Because back in the SNES to PSX days Japan made a very distinct brand of RPGs defined largely by Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest. With a few veriations such as Secret of Mana and Tactics Ogre etc. Where as Western developers branched off in a seperate direction with games like TES, Fallout, later Ultima and eventually Infinity engine etc. And the labels just kinda stuck, even tho even back in the day their was some overlap especially in the dungeon crawler sub genre.
