G2 just got a PC announcement. Also it had a recent cross over - Xeno is not dead. Xenoblade? It is just like how Saga continued gears. You also have to remember Xenosaga concluded. The only legimate dead JRPG up there is Legend of Legia. A dead IP is one with NO POTENTIAL to return. As long as it is being used in some form it is not dead

Couple of things. I am not counting handheld space as continue of the franchise, as lot of the handheld counterparts don't live up to the franchise sadly (See Suikoden). X enosaga was its own franchise. To me ports to later consoles aren't enough, or a lot of franchises simply exist in PC/VC/Repackaging Space.
I will correct the title to say Dead JRPG Franchises in Console Space 5-6th Generation, if that helps.

FF13 did not live up to expectations. Are we going to exclude as well? A IP is not dead if the developer/publisher is using it in someway shape or form. Creating restrictions so that you can cherry pick is retarded. Wild Arms X Fire was a amazing game. Definitely better than the last two mainline installments
