FF7 Rebirth has reportedly sold half what Remake did in the same timeframe

That is so true.  Back in the day it would be like years before a console game came to PC.  An major example of this would be Halo 2.

To be fair, 'series fans' aren't exactly a very large contingent of people nowadays, and 16 did have more newcomers as per SE's admission.

Besides, even assuming both games are ported to multiple platforms, the sales of FF ports and remasters aren't exactly stellar, with most (including, apparently, Remake) not cracking even one million in any given platform.

Well.. most ports came out quite late to Nintendo platforms, like multiple generations late. And a healthy number of gamers are switching from PS to PC which is growing huge. So as time goes, software splits should change in favor of PC and Nintendo platforms. Port sales will not be as insignificant as before.

I admit that Remake seriously underperformed on PC. Hopefully Rebirth does better, as more and more people are now aware that they no longer have to wait too long to have their favorite console games available on PC.
