I think JRPG is just starting to gain some momentum this gen. There are a lot of JRPG coming out this year as well as those that are recently announced. I think devs will focus more so with the current gen console once the PS2 finally die. Not to mention the PS3 is starting to pick up some steam, which is a great console next to the Wii for JRPG in Japan.
I'm sure there will be more great JRPG in the future.
And no JRPG are not dying, they had a late bad start.
