What? You call Fire Emblem huge? The best-selling game in the series has sold like 0.77 million in the west. That is NOT huge. That is actually very poor sales for a game which released during 3DS peak, and is the BEST-SELLING game in the series.
And GT is much bigger in the west than you seem to give it credit for here. It regularly sells over 9 million in the west.
Also Gravity Rush being popular in the west is laughable. It has sold less than half of Fire Emblem: Awakening in the west, which itself sold poorly. Perhaps you're confusing poularity of these games in the VGC community to there actual sales.
I am not saying they are bad games, Fire Emblem, Gravity Rush and many others you listed, but they are far from mainstream.
The only mainstream Japanese games I can think of are Final Fantasy, Gran Turismo, Kingdom Hearts, Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Souls and MGS. Many others like Tekken and Soul Calibur used to be popular, I agree, but clearly they are not right now. In fact thats happening with most Japanese games now.
