I think the real problem is that a lot of the JRPG fans haven't decided which console(s) to go with and they are still clining to their PS2s.  For example, Atlus stated that a majority of the Persona fanbase haven't upgraded to a new gen(or rather current gen) console and are still stuck with their PS2s.

 

I don't believe Atlus, and they are retarded anyway. What will they do, even if they're right?

The kind of games that Persona are just can't be risked on a HD console. They will be shunned just because of their low production value, regardless of them being good games or not.

Basically, that's like most SRPG. Disgaea on PS3 was just nonsense, but I think I understand why they did it. Now they're moving an nth remake of the first Disgaea to DS, trying to install a user base perhaps, but that just won't work.

SRPG and these low production value RPG were niche already last gen, I just don't see them going on with HD consoles. Only the Wii users have enough picture culture to accept these kind of "graphics" for these gens consoles. Wonder why they go on releasing Persona on PS2? It's just what I said: they don't know what to do, having associated their games with the Playstation brand, but unable to sustain these on HD consoles. Dangerous thing to do, putting all your eggs on one basket. A lesson that will be taught again the hard way this gen and next gen probably.

They all put all their franchises on Playstation, and this is the failing brand this gen. So all these devs are now going back to square one on the new userbase, and the last gen consoles user base that wasn't exposed to these games.
