BTFeather55 everything you just stated was addressed in initial post. Japanese centric games are pretty much Wii Bound this point. The "West-friendly" tiles the Japanese developers are working on won't be affected by Japanese sales. The 360 has sold nearly 29 million consoles out side of Japan to the PS3's 18 million. Historically the second place console in Japan sells between 4 to 6 million consoles. The PS3 won't be able to sell enough consoles in Japan to make up for the 360's lead in the West.
Unless they were already deep into production for an HD platform. RPG's and other Japanese centric titles would have a better chance at profitability on the Wii. The Wii has lower development costs and twice as many users. If the Wii wasn't so successful in Japan, I could see your point about Japanese devs switching to the PS3 but that isn't the case. While it's fallen behind the PS2's pace, the Wii is still well ahead of the PS1's userbase for the same period of time in Japan.
