| Argh_College said: Damn Next Xbox better have some Rpgs at launch so it can sell on Japan, Japanese dont wat Home Console let alone Xbox. Vita handheld not doing so hot right now but should pick up once Jap games are launched i think. On the other hand 3DS is a monster, will be best selling handheld ever in Japan, im predicting 35m sold. |
The 360 had nearly every J-RPG Series on their side on the beginning of this Gen.They had old Franchises and a lot of new franchises.
Tales of,Star Ocean,the Mistwalker games,SquareEnix backed them up and made advertising for them instead of Sony,Bamco and others...all helped to Microsoft instead to Sony.They even had a tons of exclusives but they didn'T sell at all cause the J-RPG Fanbase and in General the Fanbase of Japanese Games is 95% on the PS3 or Nintendo Hardware.
Companies learned of their mistakes too in this Gen - The Tales of Studios had to nearly shut down cause M$ promised them the green.
Sony saved them,they are on a high and Tales of is now more loved than Final Fantasy in JAPAN cause SquareEnix is still on their drug trip where they want to catch the attention of the CoD Community while every other Japanese Developer(except Capcom they are stupid too) went back to the things they are good at and get the good sales they were missing out in the beginning of this Gen.
Sure Sony made mistakes cause no one could afford the console but they made a big mistake.
Next Gen will be a lot of Sony Exclusive from the beginning or better Multiplats on the PS4 like it is now(with Japanese Games) - Persona The Arena is showing it pretty good...Those 10k people are probably US People living in Japan.
A complete waste of time to even develop that version cause those people would buy a PS3 anyway at some point.
