Lets be real here, Ninty seems to have that MH franchise all locked up, and FF??? LMAO, MS would have to pay HUGE for that exclusive, not gonna happen, especially from the performance of the last game

The 360 had nearly every J-RPG Series on their side on the beginning of this Gen.They had old Franchises and a lot of new franchises.
Tales of,Star Ocean,the Mistwalker games,SquareEnix backed them up and made advertising for them instead of Sony,Bamco and others...all helped to Microsoft instead to Sony.They even had a tons of exclusives but they didn'T sell at all cause the J-RPG Fanbase and in General the Fanbase of Japanese Games is 95% on the PS3 or Nintendo Hardware.
Companies learned of their mistakes too in this Gen - The Tales of Studios had to nearly shut down cause M$ promised them the green.
Sony saved them,they are on a high and Tales of is now more loved than Final Fantasy in JAPAN cause SquareEnix is still on their drug trip where they want to catch the attention of the CoD Community while every other Japanese Developer(except Capcom they are stupid too) went back to the things they are good at and get the good sales they were missing out in the beginning of this Gen.
Sure Sony made mistakes cause no one could afford the console but they made a big mistake.
Next Gen will be a lot of Sony Exclusive from the beginning or better Multiplats on the PS4 like it is now(with Japanese Games) - Persona The Arena is showing it pretty good...Those 10k people are probably US People living in Japan.
A complete waste of time to even develop that version cause those people would buy a PS3 anyway at some point.

Lol, I agree.

More pics of DQX launch please...

Do you really want more Ken?

At least the last few have been funny. I remember watching a stream of DQ9's launch though.

Yeah I want more DQX launch pictures! It's already Friday in Japan right now so why haven't we seen anything else yet??

I'm still amazed at the LL sales! :)
It's like 25% higher than my most fanboyish and baseless hopeless predictions!

How much will DQX do in these four days of sales you guys think?

The guy that makes this is back!
