I second this notion and suggest we start immediately.

Since a lot of people are saying it's fake (myself mostly included), why not humor this for a bit? Saying this does end with Xehanort rising from the water coming home to fight everyone...What happens in KH III? I doubt a whole entire game can be made on one fight alone. Sure there would definitely be different phases, but how can you make KH III solely on Xehanort Pilgrim VS the World?

I love how it has part of what BBS different from the others, then Days's flute(?), and KH II's guitar. Then it shows us hope with the festive-ness. And it calms down to tell a story once again. I don't think I'll ever want to leave the title screen. Oh, when March comes, my iPod shall rejoice.

If you guys want to see the plot that he posted here it is. Look for NikkiMirai's first and second post for the "plot." http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/997779-kingdom-hearts-3d-dream-drop-distance/61488502?page=8 After reading that, I'm skeptical. I really hope I didn't spoil the entire game for myself. Still leaning toward false, though.

Kairi? NOT in Destiny Islands? I'm not going to believe this until we get more information. But it's nice to see The Jungle Book and Toy Story, so I'll hope it's true.

The fact that the English trailer should be released within the next month should be proof enough.

Maybe because Final Fantasy has a higher priority in localizing than KH does? I don't know if it does or not, but it's a possibility. It was like that for XIII, too. @Izzo: No. It was stated to be localized faster than the other KHs, or recent ones. I'm looking at a March-July release.

I agree; final bosses should be harder. But not hard to the point where it's impossible to beat the boss without hours of grinding. Kingdom Hearts killed me with that. Oh, and Triangle To Win should be kept to a minimum.

They both get out of the dream. The MoM doesn't take all game.

I'm sure that with the PS3 and newer release habits(America has been getting things before Japan for some/most games), Final Mixes will stop and the game will be patched. For the extra Final Mix content, DLC!

How much could they necessarily create, though? KH3D is the next big game, leading directly into Kingdom Hearts III. I don't think that what was teased about BBS V2 is not nearly enough to be fleshed out into a full game by itself. I think it would be combined with KH 3D to save money and time. And about the lack of CGI for Zero Point makes me believe even more that BBSV2 is really a bunch of cutscenes added in KH 3D. Maybe some playable characters added, like Kairi and Mickey (the last two slots on the website. I'm believing they are characters until it's officially stated, even though it's hard to believe. Or until the game comes out.).

Sacrificing himself as in how? The darkness in his heart is no more. He doesn't belong with it anymore. I can't think that Nomura would have Ven kill Sora. Mainly because it would mean Sora wins, him being the main character as long as there is Kingdom Hearts. That, and I think Ven would remember Sora from 12-13 years ago when he left Sora the job of repairing his heart. (By the way, if Sora can only save one person, it should be Aqua. In BBS, she personally promised that she would be the one to wake Ven back up. I don't think Nomura would let that go. So Sora can go get Aqua, who is the only person who knows where Ven is, and they can go get Ven. Then KHIII is them getting Terra and events leading up to the final battle.) I thinkk a surprise ending would be the complete destruction of the worlds. Or Sora being split up. Meaning Roxas (& Xion. You could count her separately, too.), Ven, and Sora's heart all becoming separate. MX strikes him down and it's up to Riku, Kairi, and Mickey to save him by gathering Sora once again. They might be able to save Ven in the process.

I think there should be a KH HD Collection, yes. I would definitely buy it, and I know many others would too. As stated earlier above this post, it would be a great way for newcomers to get into the series. PS2 Games are rarely found in Gamestops now, and I went to Toys R Us with my dad for christmas shopping. While there, I overheard someone looking for a PS2 game of some sort. There is no PS2 section. How are the new fans supposed to figure out the story? There's only so much a present KH game will tell. Why not at least port KH I and II (Re: CoM if you want) to PSN? There are PS2 classics on there now, so why not? Even better, an HD collection with those games! Birth By Sleep for story purposes. Mr. Nomura, I know you are extremely busy, but at some point in the future I would love to see a Kingdom Hearts Collection on the PS3, or on multiple consoles. Perhaps you could make that a 2013 release if you have no other KH game planned for that year, assuming you are sticking with what you said about one Kingdom Hearts game per year. Sorry about me acting like I was talking to Mr. Nomura even though he won't read it. I don't know why I wrote it that way, but I'm too lazy to change it now.

