What does this question have to do with anything I've posted? Seriously?
I'm pointing AAA games sell better elsewhere, which is the truth, if Japan lacks AAA games being developed there nowdays, and the only one, as you are implying with this question, is also selling better elsewhere, your question is also supporting my post, even not being related to anything I've actually said.
AAA games aren't focused on the Japan audience primarly anymore, even a Japanese AAA game.

Thanks for agreeing.

Nothing is selling up to par in Japan at all, but Nintendo and Monster Hunter stuff basically at this point. 

This isn't even just about AAA games, this is about Japanese games period. A lot of these developers are going to be forced into making iOS/Android games because there is no foundation for traditional gaming in Japan left outside of Nintendo and they're too damn stubborn to support Nintendo I guess. I hope that changes with the Switch, but who knows. 

The West is not going to be a messiah for Japanese gamers either the "dudebros" here don't give a poop about some game with some feminine looking boy band reject on the cover. If Square-Enix wanted to make a fantasy game for the Western audience, they should watch some freaking Game Of Thrones. That's the shit people in the West want to see, not some road trip bromance with Korean J-Pop Stars. 

Until we have actual numbers showing how well the game sold in the west, it would be nice if you'd tone down the trolling and generalizations. They don't help your semblance of argument one bit, and they make my eyes bleed.
