Agarest II realeased on 360!? (mental note to check the sales, if any). Ninokuni should make it in 2011, 'cause Ghibli is hugely popular (in Europe especially. I don't really know in the US, could anybody from the Americas brief us?). For Xilia I considered the Japanese version (as I will play this one, I'm on ToG right now). If Tales of Graces doesn't make it to the West, Xilia won't. Sad but what can you do? JRPG is a niche market...

A new suikoden with the same quality level of 2-3 and 5 would be awesome. I heard the team behind suikoden 5 is working on a new jRPG for PS3 (could be suikoden 6).

Suikoden 4 wasn't that bad haha.

Agreed, but compare to the other 3 I mentioned, it leave you wandering what was the team thinking. At least, the lenght and number of side quest of suikoden 1 was easily acceptable in the PS1 era.

If Suikoden 6 comes out I'll scream and not feel ashamed.

Example:

No way Versus XIII will release in the West in 2011.

 If anything this year should have been the 'revivial' for JRPGs, with FFXIII and Resonance of Fate releasing. It didn't really happen though, FFXIII was a hit but left a bitter taste, and Resonance of Fate never really gained momentum. Those are two console JRPG's with far more budget and production value then anything that will realistically hit the west in 2011 - I guess The Last Story has a shot though, but it's still only one game which will have far less impact then FFXIII.

 The genre is just fading out in recent years on console it seems, and sadly it doesn't seem like more games (Of large budget and apppeal, at least) are heading that way. I think the genre needs a PSN/XBLA downloadable, 'simpler' type JRPG experience to blow us all away and really do something interesting, as there's next to nothing coming out at retail in 2011 except sequels of games most people ignored.

For there to be a "revivial" in the RPG genre, I believe to start, the idea of there being a "JRPG" as opposed to just an RPG, would need to go away, or at least cause questions.  By saying something is a JRPG, you end you start rolling off a checklist of features that are so well established, that one is then hard pressed to feel there is innovation.  One could say the say same for "Western RPG", for example.  I think what needs to happen for a breakthrough in non-sandbox style RPGs, is to have stuff like Demon's Souls and Valk. Chronicles, where when you start to try to argue they are JRPGs, there is a strong debate over whether one is or is not.  What should happen is the game gets recognized to be an RPG, but then you aren't exactly sure what kind, but you enjoy it. 

End result?  You have something that will give RPGs a shot in the arm.  The more you say, "Need to have a revival of JRPGs" the more you will get a pattern that isn't going to excite people at all, and will feel played out.

not a revival at all or anywhere close too it.  till a sequel of lost odyssey,new grandia make the list of releases for a year, then i wont be happy.  lost odyssey being the most important game for me to see a sequel too, i know its a slim chance unless ( feel plus ) is making the sequel which is known that they are working on a big scale jrpg and its for the 360, which just dont know what the game is suppose too be.

If Ninokuni makes 2011, it'll be just the DS version.  Level-5 games tend to take a year (or more) to localize (Layton 1-3, DQ8/9, Inazuma Eleven, WKC, Rogue Galaxy, etc).  Ninokuni would (1) be held to the highest localization standard due to Ghibli and (2) require localzation of not just the game, but the 350 page tome that comes with it.  There's pretty much zero chance we see Ninokuni PS3 anywhere but Japan in 2011.

As for Tales, I'm pretty Graces' chance is past.  I do think we'll see Xillia and the 3DS port of Abyss though, Namco tends to try and give Tales another go every few years and they might be ready in 2012.
