According to the DB on vgchartz...

Wii has 20 RPGs, X360 as 23, and PS3 has 14. Now that is RPG, not just JRPG. Many of those are stretching it to be called an RPG, but... within 2-3 years the wii will eclipse the 360 and PS3 combined.

With the 360 having under 7% of the market in Japan, you are just being silly if you think that is where JRPGs will be going... WRPGs may get a significant amount, but not JRPGs.

 

I already posted a comparison of every PS3 and Wii game that gamerankings.com deems "RPG," and the clear advantage is the PS3 over the Wii.  I don't think you an argue against that right now...

 

I was arguing more about the future (2-3 years) and not about the games right now...  It takes years for a good game, and so what is currently released has more to do with the expectation of PS3 having the largest market share.  Given the wii's growing market share, it will get the majority  (but not all) of JRPs in the future.  All systems will get good games though, it's just that in the long run, the wii will get the most.
