wow. lost odyssey was a major flop...That will show those JRPG developers to stay away from exclusivity on an American console dominated by shooters....

What are you talking about? 820k is pretty darn good for a jrpg.

Name me all the jrpg franchises that sold 820k+ on a home console this gen.

Final Fantasy (PS3)

Pokemon (Wii)

Monster Hunter (Wii)

Valkyria Chronicles (PS3) (And as mentioned before, VGC numbers may be inflated)

That's it.

 

Name me all the jrpg franchises on PS2 that sold 820k+. (the supposed "jrpg king" though IMO I'd consider DS to be the real jrpg king. But that's another debate for another day. lol)

Final Fantasy

Kingdom Hearts

Dragon Quest

Dark Cloud

Star Ocean (which Lost Odyssey beat this gen head-to-head on 360 btw).

That's it.
