A full PS3 remake of FFVII would consume far more resources than SquareEnix can spare at this moment in time. I mean, it would basically require the same amount of effort to update the graphics, the script and battle system in FFVII then it would to make a new FF game. It would essentially take the place of another, potentially decent installment to the series.
If it is remade, SquareEnix will probably take the cheap route and port it to the PSP with a few extra crappy features that no one cares about (a la FFIV-VI Advance). This has the advantage of them not only putting about zero effort into something that would potentially sell millions, but would also give them an excuse to not release FFVII for download to be used with the PSP's PSX emulation software.
It's what I would do, if I was an ******* cooperations.
