This game should be illegal because of how addicting it is if part five is any better than this signed me up I’m yours! Great game (I just love the fusion of demons) Think Adult Pokémon and what more than that needs to be said!!!!!

Gameplay itself looks and feels awesome. I'm a bit disappointed that cutscenes where not remade, as it was still a 4:3 pixelated video. So far the voices are pretty good, I'm switching between the Japanese and English. I just feel like it needs touching up, like menu words should be spelt out, but overall a great remaster.

SMT3 is a classic and to finally have it portable is amazing. Just know going in that some accessibility options are free DLC (Not on the cart). Once you know that, anyone can experience this masterpiece of JRPG goodness.

Worthy Update

This is a good remaster of a classic game. I'm docking it one star for not having any preorder bonuses for the physical edition. The differences between this and the original are negligible, really. People are whining about the compressed soundtrack and the fact it's running at 30fps instead of 60, but those are technical details that are really not important. I haven't noticed a difference and I have the original PS2 version as well. The main difference is the load times--there essentially are none on the Switch version. Dante from DMC is now a DLC character, and his place from the PS2 version is taken by Raidou Kuzunoha from the Devil Summoner spinoff series. I think that's a nice change of pace, and since I have the version with Dante in it (PS2), I'm not bothering to get the DLC package with Dante. Everything else is pretty much the same (okay they used a different font in the HD remaster, NBD), including the unholy difficulty level. They threw in a 'Merciful' difficulty for this for those who just want to enjoy the story. Masochists and gluttons for punishment should play Hard mode. Only reason I'm not having issues on Normal is because I've played this game before.
If you have a working PS2, are not a rabid SMT fan, and have a copy of this for that, there's no reason to run out and get it. Otherwise, this is a good RPG and worth the money they're charging.

I've been looking forward to a remaster of this game for years and it works great. The newly added voice acting is phenomenal and the updated graphics are most notable playing in docked mode. There are minor frame-rate drops at times during fusion or the fiend cut-scenes, but otherwise its a 10/10 experience.

While the game still has some of the flaws present in it's original release, its fantastic seeing the work done to bring this classic to more modern standards. If you're a JRPG fan, you should definitely be giving this title a look.

So awesome to see this ps2 classic on a modern portable system. For long time SMT fans you know what you’re getting into, anyone else look forward to a hard hitting JRPG.

Stellar game for its time even great to this day, ported over to the switch. My only complaint is that the cutscenes are still in the older aspect ratio. Other than that this is one of the best JRPGS ever on the Switch.

A classic jrpg that you can play on a modern system. Fun and tough jrpg with a Pokémon like style but with mature demonic themes. It could of been a better port the music is compressed the dlc is a rip off but the new voice acting and
upscaled graphics is a plus and some gameplay improvements. Good buy for 39.99 not so much for 49.99

Keeping this one sealed for my collection, as Shin Megami games tend to hold value well historically!

Couple things to note. Dante from DMC 2 is going to be DLC. Not sure why he wasnt added but if you played the PS2 NA version do know you will need to shell out $10 for him. Great surprise to this game is that there is now voice acting. I had no idea upon playing but its great. Other than that its the exact game as the PS2 version with up res of the game. UI seems to be the original res as the PS2 but its not a distraction

I am so glad this game got a HD Remaster. I had a blast playing it waaaaay back during the PS2 days and it still holds up. If you are a fan of JRPGs pick it up! Cool art style and has that awesome PS2 era JRPG feel!
The entire Shin Megami Tensei line of games are worth playing. If you enjoy this check out the mainline series and also the other ones such as Digital Devil Saga!

Very good game and a nice classic from the ps2 era. Great jrpg but the port and remastering not so much. Compressed music and frame rate issues keeps this at 4 stars.

Truthfully I haven't played much of this remaster. I got it to add to the collection based on my fond memories of the original release. Still solid game.
