Uh, don't western developers always rule the new IP's? It's usually because they kill off all their old ones by milking them to death. (See: Activision, EA)
Distinguishing between new or old IP's isn't important to me, only how great the games are in the end. Nearly all the best Wii games are Japanese, along with the handheld systems. Their presence is much weaker on HD consoles, of course, but overall things haven't changed much. Really, the difference this gen is the PC devs migrating to the HD consoles, while Japan migrated to the handhelds, making home consoles overall much more dominated by the west.
