Eh, FF15 did 1.5m+ on Xbox as I recall. So I'm thinking 1m+ per FF7R game on Xbox they are missing out on. That's over 3m units between all 3 games. Switch 2 meanwhile will have the specs to run both Remake and Rebirth with relatively little porting work, so Square is also missing out on millions of units between all 3 FF7R games on Switch 2 as well.

PC would do well aswell; and FFXIV is reaching top spot on most played games of the week.

Well, PC did at least get FF7 Remake after a year and a half, and Rebirth is eligible for a PC port after 3 months. So they probably did miss out on some FF7 sales on PC with a late release (SteamSpy has FF7 Remake in the 500k-1m range and I think it would have done well over 1m had it not been a year a half late), but nowhere near as many sales as they are missing out on by waiting years and years for ports to Xbox and Nintendo. If Square does have to wait until like a year after the 3rd game has released before they can port the full trilogy to Xbox and Nintendo, we're probably looking at late 2027 or early 2028 for the 3rd game's release on PS5/PS6 and late 2028-early 2029 before it can release on Xbox and Nintendo, so nearly a decade of waiting since Remake part 1 released in April 2020.
