Sad that JRPGs nowadays try hard to reach one million, but good to see the support is still there.

Ni No Kuni is the exception, but recent JRPGs aren't that good anymore.  Although unfair, Final Fantasy 13 tainted and turned people off from the whole JPRG genre.  

Not at all. The reason why Final Fantasy sell where other JRPGs don't is because it actually has a decent production budget. Most JRPGS look cheap (even if they have solid gameplay). Also the generic anime style many of them adopt is not very appealing to people in the west.
