A while back, Persona 4 producer Katsura Hashino revealed that the team responsible for that title split in two, with each branch working on unique games. Hashino touched upon this in the final post at the Persona 3 Portable creator's Blog today.
Hashino explained that one of the teams worked on Persona 3 Portable. He said that next year, he'll have to get to work with this team on a new project.
The other team is working on an original new game which is nearing completion. He expects this to be an extremely interesting game.
Hashino also made a vague reference to what could be an even bigger title. Starting next year, the two development lines will gradually come together and get to work on "that," he said. The question is what "that" refers to. Persona 5 perhaps?

If neither of those games are "Shin Megami Tensei 4", or something else new and interesting...? Then unfortunately, I can only care but so much. Bit tired of Persona atm, and want a return to the "real" Megaten.
Strange Journey should hopefully be the start of that...

Don't think it's Persona 5 though. He mentioned it's an original one which is near completion and it's a product he can't really recommended for everyone, though he thinks it's pretty interesting. Perhaps this one is a new IP?

SMT IV is what I'm hoping for too. Though this gave me the impression of it being Persona 4 Portable...God forbid.
