Sales have dropped substantially in Japan since FF7. America didn't realize what an RPG was until Square advertised the hell out of FF7.
Here's some Jap sales for our viewing pleasures:
Final Fantasy VII - 3.26
Final Fantasy VIII - 3.60
Final Fantasy IX - 2.86
Final Fantasy X - 2.74
Final Fantasy X-2 - 2.00
Final Fantasy XI - somewhere over 0.3 million

MagicboxGood point, you. But, in defense of this, FFIX was visually different from the others which brought the game down and the fact that it was released at the end of PSOne's life. FFX is currently the top selling PS2 game(until DQVIII) and FFX-2 is basically a side-story, but it's still second best selling PS2 game. And FFXI, it was online and needed the harddrive.
Forgot about this:
FC Final Fantasy III - 1.40
SFC Final Fantasy IV - 1.44
SFC Final Fantasy V - 2.45
SFC Final Fantasy VI - 2.55

Looks like the playstation FF still sell better than those on Nintendo's system Gup=1 Grey=0. I'll take on more challenges.
