On every other system out there, even the Wii has a better RPG lineup at the moment.

 

I think you got the Wii mixed up with the DS.

Flagship is correct which is just a testament to how far Sony has fallen. Sony has almost no presence within the genre at all. Internationally they have Enchanted Arms a game that was ported from the 360. With less then two hundred thousand sales, and poorly reviewed. Within Japan they also have Valkyrie chronicles which has also yet to sell more then two hundred thousand copies. Compare that to Dragon Quest, Fire Emblem, and a few other titles the Wii has. You will notice just how big the difference is. The PS3 really is dead last.

 

Stop being absurd.

So the Wii has 1 decent dungeon crawler, which is now surpassed by Valkryia Chronicles. If you argue that's SRPG, ok, Folklore is around 75%. Fire Emblem isn't much better.

There is no argument for there being a "big" difference as you claim. Get real. The future is uncertain but right now looks better for PS3 than Wii. sc34322 keeps listing upcoming games in the genre, but most of them are more unproven than the PS3 ones (including likely ports like Star Ocean 4 and the already upcoming Eternal Sonata which will be the first true JRPG on either system).

That was so stupid you hurt my head. You need to learn some reading comprehension. Your list making skills are idiotic and irrelevant. The topic is JRPGs do you understand what those are? Do you understand why Oblivion and Marvel are not relevant to this discussion? Thats right they are not JRPGs. Even more absurd is the fact that you relist Oblivion 3 times to fluff the list. One last question did you actually think that this bullshit would fly?

The PS3 only has one title internationally, and two within Japan. You created a list to try and hide that fact. Then you try to tell us that ratings for games determine who is ahead. Excuse me when did this become a standard. The answer is the rating does not matter what matters is the volume. The only thing your list proves besides your deceitfulness is that the Wii does have more JRPGs then the PS3.
