The genre you'd be entering
Your set
Your set clusters on Classic (4 of 6) and JRPG (4 of 6).
The winners
Winners here lead with JRPG + Turn-Based Combat, priced around $30. The breakout hits carry Turn-Based Combat + Fantasy; a typical game here doesn't.
The era
None of the games you compared shipped in the last two years; the newest is from 2019. That says more about your picks than about the market, so add newer similar games to read the timing.
