Well a topic about it had to be made eventually...
http://www.siliconera.com/2008/09/19/new-devil-summoner-clip-has-a-glimpse-of-raidou-in-smt-nocturne/
Another trailer with a little more explaining what is going on in the sequel.
They also mentioned,which was stated a while back during the confirmation of the sequel,that Raidou would be thrown in Nocturne?
Well it seems it is true in that clip towards the end,and the box cover art as well.
Basically,they're remaking Nocturne just for Raidou added in there?
Honestly,I don't have a problem playing Nocturne all over again...but if Raidou's role is as small as it was with Dante's,I'd rather stick to clips on youtube just so I can see what Raidou does.

Raidou in Nocturne  Well, that sounds interesting, I also reado something about "Nocturne" on the first scans of the game but I didn't pay it too much of attention. Anyway! That plushie looks awesome!! 
But Wait! Does the Nocturne topic would be a new game? or an extra of the Devil Summoner? That front cover just look f*cking great!! I don't care what it is, I don't even care how much it will cost, I WANT IT!!

Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs. King Abaddon looks great although it was overshadowed by that last few seconds in that trailer. Nocturne Maniax Chronicles Edition GREAT Nocturne was my favorite SMT game released for the PS2 and having added gameplay and scenes is very much welcome... Although will this be slated for a NA release? But alas both games are keeping me excited!!!
 CLOSE THE WORLD OP EN THE NEXT Deaths vastness holds no peace.
I come at the end of the long road--neither human nor devil....
All bends to my will.

I guess it would be some kind of "FES" style, cause in the cover you can see the "Devil Summoner Kuzunoha Raidou Vs. King Abaddon PLUS"
 
Damn, I can't wait!! >_<

Haven't read the thread yet, but is there any clue yet why on earth the Nocturne like character is on the "Plus" graphic?

I really love how Raidou can now use battle abilities and some kind of a dash. It looks this game will have much more action than the previous one.

I think I remember seeing in a trailer Raidou can use magic and summon up to 2 devils now.

Awesome.Just watched the clip from the link Emilio showed.
It also seems Raidou has a voice now....atleast when he is attacking.I don't think he said Anything in the last game.
But I also like the combo attack he does as well.It definately shows some improvement.

Apparently the 'Plus' edition comes with an extra: Shin Megami Tensei III Nocturne Maniacs Chronicle Edition. The regular version comes with a soundtrack CD. The author neglects to mention what the 'Nocturne Maniacs Chronicle Edition' is exactly...
The rumor on most Japanese blogs is that it's a version of Maniacs where Raidou replaces Dante.

So in other words, it probaly be SMT Nocturne Maniax, the whole game, but instead of Dante, Raidou? Sounds good.

If it's reasonable to import I might buy that set... since I don't have a Nocturne, and Maniax sounds good, but Dante sounds Dun Dun Dumb

I never got to try out Nocturne, and from what everyone's been saying, it's a pure masterpiece, and I think this is the best time to pre-order that masterpiece.

Actually,having Dante in Nocturne wasn't that bad really. I haven't heard much complaining from those who have played it and have him in their party,you either have him join or just leave him;You don't Have to have him as your demon team. However,I did,and it was fun.
In fact,I'm glad he was in there...if he wasn't in Nocturne,I wouldn't have ever been introduced to the Megaten Universe.
I also get the feeling the same can be said for new fans that haven't played the older ones.
Thank you,Dante <3
So basically Raidou is in place of Dante? Well as I've said before,as long as Raidou has more of a role than Dante did,then I wouldn't mind giving it a try...I'm not trying to imply that Raidou take up half the story of Nocturne's or anything.I know Dante's place in the story was small,and it didn't have that big effect on the story...which I'm fine with. I really don't know what I would want to see Raidou do in the story...I just hope it's interesting,not to mention the battle between the two is what I'm looking forward to.

I think maybe it's a ploy for the people who thought the cross-promotion was in poor taste. So there is a version of Maniax less tainted. It seems practical. The question for me is, would this be more like two games for the price of one? Or a game with a mutant twin growing from it's abdomen
