Where did you buy your copy.

[Draycos]

I can't seem to find persona 3 or fes in stores.

[thealchemistoftime]

best buy they had a decent amount and it was 24.99

[Sayckeone]

GameStop for P3. Amazon for FES.

[John Freeman]

GameStop for P3. Amazon for FES.
Amazon? I've managed to see FES at Wal-Mart. That game is really widely available; I can't imagine why people are having trouble finding it. Best Buy, GameStop, all of these places have it for 30 bucks.

[Juanblue85]

I got two original P3 at Gamestop and Also got FES there as well. one of my original P3 is in mint condition with a mint condition Double Jump Guide.

With Amazon, it qualifies for free shipping, and you don't have to pay tax. Also, if you've been on the Atlus e-mail newsletter for a while, they sent out a $5 Amazon coupon a few months ago.

I am aware that it is available at Amazon, but you shouldn't have to resort to that when you can literally go to nearly any shop that sells video games and find it.

[Sayckeone]

Who said that I resorted to that? Atlus has a deal with Amazon where they get a larger cut. That's why I got it through Amazon.

[Raidou11]

I never bought P3, since it was sold used for like 50 bucks. :shock: A week later, P3 FES was released and was sold for new, just 30 bucks. Jeez..

[John Freeman]

Yeah, I noticed, what with the coupon. I was just too lazy to type about it.

Does amazon give ATLUS monies for anything I buy through their site, if I follow the ATLUS link to amazon?

If so, I will use it as a general launch pad into all the stuff I buy from amazon.

[Chronis]

^^yes

[tonberry]

I bought FES from Fry's since they had a deal and it was only $25. I usually buy my other games from Amazon though unless I really want it right away. Can't beat free shipping and no tax, and I also get points for my Amazon card.

[eskobar]

You are very lucky to be in the United States ... In my city you could only get the game from one official dealer and 3 or 4 dealers in the black market :(

One week after the release of P3 the game costed $750 pesos ... (75 usd) ... and the cheapest P3 you could find was $ 600 pesos but it was pretty common to buy it at $850 pesos :(

Even if Monterrey is the second largest city in Mexico we are waiting for decent game distibution in our country.

Sometimes is easier for me to drive 2 hours to Mc Allen or Laredo in Texas to buy games :D

[Skyrocket]

Got both at the Game Stop about 10 minutes from my house.

[Zed]

Pre-ordered from eStarland.

[sushigrlOOk]

Gamestop, i had the last copy before they were in stock again.

[CSXLoser]

both at gamestop.

[Saishu]

Got both versions at GameStop as well.

I saw FES at Sears today.

[Divals]

I was afraid it'd sell out and/or be uber rare, so I preordered it at Gamestop.

Then that Gamestop ended up having like five copies on the shelf for the next several months. Not that I'm complaining, $30 for a Super Awesome game like FES is good no matter how you slice it.

[Sakubo]

I bought my persona 3 late so I got it from Amazon market place. FES I just Ordered from Amazon.

[jeffx]

in one of El Paso TX's multiple gamestops

[Futomimi]

^ you live in el paso?





sorry.

[punkrocker_271]

I picked my copy of Fes at sears with a gift card I got for my birthday (WTF would I need from Sears any way?)

[Azriel Crusnik]

Gamestop pre-order.

[Voodoo]

Jesus Christ punk resize that ####

[punkrocker_271]

Sry didn't realize the size

[The_Other_Self]

I got mine in A local game shop (GForce)
Though I've seen copies on amazon a lot.

On the UK site Though.....they're around £30 ($60?)

[punkrocker_271]

On the UK site Though.....they're around £30 ($60?)
About $56 but I only paid 40 USD on Sears.com

[Fortinbras]

Got Persona 3 in Gamestop for 40 euro.
Now waiting for FES on the 17th of October! :D

[Maiku_Kamiyama]

I picked P3 at an EB Games, for like 15 bucks out of the bargin bin of all places, brand new. And FES, i got off the black market, which was in the middle of the ocean, on the back of a fish big enough to carry ontario XD

[jeffx]

^ Moar Canadians! At this rate we'll dominate the Atlus forums and they'll finally cave in to our demands.

[Maiku_Kamiyama]

YES!! Our demands of more maple syrup, and the same release date as the americans. Making us wait a WHOLE EXTRA DAY for Persona 4 D:

[Texcap]

I purchased it only a couple of weeks ago off of Amazon after receiving a couple of valuable coupons from another purchase. I really lucked out as I got Persona 3 FES for ~ $18 and pre-ordered Persona 4 for only $14.99 after redeeming the more valuable of the two!

I've been itching to try the Persona series for a good while, and given the price after redeeming the coupons, I couldn't pass it up the chance to finally do so. I fired Persona 3 up for the first time tonight (after finals finally ended) and played for about 2 hours. I can tell I'm in for good times! My only problem now will be the urge to pop in Persona 4 when it arrives, but I'm going to try and do my best to enjoy P3 first.

[Las Lobos]

Local game store, last copy to. I was so happy. 40 mulla brand new.

