I mean, for games like Dragon Quest, Final Fantasy, Shadow Hearts, or Shin Megami Tensei like games. It seems like all of the good one's are on PS2, which isn't a problem. But I would hate to see them fade away, and I recently got rid of my 360. I still game constantly, but only have a PS2, PSP, and DS. I am planning on getting a PS3 within the next month or two. But what is this generations best system for JRPG or RPG gaming?

The DS and PSP offered the best JRPGS this gen IMO.

The Nintendo DS is. Many Japanese companies do not do well on consoles so they moved to the extremely large handheld market in Japan. It has Chrono Trigger, The World Ends With You, Final Fantasy 3 & 4 and a bunch of spin-offs, Dragon Quest 4-6 + 9 and a bunch of spin-offs, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days and Re:Coded, Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor and Strange Journey, Golden Sun, Mario RPGs and a crapload more titles.

Yeah, sad to say, it's the handhelds. Developers really need to step that up on consoles.

For this generation I believe that would be the DS for the most part while the other systems have a few good ones here and there that you can't get on the DS, but the DS would be a nice one if it was the only JRPG system you could buy.
