SquareEnix continues to make an Ass out of itself.

Come on, do you people still believe that a JRPG, especially one that uses an already existing engine (i.e. The Last Remnant) that sells over 500k is a massive flop? JRPGs have never been a big genre. Anyone expecting huge sales from a genre like this needs to get a slap in the face. Now. (Unless the game has Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest in it's name.)

 

no my freind you dont get it

these are hard times for rpg fans , and putting these rpgs on one side of the market aint going to help the sales .

JRPG fans should buy the 360!

 

 

As a JRPG fan: I never cared for the Tales series.  I never cared for the Star Ocean series.  I love Atlus, but everything they released for the 360 was garbage.  JRPGwise on the 360; Lost Odyssee, Blue Dragon, & Infinite Undiscovery were all worth my time and money.  Everything else goes to the Wii (like Fire Emblem and FFCC) and specifically the PS3 (Valkryia Chronicles being the best of them all along with the PS3 exclusives like Disgaea & White Knight and improved PS3 versions of Enchanted Arms and Eternal Sonata).  But this console gen of JRPG's = fail.  Currently handheld consoles for JRPG's is where it's at.  And at least there are PLENTY of PS2 JRPG's to still choose from if nothing else.
