I wonder if Wii will get more RPGs than these so far.

Considering we're at least a year away from the end of this generation, it would be shocking if it didn't.

I agree with this man. I feel that Wii owners have very low expectations sometimes.

JRPG's on the Wii should be ported to the DS. That way, they could get the sales they deserve.

What are you implying here?

It's quite obvious. The Wii fanbase doesn't support the JRPG's. I haven't seen a JRPG on the Wii that has even hit 2 m copies sold yet. Even Pokemon sold like shit for a Pokemon game. By name value alone, it should've sold 3 m copies. A small amount of Wii JRPG's have already been ported to the DS, so I suggest they do the same for all of them. Nintendo is aiming their main console at the wrong demographic if they expect to keep third party devs happy.

I thought it was certain that Dragon Quest X was coming to Wii? I vaguely remember reading about a press conference where Iwata announced that this game was coming...

All of those should be successful, at least in Japan.. except Monado, which is unclear because its a new IP and looks pretty generic.

They should put Dragon quest solely on the DS or the PS3 if they want the game to gather decent sales post FFXIII launch.

I think it'll do fine on Wii alone.



GOTY Contestants this year: Dead Space 2, Dark Souls, Tales of Graces f. Everything else can suck it.

I don't see your point there, what JRPG on any home console has sold 2 million? Hell even 1 million.

I don't know about DQX just yet. Yes it was announced as a Wii exclusive thus far, but you never know. MS might come out next E3 and get a multiplat release. It would be the next best thing to make more in roads for there Japan sales.

Well, it's pretty certain that FF13 will pass 2 million on PS3 eventually. The fanbase won't just go away.

He's saying that DQ10 could do better because FF13 will have sold so much. Not that I agree with him, but that's his point.
