I am a huge fan of the Persona series, especially after 3, but is it really worth that kind of money, especially for a handheld game? I remember some limited edition console games going for the same price as this 3DS games, and it doesn't even come with anything special, just the game and case. I might have been lucky because of a failed labeling situation, I was able to get a new copy of the game for $50 which is odd because there was only one copy of the game but two display cases and one of them said $60. Even with that, the $60 one was on sale down from like $80 normally and I don't even know why.

3DS is known for having some of the more expensive games, especially for handheld games, you never seem to get a new release that's cheap and price drops rarely happen yet most of their games are probably $40 and have a lot, so why does the game have to be so expensive? Is it really that big? Is it bigger than the couple hundred hours that can be played in Persona 4, which had been around $20 for the longest? I'm a huge fan of the series, so I bought the game regardless, but I want to know if it was the right move. Is the game really that long or has that many things inside to do?

One thing that I know about the game is that you can do the story with characters from either Persona 3 or Persona 4. What I would like to know concerning this is if you play the same story with each set of characters or does the story change to reflect the game? Are there any other aspects that really make the game that big?
