    Perfect example would be Sonic the Hedgehog for PS3 adn Xbox 360, both got platinum releases (or whatever the equivalent is on Xbox) due to their sales

    And that was probably wrong which you would have noticed if you read Mike's post

    I think he means Mixt. Though I still don't understand his point.

    I'm really not sure what you're confused about. Is it my original post or what?

    Just this part:

    When it's apparently not even close to being one of the lowest selling games. Like, I'm not even arguing with your opinion: I'm just confused by the numbers ._.

    Ok, so, from this page, the sales for the Final Fantasy series (main games only) are:

    FF - 0.40 million
    FFII - [the site was missing this one for some reason]
    FFIII - 1.4 million
    FFIV - 1.44 million
    FFV - 2.45 million
    FFVI - 2.55 million
    FFVII - 9.8 million
    FFVIII - 8.15 million
    FFIX - 2.86 million
    FFX - 6.6 million
    FFXI - [the site was missing this one too]
    FFXII - 5.2 million
    FFXIII - 6.9 million

    In order from highest to lowest:

    VII
    VIII
    XIII
    X
    XII
    VI
    V
    IV
    III
    I

    So yeah, XIII was in the top 4 in sales. Top three actually.

    My data had X above XIII, but my search was hardly thorough. Either way I feel less crazy now, so thank you.

    I think those stats are missing a few sales, I generally see FF7 put closer to 11 million sales, and I'm fairly certain FFX sold something like 8 million

    Depends who you ask, because of the way they get their data. Those are guesstimates to a degree. And I wouldn' t really compare pre-VII and post-VII since they weren' t released worldwide before that.

    I' m slightly depressed by IX poor sales >_> though I guess they' re understandable. By the time they released it here people were already having fist fights in stores to get a PS2 and FFX was all over the previews in gaming magazines, they missed their train.

    It's almost poetic how FFIX went back to SNES era sales along with everything else in the game
