A spirit appears in front of him and asks him his name.
As he proceeds further, he meets a man who is hanging on a cross, another one who is being tormented by a demon, and a mysterious young woman who is bathing in a pool. "Wake up!" - the voice of his mother cuts through the dream.
The young man wakes up and checks his computer.
Suddenly, a message arrives: the world is headed towards destruction.
Only he who can summon demons through a virtual space will be able to prevent a disaster.
Unable to understand what that means, the young man goes outside and finds out a murder has occurred in the nearby park.
The district must be cut off from the rest of the city until the murderer is found.
As the young man acquires a device that allows him to communicate with demons, he begins to realize that his role in the upcoming events may be greater than he thought.
A follow-up to the first two Megami Tensei games, Shin Megami Tensei is a first-person RPG set in modern-day and post-apocalyptic Tokyo.
The hero of the game can summon demons, who consume a mysterious energy called Magnetite, which can be obtained from battles.
The summoned demon joins the party and is then fully controllable by the player.
The active party can include up to six characters: the hero, the heroine, and four slots usually reserved for the demons, though other human characters might also join.
There is a wide variety of demons in the game, most of which are taken from real-world mythologies.
The demons have levels, individual statistics, spells, special abilities, etc.
Enemy encounters are random, and the first-person combat is turn-based.
During combat, human characters can use swords or guns; the heroine is also able to learn and cast magic spells.
Unlike most other Japanese RPGs, the game allows the player to r
About Nintendo Wii U
The Wii U (2012) was commercially Nintendo's least successful home console, hampered by market confusion over whether the GamePad tablet controller was a new device or a Wii accessory. Its low sales mean smaller overall print runs across the board, and several first-party and indie darlings have already become noticeably pricier than their commercial performance would suggest, since there are simply fewer copies in circulation.
Gamevaro tracks Shin Megami Tensei for Nintendo Wii U with separate market values for loose, complete-in-box (CIB) and factory-sealed copies, sourced from real eBay sales. Prices also vary by region — PAL, NTSC-U and NTSC-J releases of the same game often sell for different amounts due to print run sizes and regional collector demand.
Adding Shin Megami Tensei to a Gamevaro collection takes seconds — search by title or scan the box barcode, and the app fills in cover art, release details and current pricing automatically. This WIU release dates back to 1992.

Rarity & condition
No market sales have been tracked yet for Shin Megami Tensei — this could mean it rarely changes hands, or simply that Gamevaro hasn't recorded a sale for it yet. Be the first to add it to your collection.
Complete-in-box (CIB) copies typically command a premium over loose cartridges/discs because the original box and manual are more fragile and get discarded or damaged over time — fewer complete sets survive.
