Yeah, Xenoblade is one of the best ever and the Last Story is pretty good. I don't mind the action/rpgs as long as they're as good as Mass Effect.
Will next gen be better for JRPG's? | |||
Yes | 37 | 35.24% | |
No | 36 | 34.29% | |
What happened to Square Enix? | 32 | 30.48% | |
Total: | 105 |

Monster Hunter Tri was also an excellent JRPG if you count it as such. (It's an RPG made in Japan, but somehow I think people won't count it because of it's battle system and lack of story focus)

they went and stayed on the handhelds because of the ps3
everything usually sells on the PS home consoles but they didn't with PS3 so what other choice did they have? The PlayStations are the consoles that the japanese devs fall back on if you know what i mean. PS3 was too high though. PS3 is no PS2 because the PS2 launched at $299 and PS3 launched at $599. PS3 could have been just as good as the PS2 but it was just too high priced. The devs made all their games on the handhelds so it was too late when Sony finally got down to a reasonable price years later.
the EXACT issue is ps3 being priced too high because everything you could say that went wrong will all eventually come back to the ps3 costing too damn much
i GUARANTEE the japanese market will do a lot better during the 8th gen if Sony launches the PS4 at $399. It doesn't even matter what the other companies do
what did all these devs say when all these PlayStation known games went multiplat? they were saying sh!t like they want to maximise sales and what not right? now why would they say that? I bet anything that you think of will eventually be brought back to the ps3's high ass price
Sony needs to be atleast remotely affordable($399) from the beginning this time around mainly for the sake of japan
I think Square was going to stumble regardless though
What?
Is this a joke?
PSP and DS alone have more Jrpgs than other gen consoles put together
Plus.....hello?...Wii? oh yeah right, you grew up...
PD: The best home console Jrpg this gen is Arc rise Fantasia

Actually those early 360 games sold pretty good for jrpgs. According to vgchartz Vesperia,The last remnant, Lost odyssey, infinite undiscovery and blue dragon all sold alright. Their also alll over half a million on here. Dont know if thats right or not but its there. Im willing to say those game ive just mentined are better thana lot of the ps3 exclusives like disgea, Atelier Roronoa, cross edge and hyper demension(EWW). Though there are some great ones as well. I have had a lot of fun with jrpgs this gen especially those earlier ones for the 360 I do think theres less available, but I wouldn't say theres a lack of great ones. No genre this gen or last just kept putting out top notch super good games in my opinion. |
yea, the 360 jrpg library is still better than the ps3 jrpg library here in America
PS3 has been doing well to catch up lately with stuff like Ni No Kuni and the upcoming Tales Of Xillia but it's been a very long time coming
the absolute gems on 360 are Tales Of Vesperia and Lost Odyssey. Infinite Undiscovery, The Last Remnant, Blue Dragon and Magna Carta are honorable mentions but Lost Odyssey and Vesperia is where it's at on the 360
and they DIDN'T sell pretty good for JRPGs of their stature. They sold pretty good FOR XBOX jrpgs

I was reffering to console gaming. And I did grow up but I have never owned a Nintendo console so I naturally forgot to list games like Xenoblade and The Last Story in the OP.
You should rename the thread, the words "Home console" should appear in the title
PD: Do yourself a favor, get a Wii and a copy of Arc rise fantasia, The last story and Xenoblade
If not, for whatever silly reason, download the Dolphin emu and the isos, and play them in full HD, here are the LINKS............xD joking
And after playing them come and tell us...

Last gen had a lot of awesome and wonderful RPG's but this gen has been very bland with a lot of average at best RPG's being released with the exception being Namco Tales of Vesperia, Xillia, and Graces. Of course this is my opinion but I would like to hear everyone elses. |
Dude Nino fucking Kuni just came out, go put hundreds of hours in that game, then P4G, by that time Xilia will come out in the West.
Odd that you complain just when the genres biggest games come out in over a decade.

Well two games is hard to make up for an entire generation. Ni No Kuni and Xillia are both great RPG's no doubt about it.

I was planning on buying TLS and Xenoblade when I bought a Wii U soon.
