1. ToV isn't a sequel to anything. It's a new original Tales IP.

2. Well duh the 360 is better than the PS3 development wise. But still doesn't trump the Wii in terms of easiness and less cost.

3. Attach ratios don't mean crap. You could have a console with 100 units sold and every game released sells 1 copy to each unit and the console would have 100% ratio. Does that make it better than the console that has 30 mil units sold and a game sold 3 mil but only sold to 10% of the ratio? No. Raw numbers is what counts. Raw numbers and development, marketing, etc. tied in. That goes with #2.

4. Not like KH games have had DLC anyway, so what's the point of bringing it up? Many HD RPGs don't have DLC...why should this suddenly become a plus? Chances are if they make KH3 for the 360 they'd include everything in the disc without need for DLC.

5. None of the Wii's core games are even big. ToS: DotNW is much smaller than ToV when comparing, yet it already outsold it. NMH sold 300k but is Suda's best selling title. Games on the GC, PS2, GBA, etc. from him? Didn't get near that. So really, many core games have sold fine. The bigger core games like SSBB or Zelda or whatever have sold in the millions. Sure, they're Nintendo titles, but so what? They're big games...just like KH.

6. Only in NA. In Japan and EU where more than half sales come from, the Wii is kicking the 360's ass without any big third party titles.

 

 1. Yeah it is, actually. Its called a spiritual sequel, like Bioshock and System Shock.

2. The desire to make an HD game vs. a, erm, not HD game is up to what level the publisher wants the game to be at in terms of all around production values. This is something Sqeenix can go either way in, though for major sequels like this they have often went the way of adding as much as they can, and to make it have impressive production values. See: Final Fantasy Series, Star Ocean series, and in the past thus far, Kingdom Hearts Series.

3. Yes, they really do. Especially considering the two user bases. 8 vs....4 I believe? And ATM, 24.5mil vs. 39 mil. Its not far off, but it is greater in favor for 360.

4. Vesperia has DLC, and a ton of it at that. Fable II, Mass Effect, Fallout 3, they all got it. I don't know about the other JRPGs on 360 though. But I do know theres a massive amount of TLR and IU DLC out there, but not sure about in game stuff for those.

5. I have nothing to say about this. Vesperia's failure against Symphonia spin-off is just disheartening for the 360.

6.  In console sales yes; how about software? And thats an actual question too.

 

Again, I do think its going to Wii. But there is logic against it as well.
