Square Enix’s New President Plans To Review The Entire Company - ARR incert future?

Actually, I think there's a better explanation than just "skip the PS1".

- Final Fantasy I to VI weren't released worlwide at first. Since FF VII was a major succes, SE could surf on it to give us 6 existing games (With very little cost).

- As for the "why PS2 games and not PS1". SE said that they wouldn't remake FF VII because latest SONY console still allows you to play it, since PS2 and PS3 are PSOne compatible.
That's not the case for PS2 games, and it offers a whole market for HD remake (That's probably why everyone is doing HD remake of PS2 games)

But we're at the dawn of a new console generation, with a PS4 that can't run PSOne games anymore, and if this statement is true(http://www.engadget.com/2013/02/21/s...ansfer-to-ps4/), actual PSN games won't work on it either.
(On an off-topic note, I think it's a real bad idea...)
