Except the sales on PC weren't poor? 

If anything the baseline on the PS5 being low means it's very easy for things like PC and Switch 2 ports to meaningfully boost the end LTD run for a game like FF7 Rebirth. That extra 500k+ or whatever they will get from PC + another 500k+ from Switch 2 boosts the overall sales of the game significantly, whereas something like say Witcher 3 on Switch 1 which was successful is still only like 1.15-2 million copies sold against like 50 million copies total. 

And I think 500k+ is a bit of a conservative estimate too, Remake and Rebirth ports on Switch 2 in particular will do well in light of there not being a new Zelda game early in the Switch 2's product cycle IMO. 

Yeah. PlayTracker, which offers middle-ground estimates, has Remake at 1.5M and Rebirth at 700k+ on Steam already. The earlier is one of the best-selling FFs on the platform, and the latter is comparable to Clair Obscur at the moment despite a $25 higher pricetag. That's hardly poor.

Sure, dev costs and all, but Sony already moneyhatted them in that regard.

I agree with you, I''ll use me with a example. I bought FF XV (standard and Royal) on Ps4 (both physical) and on Steam, FF VII Remake on PS4 (physical) and on Steam, I bought FF VII Rebirth on PS5 (physical) and on Steam, and even i dont like FF XVI too much, I bought on PS5 (physical) and on Steam with all dlcs.
