At last the limited edition Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days design is revealed!

 

The Nintendo DS title Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is set to release May 30. The special edition Nintendo DSi with the unique design will also be released then. It has a chic design where icons symbolizing the game are arranged in the shape of a monogram on the DSi's top. The finished design is both appealing and adult-like, it doesn't look like a game console at all.

Tetsuya Nomura's Interview

 

Did you do the main design?

 

Nomura: Yes. I was often being asked, "Will you design it for girls?", but inevitably I designed it myself. The special characteristics of Kingdom Hearts titles were top priority, though the course of staying conscious of female fans, details like the main DSi body were made chic so that boys and adults wouldn't feel out of place with it. I think since the rare monogram designs of the game are seen as fashionable, not only girls but guys will also want it.
