You could probably do a mixture of both.

And you can get Persona 1 and 3 for just 20 bucks on PSN!!!
Heres the link confirming:

-sighs- The times I wish my ps3 can log onto my PSN account.... (yeah I still don't have a wireless router for it yet)
Also I have another blonde moment! Back during the posts about Catherine, when I called the guy Travis, His name is Vincent. I knew it was that or Travis cause I thought of No More Heroes when I look at his character design lol And it was a name for a character I think is badass (aka Vincent Valentine).
More info here(and a release date!): http://www.giantbomb.com/catherine/61-32367/
And news about the Nanako P4 Story, I've thought of the key points in the story, now I got to fill it in with a persona-esque storyline with characters.

Dont worry,everybody has them once in their life haha.

Cant wait to read your story. How do you plan on writing the story? Will it be in the P4 canon?

Well I'm gonna try to make it a novel-type description, but yeah I'm gonna try to make hints here and there about what the original cast is doing nowadays. You know ChieXYosuke, KanjiXNaoto, TeddieXRise, and Yukiko and the MC will be in touch with each other, but that'll be the near end. And I AM planning to make Nanako in a love triangle with two original characters I came up with today in class. I haven't thought of their names yet but I'm gonna make their arcana's The Emperor and The Lovers (male). But I wanna focus on Nanako and her friends as they venture into the story and keep the original cast being "around" but not the main focus, the only one to actually make a recurring appearance is Teddie, since he does say he's gonna watch over the tv world. He'll play the supporter until one of my OC's makes an appearance. But I think the story's gonna focus on one dungeon, a dark forest, and each of the new party members face their shadows as they progress. Idk if i wanna make it a huge story or keep it enclosed but very special.

Well just like "Carefule Nanako-Chan! These are powerful enemies!" Of course he will be against her fighting at all cause of what happened to her as a child during the events of P4. But he will eventually submit to her presence in the tv world and aid her as much as he can.
Speaking of which, I gotta make some character designs and persona sketches too. I'll do that tomorrow in art class. Also I found something interesting while researching Izanami, apparently she afftected many people to awaken to their persona powers than just adachi, namatame, and MC(Souji).
hmmm, interesting! also I can confirm that Nanako's persona is definitely Izanami

Well just because it seems fitting for Nanako's Persona to be Izanami as she will be the MC for the story. Her arcana will change due to her presence in the velvet room. Izanami did all those things for mankinds happieness after all, I'm still trying to set it all up lol.

Thats a great idea. It sounds like you definitely put some thought into the continuity into your story to help explain the differences from the games.

Haha. Thanks^^
wow lucky me! I thought about how many original characters I should put in the story and thought that there were 7 members in your party in Persona 4, excluding the MC. Anyway while i was searching for japanese gods I found out about the 7 lucky Gods, hmmm I'm definitely going to use that, how convenient! I also found out about something that'll make a new antagonist in the story but'll be very important to the story.

I've played it but haven't beaten it quite yet. I got far the first time and my mem stick had to get re-formatted and start ALL over again!
I'm only going to play again just to finish the Female MC story.

Thats what I wanted to ask about. Is the female MC's story any different than the males?

Well the main storylines are both the same. Like plot points and such. But yeah the Female storyline has more to offer. The Male MC storyline is basically the same thing as "The Journey" In FES. And if you don't mind me saying    If you complete Shinjiro Aragaki's Social Link before the events where he is shot and dies right there, before you choose to end the game you overhear a student who says he checked out at the hospital.
And only in the Female storyline you can meet and talk to a younger Yukiko while she's on a field trip.

Oh wow! I thought that

 he died. I guess not then.

Or does that only happen when you max out his S.Link in the male MC story?

nope only in the female MC story can you get him, akihiko, junpei, ken, Ryoji, as social links in her story. Everything else is pretty much the same with the other links like school friends and the female members of your party. You don't get a Koromaru social link but you can do events with him if you're at a certain social link level with Shinjiro I believe.
