Persona 4 Golden is an update of the critically acclaimed PlayStation 2 role-playing game. New additions and changes have been made exclusively for the PlayStation Vita.
P4G To Have New VA For Teddie and Chie
While it shouldn't be a surprise given their new VAs in Arena, the entirety of Persona 4 Golden will also feature new VAs for these two characters. All their lines were rerecorded to maintain consistency given there will be about 40% additional lines in Golden over the vanilla version.
Atlus USA did mention that: “That said, it’s important fans don’t base their impressions on the [Persona 4: Arena] tutorial video.”
This does seem to mean "Aha is this our chance?" will be a thing of the past.
LONG LIVE CHIE
Jabbari right, the actors probably improve after we first heard them so I'm willing to accept the new voices for Teddie and Chie.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO
HHHHIIIIIISSSSSSSSS!!!
In all seriousness it's not a big deal though I would prefer if Chie's original VA returned even though a lot of people thought it sounded a little older then it should have. I didn't get that impression but that's beside the point.
Well, that kills just about any hype I had for the game. The Teddie in the arena video sounded like a cheap imitation without any of the charm.
Good thing I don't give a shit about Chie. As long as Yukiko has the same voice then all is right in the world.
Somewhat unrelated but what's the word on the soundtrack? I know that they're adding some new tracks but getting some of the remixed versions of the original tracks would be pretty fucking dapper if I say so myself.
Wait, why is Teddie getting a different voice? Is Dave Wittenberg too busy with Naruto or whatever to record some new lines?
This sucks. Even though Chie sounded like a middle aged woman at times, she grew on me as one of my favorite characters, and her "voice" reminds me of that fact. Yeah kind of bummed at this news. It always sucks to go back and re-record main characters that have a lot of lines and have special performances that you remember from the original game. But here is hoping that the new peeps bring their thunder stick to the performance and don't ruin a good thing. Though if anyone can recreate the magic, it's probably Atlus.
Have they said at all if they are going to do any voice-over stuff for the social links as part of this revamped and new dialog that they are adding to Golden?

they should just put those remixes in the game.
That heaven remix is so good
I'm okay with any and all changes as long as they're not astonishingly bad, I want to hear their take on the characters in length.
@Animasta: Yeah a simple ability to switch between the original and remix in the options would be really nice. I doubt it would happen but a man can dream. The soundtrack for that game is one of my favourites ever.
not happy about the change in Chie's VA, and only a little sad about Teddie's VA being different. I'll have hope that they will be better then what they were in the P4A tutorial video, but something tells me that I'll probably be moving on to Kanji or Naoto for my party members.
Well, yeah, I've probably said this before. Chies voice kinda grew on me, her VA wasn't spotless, but there was a personality in the voice and delivery that I kinda connect the character with now. I'm sure that the new VA will do a good job, it's just too bad that the old VA is kinda etched into my mind as the real Chie.
And about Teddie... Damn... From what I've heard I feel like I'm gonna mute everytime he says a line. Hopefully... It'll be ok. Atleast not making your ears bleed that is.
Remember how you could switch up dungeon music in The Answer for P3 FES? So there is some precedent out there.@Animasta: Yeah a simple ability to switch between the original and remix in the options would be really nice. I doubt it would happen but a man can dream. The soundtrack for that game is one of my favourites ever.

Well in P3P if you played the male protagonist it'll play the original soundtrack whereas playing a female character played the new tracks so it's not a surprise if they do give the option this time around. I don't want to be too optimistic though. No real biggie really since I'm happy enough the soundtracks I've got...not to mention the art books and drama CDs that I don't even understand without a script. BUT WHATEVER MORE PERSONA THE BETTER.

That was my reaction to that quote too. Are they fully admitting that their voice acting is bad in that tutorial video?
Teddie's gone? Well, that just fucking sucks.
That said, it'll probably be fine as long as the new guy doesn't try too hard to copy him exactly.

Now I'm extra not going to buy it.
Exactly how I feel. I became too attatched to the voices of my 2 favorite characters. I'll just play my ps2 version again.

NO
WHY?!
NO
Not Chie, why couldn't it be Yukiko?
Anger and bargaining will soon lead to acceptance. The stages of grief will pass.
I was already there ... I can live with Chie's fate - and the new VA is pretty good, too. But ... now Teddie will be replaced as well?
Oh, the anger! :/
On the other hand: Jesus! 40% more voiced content? Yay!
If new Teddie sounds anything like in the Arena video, I will continue judging. Don't try to tell me to be calm. I'll kill you!
