I still can't be convinced that the 360 is the clear winner in the JRPG department. It may have a slight advantage, but nothing I've seen points to the 360 as THE platform for JRPGs. Let's take a look (I'll left out bad raten games like Enchanted Arms or Operation Darkness):
360 JRPGs
Blue Dragon (not a great game, going by RPGFan)
Lost Odyssey
FF XIII
Vesperia (which probably will go to the PS3)
Star Ocean 4 (may or may not go to ps3)
Cry On (we've seen nothing)
Infinite Undiscovery
Eternal Sonata
Last Remnant
PS3
Folklore (genre is debatable)
Eternal Sonata
FFXIII
FF Versus XIII (may or may not go to 360)
Valkyria Chronicles
Disgaea 3
White Knight Story
Last Remnant
It's the 360 lineup superior? Yes. By much? No. Plus, a lot of titles haven't been anounced. Nippon said that after Disgaea they'll put their next title on the PS3. Konami hasn't said where Suikoden will go. Atlus has said where SMT will go (though they announced a SMT PS3 game in 2005, they haven't confirmed it). Level 5 may be working on Dark Cloud 3. In all, I think it's pretty early to declare a winner in the JRPG library. Surely, Microsoft improved their position compared to last gen, and Sony worsened it. but I see no reason to declare this as a battle for Microsoft yet

I know it probably herecy but I'll add the Wii RPG's:
Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the new World
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Fragile
Little King's Story
Rune Factory: Frontier
Oboro Muramasa Youtoden
Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles
Tales of ????
Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI (PS2)
Shiren the Wanderer 3
Chocobo's Mystery Dungeon
That's quite some support.... Yes, it misses the big SquareEnix games, but the other companies are very much focussing on Wii for RPG development. Where in the past all an RPG fan needed was a PS2, now you need Wii60 or PS3 to enjoy all the good stuff that is released.
Edit: Except for one these are all Wii exclusives. So as far as exclusive RPG's go Wii is already the undisputed winner and that will only increase as Square can't afford it to don't have major Wii support.

Err
Lost odyssey
blue dragon
zoid 3 or whatever
spectral force
darkness or whatever
star ocean 4
infinite undiscovery
tales of vesperia
cry on
now the multi with ps3, but remember you can count them because they will NOT appear on the wii. Which means you can add them on list for against wii
FF 13
Last remnant
Eternal sonota
enchanted arms.
it still has the edge for now.. tho i see wii taking over because it will have more smaller projects, but all big projects are on 360/ps3
edit: also werent lost odyssey and blue dragon confirmed to be getting sequals? At least blue dragon
