Glad to see it as the series has emerged as one of the big JRPG series I look forward to playing. Xillia was great and Xillia 2 and Zestria are absolute buys for me.

I think they are. Namco just isn't going to hand it off to Sony or Nintendo to publish, so I don't think it'll ever match those sales. Symphonia on the GC was a perfect storm.

This is great for the series. Banco must be doing something right since their recent Jrpgs have been selling pretty well (Ni no Kuni, Graces F, Xillia).

as long as they keep bringing over tales titles the fans will keep buying em. everyones happy.

This gen, thanks to a lowered quality on Final Fantasy has made me give chances to series like Tales and Ys for the first time and I am glad I did.

I wonder how many units did really move the 360 version of Vesperia.

Pretty sweet for Xillia, I remember thinking Vgchartz had overtracked it in the west, but it seems it's about right if you give a little leaway for digital sales

Never actually played a Tales game, but fingers crossed if I get a PS3 soon I'll catch up on what I've missed (come to think about it, there's no reason I couldn't just go and buy Vesperia for X360)

probably but i imagine that PS3 version would have cannablized alot of the sales anyway. It being the better version and so much people being multiplat owners

this, i even played one of the Atelier games i would have never touched those otherwise and its actually pretty fun.

You know why symphonia is the best selling tales in the west? it's because it's the least Japanese one

That should tell namco something.

When i said that, i mean the setting/art style

For example, Xillia looks like an anime, while symphonia doesn't? you see.
