VGC has PS4 making up 87% of sales.  howlongtobeat.com shows PS4 has 90% of times posted.

Do you think it's good for Square to keep making their RPGs for both consoles, or should they have focused on PS4 only where Japanese gamers and old fans of FF are concentrated?

Lol at this thread. According to VGC, its at 750k. That is definetly worth it. It gives a good impression that SE wants both sides to have the option to play this. 

 

And in a gamer's point of view, dont you want more people to play this game? Especially if its very good? 

 

And I think if XB1 is lacking games for a specific month compared to the PS4 (PS4 exclusives) then a multiplatform game gets a bit more spotlight to the XB1 Players.

Is this exlusivity begging? BTW, I bet the game will be ported to PC as well, presumably in 2018.

Haha lol

Didn't it do pretty good in America?

Of course it was worth it. I'm not into Japanese games but this was the first FF game I bought and I'm enjoying it. How else are they going to build their fanbase on Xbox?

Difficult to say and deals in hypothetical with many variables.

Would making it exclusive mean they miss out on sales, if so how many? Does that equate to the cost of time and resources to port? Would efforts been better served porting to PC?

I think the most telling part will be if Final Fantasy XVI is exclusive or not.
