Obviously there are no certain ways to determine how many bought a console purely for a game but:

The n64 sold: 32.93 million units and sold 5 million games coming out in 1999 by then the n64 had already been out for 3 nearly 4 years, most of the hardcore fans had already bought the system most likely. Its a similar story with the gamecube as well based on number of units and when the console and game were released.

I don't think you read my comment properly sir.

I am talking about console sales rather than copies of the game.

I found muting the tv and only watching for the flash made it much easier :) but all fun no matter how frustrating it got.

I am excited to play ground zero as I am a huge MGS fan and 200x bigger gets me very very excited for phantom pain.

Personal opinion and I am probably in the minority but I think it will keep it on life support that bit longer as for a full revival you only have to look at the n64 and gamecube to see that it sells systems but not an insane amount.

That being said I will be picking up a wii u for this haha

crazy number the ps4 has pushed so far this year.

Keep up the good work Sony.

Also side note ps3 is beating xbox one a sign of sony's strength and depth in this industry or MS own failings or both, thoughts?

Use the term "Game Journalists" loosely a lot of them are just opinionated bedroom bloggers.

There are many writers who generally care about the industry and have in depth and detailed opinions on the whatever topic they write about, but we as a culture choose the sites that are headlined with flamebaited.

It's not racism its choosing/siding with something you already know in this case Sony and Nintendo.

Apple seems to be doing well considering they are American: http://appleinsider.com/art...

so its not racism it's just choice.

Naughty Dog continue to be very proactive with its fans, great team that works there.

Very much looking forward to this though the hardship if the 0:00:00 chocobo run and beating all the dark aeons was very stressful.

Can not wait to play blitzball in hd though, gonna recruit Ropp on the Mi'hen highroad and then dominate.

Not suffering but like the Japanese economy it has been stagnating for years.

It's an insanely good deal! TF isn't my kind of thing and it's not very original but te deal is very hard to pass up if it is your thing! I know a few of my friends will jump at the chance.

They gave it an 8.5 but some things they threw up were pretty unjust.

It's a great game and homage to the older final fantasies, still play it to this day.

This website gets it's
Grandia 3
Skies of Arcadia
Vagrant Story
Ff 9 (this x 1000000000000000)

Would have also liked to see Chrono Cross on there to.

Quite frankly even though the sales are good and of course the ps4 will release some killer jrpgs I don't think it will.

The Japanese market is a strange one atm i am not sure what they want other than handhelds.

That's an insanely good deal but again TF isn't the type of game I would play but I know a few people who will jump at the opportunity to buy it .

Isn't this technically an old story? If n4g was up when ff 7 was made it would be new.

Square never hid the reason why they defunked to Sony so I don't know why this has been posted?

I think the best thing about Final Fantasy is everyones ability to choose a unique top ten based on how they experienced each game.

E.G 8 is my favourite followed by 9 not cause they are perfect games but I connected and followed the story much more closely and when I was playing it my best friend at the time was too so it was a really enjoyable experience.

In short no one is wrong for choosing a different top ten than you.

getting in the way of an avalanche thats gaining momentum is foolish you can't slow it down but let it run its course.

Best thing MS can do is stay away from it and try and do its own thing.
