The only pure JRPG on the PS3 is White Knight Chronicles which has ONLY been released in Japan so far.

Lost Odyssey (JPN): 110K
WorldWide: 820K
White Knight (JPN): 370K

White Knight hit JPN about a year and a half after LO's first release. I don't know why you even bothered to bring up Disgaea3 or Demon's Souls since those games pretty much define the word "Niche". Here's some interesting info though:

VC is a SRPG and has 700K sales. LO had a 10 Month head start on VC. And at the current rate things are going, I expect Demon's Souls' US sales to surpass LO's by Summer 2010.

White Knight vs Lost Odyssey in Japan?  Is that even a fair comparison.  Thats PS3 home turf.  Its like comparing a 360 FPS to PS3 FPS in N. America.

I personally see FFXIII on 360 selling as good in the US while reaching 2M worldwide.



I always believed Sony would counter MS' MW2 bundle and advertising with FFXIII advertising and bundles.. as a way to counter act the effect of MW2. We know it won't be as effective, considering FPS are bigger in NA than JRPG's, even Final Fantasy.

But, to answer your question, I don't see the 360 version outselling the PS3 version, not even in NA.. Just look at Batman AA! It's outsold the 360 version and it wasn't even exclusive at one point! And it's an action game, which is supposed to appeal to PS3 and 360 user base.

Well shit, you brought up VC and Disgaea3 [an SRPG and an even more niche SRPG] so I figured why not. You also wanted to compare LO to games the PS3 doesn't even have [JRPG's released worldwide like LO].



4 ≈ One

2 million best case scenario

Well Demons Souls is more of a western RPG, VC is obviously SRPG. But Demons souls isnt WW and VC very well may pass Lost Odyssey WW and it hasnt been out as long.

I think what your argument is proving is that somehow the PS3 has been shafted when it comes to JRPG's which is sort of ironic since your intital comments sounded like they were coming from someone pleading for more JRPG support so all dual console owners should buy the 360 version when in reality 360 owners have been spoiled on a WW basis with the JRPG's this gen.

360 owners spoiled with JRPGs?  How many JRPGs was released on the 1st Xbox?  I'll tell you how many. 0-ZERO-NADA-NONE.  What I'm pleading Xbox 360 owners to do is to support Square Enix and Namco for their efforts for bringing more JRPGs to the Xbox system.  Personally it doesn't effect me with my purchase because I own both the PS3 and 360.  I just love it when 3rd parties be neutral in the console war and let the 1st party games battle it out.

ummmmmmm you do realize........that.......those are........not the same.......consoles......no?

Dang you must be really upset in regards to Tales, Bioshock, Trusty Bell, Blue Dragon, Magna Cartz, Mass Effect, Gears of War, Fallout DLC, GTA DLC, i dont know how id be able to control my anger if i LOVED something and all these shenanigans went on this generation, im not sure what id do.
