Gameplay trumps graphics. I see little hope for PS3 in Japan. FFXIII will help but it will be a temp boost and then a downfall like when previous boosts have occurred.
Mil. Sellers:
Wii: 25 titles 101.4 mil total avg 4 mil per title
PS3: 14 titles 28.6 mil total avg ~2 mil per title
360: 41 titles 89.8 mil total avg >2 mil per title

1) Good point. So what about a WiiPS3 release? To get both audiences. The Wii, cause there are a lot of families and younger gamers and the PS3 cause both previous releases were on PS2. 2) Whoohoo! I'm gonna be a true hardcore gamer in the near future, when I buy my PS3. :D |
PS3/Wii is a possibility. SE stated that their Crystal engine runs on Wii and PS3. But SE hardly makes multiplatform games. The only thing where you are wrong is saying that the PS2 fanbase is on PS3. Especially in Japan this is not the case. Only a small part of the PS2 owners made the step to PS3.
ps2 fanbase on ps3. HAHA sorry im just picture the 120mil people playing 11mil ps3 lol
MGS games are much bigger in the west than in Japan, so expecting MGS4 to turn around is pure folly. The last real bullet in the chamber for the PS3's chances in Japan is FFXIII and you have to get the feeling that Square Enix is holding the game back waiting for the PS3's user base to become larger in Japan. I've said it before and I'll say it again, when it comes to Japan the PS3 is done. Its userbase in Japan will hit 6 or 7 million life time at best.
Gran Turismo is way bigger than either FF or MGS.
While you argue about the saviour, only 8k japanese bought a unit last week =/
All hail the waggle overlords!
Current-gen game collection uploaded on the profile, full of win and good games; also most of my PC games. Lucasfilm Games/LucasArts 1982-2008 (Requiescat In Pace).
i think we could star ocean 4 to this discussion, even though we don't know if it is exclusive

Well in that case we will be waiting for the ps3 userbase to get bigger forever lol
No they wont help, did you even think before you made this thread.
MGS will boost sales, but FF13 is what will be the rise of PS3 in Japan. Any one with a tiny bit of intelligence know what happened to PS when FF7 hit and can predict what will happen.
ps you expect a good anwser on this mattr on here, come on.
Save the PS3 as in take it anywhere near the Wii on a regular basis or long term? No!
Save the PS3 as in take Sony anywhere near their former console glory? No!
Save the PS3 as in make it a viable platform for high-budget exclusive JRPG's? Maybe!
starcraft - Playing Games = FUN, Talking about Games = SERIOUS
