Actually no you are both wrong on both accounts.PS3 -just- started having more JRPGs than Wii does, and that's only because the Wii is 'dying' and for no other reason.That doesn't change the fact that it still has the best jRPGs of this generation.An generally Wii has more jgaming quantity than any of the other two.As for 3DS, it barely has any western games, but it has tons of japanese games already (over 100), having also most japanese big name franchises on board,or slated to be released this year (for example, I already have 14 big name jgames for it,while having no money to buy another 5 ones, and that's only during it's first 16 months).As for jRPGs specifically, I've been 'recording' them all since the last generation, and here they are in this thread I made -without- including anything announced during the last 2-3 months (don't mind the release dates, I haven't updated some of them too). You can clearly see why PSVita can't hold up to 3DS in that area,but it -still- aquires them at a faster rate than any of the 2 HD consoles did, even though it's not selling:

I'll be honest that's an impressive list.

But you're not answering my question, and said I said something wrong when I didn't.

This was in your original post

So they moved to portables, which are Jgaming's saving grace, besides Wii.That's why the 3DS tops sales over there by a wide margin.It has no real "western support".

You're including the Wii in Jgaming's saving grace, but you didn't mention the PS3, which I asked you about here:

Another question, what are the big 3rd party RPGs on Wii apart from Dragon Quest X and some FF spin-offs? I see more big j-rpgs on the PS3 honestly.

And I wasn't so far off. In your list, there are almost 15 FF/DQ/HM/Pokemon spin-offs.

FF Fables, Crystal Defenders R1/R2, FFCC 1/2/3/4, HM 1/2/3, PMD 1/2/3

DQ Anniversary collection, DQ Monsters, DQ Swords

The PS3 collection is not only bigger, but has much more renouned entries, much more content-rich entries.

 

As for 3DS against Sony's offerings, I said

But in that case, why did we and are we seeing most j-centric games on PSP/Vita? Why is Nintendo's [3DS] console not getting them?

You can argue that the PSP offerings are dwindling. I don't know since I don't have a visual graph of # of PSP j games over time. But I still see lots of PSP games in the media create threads, and games like Persona 4 releasing on the Vita. I was just wondering why the 3DS wasn't getting them too.

Oni says the creators didn't think it was powerful enough, but I wouldn't buy that for a second, the 3DS is almost as powerful as a Wii, which is much further than a PS2.

I was asking you because you seemed knowledgeable. Just use your knowledge to actually answer my Qtns if you can.
