Forums - Sony - Famitsu: Ar Tonelico 3 and a new Musou game announced for the PS3

He said a lot of comments about 360 and RPGs, what i remember the most is he saying that the 360 was the definitive choice for RPGs this generation... I'll find the video when he says it, because i can't find the text quote...

If you look at the original DQX announcement topic, a lot members heavely suggest that those kind of games would eventually be announced for the Wii, and the funny thing is that 90% of the time it is the PS3 who get's them exclusively.


I was one of the people who suggested that and it really doesnt happen so far. Then again, this shouldnt really bother Wii fans much as chances are that in Japan DQX will outsell every PS3 jRPG combined, including FFXIII. I'd say that the recent string of PS3 jRPG announcements has a lot to do with FFXIII coming out soon.


wat does sells have to do with a console getting more of genre then another....ur probably rite but wont change the fact that PS3 is lookin to be the JRPG king console


What determines which console is the "JRPG king console" ? I'd say it's the one that sells the most jRPG software and not the one with most jRPG releases.

What a load of crap, dude. You are at vgchartz.com, an internet site created specifically for videogame sales-related news and discussions. If you dont like people bringing up sales then you should probably stick to another site.

no my post is logical...which is why u didnt argue against it, we may be sales site, but it in know way, shape, or form mean we change the general definition *insert genre* Kng..PS2, PS1,DS were/are JRPG kings not because of there combined sales of the genre but because they catered MOST to JRPG fans..that fact that ur saying hypothetically DQ could outsell every JRPG combined makes it the JRPG king when are consoles that have waaay JRPGs on it( iirc even 360 has more JRPGs, then Wii) is ridiculous...it may have one best, but it doesnt make it a king



Your logic is flawed all around. How do you determine which console caters the most to jRPG fans if not by jRPG games sales, I wonder.

How would a single well selling game cater well to jRPG fans?  Are you going to buy 8 copies of DQX since it sold so well?



...

Rei how is this so hard??? the console that caters to JRPG fans the most is the JRPG king, I cant say it any other way



The king console of JRPGs is a combination of factors: The sales (because they're key for more JRPG devs doing games for that console) the absolute number of JRPGs available for that platform, the variety (how many turn-based, action, tactical, in cel-shaded, in CG, story tipe, linear, open world, etc.), and of course: the overall quality (for me, the most important factor)...
