What are you talking about? There's been absolutely no hints of a digitial release for Kingdom Hearts: DDD, and Nintendo said they'd like to get retail releases downloadable in the future (if I remember right), but yeah, it's pretty unlikely. I seriously hope you aren't implying piracy when you mean download. (not that that's possible on the 3DS anyway) But anyway, ignoring all that, I'll be buying it! Both the English and Japanese versions! =D

A release date? We haven't even got any English media for the game shown yet. Hate to say it, but you're going to be waiting for awhile before the official English release date is revealed.

One of the best consoles I've ever owned, with some of some amazing IP's to come from it. (Kingdom Hearts being one of them) Feels weird to think it's been 12 years since it launched, feels like so long ago, yet I can still remember getting one for christmas all those years ago!

29 days to go, can't wait! Pre-ordered my Japanese 3DS today in preparation! (with thearhythm to tide me over 'till then)

If we're counting spin-offs definately Crisis Cores ending. Bought tears to my eye, you knew it was coming from the begining if you'd played VII (or seen Advent Children), but it still was extremely sad. ;_;

This. So It'll probably for the most part go the same as the movie, with a sub-plot of Sora trying to rescue (spoilers for those who haven't seen Legacy)

First thing that popped into my head after reading that was some sort of extra boss battle while the credits are rolling, but It'll probably be a cutscene.

According to someone on twitter, the Japanese one will have a hour presentation and an hour of game trailers (and interviews I guess), I'm super hyped now!

It's times like this I love living where I do, I can watch it at 7 PM and not have to get up early for these events held in Japan usually. There's also a US Nintendo Direct with Reggie as the host (so it might feature different things) which I think is 3 hours after the Japanese one. I'm still hoping we'll get a English Kingdom Hearts 3D reveal trailer in it, even though I haven't got my hope ups.

Actually, now that I'm scrolling through the trailers again part of that scene is shown in the TGS trailer, (which is canon) and in it Sora and Riku are in their Kingdom Hearts 1 attires (although Riku has his hair cut, so they made the designs the same as the final DDD ones) to support what I said before. I can't quite tell if Rikus hair is cut like it is in DDD in the Ursula battle though, or if it's how it was in Kingdom Hearts 1, it's too hard for me to tell.

Currently nothing. I had to drop out of school due to medical reasons, (on my last year of high school, too) so until my illness is sorted I wont be doing anything, but after that I plan on going to TAFE.

I enjoyed it quite alot! The only real complaint I had was I felt the climax was a bit on the short side.

Oh yeah, I forgot that. I still wouldn't rule out Destiny Islands appearing in the game though, even if it hasn't been confirmed. One could argue that there are exceptions to what Nomura said though. I mean Pranksters Paradise contains a bit for Riku where he goes inside Monstro, which we did with Sora in the original Kingdom Hearts, but everything else is new in the world.

Looking at the fact Sora doesn't have a drop guage, and his HP meter, along with Usulas having only a bar I was thinking that perhaps it would make sense if she's the first boss from Destiny Islands, right before Sora and Riku end up in Traverse Town. If you recall, they were talking about a raft in the earlier trailer "who knows, if we have to we'll build a raft", and Sora and Riku looked like they were on some sort of raft (like a giant version of the one in KH1, minus not having a sail, perhaps it got damaged in the sea) while battling her. Just would fit in really well for me. (also one other thing I noticed is Sora drops from the sky in his KH1 clothes at one point in another trailer, which again would fit in well with after/before this boss battle if it's before traverse towns first visit) Plus it would be something a bit more refreshing than fighting Darkside right before you arrive in traverse town for the 4th time.

Sort of, not so much hacked, just me leaving my account logged in at my friends house. Turns out his 'cousin' suppoably thought the account was his and thought it'd be funny to ban myself on the site I moderate on

PS3: Soul Calibur V and soon Jak and Daxter HD Collection (just gotta wait for the UK release date and my copy to arrive) I haven't really been playing many games lately D:

I was really sad when she died, I'd grown attached to her just as Roxas had, despite the fact she was treated like a puppet by most of the organization. Her actual death scene was ruined for me though with a terrible one liner by Roxas, felt alot more dramatic when I couldn't understand what they were saying in Japanese

Really? I didn't know that. I thought they were originally in there in the original Japanese version :wacko:But then again, I suppose I can't really say seeing as how I never actually played the original Jap version.

I don't really think so, people that aren't big fans probably wont look at it as spoiling the game because they probably wont know the tagline or look into the coverart and its meaning that much plotwise. Besides that, we don't really know the circumstances for Sora falling into darkness or what Mickey will do to try to save him. If anything it leaves more mystery to it, rather than spoiling anything. (imo)

Nope, I hate them too! It doesn't help that I mod a forum that has alot of fanboy wars in articles

Minus some censored cutscenes, and a dubbing of the games cutscenes absolutely nothing.

Two of the things I've wanted in Kingdom Hearts for a long while! Chernabog's return, and the TWEWY cast appearing, looking forward to it!

Play-Asia, Y U NO open pre-orders for the bundle yet? D:< Oh and for those who want to import the bundle, just so you know it doesn't actually include the game, it's just the system by itself. So you'd have to buy both, which would set you back a few hundred dollars.

Really? I think alot of the changes could be worked in really well (albit changed a bit) to feel like they were just extras to add value/life to the game after you've finished it. New Dream Eaters to find and befriend/defeat, unlocking new abilitys from them, a new secret boss, things like that. If they did a new secret ending they could alsowork it so that it was just added onto the ending and original secret ending after the requirements were met, like they did for 2's Final Mix. And I don't really think there was that many major changes in the Final Mix, enough to warrant another purchase, yeah, but it basically felt like it was just extra quests, abilitys, enemys + recolours, bosses along with the secret ending. The games core still remains the same, with new environments and the like. I honestly think it wouldn't be that hard to do as DLC. Oh yeah, I keep on forgetting that was the reason for the original Final Mix.

I used the search bar and couldn't find a thread on this (sorry if there already is and I missed it) All of the main games have got one, and Nomura has already said this has the volume of a main Kingdom Hearts game, so I wouldn't be suprised if it got one. But the thing that would bug me about Final Mix is the 3DS has the option to add DLC to games, so it seems pointless to add a few extras to the game and give it another retail release when Square-Enix could just release extras as DLC on the eShop. Not only that, but that way people outside of Japan would be able to get the extras aswell. Anyway, what do you guys (and girls) think? Will Japan get another Final Mix, or will Square-Enix finally embrace digital distribution for Kingdom Hearts series?