(FES holler back)

[superbeast1370]

gamestop.com for P3 and Amazon for FES (my 3rd and 4th SMT games)

[FangzV]

I got my copy of Persona 3 FES at my local GameStop on the last day of my Summer break.

I got P4 at that same store.


If you're looking for the game, I'd suggest like, eBay or something if it's not in stores.

[Sakubo]

I bought p3 from amazon market place and FES from amazon. P4 I also got from amazon. Notice a trend here ....

[BaizDaza]

Got my copy at EBgames a while ago.

[RiotJavelinDX]

Believe it or not, K - Mart (They often have hard to find games...)

[James Fiend]

I originally bought FES At Gamestop. I've ordered two of the weird limited edition Amazon FES games for both of my sisters for the Mass of Christ (economy be damned).

[Kain Mare]

I bought both copies at GameStop.
On my recent trip to GameCrazy (look in general discussion), I came across a new copy of P3, not Fes. It was priced at 29.99. I was tempted to purchase it and keep it as a collector's item and eventually resell it on eBay, but decided against it.

[Dead Flag Blues]

I picked mine up on launchday at Gamestop (the original CE edition that is) I still haven't gotten a chance to pick up FES, and I just got the chance to start the version I have. Shows how much time I have to game nowadays :frown:

[massaker]

I just got FES yesterday, I was surprised to see it. I got both P3 and FES at JB Hi-Fi.

[zeigler]

gamestop for FES

[GFSummoner]

P3: I got it a rather slightly beap up copy of the game at a discount price, new at the AAFES (miltary department store).

P3-FES: Pre-order at Gamestop.

[Fear Toxin]

I just got the Persona 3 FES Limited Edition deal from amazon a couple days ago. I started playing it last night and so far I'm liking it. ;)

[dragonlife29]

Both pre-ordered at the same GameStop and picked up ASAP.

[Raidou89]

Got it for Christmas

[Shhteve]

I was working at a GameStop during P3's initial release so I reserved a copy for myself.

For P4, however, I got it off Amazon.

[Oblivion Lotus]

Amazon. It was crazy cheap... And just what's wrong with ordering things online? What with my backlog I can certainly afford to wait... XD

[tokoshi_x]

Got Persona 3 around when it first came out at Gamestop. I knew nothing of SMT or Persona 3 nor even heard about it. I then just read an article about it in a magazine and became instantly interested. It was a good thing it happened when the game came out too.

P3:FES I picked that up at Gamestop and I still see new copies in stock. P4 I pre-ordered at Gamestop also, mostly for the artbook.

[daemons8]

FUTURE SHOP!!! Last copy was just sitting there (FES). At Christmas time, did you check amazon.com? they were selling P3 FES for $30-$40? with the soundtrack and artbook.

[Auden]

amazon.com all the way ^_^. local stores here where i live [guatemala] don' t usually bring a lot of games, so i get them thru amazon. never had any complaints, returns or issues about. always a clean sweep ^_^

[Tatsuya]

GameStop for P3. Amazon for FES.

This basically, they said fes wasn't in the computer when i went to reserve it, so i got it off amazon and didn't look back.

[Marnic]

not sure where you live, but the internet is always the best solution.
Just check some video game store on the net and they'll be sure to have it.

[Ark]

Walked into Gamestop back in June and inquired about it. They had the disc in the back room, but the empty case was on display. Hell, I still saw a copy of FES NEW a week ago at my local Gamestop.

[Buffel]

Amazon doesn't deliver to my country anymore. :( So I ended up ordering my copy of P3FES through cduniverse.

I was luckier with P4, though, since one of my friends came to visit from the USA and bought a copy for me.

[Daroki]

GameStop for P3. Amazon for FES.

This basically, they said fes wasn't in the computer when i went to reserve it, so i got it off amazon and didn't look back.

Preordered SMT: DDS, SMT: DDS2, SMT: P3, SMT: P3: FES, and SMT: P4 from Gamestop. I had the "couldn't find it in the system" issue as well because they were looking for Persona instead of Shin...

[Arlyss]

Got my P3:FES at Best Buy, there or Amazon probably best bets

[ufofreek]

Gamestop

[Demonis]

First FES copy : Gamestop, new.
Second FES Copy w/artbook (no CD): Amazon (unopened)
Third copy Vanilla: Traded for Lock's Quest DS and $15 for P3, Artbook, CD.

[Lonelyness21]

I got both, new at Gamestop a coupleof days ago.....But tehy were the last ones they had....so yeah its hard...

[Fatney]

It was great getting my copy. As I live in Europe, we got it a whole year later than you Americans :( So, I was excited when I heard a release date for it here. The release day, a friend and I searched a thousand stores to secure our copies, but no one had ever heard of it. And said they couldn't find it in their future release lists either...

So I found it on a British site, play.com, and was thrilled that I finally found a copy. I waited one week for it to arrive... It was a great saturday. I remember how I found it laying on the table in the hallway after I woke up.

