OMG, how's it going everyone?  I was playing Tales Of Xilia today, and I was in Sharilton City, and since I'm the type of RPG gamer that loves interacting with the NPC's, I stumbled upon a character telling me to buy a "special."  The minute I bought the special, I noticed that it was a direct reference to Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days!  Here's a photo I took with my IPad that is proof of my statement!

See!?  The Ice Pop looks exactly like a Sea Salt Ice Cream Bar!  Out of all the things the developers of this game would make, they coincidentally happened upon this design, and look at the description!  "If you get a Win Stick, you get another one for free!"  This just screams 358/2 Days!  It's frickin awesome that Kingdom Hearts makes its way to other games in some form or another!  With this, we can conclude that the people that made this game must be fans of the Kingdom Hearts series!

Sweet, but salty.

"Who else will I have ice cream with?"

 

"...how about Jude?"

WHAT COULD THIS MEAN

Seeing as how I'm a fan of both Xillia and Days, this makes the inner fanboy of my entire being scream with excitement!

I don't think it's a reference to Days directly, more a reference to the series in general, but that's pretty cool. 

That's pretty awesome.

Fool. If anything, it would be a reference to Kingdom Hearts 2.

Yeah, I know, but the thing that made me associate this reference to KH Days was the "if you get a Win Stick, you get another one for free!" quote.  And as far as I recall, the Winner Stick was mentioned and showed in Days, not KH2.  Those are the little details that set the reference to Days in my opinion.  But yeah,  for all we know, it could be a reference to the series in general.

....John was there.... you know this to be truth

Not with the Win stick, no. Days it is.

Exactly!  (Don't worry Winner, I'll like your post as soon as my quota stops being a bee-otch to me. )

Yes my son! :')  You have received a Winner Stick!  Now go and bask in the glory of another Ice Pop!

I vaguely remember seeing this concept in a few places. I think it might just be something common in Japanese culture, I'm not certain though.

Yeah, I assumed that as well. It's like how here in America the sticks have corny jokes printed on them

I knew it looked familiar, how did i not put the two together?

WHOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAA

 

KH references are as awesome as Sonic references IMO.

I do believe it was in Tales of Graces too... I was like... "That looks like sea-salt ice cream. Oh well, guess blue is just a popular color for ice cream in Japan."

o_O Didn't see this before. Nice find Golden! At first I thought, "Meh they probably just designed it like that out of the blue..." but when I next read the description where if you win, you get another free, that right there was no joke. This is definitely a KHDays reference and an awesome one to be exact Glad that there are finally games out there that are using KH references

Not with the Win stick, no. Days it is.

Fool. Winner stick. Little detail from Days. Sea Salt ice cream, huge detail from KH2. Ever since Days, it's safe to assume that there are also winner sticks in KH2 versions of the ice cream, we just never saw it.

that's pretty cool i can't believe i still haven't finished xilia

And in Graces, Asbel's ice cream melts, and Malik gets a Win stick.
