Why the PS3 will not last long, let alone 10 years.

FF hasn't lost any steam. Both FFXIII and Versus XIII will achieve 3 to 5 million sales in Japan on PS3 this gen and GT5 will achieve 2 million + sales in Japan on the PS3 this gen. There's no doubt about it. And that means there will be a bump to at least 5 million PS3s sold in Japan following the release of FF Versus XIII there's really no doubt about it.

FFVII sold 3.97 million in Japan, X sold 3.0 million, and both of the first GTs on PS1 and PS2 sold over 2 million in Japan.

XIII is not VII... it never will be...

yes VII sold nearly 4 million X sold just 3 million and XII hasn't even sold 3 million woo! that's keeping that train chugging along...

You have statistics and facts going against you here... you haven't even come up with a plausable prediction yet...

   FFVII has not sold 4 millions in Japan and FFX has not sold 3 millions. 

   Original FFVII sold only 3.2 million in Japan. Original FFX did 2.3 million and original FFXII did 2.3 as well. FFXIII is expected to do the same. There is no decline in sales of the series in Japan. These 4 millions for VII and 3 for X came from all of the additional re-releases these games got, and for some stupid reason vgchartz combines all these versions into one. Famitsu and Media Create dont do that, I dunno why vgchartz does.

   Final Fantasy has lost some steam during the PSone -> PS2 transition. But right now, FF series is as popular as it was in 2001.
