No they'd still be a huge company, just that Final Fantasy (and subsquently, Kingdom Hearts, Star Ocean 3, etc.) wouldn't be as popular in NA. Final Fantasy 7 is responsible for kickstarting the West to buying JRPGs. |
SE became popular in the West because of sony. they advertised FFVII like hell back in the day. think about it. Nintendo always neutered games (remember Mortal Kombat?) back in the day. if Nintendo were smart (back then), and if Squaresoft stayed with them. we'd see another half-assed FF game in the west. (and KH wouldnt exist). everything in FFVII remained intact when it was released on the PSone: no name-changing, no changed character models, and Barret's dirty mouth.
