Boy Advance, Nintendo
GameCube, and several different models of mobile
phones. Future installments have been announced to appear on the Nintendo
DS, Nintendo
Revolution, PlayStation
Portable, PlayStation
3 and Xbox
360 game systems. It is Square Enix's most successful franchise, having
sold over 60 million units worldwide to date.

As of late 2005, ten games have been released in the U.S. as part of the main
(numbered) series, as well as many other spinoffs and related titles. The unreleased
third entry in the series is an upcoming Nintendo DS release. North American
