No, this is the way it goes:

FF1 in Japan = FF1 in North America
FF2 in Japan = Unrelased in NA
FF3 in Japan = Unreleased in NA
FF4 in Japan = FF2 in NA on SNES/Titled FF4 in FF Chronicles
FF5 in Japan = Unreleased in NA on SNES/Title FF5 in FF Anthology
FF6 in Japan = FF3 in NA on SNES/Titled FF6 in FF Anthology
FF7 in Japan = FF7 in NA
FF8 in Japan = FF8 in NA
FF9 in Japan = FF9 in NA
FF10 in Japan = FF10 in NA
FF Mystic Quest was a US-only FF game.

I think that they "skipped 4-6" here in NA cuz me thinks they already had plans to re-release the older FFs.

The chances are that if FF11 doesnt make it here, they will rename FF12 to FF11 for NA, or they might keep it was the same and just release it for PC maybe? That would be okay, I guess.
Chances are that "casual gamers" havent heard much about FF11 anyways.
