So besides Persona 3 Remake what's the next big game for Japan?

I hope Another Code: Recollection puts up decent numbers for Nintendo to consider another puzzle game like it.

There's Final Fantasy VII Rebirth at the end of February. I personally think it's going to do better numbers in Japan compared to what Final Fantasy XVI did last year

Ah I either forgot about that or assumed it was already out. Not a fan of VII but to each their own (mine being VI,IV and IX with a side of XIV). Game is going to be doing gangbusters.

So you further confirm that you don't follow game sales weekly (yet you are in the sales comments on a consistent basis so there's no way you could miss it) and never see when Square Enix (or any publisher for that fact) releases a new trailer and advertises that the game is coming out in February on the biggest social media platforms. There's literally a Rebirth covered bus in London right now. Sony released a "Upcoming games in 2024" trailer on January 4th (Rebirth is in that trailer). Square Enix announced in December they are re-releasing FF7 Advent Children in theaters in Japan in January and in America in February just before Rebirth (which will include a Rebirth interview to promote the game before release). How do I know all of this? Because I follow "games". Even the ones I don't care about (better to be knowledgeable than lack knowledge). You don't have to be interested in a game, but to act like you've never seen it be repeatedly advertised (You are on ANN and ANN reports on Rebirth yet you don't see Rebirth articles?) is a..... If you want to be under a rock then that's your prerogative. You've got google to answer any outdated questions you have. There's literally a wikipedia page that lists all (and upcoming) PS5 releases. Same for Nintendo and Xbox. You know Persona 3 is coming but not Rebirth. That is hilarious.
