I really thought SMTxFE would be the game that made people pay attention to and appreciate the series for doing a lot of things Persona doesn't.

I guess it's officially "announce all the poo poo we don't wanna talk about at E3!" season - new Pokemon Mystery Dungeon!

quote:

BELLEVUE, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The Pokémon Company International and Nintendo announced today the upcoming release of the Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon game for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, the latest installment of the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series that has sold more than 13 million units worldwide. Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon will be available in North America in winter 2015.

Players can look forward to even greater, randomly created dungeons that change each time they enter. In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, players will battle alongside Legendary and Mythical Pokémon to save the world in a sweeping tale of adventure and mystery.

EDIT: EU PR says "early 2016".
