Now I can say for sure that we won't get a chance to see Dream Drop Distance until next year when we all die. But there's another game, which if you saw the Secret Ending of BBSFM, Birth by Sleep Volume II. I think we might just get a chance for it to come out sometime this year. And I can support this.

 

But before I begin, here's just some things I want to point out. If BBSv2 comes out on the PSP2, we will NOT see the game until whenever. But if it manages to come out to PSP, then it's no problem to get it this year. This will probably come out before Dream Drop Distance, but I'm not entirely sure about this idea if it comes out on the PSP2. And also, if it does come out this year, Japan's only getting it. We have to wait, which sucks >.<

 

First off, it's only Feburary. The year pretty much just started. There's plenty of time to get a game here.

 

I've notice that people have been complaining that it won't come out this year, mainly due to the fact they think Nomura said he wants one KH game out every year. That's not true. He wants AT LEAST one game out every year. He's not saying we're going to get one game and that's it for the year. Check out Recoded and Birth by Sleep Final Mix. Both came out in the same month, which was last month. Technically, they are two games and therefore it means that we can get more than one every year. We still have a chance for another game.

 

However, this is what is going to help BBSv2 come out faster. Even if it is another game, it's just a branch off of Birth by Sleep, although it seems it will cover plot holes that go into future games such as KH1, 358/2 Days, KH2, and beyond KH2 (As we saw Kairi with Hayner and his gang at the mansion of Twilight Town. That's actually impossible for it to have been shown in KH2, mostly because Kairi reaches them for a few minutes, only for Axel to come and hauler her away). Meaning it will probably use BBS engine, along with the same battle system and Commands. And because this game will branch off, Nomura can easily reuse character models and world (Which they will). It's less time to reusing stuff instead of having to start over. Reuse = Less time to make the game, more smiles to the fans, and some money in Square Enix's pocket.

 

And finally, here's something you may of not noticed. When you saw the Secret Ending, you saw scenes from BBSv2 that will most likely be shown in it (Remember, we won't see everything, or some things will be change, like they did with BBS). But that's just it, we saw scenes from it. It could mean they are in development in BBSv2. Nomura most likely had this idea just around summer. He would then decide to put a preview of BBSv2 after announcing BBSFM. That was in September, right after the English version of BBS was released. If there was a start of development in September, then they could of worked on the game for 5 months. That doesn't seem like a lot of work but that's almost half a year of work! That would be great progress into getting this game out as soon as possible. If I could make an estimate, they can probably get BBSv2 out in Japan by November, at least that's what I think.

 

Does this mean I'm right? No. I don't doubt it coming out later with all their other games they are making, not to mention Dream Drop Distance. I'm not sure if they are working on it, even to begin with. But if they are, I think we can expect the game sooner than we all think.

 

Yes? No? Maybe? Lobster?

Oh, I'd like to point out that while Re:Coded uses BBS mechanics, it would be physically (Digitally?) impossible to 'copy and paste' stuff from BBS onto the PSP.

You're saying that I bring games that prove nothing, but you do the same as well ._.

 

First off, I'm talking about topics, not games. Just throwing that out there for you.

 

Second, I was talking about a KH being released every year, and suddenly start going off on KH3 not being released anytime soon. Not only did that not make any sense, but that's not what I was implying within my thread.

 

And third, I did make a perfect example. Everyone expected Assassin's Creed III to be shown at E3. Out of the blue, it's a completely different game. It was the first announcement. This was in May. And the game came out in November. That was 4-5 months later. It is IMPOSSIBLE to make a console game in that amount of time (unless you wanted the shittest game ever made, be my guest). So it had to be in development much before going to E3, thus proving my statement.

 

I don't think making a ignorant post, only to tell me the opposite, was a good idea.

 

Also, it seems very odd to release a game that fills the gaps (from the looks of it) for Birth By Sleep/1 while solving alot of the series mysterys before Kingdom Hearts 3D where the plot seems to have gone out of whack and is the prologue to the final conflict.

 

Like I said before, DDD will directly lead into KH3. Any plot holes/gaps/etc, will be explained in KH3. Idk, maybe that's just me.

 

@KeyofVentus

For you, I will split you up, but will use DoortoDarkness' post to respond to some of it, mainly because I don't feel like retyping everything he says.

 

Okay first. IT WILL NOT JUST BE CUT AND PASTE! I've taken multiple programming classes and let me tell you, IT'S NEVER CUT AND PASTE. It's a separate game. plus if it's for the NGP it'll need different programming entirely. If it's just cut and paste we'll end up with the origional BBS in a different order. BBSv2 should include different worlds as if it were the same worlds with just Aqua it would suck major.

 

First of all, what he meant by copy and paste was taking all the models and features in BBS that they would use in the sequel and perfect it, NOT START FROM SCRATCH.

Second of all, you might have taken multiple programming classes but I don't think you've ever programmed a sequel for an actually published game. Its not gonna be on the NGP because it doesnt support UMDs and Disney has their panties in a twist and wont allow their content on PSN. I dont know why this is but obviously some people are just weird.

 

 

Really dude? You really think I belive that 3D will be like some tetris game? (don't get me wrong I love tetris) but what I was saying is that if they already have test runs going they're far enough along so that there's no reason for anyone to doubt how close it is to being released.

 

That's why I said it wasn't a Tetris game.....

 

And really, that's just a set of tests. When you edit something, you have to test it again. Nomura is going to change things up. Therefore, he's going to have to test things out. Those are just tests to begin with. Really now.

 

Okay, you have a good point, it would be smart to do that. But they'll fill all plot holes before KH3, if they did it before KH3D then it'll just end up looking like 3D is 3.

 

Read my comment above.

 

Okay, you're right, but I was only assuming it was in production, I appologise for any confusion. But assumed that since it was technically annouced by the secret video that is might have been in production.

 

You also cant just say development has just started because it was just announced (which hasnt even been done formally). For all we know its been in dev for months which is usually what they would do with any game period.

 

Only about a week or two ago Nomura stated that he's thinking about having their appearences(clothes) change halfway through the game.

 

And that's why I said it.

 

All I'm saying is that your logic is flawed to the extreme. If BBSv2 isn't in production, then there's no way 3D will come out after it. Plus please stop acting like everyone else that doesn't agree with you is an idiot. I'm sorry if you don't agree but all I do is state known facts(for the most part: aka; when I'm wrong about something)

 

If my logic was so flawed to a high standard, then you wouldn't be agreeing with two of my statments. Just saying.

 

Again, no proof on BBSv2's production. Either cite your sources or don't bother trying to convince me otherwise.

 

Yeah, because that was my intention all along. Anyone else who doesn't agree with me must be humiliated by me and then be sent to the gas chambers for execution. I stand almighty. My opinion is clearly above everyone elses /sarcasm. Dude, stop accusing me or others of things and just discuss what we have here. I didn't make anyone look like an idiot if they disagreed with me. I simply responded with my thoughts in my own nature. Since you are thinking this, that must mean you're taking this negatively, which you really shouldn't. Afterall, it's just my THOUGHTS AND OPINIONS, nothing else. And I will stick with them through the end....well when we get more details on this game.

 

LOL. Please don't lie to me that all you do is state known facts. Because I know for certain that's not true. Not one bit.

 

Oh, I'd like to point out that while Re:Coded uses BBS mechanics, it would be physically (Digitally?) impossible to 'copy and paste' stuff from BBS onto the PSP.

 

That's not what I really meant. They would recycle some stuff, but they would also do it with games that go to other systems. That's just remodeling. Sorry if I didn't explain that.