Some weeks later, me and some friends were browsing this game store, then we suddenly found ONE copy of Persona 3 hidden between some PS2 games. Even though we had asked there earlier if they would ever get it. I laughed.

[BRASSKNUCKLES]

best buy they had a decent amount and it was 24.99

24.99!!! lucky mine was like 30 or 50 cant remeber hehe anyways to the persona who made this thread it is VERY hard to find either copies i got mine aty EB games and there was only one in...try ebay thats the only place i think you could actually find it without a hastle...

[MileyWinters]

I wrote the date of the Release into one of my school books and when the day arrived, I gave my dad 40Dollars and ordered him to get his lazy ass outta his office chair and get me a copy xDDD

[vxicepickxv]

I bought my copy of Persona 3 at the base exchange in Misawa Japan, and I bought my copy of FES at Sears.

[dungeon_man]

P3 @ Amazon.com
P3F @ GameStop

P3F is the last game I ever pre-ordered from GameStop. I see no point in using them when I typically save several dollars buying at Amazon, plus Atlus gets a bigger cut. I live in a small town, so no other retailers generally carry Atlus stuff.

[Emilio Morales]

P3: An uncle of mine who went to the US bought it there.
P3 FES: Amazon.
P4: Amazon.

[Fenix747]

My local Game Crazy had FES for like $30

[Vicious1915]

GameStop for P3. Amazon for FES.

Same here.

[Zacewing]

Microplay.

[IceCold_Assassin]

Amazon for P3FES and P4...and Devil Summoner 2.

[Door]

I got my copies of Persona 3 & FES back when they came out. At Gamestop.com

[Alucrid]

I picked mine up the first day they came out at Gamestop. I learned my lesson from not getting previous SMT titles, then paying a ton for them.

[Nephlabobo]

Persona 3 for Xmas.

Persona 3 FES my parents bought for me for Easter while they were traveling in the States.

Except for Persona 4 and Devil Summoner 2, I've gotten all my SMT games for Xmas.

[Sheumin]

Hnn? My uncle got FES at Gamestop. For me, anyway.

[heyitskeith]

I picked my copy of Fes at sears with a gift card I got for my birthday (WTF would I need from Sears any way?)

Didn't you know? Sears is the new Gamestop these days.

I got my copy of FES at gamestop (unfortunately)

[AnimeChixRHawt]

Couldn't find a new p3 anywhere got p3 fes at game stop for 14.99 new, bought p4 at same time for 39.99 this was like 2 months ago.

[ICanBeTheHero]

I bought the last copy of Persona 3 FES from the local GameStop for 19.99 new, yesterday. I hope to buy Persona 4 soon.

[AnimeChixRHawt]

I bought the last copy of Persona 3 FES from the local GameStop for 19.99 new, yesterday. I hope to buy Persona 4 soon.

Is a must buy if you enjoyed or even just like p3 ;)

and if you still have not finished p3 and you arent going to for awhile they will have excellent xmas deals at gamespot normally

[Mellusia]

I bought Persona 3 with the soundtrack and artbook from a game stall I frequent at the flea market and I bought P3:FES (a month later after I bought P3 wouldn't you know? -_-) from an EB Games store a small distance from my place on release day (it was on a Friday I think, a few days after it was released in U.S.A.)

[Soushi_Grapple]

Man, try finding a disc only copy in good condition. Seems every freaking copy is sealed no matter where I go. I don't want to shell out an extra $10 for stuff I don't need. >> My old PS2 destroyed my FES disc. ;__; I don't really care as much, but my gf loves the game so, it kinda sucks. ><; I guess I'll go get the copy at Gamestop thats been sitting there for 6 months. lol

[mental404error]

Sears, minus a few bucks because of connections.

[kyuusei]

Got FES - game only, no extra stuff because I was cheap - at EBGames here in Canada as soon as it came out.

[Reduction]

There's lot of way to buy em'....

[Nephlabobo]

Got the first version for Xmas and the Fes version as an Easter present when my parents vacationed in the U.S.

[djmdma02]

Ebay, Ebay, Gamestop, Amazon

[corazonnihilista]

got that rigth i live there to took me six weeks to get it and that game planet didnt hadit

[Hanamura Yousuke]

I originally rented from Gamefly, but when FES came out I immediatly rushed to GameStop.

[Soushi_Grapple]

Finally broke down (sold my extra manual, I still have an insert if anyone needs it) and just snagged a new one from Gamestop for $15 a few days ago. ;)

[Gwendolyn]

Amazon.com, during their Black Friday sale.

[Red]

I got one at play-asia.com for $35, but that's because I wasn't in the states at the time.

[Kordero]

well, my frits copy was Persona 3 pack... when was out in US, but in my country the cost of shipping, tax, etc... got a little high, but i didnt mind, in a local store called Siman, but after a month someone enter in my department and stoled all my consoles, games and anime videos T_T all original! waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa, later i got it again but a lower cost and is FES

[hellbiker]

i maneged to get mine at Meijer for 19.99 (FES) idk how... but they had it. Lansing, Michigan
