You know, after seeing how low Demon's Souls sales were in Japan (0.14m), I was about to say that even if Sony doesn't have the IP right, they have no real financial reason to care if it goes to the 360. But now that I see Demon's Souls is PS3's 30th ranked game in Japanese sales, I take that thought back. I had no idea that PS3 software sales were generally this bad in Japan. I knew things were bad for HD there but not that bad. The handhelds are really killing the home console market over there. White Knight Chronicles is actually #8 on the PS3 even though it only sold 0.35m there. So I guess hd jrpgs (up until now) aren't really just niche there like I thought. It's just that HD gaming in general is niche there. So in case From Software makes a sequel and the PS3 install base gets going, I think it would be the smart thing to secure that IP if they haven't already.
