The series did fine on PS2.  Since Nintendo been involved been nothing but bad news.


The series always shipped in very little when on PS2 on Xbox


It shipped enough to make more games, and enough to get worldwide releases for all games.

 

Wrong. It had the critical acclaim to make more games -- enough to court several different publishers. However, by the third series entry, KT had a painful truth to face. If they wanted to make more Fatal Frame games, they'd need another partner willing to fund it and commit to it long term if more FF games would be made.  None of the other previous major publishers wanted to carry out that burden for KT.  Cue Nintendo buying a rights to the franchise -- the only ones left with the patience and money  to  see new FF projects through.
