I sincerely hope this improves the console situation in Japan.
It might sound silly to place hopes on a single game, but if any single game could do it, this (+XV/KH3) really is the one.
The thirst absolutely is real, I'm seeing people who've never played a Final Fantasy title before getting on the hype train.
Was it ever confirmed the marketing campaign for FF7 OG was $100 million, or was it just the number tossed around?
FF7 OG was absolutely core to Playstation becoming a household name, many don't realise just how huge the campaign for FF7 was back in it's day, there was nothing of it's kind before, how fitting it would be if the remake would bring back the Japanese console market in a similar way.
It's just insane how important this game was/is.
