  • You mean they're actually learning?

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>1) Used games. They're more prevalent in Japan than here
2) The push. FF7 was the start of the flood over to the PSX, it really was. Saturn and PSX were neck in neck then FF7 came out and all the attention was on PSX. Sure they came out with more games, but it was that which turned the tide, no doubt about it.</div>

<div style='font: 12pt ; text-align: left; '>BK, DKR, Smash Brothers, DK64, WCW/NWO, Majora's Mask, Pokemon SNAP, Pokemon Stadium, and a few others all sold more copies than FF7.

For the record, I found SM64's sales only numbered 265,000, not over 1 million like someone claimed. It's weird, going through the list, most N64 games sold more than 500,000 copies while most PSX games sold between 50K and 150K. Even games like Glover and Quest 64 were beating the 500K mark, PD sold 1.4M, Conker is one of the only N64 games still selling, it sold 8,000 copies in January =P</div>
