FFVII on the PSN sold 100,000 in two weeks...

What makes anyone think that a remake would sell in the range of 5 million??

My guess, an actual remake (3d/HD and all) would only sell between 1 to 2 million LTD

This is a DOWNLOADABLE PS1 game you are talking about here. Most PS3/360 owners cannot even stomach PS2 graphics anymore, let alone PS1. And besides, the even on the Virtual Console few games have passed the 1m mark in downloads. Plus, FF7 is the highest selling Rpg of all-time isn't it? A new age remake for the kids could have a whole lot of pull if marketed correctly lol

 

hmmm... the original FF7 didn't sell cause of graphics...

But my original comment is misleading because I misread this entire thread, I was referring to FFVII sells if its on the PS3 only.

 

Would FFVII sell over 5 million on all three consoles? yeah, wouldn't be a problem

Yes it did... at least it was one of the reasons... it was a technical marvel when it was released ;)

 

I say if it would be released as a PS3 exclusive it would probably do at least 3 million, from what ~ 1 million would come from Japan alone ;) 5 million +... now I doubt that it could crack that number :|
