I would definitely Tweet that, if I actually cared enough to have a Twitter account, and if I thought the Xenosaga games were worth porting anywhere.

Weren't there supposed to be 3 more games after the trilogy?

i think it was more like the trilogy was supposed to be 6 games but they ended up condensing it into 3

It's complicated.

The original plans for Xenogears on the PS1 were that they wanted to make 6 games, with an art book released in Japan revealing those plans (and that Xenogears itself was essentially "Episode 5").

Then when they finally got the rights back and were working on Xenosaga for the PS2, it was supposed to be on the same timeline, but then they decided that the original "Episode 1" wasn't long enough to be its own game, so they just made that the opening cutscene of the game while the rest of the game involved the events of what was originally supposed to be "Episode 2".

But then they basically just kept stretching the plot of what was originally "Episode 2" across all three games, so all we really got from the original plan was a truncated Episode 1, Episode 2, and Episode 5. Meaning there's still be three missing.

They kind of shitcanned that, though, because Xenosaga sort of tanked anyway.
