This is fake.

The stuff about Coded and 358/2 Days is in the Famitsu interview, but the stuff about a new announcement is nowhere to be found.

I have Famitsu in front of me, and I don't see the line about a new Kingdom Hearts being announced next week anywhere in there.

Makes sense. How are they going to announce a new KH when there are two unreleased KH games and one of them doesn't even have a date.

A fansite that sources another fansite whose sources is a Japanese fansite whose source is a scanlation of Famitsu all which is translated by yet another fansite. Huh.

And with disney characters on the front it'd probably sell better than both on the Wii.

ding ding fucking ding. unless squeenix had the same mentality as other 3rd parties that the wii would be a massive failure, i really think it makes the most sense for kh3 to come out for the wii. i have all consoles, and im rooting for the wii version. i think using the wiimote would be more fun than hd personally.

The thing is SE has to pitch this shit to Disney anyway. They have to say "This is what we want to do, this is what we want your precious characters to do and say etc" and disney has to give it the seal of approval. SE could easily say "So here's the design document. It's going to be PS360," and Disney may well turn around and say "Uhh.. no. If you want to continue this series, you'll follow our overall strategy and do it on Wii, the family friendly system for a family friendly company like Disney."

And Square Enix sure does like their cut of the KH money, so they will obey.

Why? Because the userbases combine? Wii's userbase is bigger than both PS3's and Xbox 360's in Japan combined!

Oops, I forgot.
KH is only popular in Japan.

I really want this announcement to be KH3, but I don't see how SE has time. Isn't the KH team (allegedly) working on Vs. XIII?

As a KH fan it saddens me all the system wars bullshit that always goes on this gen regarding the series. Many clearly don't even care about the game itself (KH3) as much as they care about their system of choice getting another "important" exclusive and/or "the lulz that will ensue".

I think the sad thing is S-E's dev cycles are so damn slow that we'll be lucky if we get KH3 this gen on any of the 3 consoles before the next generational shift occurs, message board reactions be damned.

They announced KH2 and CoM the same day and they were a while apart from each other in terms of release.

A few months ago I would have said KH3 on the Wii is a complete no-brainer. Now? Not a chance in hell that's happening.

Quote me on this.

Kingdom Hearts III for PS360. Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep port for Wii.
Yes, this is more likely.

And even those who do have their little agendas to push, can't miss any chances.

Don't expect SE to put too much effort into the HD consoles considering the companies recent outings, unless it's been in development for quite some time. Hell, I wouldn't been surprised if it's a DS or PSP mainline Kingdom Hearts.

I find it funny because I'll play it regardless of where or when it's released. It's hilarious to me why so many take it seriously.

You know, even if this wasn't fake, I'm pretty sure the "big announcement" would be that S-E had made a deal with a clothing manufacturer to create KH clothing, just like they have done with Versus XIII. Maybe we'd get a nice photoshop-worthy jpg of Nomura himself sporting giant shoes and a lock pendant

Isn't BBS pretty much already a mainline PSP game (KHZero/Alpha/Origins)? KH1 secret trailer -> KHII, KHII secret trailer -> KHBBS.
Yeah. I really don't think KH3 will be announced until we see some secret trailer at the end of BBS.

That's Birth by Sleep, the PSP game.

Ow, didn't knew that. Thanks.

I bet the game won't be as cool as the trailer. Just like with KH's Deep Dive teaser. KH2 never achieved that dark style. :(

People need to forget about KH going really dark. As long as it has Disney in it, KH wont be the dark kind of game people are hoping for (and honestly I don't know why people want KH to be dark.) If you want a dark KH style game, just wait for Versus XIII.

Nomura is doing that with Final Fantasy Versus XIII :D
