Make perfect sense but it's also part of how the gaming market has changed. Back in PS1 and PS2 era, my main gaming habbits were FF games, JRPGs, Fighting games and a few racer or platformers. The latter were from the west, Wipeout, Crash etc but nearly every other game I had around the time was from Japan. They weren't just Sony made, they were SquEnix, Capcom and Namco. They were some of the biggest and highest quality games and they were from Japan.
Now? The highest quality games are from the west (outside of Nintendo), my main purchased and games I play are made in the west. For example SquEnix release 1 FF game every 4-5 years instead of 2, and have seemingly ditched their other JRPG IPs or when they do make them they are of a worse quality (Star Ocean) or mobile cash grabs (Star Ocean) but they do this because of their markets in Japan, while their Eidos department are pushing out superb well made titles.
I think Sony can do well to revive the Japanese output (back in the day it was a lot of made and published games), Asobi team are great developers and should be given a truely great project for them to do, Siren can too but not sure what they are doing since Gravity Rush 2.
Hmm, pie.
