I'm not one of those people who's been begging for the remake for ages and I certainly wouldn't mind playing a remake.
Well looking back at what Nomura said not long ago with his two projects, the one he was talking when he said it's not new, I think he's referring to the FF VII remake. I mean, Kingdom Hearts III is still a bit too early to be announced I reckon.
This new statement only enforces what he'd said previously. So it does kinda make more sense if he was talking about the FF VII remake. PS3 exclusive of course.
