How will the Wii U fit games on the PS4, if the PS4 will have 7GB RAM available?

Because back then, Nintendo's reputation as a console manufacterer, were destroyed. Even then, Wii still managed to aquire a reasonable list of JRPG exclusives (Tales of Graces, Arc Rise Fantasia, Tales of Symphinia 2, Monster Hunter 3, Dragon Quest X, Dragon Quest Swords, Rune Factory, Fragile Dreams, etc) even if some of the bigger ones were 1st party. Remember, a lot of Wii JRPG's never got localized. Next gen, Wii U will get more, and PS4 will get less, simple.

LOL, when it's E3/TGS, you'll realize that PS4 will be abandoned by the Japanese, much like the PSV was. Well realistically, not as extreme, but I wouldn't be surprised if FFXV turned out to be a Wii U exclusive.

I am proud to bestow you with your first official WTF of the day. :)

Do you really think Sony can reattract the Japanese gamers after loosing so much support with the PS3? PSP had a lot of JRPG's, but now with the PSV many Japanese 3rd party developers are shifting most of their projects to 3DS.

Do you not think that in Japan, this might also become the case for consoles? How many JRPG's really pushed the 360/PS3 graphically? None really, maybe Lost Odyssey, but that's it. Japanese developers don't need that extra graphical push the PS4 has over the Wii U, and if Wii U, like Wii, has a larger install base in Japan, then it's inevitable that we will see more Japanese support on the Wii U then PS4.

Plus Nintendo is very supportive nowdays, with them games like Last Story and Pandora's Tower got funding in the first place. If Square Enix goes to Nintendo and asks for funding for an exclusive FFXV, Nintendo will not say no. It makes a lot more sense to make largely developed games like FFXIII Versus exclusive to Wii U, instead of rebuilding the game for PS4. Plus with all of Sony's financial troubles lately, it's not like they will be able to produce many 1st party JRPG's.

This could change late into the generation though, I mean in this gen, the 360 was the JRPG machine, and then the PS3 really played catchup with.
