See!  It wasn't the 360's fault.  Blue Dragon opened bigger than this.  Japanese gamers don't want new IP's.  Why is so much focus put on them???

 

Because every studio wants to create that next great money-making franchise.  It's not that Japanese gamers don't want new IP's.  It's that Japanese developers haven't come out with any truly great new IP's lately.  Remember, all great game  franchises started out as new IP's at one point in time.  Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest, Pokemon, Monster Hunter, etc were all new IPs once.  So obviously it's not accurate that Japanese gamers don't like new IP's.
