I feel in a similar way to the OP.

On consoles FFXIII has been the only one that has amazed me & I'm sure Lost Oddessy would have too. But thats just 2.

We are 4 damned years into this generation and 1 JRPG has amazed me & I am assuming lost oddessy would have.

The rest have been on DS and 2 AMAZED me on it, that being Dragon Quest V & FF14 Remake -- remakes

So in my top 5 JRPG of this gen (I don't count VC as a jrpg):

1. FFXIII
2. DQV Remake
3. FF4 Remake
4. TWEWY
5. SO4 (of what I have played)

So out of the 5 when 2 are remakes it pretty telling how dire the situation is this gen. 

The top 3 make up for the bad quality on the other cus both FF13 & FF4 are amongst my top FF's of all time & DQV was better than FF12, 8, 7, 9 for me which is astonishing as I expected nothing from it.

But again 2 of those are remakes of 20 year old games

There have been good ones though -- Shin megami tensei DS games, mario & luigi ...... again all on DS.

I blame the console market in japan.

EDIT: To be fair those remakes were the first time I played those games. But technically they weren't brand new products.

EDIT 2: oh and I'm not one of those who suddenly moved to WRPG cus they have all pretty much been mediocre barring the legendary & epic Elder Scrolls IV : Oblivion!
