That's like asking to end Madden or those generic games that manage to make up the majority of our generic North American market. Final Fantasy is nowhere as generic as these series even though probably manage to profit a hell lot more relatively - lets say, Profit = Revenue - Manufacturing Cost for 1m vs. 1m.

We'll never see those games stop being developed because they're so damn lucrative. The same applies for Final Fantasy.
