No, the genre JRPG is on rapid decline except in JAPAN.
I predict 5.5 million sales in total with 4.5 million on ps3 (2.5 million JP 0.8 million NA 1.2 million others, 1 million on Xbox 360 (0.6 million NA 0.4 million others)

 uhhh not on the handhelds my friend in fact a lot of them sell pretty well there(ex. Crisis core, KH 358/2, Pokemon etc). Plus regardless of what u amy think FFXIII is still pretty big worldwide and is going to sell at least a million in NA on both platforms


Yes, the genre is still very popular on handhelds (which is the dominating platform in JP), but there isn't any JRPG hit 1 million on HD console yet.

and to darthdevidem01, the reason I think it's on decline is lots of less famous JRPGs could hit a million with ease last gen, but games like Last odyssey is yet to reach 0.9 million this gen.

And I believe FF13 is still going to sell extremely well, about 6 million, but won't be as successful as FF7.
