This is disappointing.
I guess the "PS3 can sell JRPG's it just needs a chance to prove itself" has gone out the window now. |
read what both fila and i have said. anyone who expected this to sell more was simply fooling themselves. want proof? - http://vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=13325®ion=All - http://vgchartz.com/games/game.php?id=14180®ion=All - 220k is long ways away with those numbers.... (wasn't the 360 suppose to sell 1m according to you 360 fanboys because of the way larger install base {especially in america} with 360 fans loving shooters?)

Wait a minute? You are using the Xbox 360's disappointing performance with one game of which there are dozens in the genre on the console to make a comparison to the PS3's horrendous performance with a game that was meant to act as a lighting rod for the JRPG genre?
It can no longer be spun Mr Mature. The PS3 just got a very impressive JRPG, and it barely left the shelves it was set up on.

Your hypocracy is driving me nuts. Do you not realize that you've been touting the 360's "success" with JRPGs as only compared to the 2 JRPGs (which were all ports) ever released on the PS3, just to accuse someone of selectively picking out a low selling 360 title as the game that defines console status as a whole? Who's the one nit-picking here?
If you're trying to imply that the PS3 isn't capable of selling JRPGs as well as the 360, then why not make a friendly 4-8 month signature/avatar control bet with me that WKS will outsell ANY 360 JRPG ever created in Japan? But for some reason I doubt you have the courage (or stupidity) to attempt to compare a non-yearold port game of the PS3 to the best the 360 has to offer and expect the 360 to come out on top.
There doesn't need to be any spinning involved. It's obivious why TrustyBell will sell as low as it will in Japan for the same reason why it's obvious that if it were released a year ago, the PS3 version would have outsold it around 2-5 times to amount of the counter part 360 version just like all the other multiplatform Japanese games ever released. The point that you're trying to make a conclusion based off of one port is pathetic.

Hypocracy?
I thought prior to this only one JRPG had been released on the PS3? And only outside Japan? Enchanted Arms?
My point is, and has always been, that there is no proof whatsoever that the PS3 is capable of selling large quantities of JRPG's. I have not said that it is incapable of doing so, I have said that it offers no proof at this point. There were a lot of high expectations in this thread (mine included). There was also a great deal of hyping of this game (port) all around these boards. It is by all accounts a greatly improved version of an already good game.
What possible purpose would me making a bet on a future game have with regard to my assertion that the PS3 has not currently proved a capability to sell JRPG's in large quantities?
Furthermore, explain why you bolded my text about UT3, then labelled it hypocracy whilst ignoring my entire point that the 30th in a line of shooters on one console =/= the first JRPG.

All I read was blah blah blah. That was a very simple bet, are you scared to take it? BBSin just needs to specify the length it'll take for that to happen or if he means 1st week sales. |
As BBsin has decided not to answer, I will ask you.
What on earth has White Knight Chronicles got to do with anything I have said?
