Playing through P4, Shuffle Time is easily the worst part of the experience. Penalty cards make certain hands unplayable, you can randomly get the "Match 2" or "Slot" versions which guarantee you will get nothing, and when the cards spin really fast its almost as if the game actually tries to find the Penalty Card in the deck.

How much do we know about this little minigame? Are there tables of data that can be edited to say, replace all penalty cards with blanks? Remove the slot and match 2 entirely? Im sure im not the first person to want to patch this annoying system out of existence.

I agree Shuffle Time sucks in P4 Vanilla. It´s worse than P3:FES, which is an older game

I would gladly accept anything that makes it more fair, overall better

so, please. Anyone, accept this request

There are a few Pnach codes for Persona 4 with PCSX2.

// Always Shuffle Time
patch=1,EE,2029c3d8,word,00000000

// Always 6 cards during Shuffle Time
patch=1,EE,201f3f7c,word,24130006

// Shuffle Time Persona has no Level Limit
patch=1,EE,201F3C5C,word,00000000

//Arcana chance always upright
patch=1,EE,20382DE4,extended,10000004
patch=1,EE,20382AE0,extended,10000004

//Mainly Persona cards during shuffle time
patch=1,EE,2036FCC4,extended,24170004

I've looked pretty hard and couldn't straight up find a code to disable Shuffle Time, sorry.

No worries, that´ll do. It already gets rid of the stupid downright arcana chances. So I'm fine with it.

sure, not as good as P4G. But if that´s the best we can get, then okay. Thanks
