No, they just can't build enough. It's not as though building high-rise condos and houses is mutually exclusive. In Japan, houses don't really appreciate. People just knock them down and build new ones with much more ease. There's certainly no shortage of developers wanting for "investment" apartments, it's not the deciding factor. The demand can actually be met there.
