Some JRPGs sell better on west, but would be hard to prove that JRPG in general sell most in the west, even more on Xbox. I don't remember a single JRPG being multiplat and selling most on xbox.

I would never claim a JRPG selling best on xbox lol I think most people know xbox isn't exactly the holy mecca of JRPG sales, but it's an area Xbox knows it has to improve on hence the recent JP interest. That being said I feel like this thread has been kinda hijacked by Xbox so imma just end with that I hope Tri-Ace and other struggling devs find a solution.

Ok but even if we were thinking Nintendo or PS5, hardly I could say that it is a common occurence for JRPGs to sell best in west than in Japan. Some high production JRPGs do sell better worldwide, but for a vast amount of the others they have little presence outside of Japan. And locking them to Xbox that have little presence in Japan and for JRPGs it isn't the biggest platform worldwide would limit a lot of the reach.

But yes I hope Tri-Ace can recover.
