FF and DQ, big brandname...
Name has alot to do with some things.

How many copies does a JRPG have to sell to be successful? FF need to sells millions while Tales, Shin Megami Tensei, and Star Ocean only need to sell a few hundred thousand to be successful. Success is not determined by the number of copies sold but the amount of profit made from the sales