KH II and BbS are my favorites. I love KH II's The World that Never Was the best, although I love it all. And Birth by Sleep was just....beautiful. From hearing Dream Drop Distance's Dearly Beloved, I just know it'll be amazing.

Agreed. Couldn't Eraqus be waiting for both his remaining pieces (if they aren't already dead) to be destroyed? Sure, this is a stretch, but Terra beat Eraqus to a pulp but MX was the one to kill him. MX(to some extent) was the same person who turned Braig, Ienzo, and Aeleus into Nobodies/Heartless, with a Keyblade too. If the Lingering Sentiment is returned, then Eraqus has a chance of coming back. We need Mark Hamill back. T-T

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong forum section, I wasn't sure if I should put this in the General/Future Titles section or 3D section. This having relevance to 3D, I put it in the KH3D forum. Please feel free to change this, mods. I know this is a long shot, but I figured this needs to be said. I think that Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance and Birth By Sleep Volume 2 are the same games. Here are some reasons why: Another Side, Another Story/Deep Dive led to KH II and Days, the next major installments in the story. Both were secret endings do KH I. (Both in the normal version and Final Mix. I'm not fully sure on that part though.) Birth By Sleep, KH II's Secret Ending (Part of it was in the normal version. Full secret ending was in Final Mix) Those being said, Zero Point, KH BBS Final Mix's Secret Ending should lead to the next major installment in the series by tradition, right? Assuming KH3D will be using the 4GB game card(if not larger. Size hasn't been confirmed yet.) to its full extent, KH3D is already larger than any other KH game before, if I recall correctly. It is also supposed to be as important as a "numbered title", like BBS was. It is obviously a major installment. Blank Points led to "Reconnect: Kingdom Hearts". Depending when Sora gets around to saving all those people and checking people out of his human hotel, that could mean KH III or KH 3D. was shown to have multiple scenes from the past in it. Zero Point also had scenes from the future(past, if you are going by where they are currently.) We know that the game will feature both scenes from the past and the present. All scenes from the past wouldn't be featured, so we also know there will be more. Zero Point has Aqua running into Cinderella's world in the Realm of Darkness. This is a stretch, but I theorize that Cinderella's world is part of the Dream Worlds too,(there are 2 more that need to be confirmed. I think it is one of them.) Once Sora and Riku clear these worlds, Aqua is free. Then she can go get Ven, as I will hopefully state later. After the Destati music starts (which was music used to represent KH 3D earlier. Still is.), it cuts to Mickey in familiar clothes, Star Seeker in hand. Mickey is shown with those clothes in the KH 3D trailer too. Then another fancy flash and Riku (KHI. I think it's the same hooded figure Riku from the KH 3D trailer) is holding a sleeping Kairi on the Neverland Clock Tower. Possibly the last world embodied in sleep. Goofy and Donald are then shown in Traverse Town. They are in KHI clothes. I don't know how they are relevant, Nomura knows though. Another flash. Oh look, it's Kairi in Twilight Town with Hayner, Pence, and Olette. I'm sure this took place during KHII's period of her being in Twilight Town. Another scene from the past that could be included in KH 3D/BBS V2. Flash! Sora sleeping and DiZ looking at him pressing some shizz. This is during the intermission between KH CoM and the beginning of Sora's Story in KH II. Another scene from the past. It has relevance, I'm sure of it. Now it flashes to Roxas and Xion walking in Twilight Town (Xion was shown in KH 3D's trailer/opening. She's coming back some way or another. Even if the part she was shown in was a recap. Xion is coming back.), long-haired Riku with the blindfold looking down at them. Now it shows a pair of legs. I think it's Aqua. The location is Destiny Islands. Here's the important part. YOUNG MASTER XEHANORT is shown(without the face being revealed. Probably different clothes, too.) turning around, Ansem SoD and Xemnas and Xehanort transitioning their way in. It's obvious this is the same person. Then a cut to Ven sleeping in Castle Oblivion (Which is technically something Sora and Riku have to do, if I am recalling correctly.), then another flash and he's gone. Then the logo: Birth By Sleep Volume Two. And when I say logo I mean text. I mentioned Young Master Xehanort, Ansem SoD, Xemnas, and Xehanort all being shown in that secret ending. Guess who show up in the KH 3D trailer? Them. That's all I can come up with at the moment, but I hope this is evidence for some of you, if not most or all, to believe that these two games are the same game. If I can remember any details I forgot I will be sure to post them on this first post, so check back here often. I am not sure Nomura can pull out another KH game for 2013, unless he releases Versus XIII in 2012 (which I am very confident he will, mainly because I have faith in him. We have little information on it, but what right does that give us to say that it's nowhere near finished? I think he wants everything polished before releasing it. You have to remember, most of Mr. Nomura's time has gone into Versus XIII. Any game being worked on for that amount of time has to be somewhat done. Take a look at FF XIII and Skyward Sword. I think it's time for Versus XIII to make an appearance next year./shot Well, I hope you guys liked this theory/statement, so please enjoy and let me know what you think!

