-to summarize:

Square asked on twitter if anyone would be interested in a FF VII remake, they got so many tweets that they had to tell there followers to stop tweeting them.

LMAO!

4-5 million?

you mean 10million + on ps3 alone if they do a FFVII remake

Uh, the original FFVII didn't even sell 10m.

because no one bought it, it was pirated like a mofo.

It did. The ps version sold around 9.72 million and that figure was updated a very long time ago.

Factoring in the International version, which is released in Japan only, that will be another 0.59 million.

Factoring in the pc version (which is not accounted for and is still on store shelves today), the latest ps figure and the newly released psn download, it would have comparatively gone way over 10 million.

Probably mid 10 millions to might be possibly even 11 million ?

9.72m is actually Square's old shipment figure for FFVII.  And it included the International release (Square combines rereleases in their IR reports, unlike most Japanese companies).

Counting the year later PC port and MUCH later PSN rerelease, then yeah FFVII would be past 10m.  But the "original FFVII" still isn't.

besides, if you add the people who played it through pirated means,

that means one thing.

 

The audience that have played FFVII could possibly be more than 15 million.

Figures for FFVII

Original PS version (9.72m, includes International Version) + PC Version + PSN Download Version = possibly around or more than 11m

If you take into account that a rought estimate of at least 4 million ppl have played it through pirated means, you are looking at a possible more than 15 million people who have touched FFVII.

That is massive.

so the "original" FFVII did not sell over 10million. and your point is ?

 



If the old ganme already is on PSN, what's the point of a graphical upgrade?

Uh, that what I said is correct?  What's "your point" or whatever?

I looked up shipments though, and it's now managed 9.8m worldwide as of the end of 2005.  Probably rounded, but it could've gotten a good 600k off the PSone Books releases then.
