I came across this old report of July 2005's NPD numbers, and was shocked to see that FFVII was still selling 7,495 units a month by this point, 4 years after the PS2's launch. Hell, even FFT is listed as selling over 2,000. That seems too high to just be stores selling off the last of their unsold copies. I know that the PS1 had a long tail end, but I would have thought that any older games would have stopped being made by this point, but I guess they must have been. I doubt anyone has an actual answer to this, but just something I found interesting.

Edit: This is more copies than FFX sold that month!

Very possible it kept going until the PS1 stopped production in 2006

They were still selling sealed copies of FF9 and Chrono Cross in 2018 - https://www.reddit.com/r/psx/comments/883itz/squareenix_store_having_a_sale_on_sealed_ps1/

Gonna guess they ran out of FF7 copies in the early-mid 2010s?
