I don't think I have good suggestions for you in particular as you appear to want the sounds back that are simply long gone. Also I don't think you have heard the 1000+ games for each console to be able to state that its standards were higher than on mobile. So speak for yourself, I'm not interested in proving your personal tastes wrong. That mobile gaming has taken over in Japan is a reality we can't change anyway.
For the stuff I'm familiar with: Terra Battle is pretty great, has nice production value and a surprisingly extensive soundtrack still being expanded. And I find Sakuraba's mobile works are, on a per track base, above much of his Tales output. Outside of that I personally don't really care either way, but the awful lack of soundtracks (or preservation in other ways) applies even more to mobile games and other digital-only releases.
