For sure they didn't buy FF7. Besides the fact that it was ported to pc, at the time the only capable console for such a game was the playstation.

A) Look at the publisher. (It's sony in the west.) 

B) Sega Dreamcast.  It could of been ported to the Dreamcast eaisly. 

C) Sony spent millions of dollars advertising FF7 for square and also picked up a bunch "rights of first refusal" for other planned games.   Final Fantasy Tactics, Bushido Blade and something else.... in the deal.

Saturn... it was the saturn.. and the head of Sega was BFF with the head of Squaresoft back then.. many expected they would switch from the N64 to the Saturn also because it was the leading console in Japan...

Don't forget Sony waved away the extra costs for 3 discs...

Yeah.  Saturn my bad... which was EXTREMLY popular in Japan.

It really was the logical choice... Disc drive, pedigree, best friend...

to say Sony didn't game for FF7 is really if anything disrespecting Sony.

It was a smart buisness move.

Heck it's why I bought a PS1. (Though Front Mission 3, Tactics Ogre and FFT are what justfied that purchase.)
