Prediction, gen alpha kids who grew up with only a Wii U who played it will make it a cult classic in 10-20 years time.

I can already see it. Hour long video essays titled something like “How Tokyo Mirage Sessions Changed My Life”

[@Chelaxim]

@@MintJoyPictures it's funny how the Wii U was accused of playing it too safe with all of its franchises yet the two jrpgs on the Wii U were pretty much said I don't give a crap about what your expectations of me are I'm going to do what I want.

[@MintJoyPictures]

Wii U was so underrated it makes me both happy yet sad people realize this today

[@lllldriftllll508]

Way too good to be this underground of a video, publicity will come soon!

[@MintJoyPictures]

We're sure of it 💙

This game is great. As an SMT fan and a Fire Emblem fan i genuinely appreciate the game, and even love it. Tsubasa is a favorite. It helps that Mitsuru Hirata is one of my favorite creatives at Atlus, given hes the one behind part of Strange Journey, and one of the leads of Radiant Historia and Soul Hackers 2. I've noticed that his strongest aspect is always characters and character interactions. It never feels like theres a dead weight character. I hope for a sequel, but i doubt it. Either way, Im glad to see people giving this game its due credits. Is it perfect? No. But not many games are, and theres a passion to this game that seemed like it was brought out to die.

Having known only a little of either series but snatching up any jrpg I could for the Switch, this is one of my favorite titles on that console. I understand that there were clearly issues between censorship and expectations but going in blind like I did, it was a lot of fun.

[@MintJoyPictures]

We really need more who can look past all those issues. It's in the past so I don't see why many can't just like it for what it is you know? xP

Before this video, I was kind of on the fence about whether I should give TMS Encore a try, but you're selling it to me ngl. This is a great review! thorough yet concise, articulate af and entertaining to watch ^^ it's a sham that it doesn't have a lot more views

[@LucasDarkGiygas]

thanks for the video

[@ironbaysqiureg4827]

I've never played a game absolutely love the game felt like it was underrated And also would suggest people to play it but also honestly believed it deserved its fate. It just had the world against it with the wrong place wrong time with a little bit of bad Outside influences

Cool vid

[@MintJoyPictures]

Thanks :3

[@sukaza]

You can see how this game influenced fire emblem engage and persona 5 royal/persona 3 reloaded. I like games like this that break from the norm. Nowadays most games feel cookie cuter. I miss games like xenosaga, shadow hearts, and Lost Odyssey.

[@MintJoyPictures]

AI and Heart from Persona 5 Strikers

19:33 - I’d personally put that on the fact that some genius thought it’d be a good idea to take the censorship from the western releases and make that the default state of the game internationally.
