Final Fantasy has always been considered to be one of PlayStation's most beloved and well-renowned franchises ever, and although a lot of the games have been ported elsewhere over time, for many years, the series was synonymous with the PlayStation due to a lot of the most popular games being exclusives. This all started in 1997 when Square Enix was having trouble developing Final Fantasy 7 for the SNES, and as a result, decided to shift its development to the PlayStation, resulting in the game becoming one of the industry's first groundbreaking system sellers.
