Wouldn't say that
The 360 got Tales of Vesperia cause they couldn't afford the PS3 Development at that time and Microsoft paid good cause they wanted to conquer Japan. They always wanted the game on the PS3 - You could see that on stuff that was already prepared in the 360 Version.
Graces was probably the same case cause the PS3 still wasn't that strong on the market. Graces F showed what they really wanted to make.
Vesperia Final Version,Graces F and Tales of Xillia(Franchise PreOrder Records in Japan and destroyed FF13-2) made Bamco a lot of money. The Tales of Studios were nearly shutdown after the 360 Version of Vesperia did so bad. I think the WiiU will get a Tales of if the PS4 is taking too much time to get released...We still have Xillia 2 but this is out in November i think.Maybe we will see another "Beta" on the WiiU and the Final Version on the PS4. I don't think Bamco wants to miss out on the insane numbers the Sony console is doing for them.

So much of this post is wrong.
First of all, the PS3 port of Vesperia released before Tales of Graces did, so that eliminates most of your statements. While it's likely true MS and Namco had a deal for Vesperia, it's not like the game did poorly (it's hilarious to even consider that Tales Studio was in any sort of trouble after Vesperia) or that they needed to wait longer to release a game on the system.
Xillia was also very successful, but did not do as well as FF XIII-2, so I don't know how selling less = destroyed?
On the Xillia preorder part, you are incorrect. The 200k preorders made it the most preordered Tales game, not the biggest PS3 game as FFXIII far outdid Xillia in preorders and in overall sales numbers .
