KH-Vids | Your ultimate source for Kingdom Hearts media

Hey everyone, the official website for Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days has been updated late last night. Saix was added to the characters page, which means that the section is now complete. The movies section has three new videos added, but they have already been seen previous times on the main website. Lastly, the system section has been added with five videos.

Three more days till the release of Days.

The new issue of Nintendo Power features Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. This issue is out now and features six pages of information and screenshots from the title. It's been said that Pinocchio's world and Traverse Town would be featured in the video game. As of now, I would add this as a rumor until the scans have fully surfaced online with screenshots and information that confirms this.

There are some scans that are posted online, but they are horrible in quality. I may wait a bit longer before I start posting these scans up. We'll keep you guys informed on the latest.

Hey everyone, Kouli from Gamefaqs has posted images of the leaked Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days copy. The two images feature a preview of the cover and the back view of the game. I'm not sure how the game was obtained, but I guess that certain people got the Japanese copy from somewhere (laughs).

Hey everyone, the Famitsu website posted a new article on Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days, which contains details on the panel system. There are also images from last week's scans that contain cutscenes and multi-player gameplay from the title. The images are posted below. Translations will be done and added a little later today from me.



In mission mode there is a rule that freely changes. Apparently the use of magic is prohibited. If the setting is changed the damage to the enemy is then lowered. (Mike's Note: That was my first rough translation in the post. xD)


The Organization members can use "Limit Hit". The power that's involved in this attack can be very different for each character. All members except Xion can use Limit Hit in the beginning?





King Mickey and Riku meet in the forest that's located in Twilight Town. Riku mentions to King Mickey that the power of darkness is very uneasy.



There is a duty that needs to be done with Roxas. Xaldin notices that the Beast values the rose.

Hey everyone, it appears that another interview with Nomura has been added. This interview appears to be very long and talks about four topics for the Kingdom Hearts series. Once again, I'll try to get translations up for this interview ASAP. In the mean time, click HERE to access the interview page. If you click the links on the page, you'll be able to access some interesting cutscenes from Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days. Translations will be added to this page shortly.

Projecting KINGDOM HEARTS
The start of the interview contains information on the general Kingdom Hearts series success. Kingdom Hearts already has two new titles coming out for the series. "It is a unique game that features various elements with a variety of Disney characters." Final Fantasy characters are also placed as guests in the Disney classic worlds, which "makes a good mix. I think it is a title that everyone can widely enjoy."


"It's the first time that the Kingdom Hearts series has been added to the DS." Apparently there were opinions from people saying that he should add the series to the Nintendo DS. The interview also adds a response to the way Days works on the DS. In this part, its a rough translation, but Nomura is talking about the touch screen and how the battle appears on the upper screen. Nomura mentioned that his previous work The World Ends with You gave him a lot of experience and inspiration for creating Days on the DS.

Later in the interview, Nomura explained that his ideas of making a 3D RPG, starting when he had involvement with Final Fantasy: VII. During that time period Mario 64 was released on the Nintendo 64 and Nomura was very interested in giving an RPG some sort of feeling that he got from that title. It was only years later, before that was possible. I guess you can say that Mario inspired Kingdom Hearts.

Nomura explains the difference between Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts. Nomura added that there are many worlds and new story lines for Final Fantasy, but for Kingdom Hearts it's all in the same universe.
