JRPGs and WRPGs have been in decline since the start of this generation, but JRPGs are the ones in most peril.

MMORPGs have been pretty much the only ones that are helping the RPG genre.

WRPGs have been increasing in popularity.  Fallout 3 and Oblivion have caused their respective series to go from cult status to mainstream popularity.  Even The Witcher, a game that didn't get much pre-release hype managed to sell 1.5 million copies.
