Remake Final Fantasy VII topped the Japanese retail charts with sales of 702 thousand copies in the first three days, the publication said Famitsu. A few years ago Final Fantasy XV started with about the same circulation – she found 716 thousand buyers.
Digital sales are unknown, but experts predict that they will be above average in Final Fantasy VII Remake amid the situation with the spread of coronavirus and the introduction of an emergency mode in the country.
The original Final Fantasy VII for the first PlayStation found at the start in 1997 more than 2 million customers.

Demand for Demand Dramatically Increased in Final Fantasy VII Remake Week Playstation 4 in Japan. Console sales nearly quadrupled – from 19 thousand to 79 thousand.
In addition, PlayStation 4 for the first time since the release Monster hunter: world, that is, from the beginning of 2018, appeared on top of the weekly iron charts.
This happened against the background of the lack of Switch in free sale. In the reporting week, Nintendo shipped a very limited number of consoles to Japan to cover a small portion of orders in some retail chains.
As a result, Switch indicators in the charts collapsed catastrophically – from 155 thousand to 25 thousand systems. A few days ago Nintendo announced resumption of supplies, but there is no need to talk about full satisfaction of demand. Stores are already notifying users of new lotteries with a draw on Switch purchase rights.
When the situation with production and supplies from China is fully restored, it is unknown.

For comparison, Pokemon sword and Pokemon shield sold 3.56 million copies in five months of market presence. Another super hit for Switch, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, made 3.64 million copies in retail in a year and a half.
Finally, Famitsu informs that the demand for a remake Resident evil 3 in the second week, collapsed by 82%. The current sales of the game are 224 thousand copies, less than the starting results of Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 7.
