Well, it wouldn't be profitable to remake Final Fantasy 7. Its probably available on the playstation store, it is available on Steam, and people who talk about it probably already have it. The only demographic that's guaranteed are Nintendo and Xbox console owners and that's a serious gamble considering, A. many people with either of those could easily have a ps3, ps1, or computer, and B. those who don't are probably kids who don't know jack squat about Final Fantasy that doesn't involve pink hair.
Their marketing and even game style is centered at its core towards Japanese pop culture, and Japan has been their core demographic. Its been like that for a while, even before the culture dictated the style. Don't believe me? Mystic Quest was released to the western world because the people making Final Fantasy thought their game was too complex for people outside their country. If that doesn't say they're catering to the demographics of Japan, I don't know what will.
