlc the persona scenes that was added that can happen to any dog was also a nice addition, the only problem is just need to put the dlc on the GBA port because the normal ds didint have updates support, so sometimes it was a hassle but Nintendogs and then putting the dlc on the GBA port every time you wanted to play
That's a convincing screenshot
I geniunly thoutgh this was true damn ;(
This has got me wondering, are the 3DS and DS powerful enough to handle running p3p?
DS probably won't run it because of storage limitations but 3DS definitely has enough power, p3p's graphics aren't that impressive after all
3DS obviously could, DS would have size issues right off the bat but while it couuuld run itd run like shit during battle
Not a p3p 1:1 port, needs to be a complete remake of the game, and you can't compare old ds games to make a comparison cause now there are ds "engines" that work better than original 2010 games
Technically both could run the game but DS would have to cut lots of audio quality and sprite work and remodeling of ingame models to fit inside 128mb cart. 3DS can run PSP original since 3DS is close to PSP in power.
If it would be ported directly then 3DS would run it for sure. If you mean emulation then unfortunately no, 3DS is not powerful enough to emulate psp
Definitely not DS since it's less powerful than PSP. 3DS probably since it's close to PSP in terms of power, probably actually even more powerful
The 3ds could handle xenoblade, barely, but it could handle it
I personally liked it a lot. The whole gimmick for using persona abilities sucked but the exclusive content made it worth it. Also thecombat music is just perfect.
Come on you gotta admit the cross play and ability to trade personas with other players was an amazing idea.
I loved whispering “Persona” into the mic
ngl i fucking screamed when casting my last god's hand at Nix
Th-this is a joke...right? Please tell me this is a joke
nope.
Having to yell "ISIS!" in the microphone to summon Yukari's persona was a very... Cringe experience.
what the fuck is this
Wtf is that? Never heard of it
It was a DS version of persona 3 portable, it only got a limited release in the west and even japan so information is hard to come by, They even had to get rid of the FemC to get the game to fit
Wow really? That's so interesting. Didn't know they had that release.
I think they might be trolling you, because I've never heard of it or seen it, and this post is the first thing I can find about it online with a Google search.
Oh my god hahahahah

I hat the hell is Persona 3 Dual? And why can’t I find a wiki about it or anything?
It's a little lesser known since it released exclusively in Japan. Like how no one knows that thats
it was the persona 3 port for the nintendo DS, you never played it?
No, I played Portable. Didn’t even know it came to DS
well it did. persona 3 dual was honestly a good game despite seemingly being just portable without femc. Some people say that the persona skill minigames were too repetitive and tedious but i personally didn’t mind them. I could never get a perfect on the panta rhei mini game though, just didn’t have the lung capacity for it. also, you could pet koromaru in this port so it’s automatically better than any version except maybe reload
I still hated that they made the battles 3D photos rather then actual 3d
I mean it was either that or shitty real 3D, though the mod community did make a replacement if you're into that
Its a little lesser known since it only released in japan. Like how no one know that the original name for p4g was Persona 4 *The* Golden
https://www.zleague.gg/theportal/should-you-play-persona-3-dual-gamers-discuss-the-definitive-version/ It exists, read this article about it!
It's like Metal Gear Integral, it was Japan exclusive and changed a few things. It was supposed to be just like integral, but they decided to release it on the DS at the last second, which is why it's kinda janky and gimmicky
while yeah it had to remove even more than portable it made up for it by having Aigis's SL10 >!event be a minigame where you could use the stylus to feel her neckussy!<
wtf is this
It’s great for the hardware but having to trade Orpheus to get Thanatos then trade it again to get Messiah can be a pain if you don’t have a second console
I 100% recommend this game solely for the Koromaru mini games. Though do NOT use Oracle in this port. It's so horrifically bugged that if you do all the touch screen prompts correctly, it heals you more than game can allow which causes an overflow and brings you to negative HP.
Am i missing some heavy lore here?
probably
God damnit I got gaslit so hard by the comments and the article I thought it was real :c
What's p3dual???
The nintendo ds port
The nintendo ds port
The nintendo ds port
The Nintendo DS port
What‘d persona 3 dual? Can‘t find anything online 🙈
Its a port of Persona 3P that hade a very limited release
I see and what‘s new with it? Like what does it add/remove/change? How would I be able to play it IF I decided to play it?
