@ Valkyria

Spectral Force 3, Zoids: Assault, and Operation Darkness.

All of them aren't very good, but Spectral Force is all right.

Confusing new avatar.....

Meh I prefer my SRPG on handhelds anyways. Takes something special like VC to make me like them on console.

Haha, thanks. I did switch in the middle of our conversation.

SRPGs can be tailored either way, but I tend to like them on consoles a bit more. SRPGs require a lot of time to get into to, and unless tailored right, doesn't fit the pick and play mechanic with a handheld title need, imo.

I agree. Although I would say that the 360 is a significantly behind the PSP and DS when it comes to JRPG's...But I'm assuming this is just based on home consoles.

Yep, next gen consoles only, which have the major hardcore RPG franchises.

That's arguable...Dragon Quest IX and Pokemon are huge titles that are available on the DS. There's still some going to the PSP but there are a lot of remakes/ports (Persona, Star Ocean, Disgaea) or side stories (Crisis Core).

Also, both Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology games for the PSP outsold the ToV and the first Tales of the World: Radiant Mythology outsold Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World.

Dragon quests largest following was on the PS2 and ended there. Dragon Quest isn't a priority on the Wii, because the demographic are focused on non-hardcore games. Pokemon will be purchased by kids and still wont sell enough to be considered a threat any longer. Pokemon was huge when my generation was growing up. We're talking about the hardcore. 2 Million sold or more and growing by the core demographic.

You're taking your trolling a bit too far S.T.A.G.E., because for you to say that Dragon Quest isn't a priority is just ridiculous.

Just admit that it's not "priority" only because it's not on *your* radar due to it not coming to an HD system. And lmao at your Pokemon comments. You should've looked at the sales of Pokemon Diamond/Pearl and Pokemon Platinum before spewing such foolishness. Pokemon and Dragon Quest aren't going to stop selling just because you want them too.
