Forums - Sales - Suqare0Enix is VERY Disappointed in SALES of Chrono Trigger DS!

Vocal fans for a series demonstrate the "Ron Paul Effect". If you check the Internet, or most vocal fans, you swear that they are much larger in number then they are. Then, if you check the ballot box (the market), you find the results are disappointing.

f%$& you Square ENIx you are F·$%&· retarded. stop making crappy remakes every 2 months and realease ffxiii of ffversus. or mekae chrono trigger 2 or KH3 for god sake. i heard they also were dissapointed with dragon quest 4 sales on the ds. Square Enix lost it.



The game has hold 850k+ at a premium price point.

Sorry if a port didn't sell 2m right out of the gate. They need to stop complaining and look at what they did wrong that caused it to "underperform" in their eyes.

Seldom games of this nature are disappointments after selling 850,000 copies.



Leatherhat on July 6th, 2012 3pm. Vita sales:"3 mil for COD 2 mil for AC. Maybe more. "  thehusbo on July 6th, 2012 5pm. Vita sales:"5 mil for COD 2.2 mil for AC."

Wasn't it a port of a really old game with not much improvements or extra content what so ever added????


I think it sold pretty good for what it was...



4 ≈ One

Chrono Trigger should have gone to VC instead.

Well, they should have given the game the FFIII treatment, then it could have sold more to that crowd.

I think it dropped in price some ago.

Still, most companies would be ecstatic if they sold 850k of a slightly-enhanced port.

 

It sold well originally at a premium price point.

Plus, it was released with a Final Fantasy on the PS1. That disc (even though it's said to be sluggish) isn't too hard to find. Anyone who wants the original Chrono Trigger can find it. I've even seen it downloaded for free on an emulator.

I think Chrono Trigger was a once in a lifetime deal, though. I just don't see creators and such coming together like that any time soon. The last Chrono game wasn't up to snuff, in my opinion. Maybe we should just let this one go.



^ Agreed
It wasnt called the "Dream Team" for nothing.
But my stance on this remains the same,which is:
Who do i have to kill to get the sequel?
