As you can tell by Microsoft being in the console business because of Sony......they don't like to be ignored.  There will be JRPG's that they will fund and they are STILL after Japan. Microsoft is funding Platinum Games as we speak for Scalebound and trust me...they will fund a Japanese JRPG. Phil Spencer is interested and he has talked about it in the past whether you know it or not.

"You talk about JRPGs, and there just aren’t as many built as they used to be. I’ll tell you this. We’re in active discussions with Japanese studios about games. I wanna make sure that the Japanese console development community stays strong and grows back to where it was. If we can help, that’s great, by opening up a western audience."

How do you know that Microsoft aren't funding Scalebound because WANT to gain a better ground in the west rather than the east ?
