By tuning into the television on Sundays, you’re able to purchase a number of rare or unique items, delivered directly to your dorm room. To help you plan your schedule, here’s Tanaka’s Amazing Commodities offerings for the duration of P3P.

This guide will contain light spoilers for the plot of Persona 3 Portable.

What Is Tanaka's Amazing Commodities?

Beginning on 5/3 in Persona 3 Portable, you're able to watch the TV in your bedroom on Sunday mornings to order a pre-selected handful of products from your television.

Presented by the always-shady President Tanaka and operating completely separate from his social link, the program will feature different products each week there isn't a story scene that keeps you from having free time on Sundays.

Deciding to shop from Tanaka's Amazing Commodities (or not to) will not influence your relationship with President Tanaka.

The program has items that can't be found elsewhere, as well as a wide selection of skill cards, gemstones, and gear.

When you order from the show, your package will be delivered right to your bedroom later in the week, with the day dependent on whether something is happening in the story.

The program a fairly reliable way to find rare gemstones that may be tough to come across naturally in Tartarus for use at Shinshoudo Antiques.

If you receive a phone call from a social link on Sunday morning and accept the invitation to hang out, you will leave the dorm immediately and are therefore unable to order from the program on that day.