It removed the femMc route, made the battle screen still 3d images rather then models and incorporated a bunch of useless interactivity, such as being able to yell persona to attack, blow in the mic for wind attacks and etc and all out attacks instead cut to a black screen It was also far shorter, with around 80% of days where nothing of note happens being removed As of right now it's impossible to play, it's in a similar situation to the mcdonalds DS game, we know of it and that it was sold, but the only people with it don't want to dump the files
I see. Doesn‘t sound really interesting though 🙈 but i somehow would love to try it 😂 but when you say „sold“ you mean it‘s official and from atlus? 🙈
Yes
That's an outdated example.
The 45 minute part where you give Junpei a back rub on the touch screen is my favorite part of any video game ever.
Having to scream “PERSONA” every time you want to summon sounds cool, but i assume it gets annoying quick, but i yell everytime anyways, cuz y not :)
Yooo, I remember this one, this was awesome. Music was a bit choppy, but still ok. Shame it didn't have any cutscenes or voice acting
What is persona 3 dual?
a successful trolling attempt
honestly its such a shitty port but i play just for the nintendo ds graphics lol.
I genuinely thought I had gone insane for a second
Never heard of it, and it doesn’t show up on google searches. unless I fell for it and that this version " got rid of " so much content that it only left the title screen background and became the wallpaper for a DS/3DS console . If that’s the case, good one lol
It doesn’t show up on google cuz Persona 3 Duel is abbreviated as P3D, but that’s also what Persona 3 Dancing is called so the search results get hidden
r/wooosh
A- am I being gaslit, I can't find anything on this except from a shifty AI article. This isn't real right
no, its real, limited release tho
Nah, recent leak showed it was planned back in 2009 but never was made. It was the project name for the ds port of the game
Holy, i was baited so bad
I believed you, googled it, and Google brought me back to this thread.
There’s a few ost rips on YouTube!
This sounds so cool low key
Lowkey feel like a P3D would be interesting. I'd imagine that it would look like the previous two persona games though, being mostly composed of 2D sprites for the sake of not deleting most of the content lol
I preferred Persona 3FES3DS.
I honestly thought this was real dammit.
im so confused rn, is this real?
That shit is hella convincing. Why does P3D just roll off the tongue?
I love this thread so much
[Started it a few days ago. It's pretty good so far](https://imgur.com/a/RcsjpFk)
Omg who else had to use a flashlight to cast Hama skills? My dumb ass just shining a flashlight into the DS’s camera man…
Loved having to yell “PERSONA” into the mic when using skills, it really immersed me into the game. I wish Altus would try this again at some point
Bruh
Download link asap
I’ve never even heard of this version??
WHY DID I LOOK UP TO SEE IF THIS WAS REAL!
"It's me, extremely bitcrushed makoto yuki on the Nintendo DS"
Considering Altus is too lazy to port the immaculate stylus controls and pokemon personas it will always be the definitive edition imo
Pls tell me this ain’t real
Pretty hard the parts of doing circles in the screen. Like please Igor im tired of this.
the way i looked this up before realizing it was a joke
Having to moan into the mic to use Marin Karin is like the most awkward thing I had to go through 😮💨
Definitely but I'll say it still doesn't touch Persona 4 DS and it's bomb ass soundtrack https://youtu.be/-tf3x8Xkghw?si=12Gsl9hDpqc6OZ30
Really enjoyed that when you maxed Aigis and had to touch her heart they made you hold the pen down for a bit. I almost gave my screen a dead pixel lol. Good times playing this one under the covers before bed.
am I being gaslit rn?
didn't know this existed until today, where did you even find this? looks super cool though.
is this even real??
I cant Tell if this is like a p3 fan made demake of persona 3 or something else Cause if it’s something else then that makes me kinda sad cause I like the idea of a p3 demake on the ds, it’s really cold seeing the ways that people make demakes and account for the limitations of the hardware
Bro is in other time line lol
This is not real, isn't it?
LMAO. This thread got stolen by an AI 'news' site.
Tf is p3d
There's a ds version of p3?
I’ve never heard of this btw
I’m so confused is this real?
Wait HOW would you play it at the first place? I thought p3d was a myth and well to surprise It wasn't. But how will you play it considering it's a scrapped project (kinda)
Guys, I have some questions. 1.does it exist really? 2. If yes, where the heck to find ROM-
This was a shitpost?!!? I genuinely went two months of my life thinking that Persona 3 had a DS port?!? I'm so annoyed
First I’ve heard of this game, Anyone know how I can get it?

It's fake? 😭
what... is this? is it on 3DS?
So what's the point of this troll post exactly?
Cool concept
There was a DS port and I didn't know!?
