Who cares about the sales of past FF games from even the PS2 era?  Things are totally different now.  Even FF13 will be 7 years in the past by the time FF15 comes out.  FF13 was the worst selling FF (non MMO) in Japan, and things haven't exactly gotten better.  Sales of the PS3 and PS4 are far worse than the PS1/PS2.  Every FF in Japan has sold worse than the last since FF8 (again non MMO).  That's a testament to the decline for demographic reasons and people are just moving to handhelds/cell phones for gaming.

 

You Know that Final Fantasy VIII, is the Best Selling Final Fantasy on Japan ? you are Comparing the Best Selling game that Out-sold Final Fantasy 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-9-10-11-12-13-14, to say that the Franchise is Dying ? Street Fighter IV, is what ?, if you take just the Playstation 3 Numbers, he is the Second Best Selling game for the Street Fighter Franchise, so Why did you think that Final Fantasy 15, cannot do this ? did you Saw the Sales of Monster Hunter ?, now Final Fantasy XV, is More Monster-Hunter like with a Better History, Enviroment, Characters, and is the Most Anticipated Video game for Home Consoles in Japan, there is no other game for the Consoles that is so Awaited, My Predictions are 3+ Millions of Life Time Sales for Final Fantasy XV, on Japan.

Are you gonna tell me now consoles aren't dying?  I keep stating facts and numbers and you come back with opinions.  Software sales are dying for home consoles, it's fact.  Million sellers are very rare now, the ps1 and ps2 had over 30 of them, the ps3 had 2.  You want to talk about street fighter 4, you could make a list that takes up the entire page of franchises that are declining rapidly since the PS1/2, while the ones that have increased in sales since the ps1/2 would be really just a few.  Fact is home consoles sales are dying, final fantasy sales are dying.  Maybe FF15 will sell more, it could but it also has a lot going against it.  DQ was able to sell record amounts last gen to go against the decline by re-inventing itself on handhelds and multiplayer, i don't see that kind of difference here.  Maybe it could sell a few hundred thousand more than ff13 but i don't see a lot of upside.
