What does America have outside of FPS and RTS over Japan anyway? I can't think of much.. even the Bethesda RPGs are essentially FPS, Fallout especially.
MMOs, Racing..
Sport games too I guess.
Outside of WoW, I'd say Japan is pretty close to America in terms of MMOs. FF11 is still the 2nd most played MMO in the world IIRC. If you count Monster Hunter, that is one of the biggest selling franchises in Japan these days. But yeah, that is an edge to America but not a huge one
I'd give racing to Japan. Gran Turismo, Mario Kart and F-Zero beats what America puts out.
Sports games are kinda a wash. Japan does better Soccer and baseball games, but they don't even attempt others like basketball and American football.
