Following Sonic movie success, Sega teases Persona and Yakuza adaptations | VGC - eviltoast

“Right now, there are two big IPs other than Sonic,” Utsumi said. “One is Persona. We are introducing two Personas this year. And also, our Yakuza title. I mean, Yakuza is really unique, but that big one is also coming next year too, so be ready [for Like a Dragon: Infinite Wealth]. “But also, as I say, we are trying to be in a lot of different kinds of businesses, additional areas, like Roblox and movies. All these IPs can be somewhere else other than games soon.”

Personally, I want a live action Persona 4 movie, still set in Japanese countryside, and with almost entire Japanese casts, with only one exception, the MC is Chris Pratt, but now he quips non-stop in Brooklyn accent.

Similarly, I want a Yakuza live action, with Kiryu as the main protagonist, but of course played by Chris Pratt again, with Brooklyn accent.

I just wanna watch the world burns and explodes and implodes into a black hole.

    I genuinely like the Sonic movies more than Mario. Ben Schwartz did a good job voicing Sonic, the jokes in the movies made me chuckle.

    I think the Mario movie played it a little too safe. It’s not bad, but I barely remember anything about it.
