nice i need another RPG

How do I know that most Tales fans don't own an XBOX 360? Simple.

The XBOX 360 is an American console and caters to a Western audience.

The PS3 is a Japanese console that caters to all audiences.

Most XBOX 360 owners just want to play Call of Duty and Halo online, that is the console's main audience, teenage kids who want to play online shooters. Just because you own an XBOX 360 and you enjoy Tales of Vesperia doesn't mean every single other XBOX 360 owner is the same. Like I said before, not only do the vast majority of XBOX 360 have no interest in the game, they have no respect for it either, and that's what pisses me off the most.

The sales of JRPG's speak for themselves. If you take a JRPG that hasn't had any of this timed exclusive or exclusive content bullshit and compare the sales, the PS3 would have a decent advantage in the West and the Japanese sales would bump the lead even higher. The only reason the XBOX 360 has a small Tales fanbase is because they were forced to buy an XBOX 360 when ToV was released as an exclusive.

And what makes you think I am saying that Tales series will only sell on SONY consoles? I mean ANY console. As you said, Symphonia sold the most and that was a Gamecube exclusive. The point I am trying to get across is that the XBOX 360 is the least JRPG friendly console on the market, mainly because it is the only successful console made in America.

It would be a bad business decision for Namco to release Tales of Graces on the XBOX 360 in the west. Playstation 3 is a no brainer because the game has already been coded to the PS3 in the Japanese release. The Wii would probably be a good platform to put it on aswell, Namco only need to port the content and there is a huge market for JRPG's on the the Wii.

Wow i get a warning for saying people ill still buy late exclusive but you say 360 owners have no respect for jrpgs. Your pissed off because you think 360 owners have no respect for jrpgs well theres plenty of people that i know personally who have plenty of jrpgs on the 360 and plenty of people on this site who have jrpgs for the 360 will you say that they dont respect the game i mean they bought it. and what makes a console jrpg friendly? the 360 is less friendldy to jrpg's because it is an american console um no if that was the case it wouldnt have as many of them as it does. tales fans werent forced to do anything and they obviously have a bigger fan base than they do on sony consoles as vesperia is the best selling console tales in ameica besides symphonia.

you didn't get a warning,  you got an argument, I was not acting as a moderator or admin.

Personally I feel that the Wii might be the harshest environment for jRPGs, but I won't know if that's true or not until Xenoblade and TLS get a chance in the West and we won't be lucky enough for a direct multiplat comparison unless Rune Factory: Oceans gets localized on both platforms.

ohhh okay sorry for the misinterpretation lol.and yea tls and xenoblade will prove a few things hopefully.

That i would like to see. Maybe with good advertisement, but i can't see neither one get outstanding sales or break the 500k line with ease.

And Rune Factory: Oceans would sell pretty poor on both PS3 and Wii over here. Unless, we're talking about small numbers... it would be a pointless comparison.

comparisons are comparisons, it's not just about which console sells Final Fantasy the best, but things like Rune Factory and Resonance of Fate.  Not every JRPG can be a huge budget bananza.

For the sake of this argument, we need to stick only to the big numbers or our point is invalid. No one can say that one system is the home for anything if that system can't sell enough to justify the existence of that type of games.

And besides Final Fantasy... that was pretty much the case for this gen. We can only agree that the portable systems are truly where this kind of game sell the most.

I disagree that big games like final fantasy are the only ones that sell enough to justify it's existence.  The Atelier Arland series is never going to get those kind of sales but it keeps Gust going and is selling more than enough to make a profit and therefore enough to justify its existence.  Selling little things like that help keep the genre what I love.  

Welp, there goes the hope of any future Tales releases outside of Japan if true.
