Goodjob. Taking 1 franchise as an example and spell the doom of the whole japanese industry.
What about Deadrising, Resident Evil, Metal Gear Solid, Grand Turismo and a crapload other games? Now, maybe you can open your eyes.

By japanese support I mean games made in Japan that usually stay in Japan. You know the constant support not AAA japan companies which come out every once in while.

Wow...okay so by those standards Western support can't include any of the AAA games that make it to Japan, so its mainly indie games with AAA "companies which come out every once in a while."

90% percent of all western games don't sell in Japan. Most are lucky to hit 50,000. They sell by userbase and don't add to userbase. Indie games are not considered third party support and indie in Japan is basically dead. So, I can accurately say that indie is irrelevant comparison and not even on topic.
My main point was useless if notice AAA people are not enough to counter balance the constant third party of Japan-only titles.
Square is said reduce AAA games and more towards mobile. They only release 2-3 AAA games in Japan this year.
Capcom only really relevant AAA is resident evil and said there recent quarter that going to be re-focusing they AAA divisions. The rest of there games flopped mostly because they were to western (remember me, dragon dogma -underperformed- ,street fighter -which was dead this gen in Japan-.
konami enjoy your metal gear game once in while because that's all they produce anymore and they make most of there money from social games and no plans to produce many AAA.
Sony: Gran Turismo. A declining series in Japan and only truly relevant Sony game in Japan.
^ most of these companies stop caring for there own home country with AAA and are dropping there amount next gen. You can't have 4-5 AAA relevant Japanese games a year to be enough to support the PS4. Ps4 is going to need a least Vita current level of third party which it doesn't and priced at 400 it may do worst. Let's face it we are having least AAA games from Japan coming into this gen than any other.
But of course this just an observation about a trend in Japan. Don't take as a personal insult.
