No I didn't at all, no one seems to understand IP ownership here, ok lets say Disney wanted to make KH1&2 on Wii and basically just a port, SE refuses to go along with it, SE has right to put an end to it, cause they published and developed KH1&2, BUT if Disney wanted to put KH3 on Wii and SE didn't go along with it, Disney could just say OK I don't want you to publish or develop the game, we won't use your FF characters, and then could just go to Nintendo and ask them to make KH3. Do you finally understand? Disney owns the IP, Disney AND SE own KH1&2. |
Like you said, Goldeneye was published by Nintendo, meaning they paid for the game for christ sake. Of course they get the say so of where that particular game can go. Yet GoldenEye is a liscense game, built off of another established property. Kingdom Hearts is a brand new IP between two companies that has already established characters and settings within the game. If the particular agreement in which the KH series is to change with the next installment then yes, it can go anywhere Disney wants. Yet as it stands it is a 50/50 split. The FF characters are just as much invested into KH lore as the Disney ones are. The main characters (Sora, Riku, Kairi, etc) are owned by Disney but Designed by Nomura. What would happen without him? The story simply could not go on. The story is within his head and nowhere else. He makes the characters that drive the plot. How can a game continue without that?
