The real question and the only relevant question for the consumer is this. Are you a Final Fantasy fan foremost, or are you a JRPG fan foremost. Thus far this generation the two have been mutually exclusive. The genre fan would be displeased with Sony's apparent lack of progress. The player that is merely a fan of that particular series probably doesn't care if the PS3 gets anymore games in the genre anyway.

Let us not mince words Sony has done a horrible job, and there just isn't a decent excuse. To be this far behind this far into the game. There are no words for this beyond arrogance and incompetence. The PS3 is literally dead last behind three other consoles on the market, two portable gaming devices, and your PC and your mobile phone are probably doing better.

So when someone tells me they are a fan of the genre, but they only own a PS3 and think thats good enough. Simply because it will have Final Fantasy some day in the distant future. The only thought I have is that this person is basically full of it. A real genre fan would have taken a butter knife to their wrists ages ago. They wouldn't be satisfied with just one game, or be willing to sit on their hands for two years.

I honestly have never understood the mindset that you buy a console for one game and one game only especially if that game is years away. That to me is a deluded mindset, and probably an unhealthy one.
Wow. You have a way with words. I couldnt have said it better myself.
