Is the JRPG/FF run over?

Some people seem to forget that very few JRPG's are multi-million sellers. Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest are the only multi-million games I can think of off the top of my head. (Pokemon is different kind of beast) The rest generally sell in the 6 figures with a few others breaking 1 Million.

Also, even if FFXIII "only" sells 5 Million, I believe that's still more then any other WRPG released this generation.

this is very true, and something i forget its that Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest and Kingdom Hearts are exceptions to the rule that RPGs dont sell over 1 million very often, most, if they are good, sell between 500'000 to 800'000 with a few breaking 1 million but FF has consistently for at least 13 years hit 5 million sold, apart from FFVII which sold 9 million
