No doubt localization helps a lot in places like Spain for example, but in the case of Silmeria I guess the price helped also!

There DS style games must have bombed, but than again, SE is not good at that kind of stuff, I mean who lets his dog rate classical music?

Wow, Crisis Core was their best-performing game in Japan during this time period? Somewhat surprising

I also think it's funny to see the drop between the FF releases on PSP. Everyone bought the first one and learned to stay far away from that crap

I just beat Valkyrie Profile 2 and my god, it deserves more sales. To see it sell less than 200k is disappointing.

What did you expect from them to perform better? Crisis Core was arguably their biggest game for the quarter.

To be fair, you're talking about Europe... which never received the first game before Lenneth and isn't really a big market for SE ordinarily.

How much has FFIII sold in America? If it is about as much as in Europe FFIII is at 2M WW now. SE must be quite happy with it.

Edit: Too late.

I... I'm not expecting anything...? I'm just saying it's somewhat surprising to see a PSP game actually sell

I should've made it more clear, but I was talking about North America. VP2 is one of those epic RPGs that stands up to a big budget FF game very well (may even surpass it) and yet it only sells at a fraction. S-E should've marketed it more aggressively as its one of the most under-appreciated triple A games on the PS2.

The sales for Europe I can totally understand. I couldn't believe it when I found out it wasn't released here until recently.

The Mana series is dead. I feel like laughing, but that feels like it would mock the days when Mana was actually considered a good series.

Oh, well. Ooh, nice numbers for FFIIIDS.

maybe the poor sales will actually give the series a much needed kick in the ass instead?

The 'H' stands for hentai.

Yeah, I hope the FFIV remake sells even better because it is one of the best games ever made.

Sure, if by 'kick in the ass' you mean SE just slaps 'Final Fantasy: ____ of Mana' on the cover of next game.

Crisis Core is a fricking incredible game, not a port/rehash. I god damn hope it sells!
One of the best RPGs I've played in years, and I'm not kidding.

Maybe if S/E got off their duff and actually tried to make a good Mana game they'd see some results. I mean hell when you're getting slapped around by an RPG Maker looking re-release of FF1 at close to full price then you're doing something seriously wrong.

Damn shame about IaWW though. I'll be doing my part when this game gets a US release though.

Looks like FFXI is starting to slow down. Barely accounted for a third of SE's profit this half!

Not a bad thing, IMO. I really want to see this team move on to something else.

Interesting, didn't realize it but yea, SE has released shit to nothing in NA this year.
What an off-year for North American Square/RPG fans. Look at that big decline in SOV from outside of Japan, I wonder why they had no titles prepared for the outside-Japan markets.

Excluding FFT:TLW, naturally. Since, you know, its one of the best things anyone released this year

And by "move on to something else" you mean "move back to Chrono"
