After Devil Summoner 1.
the 3DS version of SH is really good, basically has all of the content of Saturn/PS1 and more.

Too bad. I prefer playing the game fullscreen on my TV. Add to that the touch controls aren't emulated perfectly.

>>10219298
>touch controls
Does Soul Hackers 3DS even have touch controls? I played through it two years ago and I don't remember needing to use the touchscreen at all.

I was really disappointed that Atlus never brought the first Devil Summoner to 3DS and instead made a bunch of pointless DS ports.

>>10219307
You don't need to use use the touchscreen, OP is just being a weirdo. Even the most hardcore SMTfags think the 3DS port is excellent (it is).

>>10219307
I'm not sure, I haven't tried it yet but I remember playing Picross 3D and it was bad.

>>10219315
I'm autistic when it comes to DS games, I just don't like the seperated screens.

>>10219298
Isn't there a way to connect a 3DS to a TV?
Anyway, I get what you mean, it's nice to play the original version on original hardware if you're a fan of the game, but I think people would get upset if a Soul Hackers fan translation comes out before one for Devil Summoner 1, considering we already have Soul Hackers in english.

>>10219317
Exactly, no one is going to spend hundreds of hours of their life translating and hacking a game that already got an excellent translation and is easily emulated.
>>10219316
I'm not sure what to tell you hombre; try a 2DS

>>10219319
Why would they translate again? Couldn't they just copy the 3DS translation?

>>10219326
Sure, but you can't just drop it into the PSX/Saturn versions and call it a day. It's complicated and (very) time consuming to hack this kind of thing and not worth anyone's time when ATLUS already took care of it.

>>10219314
They brought it to the PSP alongside those Persona ports, though it never released outside of Japan.
>>10219315
>Even the most hardcore SMTfags think the 3DS port is excellent (it is).
It absolutely is. They even preserved the FMVs. There's not really a reason to play the console versions outside of doing so for curiosity's sake, which is why the translation efforts for them are non-existent. Sorry OP.

Just did some googling and it looks like someone's been messing around with the idea. Like the other anon said, it's not as simple as copy and paste. Take a look at some of the issues this guy is running into.

>>10219334
>>10219342
Thanks a lot, that's exactly what I've been looking for. I guess I'll wait until this one gets released.

>>10219292
im still waiting for that psp translation of devil summoner. i coulda learned nip at that point

>>10219314
>3DS
But why?

Didn't Tom complete a translation already but canned it when the 3ds version was announced or am I misremembering? The 3ds version was a pretty great port but I do like the original UI a bit better, and it would be cool to play on a crt.

>Tom
AeonShit?

>>10219983
No TranslatorTom. He did the famicom games, Majin Tensei and the recent smt ps1 translation.

>>10220167
Oh nice. AeonGenesis ruined their old translations, and the idea of them doing more pains me. Not that they are not content to just sit on titles with "dibs" on them. Cunts.

>>10220192
I think that guy said he was done with smt after getting bullied so much lmao. Now we have CJ Iwakura squatting on Devil Summoner to take his place, maybe someone will finish it out from under him like they did the PSP version of Eternal Punishment.

>>10220245
Good. Fuck Aeon and his butchering of SMT 1 and 2. He fucking broke routes and refused to try and fix them because they went against his ideology. Fucking cunt. No idea who CJ is, but I can only hope bullying is directed at him if he pulls stupid shit. Translators of all sorts need a good dose of bullying to keep them in line or make them quit the job. Otherwise you end up with faggotry like in manga fan translations.

>>10219317
Get a capture card modded 3DS if you don't want to emulate

>>10220921
>went against his ideology.
this reminds me exactly why smt never was released in the west. all due to religious references
seems like people bound to repeat same mistakes, failed to learn from the very past they trying to fix

>>10221297
>seems like people bound to repeat same mistakes, failed to learn from the very past they trying to fix
For Aeon it was not even religious reasons, he's just a massive faggot who thinks "this broke but I don't care about Chaos so fuck Chaos choosers."

>>10219315
It is, also the og version doesn’t have a demon compendium, in fact no SMT game did until P2, so unless you want to deal with that, play the 3DS version.

>>10221090
i wish somebody would make an open source 3ds capture modchip, the ones available now are more expensive then the 3ds itself.
