Japan's Most Wanted Games according to Famitsu |
Listed in: Wii, PS3, Xbox 360 Tags: biohazard, Capcom, Microsoft, PS2, Sony, Square Enix
Ó
GameFront.de alerts the internet about what games the readers of Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu want the most for this week. We're posting the chart below, all for your voyeuristic needs. Please note though that the numbers in the parentheses after the position indicate the game's rank in the "Most Wanted" charts in the previous weeks.
- (1 / 2) Dragon Quest IX NDS Square Enix
- (2 / 1) Final Fantasy XIII PS3 Square Enix
- (3 / 3) Biohazard 5 PS3 Capcom
- (5 / 4) Metal Gear Solid 4 PS3 Konami
- (6 / 7) Monster Hunter 3 PS3 Capcom
- (9 / 8) Zelda no Densetsu: Phantom Hourglass NDS Nintendo
- (10/ 9) Super Robot Taisen: Original Generations PS2 Banpresto
- (7 /12) Odin Sphere PS2 Atlus
- (14/11) EverybodyÂ’s Golf 5 PS3 Sony
- (11/10) Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors Wii Square Enix
- (8 /17) Devil May Cry 4 PS3 Capcom
- (12/14) Lost Odyssey Xbox 360 Microsoft
- (13/16) Final Fantasy XII Revenant Wings NDS Square Enix
- (15/13) Super Smash Bros. Brawl Wii Nintendo
- (19/15) Doubutsu no Mori [Animal Crossing] Wii Nintendo
- (16/18) Shining Wind PS2 Sega
- (20/19) Final Fantasy Tactics: Shishi Sensou PSP Square Enix
- (18/20) Final Fantasy Versus XIII PS3 Square Enix
- (17/21) Crisis Core Final Fantasy VII PSP Square Enix
- (23/23) Gran Turismo 5 PS3 Sony
9#@%! (Resident Evil 5 in other shores) is planted firmly at third spot, While MGS 4 is hovering somewhere above that.
We'd like to describe the titles in the chart in more detail, but we'll skip that. It seems more pertinent to note that perhaps Microsoft needs more titles like Lost Odyssey, or at least titles that have as much hype as that game in Japan, as it is the only Xbox 360 title in the top 20.
Of course, to keep the console analysis level, we'll balance out that assertion by noting that we're wondering how many of those PS3 titles listed will stay for the exclusive to the PS3. Exclusivity may not matter in Japan but it may make a difference in other regions where the PS3 sees stiffer competition. As for the Wii? Well, we're still waiting for online play. There. Equal opportunity console analysis. Happy?

dmc4 is a 360 game.
And mgs4 will eventually go to 360.
And final fantasys exlusive right are in the air aswell.

i think the largest caveat here is 'remember this is japan' as in : it is different in the rest of the world.
what's the likely release dates of some of these things? i mean i know ff13 etc are about 2 years away, but has it any relevance to the survey do you think?

the japanese want the Ps3 verions of the games, not the x360 versions.

I have a Wii but I dont think 360 owners will care if MGS comes to their machine or not, looking at the amount of 360 releases coming THIS year they will have more than enough to choose from.
Pretty sad state when PS3 owners are having to wait for any decent games and the Ones that are are just old follow ups from the PS1.
Reply
And on the PS3 too.
PS: To those stupid guys who think MGS4 will grace the xbox360. KOJIMA SAID NO! damn, use your ears...
And another PS: For the guy who said that they only wanna buy a ps3 since it's japanese, WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE BUY X360? It's the same, a kind of patriotism, you always find more of what you want in something made by your contry. And anyway I hate the xbox 360 since mine broke after 1 week ( I returned it
And also, for resident evil, it's not exclusive here, but in Japan it is, they said they won't do a japanese version since almmost no japanese persons got an x360... :S pretty weird, I know.

I had a 360 but it broke.
Me and THREE of my friends had a 360 and they all broke.
I have a 360 and a PS3 but the PS3 is better because ------ fill in the spaces.
Usual internet bull*****...
Simple plain FACT is PS3 is not selling and the Elite has just sold out go look on AMAZON etc the whole stock SOLD then go look for PS3 plenty in stock..
JAPAN -
As the 360 sells around 4,000 a week (more when Forza 2 is released in a couple of weeks and then Lost Odyssey) in Japan how do you work it out no Japanese person has got One ? and as the PS3 has dropped to just over 10,000 per week and is still declining looks like soon almost no Japanese person will have a PS3 neither... The only system that is doing well in Japan is the Wii which is currently at 72,000 per week and they cant make them fast enough for the demand..

Anyway, hasnt MGS4 been proven to be a PS3 exclsuive by Kojima himself? Also FFXIII will also be exclusive if you actually read that interview properly, the Fabula Nova Crystallis series could appear on other platforms. And even so, its far more likely to be on the DS, PSP or Wii rather than the 360.

go and take a close look at the interviews again...
most of what you said was never spoken by kojima...

It's about what people want in japan and quite frankly they want the PS3 version
Reply
you can disagree and say that everyone will have an x360 elite by the time the good games for hte ps3 come, but quite frankly I don't think that is going to happen.
People who want to play all these ps3 games arent going to waste their money on an upgraded x360 because theyll have to wait longer to play those great games they are waiting for on ps3.

Not to mention that the US bombed the ***** out of them with a nuclear bomb, and I wouldn't be too quick to support a nation, or any product from a nation that dropped a nuke on me....

