Kingdom Hearts Final Mix +

Well, Nomura did say he would like to give his American audiance the same experience. So if it did come to America, it might be in Japanese with english subtitles. So that we can get a feel for the Japanese VAs like they will get to experience our American VAs.

I also found KH2 underdeveloped. There was so much more they could have done with it. But from what i heard, there will be more scenes with Roxas. Which i felt could have really helped in the first place.

There is a much better chance with this coming to America than the first one. And i really hope it does! Especially for CoM! I would LOVE to hear CoM with voices =3 *was really upset when he didnt get to hear their voices in KH2... so many cool characters wasted...*.

A must have~
 
I think the plot in KH2 was a bit heavy for just one game.

If it had been an 80 hour game, then it might have been able to flesh out better. As it was, I thought they handled it well.

I too remember Nomura saying he wanted us to be able to experiance the Japanese voice overs...

Quite true. The reason i felt it was underdeveloped was because the story had HUGE potential, but they didnt fully utilize it. If they did make it an 80 hour game, as they should have with how long it took to come out, then they might have been able to bring that potential to light. I really wanted to see them expand on what they had; because from what i saw, it could have been far bigger than it was.

But, I am happy they are doing at least one thing, for sure, with the story in FM+. And that is expanding on Roxas' story. That part needed some more light. It was the deepest part of the story, yet i felt rather cheated. So if its as good as they say, than I am really looking forward to it!

I really hope Squeenix wises up and realizes how big of a fanbase they actually have here in America; and stop making games for the Japanese public only! Especially on the KH series which is half American (Disney being the American half XP).

EUROPE!!!!

I mean, yeah.
We get even less than what you guys get. The game might come to america but it's certainly not coming in europe. I don't want to bring up the debate, I just wanted to say it.

Anyway, I'll buy it in japanese since I already have the original japanese game and the french version too. I just need the english voices now ^_^
 
I'd give it to you if you want it. I have the engilsh KH2. You can have it.

I'm actually kindof sickened that they don't bring stuff to Europe. Maybe they just don't like you guys which is BAD. It's totally unacceptable. I'm not mad however that some games don't come to the US. If there's a will there's a way to buy Japanese video games and translate them or figure stuff out.

I kindof like figuring stuff out. I think that's the reason I play games.
 
At the end of the day, Squeenix just need to understand that the western world want the Japanese version of the game, not the completely disney-fied version released for the Western world.

On a lighter note:

I found myself going "What? WHO is that again? What just happened? Er... okay, whatever, find a boss, kill him, move story forward" at a few points in the game. And I'm usually really good at picking up storylines, but... yeah, I got lost more then once or didn't completely understand a lot of the things in KH2.

Of course that was more so towards the end and during the Organization 13 heavy parts. What I thought was a waste of time though was the beginning. You put all this time and effort into learning and liking the Roxas character, -finally- get to play as him and then... that's it. No more Roxas. I was so peeved, expecting to be able to play as him again but alas -_-;

My brain did start to hurt though when I tried thinking of all the Heartless and Nobodies thing from the first and second game :) (Okay, this person was this, and got turned to that, which means this person should be running around too.)

Sales data for Kingdom Hearts:

Japan: Over 1.5 million
North America: Over 3.0 million
Europe & PAL: Over 1.1 million

KH:CoM:
Japan: Over 0.4 million
North America: Over 0.9 million
Europe & PAL: Over 0.2 million

KH II:
Japan: Over 1.1 million
North America: Over 1.7 million
Europe & PAL: Over 0.7 million

They'd have to be brain dead not to make at least a NA release. Since Squeenix hasn't gone nonprofit last I checked, I would say hold on to your money and not buy the Japanese version, at least for a while.

I may just con someone into buying this for me! ._. I just wish they wouldn't package them together, I don't need another KH2!
