Lost Odyssey is stil the best sellign exclusive JRPG btw

you know that's not true. Anyway i doubt VP will be an exclusive, Tri-Ace have to be borderline retarded if they want to repeat their SO4 mistake. This is a franchise that can profit from Japan's sales alone and SE isn't going to kill it with stupid timed exclusivity on a system with the fewest JRPG fans.

White Knight Chronicles is the only one that has come close. I am speaking about this generation only BTW. Star Ocean 4 did just fine. I agree that it likely will not be exclusive but it may be timed though. Either way idc because I will be able to play it. I would prefer it to be Multi on day one so that more people can play it right out of the gate but if it is timed those that want it right away will get it then and those that want to wait will buy it later. Star Ocean:TLH did better on X360 than WKC did on PS3 as an exclusive title no less.

 

Current sales according to vgchartz:

Lost Odyssey 810,000

White Knight Chronicles 530,000

 

 

             

           

I was actually referring to Valkyria Chronicles, which sold more than LO. Anyway, it isn't fair to compare SO4 with WKC. On one hand you have a new IP and on the other a huge franchise(2nd only to FF&DQ) with a following dating back to the SNE days (SO1,SO2,SO:BS,SO3,SO4).  Do you really think SO4 will receive the same abysmal sales had it released day one as a PS3 exclusive or even as a multiplat?
