There are loads on the DS, PSP and (in Japan) Wii.
It's just a lot of them never get localised. For example, Xenoblade is EU only, and Earth Seeker, The Last Story, Tales Of Graces (Wii) AND Pandora's Tower are all stuck in Japan for the Wii.
JRPG's are out there. But they won't be coming to a Wii anywhere near you anytime soon, sadly. |
That honestly really is sad for all the Wii owners, all those JRPG's looked pretty awesome and they aren't bringing any of them to the West. I just don't get why Ninty would do that.
Granted they aren't exactly gonna burn up the sales charts but given how few and far between the core games have been for the Wii that would have certainly helped keep that demographic healthy.

It would have been a great way to send out the Wii, yes. But Nintendo don't want to look 'weird' in front of their demographic, sadly. And they want to be 'hardcore', but they think that's the 13 year old guys who have only ever played COD swearing down the mic every 5 minutes, the group who'll never be seen dead on Nintendo consoles, and the dudes who I don't want on Nintendo consoles...
I could swear I saw a thread about this...
EDIT**
I did!

I'm really afraid that NoA is going to be heavily going after those "hardcore" gamers (as you described) next generation with the Wii U. Unfortunately, that's what it is looking like right now. I think if Nintendo does try to go after the FPS gamers, it's going to be as successful as MS was with going for the jRPG crowd. The truth is most of those 13 year old "hardcore" gamers wouldn't be caught dead with a Nintendo console in fear that their friends on Xbox Live may call them fags.
IMO, wRPGs are even more cliched than jRPGs.
"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
