Kitase is dreaming about a remake of Final Fantasy VII

During an interview for TV emission "Next Gen" on the french Tv Channel MCM, Yoshinori Kitase, producer of Final Fantasy Series, announced, he hoped work for a remake of FF VII but it will not realize before FFXIII and FF Versus XIII.
And he said that :

Yoshinori Kitase (in french) : "Tous les jours je me réveille et le projet avance peu à peu, bien qu'il ne soit encore qu'à l'étape de réflexion."

"Everyday, I wake up and the project advance gradually, Well, it's just at the step of reflexion."

I say maybe we will hear someone slip some info at E3. I mean the game is constantly getting it's tracks laid and I think we are just now starting to hear the rumble. This game is coming and it's the main reason I bought a ps3 because I knew this game would arrive sooner or later.

Don't be surprised if Sony throw a little money Square Enix's way to make sure it happens.

Final Fantasy VII HD would be a TKO to both Microsoft and Nintendo. The original sold 10 million copies on PlayStation, it's very possible an HD version could surpass that give how gaming has expanded and it's held in such high reguard.

4.3 - Much more!!

if they made a special edition PS3 as well even ppl who own the system already (I would!!!) would buy it again just for that!! so multi millions of systems and easy 13 mil software in its time.. 8 mil first year..at least.. if ya counted the bundles as well..

who else would get another system if they made a special one just for FFVII???!!!

I think it will happen hell i also think that they would redo FF 8 and 9 for the PS3 and add the Advent children movie as a plus for the PS3 FFVII. We will proberly see it in shops for Xmass 2009 or 2010

They've been talking about it a lot lately, which means they're probably already working on it and just dropping hints here and there every so often.
If this happens and as mentioned above, they make a special edition PS3, I am one of those that will be buying a 2nd PS3 just for the limited edition FFVII version.
Make it happen Square stop teasing and make one of the biggest announcements in gaming ever.

-EDIT-

So after I saw the news image for this article I went searching and found this one and got really excited. Then I got to thinking, SE could make like 3 different collector cases for the game: Aries, Cloud & Sephiroth.

Kinda doubt it, since FF7's original crew is needed, and most of them are either working on FF13, or FFvs13, so if there is an FF7 remake it will be worked on after the release of one of those two.(man square has a lot of games in dev right now don't they?)

It's HUUUGE money. Square won't resist it.
I think they want to push their PS3 possibilities further and then create a remake. Also they could use expanded battle system from FF13. Maybe I'm crazy, but for me this sounds reasonable enough to believe in it.

N'import'nawak ?

It's a French expression who mean "it's not true", "it's not possible", "you kidding me", "it's a bad joke". I don't know the real translation to the english word and sorry for my english, i'm French lol.

In France, this remake is very "waited" ? that's the good word ? ^^

17 - wow this game would

completely and utterly destroy the wii and the 360. i believe sony has some sort of publishing rights to final fantasy 7 so it it came out it would be a ps3 exclusive. i can already see the headlines " ps3 sales spike by 500%." final fantasy 7 is aruguebly one of the best rpgs ever made. not only does it have nostalgia value but the story is still the best out of all the other final fantasys.
