Isn't it true that most RPGs that aren't Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest don't actually do all that well in Japan? Well, Monster Hunter too, now.

It's true.

I think the importance of JRPG's in Japan is overstated. Hell, Ratchet & Clank nearly outsold the best selling Tales on the PS2 there. It isn't JRPG's that are huge, it's really just DQ, FF and KH.

 

 You guys are making it seem like if the game isn't as big as Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest then it didn't sell well... Just because Ratchet almost outsold a game doesn't mean the game didn't sell well. It just means that the Ratchet sold just as well...

It would be accurate to say "JRPG's sell just as well as other games in Japan unless they are 'blah'"

I mean look at the first 5 games of the Ps2 in Japan. 4 JRPGs they obviously are big in Japan. In the top 10 there are 6 JRPGs.

(the top 4 games which are RPGs outsell the next ten non RPGs...)
