MS's JRPG strategy has been pretty masterful. First they funded Mistwalker. Then they bought out a bunch of Namco Bandai exclusives, then seemed to buy out Tri-Ace (Infinite Undiscovery and Star Ocean), and now have secured FFXIII without directly buying it out.

I think this is really bad for JRPG fans that own PS3s and even Wiis. The past has shown that JRPG developers tend to flock to a particular system, and with FFXIII safely in MS's hands, the 360 is without a doubt, the JRPG home console console. Then again, the PS3 will get some multiplatform games. The Wii on the other hand will have to rely on its low budget to draw developers and so far that doesn't seem to be working out.

I think we should wait to see the sales before judging it. While the 360 is getting alot of exclusive JRPGs, most of them are being developed for handhelds. After the handheld I see the developement going to the next best thing Wii, or Multiplatform 360/ps3. Jrpgs seem to be more split this generation. I do think the wii will get the most though at the end of the generation just because how niche Jrpgs are outside of japan, and the wii seems to be growing fast in all regions. I think we should wait a little longer before naming a console Jrpg console of this generations. And while the 360 has more, both the ps3 and Wii have quite a few of their own.

 

Handhelds are the king of JRPGs this generation.
