Well, lets be fair here. Demon Soul is a pretty big budget game, aimed squarely at the Japanese market. Sales look pretty promising - although its bound to be top-heavy.

That is so not true. Japanese retailers completely screwed up for this one. They underestimated the demand of this game and ordered too few copies for sale.
Honestly, with so little information about this game before launch, and the art style of this game is so westernized, who would have thought that this game could be decent and Japanese core gamers totally buying into it.

Well, it seems a very Japanese market game to me. Nothing to do with sales though - its no surprise retailers haven't order a huge number of units.
So how many games that are NOT established IPs have actually done well in Japan over the last 6-12 months? Any?

But, lets be fair here.
No matter what it's still a pretty good sales than expected.

It's also funny that people have been predicting for months that those low-budget JRPGs would end on the Wii, while most of them have been announced(exclusively) for the PS3. |
And most of the the big ones are for the PS3. (but to be more accurate, most big pushing Japanese games are on PS3, not necessarily RPGs)
I've noticed these RPGs have started to be announced once the PS3 went over the Wii this year...I'm expecting more PS3 announcments when the PS3 gets similar boosts from GT5, T6, Tales, whatever. And although it's far away, once FFXIII + FFXIIIv are released we'll probably see a ton of announcements of RPGs to capitalize on that fanbase. Probably before too.

Fixed.

Haha~ Priceless. Very true what you said there.
Just like that one Ninty fanboy beleive... I also beleive this senario :D
