DQ swords has sold better because its a DQ, in Japan every DQ sells well even a spin-0ff and why would jrpg go to the wii when the only ones selling well is DQ swords, ToS, and Pokemon.(WKC outsold Pokemon and ToS in japan)"
So if a DQ spin off can beat them all why would a main FF game be able to?
the pokemon game isn't even an RPG, its a stadium game where you can't even walk or search or even travel.
ToS2 is a spin-off of a popular game, not a sequel.
"Imagine this....
FINAL FANTASY XIV COMING TO WII,DS,AND PSP!!!!
nope........doesn't sound right, and it never will! Wii, DS, and PSP get a lot of RPGs....fine, thats good. Yet these RPGs are no where near on the same standard we put upon certain RPGs such as FF. I like handheld RPGs but I would NEVER want all RPGs to be on handhelds. Give me the FFs of the world anyday.
And like I said, this is not about the Wii so why must Wii Heads continuously bring up that system? This is not about the handheld market either. We are talking HD console JRPGs."
apart from your HD shit, why shouldn't the wii be mentioned? It makes more profit.
"What about the Wii?
What about fuck off!
Ahem.
"
what about you?
what bout fuck off!
ahem.
Wii discussion is as welcome in this thread as you are.

Because regardless of the Wii having a wider userbase it offers nothing for the Type of RPGs we are talking about. That system cannot give me great graphics, physics, immersion, or controls schemes that the HD console's can.
I hate waggle control for anything other then fitness games. The Wii's graphics are outdated and if I wanted to play JRPGs with that level graphics I would just go back to PS2, those were better anyway. Wii offers nothing in the respect of dynamic physics to make games more real OR immersive. The Wii also uses an outdated format just like the 360 meaning shorter RPGs(which is an oxymoron of what JRPGs are suppose to be. And please don't say multiple discs because a multiple bluray disc game trumps a multiple dvd disc game anyday).

now you're just talking PR bull.
Since when EVER have you needed physics in a JRPG?
Since when have controls been a concern in JRPGs? Even then the Wii has 3 control schemes so you lose on that.
Graphics mean shit. Golden sun is the best RPG i have ever played, yet its on the GBA. Don't try calling it nostalgia, i only got it recently.
and wii doesn't need multiple discs because it doesn't need the same amount of space for PS360 games to save HD textures.

I've no doubt in my mind the HD consoles can create an RPG experience which is 'more' then we've played on previous consoles or is possible on the Wii. I guess it depends on what you want but for me it's just a change on the battle system formula, and I think the extra power behind the console could lead to a revolutionary RPG battle system. I have no idea in my head how it'd work or whatever but I can sort of see it :/.
I just think the RPG's we'll see on Wii are going to be the exact same that we saw on the PS2 but... erm, just the same really. Sure some will be great games but I'm skeptical if they'll honestly push things forward in anyway different to a good PS2 RPG.
