you people really need to look at the sales number of JRPG last gen.....the only ones that really sold over mil are FF, DQ, and Pokemon series...yeah couple other but not much....WRPG just gained a bit of popularity and JRPG's sales compared to WRPG aren't so great which is making people think JRPG are actually losing popularity or JRPG fans are moving to WRPG....
let's give some example....tales series...only ONE sold over a million.....the rest mostly sold around 300-500K area....tales series is still considered to be good...
.Hack series....have not sold more than 400K per game...but yet it's still a good JRPG and no one ever said it was a failure of a JRPG
Persona series....highest selling was Persona 4...sold 500K....and was considered awesome JRPG...and never was it considered to be a failure in sales area....
but this gen i hear people talking about LO, BD, VC, etc all having low sales and what not....yet they seem just about the same sales level as last gen....the only difference between this gen and last gen is that there isn't as much quantity of JRPG as last gen...
