According to Andrisang, CEO Yoichi Wada explained during the company's annual shareholder meeting that it would not remake the legendary RPG until it makes a brand new Final Fantasy game that "exceeds the quality" of Final Fantasy VII.
In a candid statement, Wada clarified that he feels the current slew of titles in the franchise have not surpassed their popular predecessor in terms of quality. He stressed that while they hopefully would manage this in future, if the team were to remake Final Fantasy VII before this was achieved, then the Final Fantasy franchise "would be done with".

The question on a lot of peoples' minds is 'what defines quality?' Some are speculating that it has to do with sales numbers, which have never been surpassed as far as FFVII goes. But if it's actual quality, who determines the quality of the game? The reviews?
Or is this just a ploy to get old Final Fantasy fans to pick up the new ones in hopes that the sales will get them a remake of their old favorite?
