There were plenty of great JRPGs this past generation, just that they were all on DS or PSP. So far most JRPGs haven't done too well making the jump to HD consoles... FFXIII turned out to be a huge letdown despite its awesome graphics for example. There were a few exceptions like Valkyria Chronicles on PS3, but nothing like the past 2 generations where all the premiere JRPGs were on PS1 and 2. And routinely led the tops of the sales charts too.
And many premiere JRPG franchises have been almost exclusively on portables this gen like Dragon Quest, Kingdom Hearts, Monster Hunter, and obviously Pokemon, and none of that (with the exception of some Monster Hunter titles) looks like its gonna change anytime soon.
Plus, let's face it... traditional JRPGs just seem so archaic next to the newer WRPGs like Fallout and Elder Scrolls.
