Because no one expects a jrpg to be Xbox exclusive? By the time they release one, it's too late: I already bought a PS3 expecting the rpgs. It's just senseless really. Considering that the 360 was selling much better than the PS3, and the genre still failed to sell on the system, you really cannot dismiss this as "the work of fanboys" at this point. There's no better example than FFXIII.
Whether you like it or not, the jrpgs public is mostly on Playstation - Ni no Kuni sold better than Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, despite not having Sakaguchi's name. It's like putting CoD only on a Nintendo system, and expecting it to sell the same thing. It just doesn't work.

When games like Blue Dragon and LO released I was pretty sure that they will stay on 360 so that I would have bought a 360 interested in these games. If you bought a PS3 when you saw these games releasing on 360 it's people like you tesponsible for low sales. It's someone like you who wanted to buy a PS3 without these games. If I would be a fan of games like CoD and would see them only on a Nintendo system I would simply buy this console and not "I don't buy the console because these games should be on PS4 and/or Xbox One". If people don't buy consoles for the games they get and are instead like "games have to release on consoles I buy" then it sound to me as if they are biased against this system.

2 games is not reason enough to buy a new console, especially when both are not proven IPs (and considering Blue Dragon isn't a good game). Now, there are enough games to justify the 360 purchase without question, but for those who can only get one console, it's unfortunate to miss out on the handful of good JRPGs on 360.
