As much rehashed NIS crap and Compile Heart garbage that we get, I can say no, JRPGs won't die. They'll just rarely be any good. Gust also comes out with a lot and while I won't say they're bad, they're not good either. They're decent. Namco Bandai has been pretty good this gen with what's came out so far, and Xillia and Xillia 2 are coming out. I'd say they were the best this gen when it came to RPGs, not including handhelds.

Handhelds have dominated the RPG market and 3DS and Vita both show that to continue next gen as well. Square Enix had meager console offerings but their handheld games were pretty good, even if most of them were remakes and ports, but they had the biggest quantity of atleast decent and sometimes really good games on handhelds. A lot of games from well known/lesser developers or a few from big name developer/publishers here and there.