I dont' think its fair to assume that EVERYONE will buy either a Wii or 360. I know that I definitely won't buy a 360, probably for the same reason the Japanese people aren't really picking up the 360, because it doesn't have anything I want to play (except Dead rising and even then, that is ONE game)
Your statement that every game coming to the PS3 is an update from a PS2 version is utter bull. Same could have been said for the 260 when it came out. A lot of the games were "Next Gen" ports (which usually only meant better graphics being the most significant change)
I don't think that ANY one of those PS3 games on the Most wanted list will have a PS2 version, so of course it will make a difference to sales. The other thing that will make a difference to sales would be a decent price drop, and when that comes around - paired with the release of the "most wanted" games on that list above, I expect that there will be a surge in PS3 sales. Simple. ^_^

And don't get me started with Oceania, there is less 360/Sony fanboyism around here and the PS3 is selling pretty well. So for goodness sakes, take off that fanboy hat and just concede the fact that both consoles will do well and leave it at that.
The more multiplatform games that come out, the better, the companies make more money so they can go on to develop better games AND we can all play the games we want irrespective of our console choice.

. i feel sorry for the guy though. 360 is a good system, but honestly, it doesnt appeal to me. wii is fun too but im not really into the motion sensing stuff. looks fun, but more for parties, and im not a party guy . thats why i stuck with ps3, because it has the capabilities to me. music, movies, etc. i wanted more of an entire entertainment system, not just a gaming box.

A few points to make your point valid
1. Learn to spell
2. Punctuate (yes that means using more than one full-stop)
3. Get your facts straight.
Blue dragon was always a 360 exclusive. Big deal, it didn't go from PS3 exclusive to 360 exclusive. Bringing up that point was moot.
Japanese people hardly ever buy Western made games. Reason being, they produce enough games in their market that cater specifically to their tastes. GTA doesn't appeal to the Japanese, yet we all know how popular it is in the Western world.
The 360 is rife with games for Western tastes, MS being an American company probably has something to do with that. Because the 360 doesn't cater to the Japanese, they won't buy it. Nintendo and its Wii on the other hand DOES cater to Japanese tastes as well as American tastes (albeit at a younger age group) This explains why it sells so well all over. Hopefully this explains why the PS3 is popular in Japan, not because they're mad/brainwashed/*****ing blind but because MS hasn't done enough to attract Japanese buyers. Simple.

I think that the porting issues from the 360 -> PS3 do contribute to a large amount of the loss in graphics quality. However, I also concede that the 360 probably has better potential for graphics overall due to the Unified Shader Architecture of their Xenium? chip ( I sense a PS2 vs Xbox styled rematch)
It would be good if people could discuss constructively instead of bashing each other's console/exclusivity.

hey man save yourself all the trouble... you don't want to wet yourself cause of all the anticipation... just get yourself a PS3 and just sit back and relax...
anyway... the stars could still align in your favor though... keep your fingers crossed.

The reason why I'm skeptical about monster hunter is this :
Capcom doesn't give a crap about Monster Hunter for Western Audiences.
Making DMC4 multiplatform is good, in the sense that it will definitely sell well. Monster Hunter on the other hand, has a niche audience, and it didn't sell well in the US, nor did it get glowing reviews. It would not be financially viable for Capcom to take a risk of porting MH3 to the 360 AND releasing it to the US/Europe, just based off the track record that the previous MH titles have had.
An English PS3 version is already asking alot from Capcom... Expecting a 360 version (which would be almost SOLELY for Western audiences - since there isn't a high degree of 360 ownership in Japan) would be asking a bit too much.
As for the OTHER games (FF XIII/MGS) I won't outright deny that it may happen, but the odds of it happening are VERY VERY slim. 360 may get a new Fabula Nova Crystalis game, heck it may even get the "Sustenance/Superfluence/Somnolescene/etc" edition of MGS4, but that will be a bit further down the track... which, by then PS3 ownership numbers should have made a bit of a jump. ^_^ Now if only there was a price drop involved as well...
Reply
There is always a chance of it happening though, since it means more money for the companies involved (especially since these titles are GUARANTEED to sell). But before there is an official announcement, everything is just conjecture...
Reply
Metal Gear is NOT a shooter... But coming from someone who acts and sounds like an Xbox fanboy, you've probably never played MGS to know that... Its like saying Splinter Cell : Double Agent is a shooter (and I'm sure you've played THAT one)...

I can see that you all are having quite an argument here..so I was just wondering if I can come to the open and say my share of thoughts too :) !
coming to the consels :
PS3 : I have it,have about 12 games on it already...and to tell you the truth am really disappointed by them...but hey hey wait I didn't finish talkin
I had ALOT of fun playing gundam masou and genji 2 !
also virtua tennis 3 and virtua fighter 5 !
am just saying that am "disappointed" cuz I am not that "Good" at "waiting" -__-....I want to play :

All this goes to show is that the PS3 has games that the Japanese want and that when they get released, PS3 sales in Japan will increase.
Your statement that "most games wanted are neither PS3 or 360 but DS, PSP and PS2" is pointless. Its like saying America + Europe + India has a larger population than China. You're comparing one thing with a bunch of others.

It will never be able to blow away the huge fanbase FF has or the hype that FF13 has.

I think the japanese already have all the games they want for their wii's

if we went by your logic no one would have bought the 360.
believe me, there are other countries that dont like the US, try a bit of europe, asia, russia and middle east
the truth is, it doesnt matter where it came from as long as it gives a great experience

YaMi: Haha, I see you added Super Robot Taisen to your PS3 list, thats one of the main reasons I'm getting a PS3 as well... Pity I don't have as much money as you to get a 360 as well...
As for the Wii games that are coming out, Spiderman 3 will probably be interesting on the Wii (with its Wiimote web swinging mechanic), Mario Party 8 (just for the sheer fun factor) , Mario Strikers Charged seems to be interesting too... Mario sports titles are almost always fun... ^_^
