I hope it's true that a localized version is coming out on Wii.

It could be Namco sees an opportunity with Xenobalde / The Last Story / (DQX??) coming to the west (hopefully) to form a trio of strong JRPGS that'll all benefit from each other.  IE: 3(or 4) strong JRPGS would get JRPG fans to get a Wii for them, especially if Nintendo is promoting them strongly.

No such opportunity exists on PS3 currently.

 

Did you think about what you posted? There are way more JRPG's on and coming to PS3 than Wii. Hell if anything PS3 has the avantage currently in regards to JRPG's.

In numbers sure, but nothing as heavy hitting as DQX or probably even The Last Story is still coming.  Most of what has been announced is smaller NIS fare which I really look forward to but don't match up in popularity to what Last Story is likely to do (assuming it comes here at all).

But on a different note, the idea that having other games releasing the same year from the genre makes it a good time to release their game seems ludicrous to me.  Since when have games from other companies in the same genre been seen as anything other than competition?  I don't recall any of this synergy idea Gamerace seems to be assuming.
