Hmm no wonder many think that FF VII Remake is going to be the game to revitalize the console market in Japan. It was actually giving Pokémon a bit of a run for its money back in the day. But man Japan sure has changed.
Nowadays Nintendo, Bandai Namco and to some degree Capcom with Monster Hunter and SE with DQ are the ones on top software wise and the 3DS is the only hardware that has passed any reasonable barriers. I guess Nintendo is just more in tune with what the Japanese want these days.
Also awesome thread!

That was Pokemon's second year. Pokemon sold over 10 million in the end, FF7 sold 1/3 of that. FF8 actually sold more.

I actually meant just in the data supplied here for the year shown. I just thought its an interesting contrast to what we see today.
