It's not even verified by Square that they'll even make a sequel. I've already brought that up once in this thread. And ontop of that, I think they'd make it for PS2 if they did, not the PSP.
On the one (rather cynical) hand it would be an almost surefire way of selling the PSP. After all, history, or at least the general rule-of-thumb, dictates that for hardware to succeed in Japan it must have access to at least one RPG franchise.
On the other (more realistic) hand, I don't think Squaresoft would agree to produce arguably the most eagerly desired RPG sequel ever on something that didn't even match the PS2. If FFVII-2 was to ever happen, of course. An off-shoot like the GC FF game would be more likely.
Edge magazine (a UK multi-format printed publication) recently dedicated one of its 'Making of...' features to FFVII. The way the story was told it seems that there was almost something magical in what happened from conception to birth of the game. One of those instances that aren't likely to be repeated...
