Sony let support of the JRPG genre go this generation as it appears they wanted to totally get all of what Microsoft had, and target the FPS genre. They focused on that, and figured the JRPG stuff would show up. Conversely, Microsoft went after it, in addition to still staying on the FPS genre also. End result is that JRPGs have not been this strong this generation, because apparently the console maker interested in them (Microsoft) isn't the console maker JRPG fans have been interested in.
