Okay what about lost odyssey and blue dragon both of which sold over 800k and are exclusive Also infinite undiscovery and the last remnant sold pretty well maybe not meeting expectations but they did fine. That whole year late port is getting old ifpeople want it they would have got it. and if your gonna use that logic why should namco give ps3 owners vesperia it will only sell bad because its a late port in your eyes right? Also look at ps3 jrpg exclusives like the last rebellion, Ar tonelico 3, trinity universe. hyper dimension neptunia, none of them have managed to do over 100k in america but the 360 has lower selling jrpgs that have cracked better milestones. Microsoft did those timed exclusives to help them in japan and it may not have worked but it helped more than their strategy with the original xbox and it gave 360 owners some good games It wasnt a shitty deal sony does those types of deals as well.

You're seriously comparing a bunch of NISA published tiny little games to stuff done by the creator of Final Fantasy, and Square Enix?  How ridiculous, most of those games sold within their norm for the series, noone expects huge numbers.  If you want to compare why don't you bring out things like Valkyria Chronicles and Demon's Souls which are at least on the same scale.

But regardless, the only direct comparisons we have for the sales potential of JRPGs on the two systems are FFXIII and Resonance of Fate.  Both of those show that the PS3 sell them a bit better in the West and far better in Japan so I don't know what you are trying to prove by comparing exclusives with all kinds of different situations.

edit: I actually just checked and you even chose the worst selling NISA published games, ignoring stuff that did sell over 100k like Cross Edge and particularly Atelier Rorona (150k).  If you're going to just take the worst selling RPG's for comparison why don't we compare to all those terrible SRPG's Atlus put on the 360?

Agreed. It's utterly ridiculous to compare a game with a gigantic budget like Lost Odyssey to games like Last Rebellion and Trinity Universe, which likely had less than half of LO's budget.

If its coming next year, I guess they really didn't have any plans on localizing it until all the begging on Facebook occured.  I'm happy that all the begging on Facebook worked (I was one of them as well).

 

Too bad it won't be dual release on the Wii as well.  Although I think the PS3 version would sell alot better, it would have been nice for the Wii only owners.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

Tales of Graces F is releasing in 2012 a whole year after the japanese release. So this is coming soon according to Namco Bandai then I'm glad I already played the Japanese version.

Then it's official then PS3 only confrimed! It's sad that it won't be on the Wii though. Well, anyways I prefer it to be in the PS3 anyways because of the trophies.

I was comparing them to show him that 360 owners do care about jrpgs and play them. and anyway a game having a higher budget doesnt always mean it will sell better. if anything it sold better because it was a better game.

rpg gamer buy this year a playstation 3, because this console have the best RPGs 2011/2012. Tales of Xillia, Ninokuni, WKC2, Tales of Graces F (better on ps3 with special features), Trinity, Atelier, Ar Tonelico, ect.


But Xenoblade and The Last Story are much better than all of the games you mentioned, except Tales of Graces that seems to be a good game.

I only mentioned budget as the games you mentioned did not need a lot of sales to be profitable. They are also very campy games with crossovers and alchemic combination RPGs. They're super niche titles, while things like LO, FFXIII, Resonance of Fate, and WKC are aimed at a more general RPG fanbase.
