Now the ones for the PS3 so far....

Valkyria Chronicles: 0.34 million
Disgaea 3: 0.20million
Eternal Sonata:0.06million
Enchanted Arms: 0.16million

What does this Data tell us?

 

This data tells us that over 2 years after the PS3 launched there's 1 good JRPG (which is a SRPG) on the system. The brand Playstation as THE place to be for J-games is totally gone.

I honestly don't understand how you can make a thread titled "PS3: JRPG success" and then come with this list. The crying about how games would fare so much better if they were on PS3 and how developers are stupid to make games for 360 makes it even sadder, cause fact is that 360's JRPG library is a lot better than PS3's.

as now i doubt that because they are getting dragon quest X and thats only huge in japan.

Ignorance is bliss, isn't it?

Fragile, Tales of Ten, Kizuna, Arc Rise Fantasia, Valhalla Knights, Musramasa: Demon Blade, Dynamic Slash, FF: Crystal Bearers, oh and indeed Dragon Quest X. And that's only what's announced so far. As far as consoles go it's clear that Wii will be the king, ironically for the same reason you say devs shouldn't make games for 360: Japanese userbase.

 

The title is missinterpreted by some of you. look at it this way, "PS3:Potential JRPG Success". I left out the Potential because I thought it might make the title too long where people would not read it.I did not title this "PS3 IS a JRPG success!"

What it is saying exactly is that these systems can AT LEAST sell JRPGs on par yet the PS3 just doesn't seem to be getting any. The Japanese refuse to accept the 360 as their go to JRPG console so why exactly are they putting majority of JRPGs on that system first?

And why must people continue bringing up the Wii in a discussion that is obviously not about the Wii? or DS and PSP? I do not feel that console gamers will be particularily satisfied if all future JRPGs are strictly for the Wii or handheld systems. That would bode never getting FFXIII and Versus XIII quality games. While Wii and handheld RPGs are great, some of us want more substance then that.
