I really start wondering where the PS2 JRPG fans are.

Most of them play World of Warcraft now....or at least 11 million of them. ;)

 

 

Since when is that a JRPG?

I meant that I don't have a clue which console the PS2-JRPG lovers now have. It's clearly not the PS3, otherwise ES would have sold much better, despite being a year old port. But they also don't massively adopt 360, since those JRPGs sold well, but not on a PS2 level. I doubt they're on Wii, since they have yet to get their first JRPG.

They can't have just vanished, since JRPG gamers are pretty core.

I have a Wii and 360. My friends used to play RPG on their ps2. Now, they are not playing any RPG on Wii. Most people don't buy a console for a genre. They buy a console and then play the games on it. Many people probably bought Final Fantasy because of the name but weren't fans of RPGs at all.

 

 

Sounds plausible, maybe a lot have indeed moved to Wii. We can see if Symphonia sells well. Should sell at least 300.000 imo.
