FF7 is considered classic gaming now? God I feel old.
On another note... no duh. There isn't a right platform for it this generation. |
um....PlayStation 3

Hahahahahaha a man that was funny ^__^

Basically my reaction.
Looking at FF13 being slightly below a FF game, and a lot below the first mainline Final Fantasy game in sales...
PS3 would definitly not be worth it.

Actually the PS3 is the best pick for this gen. If it was on the Wii it wouldn't really be much of a remake, the graphics would only be slightly improved. If it was on the X360 sales would be horrible in Japan, where the game obviously would do best at. And that leaves the PS3, it would be the best console to make the game look as good as possible, and it'll do pretty good in Japan (even if the PS3 has sales of over 10 million in Japan I highly doubt the game would sell over 2 million, it is a remake it wont outsell the original, so an install base of 4.5 million right now would be just right, and it's clearly not in the making right now and knowing SE it'll likely take 3 or 4 years to make so by then the install base of the PS3 would be definitely over 10 million). Not to mention it was a console exclusives for a Sony console.
But me personally I'd rather wait till nex gen just so the game would look that much better, I've waited 10 years so I can wait a few more.

Go look back at the bolded sentence in my original post.
Though I disagree. The Wii wouldn't be much of a remake, but it'd be better then the PS3 in that there would be a decent chance it wold make money... and would make more money.
Either isn't a prime choice though... hence why there is no reason they would remake it this gen. Honestly if they "remade" it this gen i'd expect it to be a slight port up to DS or PSP.

Like I said if it's going to be the PS3 it'd take a few years to make so by the time it releases the sales for the PS3 in Japan (and worldwide) would be very respectable. And either way this game is going to make a lot of money no matter what console it get's made on. Releasing it on the PSP would be suicide (since the PSP is horrible for selling software), and the DS would be a bad choice aswell because most owners probably never heard of FFVII to begin with.
But ignoring the install base of a console I don't expect this game so sell over 5 million it's a remake there not known to outsell the original version, especially the highest selling game of the series.
It makes sense to release it on the PS3.
