I don't thing if it would have been a multi-platform game would have helped out sales much either.  All console JRPG's had poor sales this generation.  At least it sold better then Mistwalker's follow up game The Last Story which numbers are a lot worse and I don't think its upcoming US release will help its total numbers much.

I highly disagree, most multiplat Japanese games enjoyed respectable and/or higher sales on the PS3.

A random example: Resonance of Fate PS3 0.62 / X360 0.28

Wait a sec, The Last Story just came out and it's not even out in the US.

You couldn't be more wrong in everything you said.

The Last Story was first released in Japan in on January 11th, 2011 that's almost a year and a half ago its Japense sales numbers are pretty much final since it only managed to sell less then 2,000 copies so far this year.  It European numbers aren't going to get much better it been available there since February 4th of this year and I highly doubt that the US release on August 14th will give the games total sales much of a boost.
