the order of sales shouls stay like that imo.

with other big hitters in japan like yakuza 4 jap sales should remain high, god of war and gt5 round the corner the ps3 sales should excell forward now, rounding off next hioliday with agent.

In japan you also have resonance of fate & a few more JRPG's like SO4

they could move systems

I think FFXIII will move more PS3's than 360's

all depends of specific offers from Sony/MS

It seems MS has given some money to get Last remanant/infinite discovery/SO4 exclusivity
all depends if they continue or not

we now know that 360 is really not the perfect console for RPG and his handicaped by his restrcited jhapan userbase

it is time to see if SE will go back on a pro-PS3 state or keep a neutral stance for FFXIII

I get the feeling MS has given up on getting exclusive content for JRPGs and the like.  All it needs is multi-platform in the West, for example with FXIII.

In the end MS clearly paid out or otherwise funded via other methods a fair few titles that did see them get past 1M in Japan, but really didn't prove worth the effort vs where PS3 now is in Japan.

I see zero return for MS going forward now with this strategy, and they do seem to have quit it themselves.  All MS needs is to make sure in West the title is on 360 now in a multiplatform version.

I think they are going to divery money and effort behind Natal now and consolidating their growth in US and Europe outside hardcore online crowd.
