Sorarocks93 678 Posted June 16, 2015 I wonder how big will it be. Will they recreate the overworld? Is it going to be an exact remake step by step or something like Ratchet & Clank... This is a big moment in the history of gaming. Official Website btw. http://www.jp.square-enix.com/ffvii_remake/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marth 338 Posted June 16, 2015 That's kinda big knowing how the PS1 was. Remember, this was when gaming was kinda not too popular in the world. I await this line in HD though, as a little treat Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeyMouseSayCheese 1,133 Posted June 16, 2015 .For an old ass PS1 game I say its still an achievment I see it the other way around- for a game that's been out for 18 years on three different major platforms, that seems kinda pitiful. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hatok 6,413 Posted June 16, 2015 That low? That's really not a lot for how long it's been out and how much people love it. That's about how much most successful games sell. Very few thing exceed that. The bottom five best selling video games of ALL TIME sold 15 million. When you consider that it's a JRPG, which is by ts definition is niche, you can see why it's a big deal. Nothing else Square has made sold near as much, with FFX at 8 million being the closest I see it the other way around- for a game that's been out for 18 years on three different major platforms, that seems kinda pitiful. Rerelease sales rarely breach a million, and digital sales aren't very well tracked even now FF7 sold 11 million units on the PS1 (which is why I made my earlier comment about the 90s, this is hardly "news") in terms of digital releases, it's probably unknown 1 Marth reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had assumed the 11 million was counting every sale, including digital. I don't speak Japanese and Sora96 provided literally no details, so I didn't catch that. Good point.

hatok 6,413 Posted June 16, 2015 So is this why Nomura left XV? it's pretty likely funny to think people thought square was mad at him for taking so long Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