I agree with zhill. If McCartney ends up voicing Neku(which we'll discover within the next month), I have faith in him to not mess it up. Him, Osment, and Riku's Godlike voice actor have got to be some of my favorites, Flynn and Mark hamill aside.

A Tangled world? Oh hell yes. I would love that! That movie was amazing Rapunzel would be a cool party member. Ariel, even though I hated her worlds, was probably one of my favorite Disney characters and KH add-ons. She should have been a princess of heart over alice, who in my opinion, seemed out of place.

I expected a release date at the least, and was somewhat skeptical about anything else. Well, the chat was fun. Nice talking to you guys.

I just thought about that earlier today when I transferred and watched the trailer on my PS3 to celebrate the TV I got for Christmas (now I can actually read the text! It isn't small anymore! ). I don't think Malificient would be going after the Princesses of Heart once again. If she were, why would she need to hear that from Xemnas/Xehanort? Either way, I'd enjoy to see the Princesses of Heart play their part once again in the series. They deserve more screentime, for them being so important. Them being pure light, there's so much more that can be done with them! In other words, I'm hopeful.

A whole saga about Kairi? As much as I like her and wish more will happen with her (KH III looks like her time to shine. No more Kairi missing for the whole game, please.) I'd love to see what Nomura has up his sleeve, but until then, I imagine! I want to see TVA and SRK become the main characters, with Roxas, Namine, Xion, Yen Sid, Axel, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy be important side characters. Maybe we could see the trios working to keep the worlds in balance for an intro to IV, then some baddie comes and makes everything terribad. (That's a word now.) I'd like to see Sora team up with Ven at some point, and Terra with Riku. Aqua and Kairi to finish it off. Kairi, in my opinion, definitely needs some training. SoKai should also be a thing at some point down the line. To what extent, however, I don't know at the moment. I'd also like for the amount of Keyblade Wielders to stay low, not exceeding the ones I mentioned. I'm sure that will change, but if it does, I want the people I listed earlier to be at the very top of all Keyblade Wielders. Oh, I'd also like to see Yen Sid in action. He's probably god-like, which is why he needs to fight.

Okay, so I've been wondering about what the Preorder Bonuses were for FFXIII-2, as I plan to get it. Since Japan got DLC and we got preorder bonuses(the Alternate Costume, Omega, and the Episode i Novella), would we(we being the US, as I don't know the situation of other countries.) get the preorder bonuses as DLC later on? I know that the Kuda bow will be available for XBOX360 DLC for a dollar. Is that the only DLC the states will be getting? If so, are you going to preorder 13-2 and from where? Link to the preorder Bonuses (not where you can preorder them, just an article.) : http://www.gameinfor...s-revealed.aspx Amazon: Omega Boss Fight (is recruitable afterwards.) Best Buy: Episode i Novella Gamestop: Alternate Costume for Serah 360 Exclusive DLC: Kuda Azrael Bow for Serah

-le scroll through the poll results- Ven and Namine? The two don't even know each other. http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/sleep.png Sora and Kairi is probably my favorite pairing, sue me for being unoriginal. I could see Sora and Namine together, though, basing that off of CoM/Re: CoM. I like the thought of Roxas and Xion, but I also don't like it. It's kinda selfcest, if that's even a thing. The pairs that seem most likely to occur are Roxas and Namine and Sora and Kairi, the former being forced by the latter.

I'd love to see KH III and future titles (IV, V, BBS V2, etc. since III ends the Xehanort Saga, not the series) on multiple platforms, not just Sony. At the current moment, I am unaffected by which console it is on, since I own all 3 of the platforms. Interesting topic, though.
