This Link doesn't show much, but it shows a little of sales for NA..

FF13 will BREAK the term JRPG in America & will sell A LOT....

I think S-E wants it to do that, I feel it can.



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

There is a chance that FFXIII doesnt deliver... then what for the Japanese gaming industry... A radical rethink will be required.

It's like I said, man. They need to look at Western gaming tastes. Yoichi Wada says he has the Western market in mind for future FF and Dragon Quest games, so we'll see how things pan out.



Rockstar: Announce Bully 2 already and make gamers proud!

Kojima: Come out with Project S already!

Just never remember a big selling of FF in NA after FF7

I remember allot of hype on FF10, but then that was it..

And? I really can't see how this differs from western companies. THQ, EA and TakeTwo have all posted red figures lately. Konami and Capcom at least make profit and I don't have to mention Nintendo...
