Will you look at that, I'm no GBA expert but I could easily spot many RPGs at first glance, you can check the list yourself and look at the score. The truth is, RPGS have always been strong on Nintendo handhelds, since the first gameboy, it's not a matter of attention shifting this generation. JRPGs are plenty on handhelds regardless of how much they are demanded on consoles.

Just some of what I spotted, there are some remakes, but the list is there:

*List of 17 RPGs plus Zelda for some reason*

So the DS has already shipped more JRPGs than the GBA, with many more still in production or not yet localized for NA release. And then there's the PSP, with another 9 handheld titles which meet your criteria. 50% more JRPGs with a metacritic of 75 are already released on current-gen handhelds than were on the last generation of handhelds.

You can turn your nose up at them if you like (I turned my nose up at every JRPG last gen that wasn't made by Intelligent Systems), but the games are there. They're just on the handhelds now, because that's where the target audience is, and because most of these games are so niche that they need handheld-level budgets to turn a profit.

 

 ??? I didn't list the whole list, take Zelda off the list whatever, go do your own reading of the list and read carefully what I posted rather than just looking at a list and reply with nonsense.
