Do you think a PS3 FFVII remake would outsell FFXIII?

Would it be exclusive? If yes, I believe that is a large pro.

 

Still, remakes don't sell that much. FFXIII on Ps3 is going to sell what? 3 million? 4 million? That's a lot.

 

A FF7 remake would probably be large (ala 1.5-2M), but it simply cannot match a completely new game, no matter how much advertisement and such it would get.

 

As a general note, remakes don't outsell new installments. That (almost) never happens. If it happened with Final Fantasy, there would be something seriously wrong happening to the series.

 

 

 if a new ip like Uncharted can sell 2.5million copies...FF VII lol wow not even going to argue

 

 I stand by my point. Uncharted sold awesome, but it was an exception from the rule.

I may have undershot FF7 though. I see now that FF3 (DS) sold 2.25M and that IV will sell the same. FF7 is a game that could equal that, if not beat it. 2-2.5M is more reasonable.

Still, FF13 (Ps3) will be selling 4-5M or something. There's no chance a FF7 remake will beat that.

I can't think of any console remake that has sold over 2M, can you?
