I’m going to buy Persona 5 Strikers when I can get it for $30, or less. I have Persona 5 (not Royal), and Strikers is a direct sequel to it so I look forward to playing it after I play and finish P5.

I realize that Like a Dragon is its own game separate from the previous Yakuza games, but I still want to play them before playing it.

Instead, I'll probably just get Psychonauts 2 while it's on sale (I'm not expecting a physical version for PS4 to ever happen) and maybe a couple of other games.
It's certainly possible to get just the console in a drop from Target, Walmart, Best Buy, etc. There's a bunch of twitter handles you can follow to help you get notified when these will potentially and then do occur - that's how I helped a friend get one over the Summer.

Eventually I'm going to play a Persona game. As much as I loved SMT Nocture (I know the series are different in some significant ways), you'd think I would have done it by now. I've had 3 and 4 in my backlog forever - physically and digitally, lol. Maybe this year...

Persona 3 and 4 are a couple of my favorite PS2 JRPGs. I have Persona 5, but I haven’t played it yet. I’m going to get Strikers when it’s cheaper since it’s a direct sequel to Persona 5.
