First of all, I live in Europe which has a smaller chance of getting JRPG's than NA. Sometimes it just takes years...but I am talking about my psp experiences.

titles which have yet to be confirmed to be released outside japan (correct me if I am wrong):

-bravely default

-rune facotory 4

-monster hunter 3

-monster hunter 4

-...

Good thing is we'll get fire emblem. I'd like to have that game.

RF4 and BD will be localized, and MH4 most likely will be as well.

Bravely Default could be one of the biggest system sellers in handheld history

There are two reason why this would not get localized

1. Square closes down

2. Square goes crazy

Doesn't have to be confirmed, due to the hype alone I am sure Bravely Default will be localised for NA/EU, Monster Hunter 3 was already confirmed for Europe, MH4 probably will be localised too. I agree though, a lot probably won't make it to Europe, Etrian Odyssey 4 for e.g. I don't see it getting localised for Europe, but maybe for NA.

3DS plays DS games, thus has access to a gigantic library of amazing JRPGs.

Vita is better for everythingthemajormayor

It's better at getting no games that's for sure.

none of them... pretty lackluster on both fronts. 3ds will eventually get pokemon...so i guess it wins by default.

Monster Hunter 3G was never confirmed for Europe (or NA). There's only been a couple magazines claiming otherwise, but months have gone by without Capcom uttering a word.

Yeah, it isn't coming, I don't believe MH4 is either.

Neither currently. The current quality of the 3DS JRPG's is mediocore at best though it has some good ones slated for release in the future. The Vita doesn't have many original JRPG's announced for it currently.

Depends,

You looking for New Games? Cause for both 3DS and Vita there isn't much in the JRPG department for those two.

Top ones I can think of for 3DS and Vita are Disgaea 3 and Tales of Abyss 3D.

If you want Past Games, Vita's Shop store has LOADS of JRPG PSP titles to choose from like All the Disgaea Games or the Persona Games or Phantom Brave and the 3DS shop as a few, but with it's backwards compatiblity you can go and try to find some JRPGs that were on the DS and play them like Radient Historia or Solatorobo.

The only JRPG that looks remotely care worthy on handhelds right now is Bravely Default and that game is oldschool style.

Right now I'd say it's far too soon to tell either way. Though I'm certain both will have a good lybriary of Jrpgs in the coming future.

Neither of them really excell in this area at the moment. Probably the 3DS has a few more than the Vita, and have a few more on the horizon too. But if you're intending for only jrpg gameplay, you may as well wait until there is a bigger library to judgge by and then see which has more/which has the ones you prefer.

Yeah Capcom isn't exactly friendly when it comes to localization.

(still waits for Miles Edgeworth 2.)

Bravely Defauly => 3DS

Crossel777

That old school style is the main reason why it is so amazing and why it is my top anticipated game in years

Reminds me of my still best game of all time, FF9

Old school is a billion times better than the new garbage like FF13, that are a million steps back in every way

Thank god there are still some old school games that actually are amazing and not "innovative" garbage

I would gladly get a 3DS even if Bravely Default was its only game, it seems that amazing
