6:47AM EST: While Kingdom Hearts 3D has not yet been officially released in Japan, there have been some reports of people purchasing the game early. One 2ch user has uploaded a photo of the game on their desk, showing that there have been early sales, and implying that we'll probably start seeing some videos very soon. Be excited!

That's a desk? WTF!

Woo Hoo! Now we just need more info and the NA release date!

I dont think we'll get NA release with the JPN release but nintendo power maybe.....im gunna spoil myself......i cant wait anylonger!

That's a desk?! They should call Hoarders. Not to take everything, but to make it neater.

Oh well this totally ruins my joke.

Genius.

Also, I'm surprised there is seemingly still no video as of yet.

That picture is hilarious (Laughs maniacally). How did you come across it?

Genius.

Also, I'm surprised there is seemingly still no video as of yet.

 

RIGHT!!!! Ussually we have this kinda stuff days in advanced!!! I mean this is close to the ending of KH (Xehanort Saga) You`d think people would wanna get spoiled.

That picture is hilarious (Laughs maniacally). How did you come across it?

 

A friend of mine made it; she was gonna throw it on tumblr too; I figured I'd share the love :|a

That person really likes eva, also yay for early release!!!

Yes, aftef months of waiting it's finally here! Please Square give us a NA release date soon...

I like that Soul Calibur V is there too!

That's even messier then my desk!

 

Good thing I was sitting on my toilet already while seeing the photo. Yeah, I was laughing THAT hard.

That's a desk? WTF!

 

A very neat and tidy desk.

Yes! You know, two-days-earlier-than-the-official-release-date sales are quite the norm in the videogame market. Good thing KH3D is no exception, although I saw that coming. Okay, now the only thing that'll make the wait bearable is the game's soundtrack getting uploaded on Youtube. By the way, you guys should check this out - link below - while you're waiting. Judging by the latest videos, it seems "Bells Of Notre Dame" didn't make it to La Cité Des Cloches, but it was worth a try. Keep it going, Youtube-user BlueNoctrn!

 

> I really want the NA release to magically be next month.(That way I have time to raise money to buy a 3DS so I can actually play the game! )

Will you be able to trade your current 3ds for the one in the bundle if you get the bundle?

Sorry havn't been on here in a while, Gosh! Only one day to gooo! And people are already purchasing the game! :blink:

When will someone start playing the game...I feel like these pictures are taunting us...

When will someone start playing the game...I feel like these pictures are taunting us...

 

Give the people some time, it is nearly midnight over there. At least I think it is. Besides, we've been waiting this long one measly day won't kill ya. Oh who am I kidding, these last couple of days have been painful for me, I hate waiting.

Will you be able to trade your current 3ds for the one in the bundle if you get the bundle?

 

It's a Japanese bundle, so you can't.

 

I mean once it's localized.

I mean once it's localized.

 

If it's localized. In the past, the most we've got out of this series is post cards and decals over here, not actual NA localized bundles.
