Ooooohhhhhh. Man, I was wondering for the longest time.

@Carl:

Wait, KH3DS is a spin-off but Crisis Core isn't a spin-off?

From what he says, it sounds a lot more like a spinoff... Especially with Sora not being the main character.

And he only says it implies it is... Which it does imply it due to the 3 in 3D.

So after he said his team are working on HD development, and he's wanting it on current gen "console"... I still think it's going PS3/360.

 

Either way, I will be uber disappointed if it goes to a handheld -_- Like... Almost as disappointed as Crisis Core being on PSP.

Keep main series games away from handhelds!!!


lolz, you don't even play KH...

Btw this game follows both Sora and Riku.

I've played both of the PS2 games. None of the spinoffs.

And it follows them. Sora isn't the main playable character though...

I'd imagine Sora being the main protagonist of the series would be the main playable character in the main series games.

Listen, "main series" for Final Fantasy is a numbered final fantasy. A prequel is still a spin-off game. It's a spin-off of FF7.

Final Fantasy VII holds a dear spot next to my heart. You should know this. Bias reigns supreme when it comes to FFVII.

Although you do have a point. Was kinda silly of me to say that.

@ SoraRiku

Like I said, I've not played BBS (or 358/2 Days) so I wouldn't really know if they could be classed main series or whatever. The series isn't really in my top 10 or anything, but I did enjoy the first 2.

Suppose I should read up on BBS/358 before I start butting into KH conversation again

@ Everyone else talking about BBS being main series.

LEAVE ME ALONE!

My guess is that KH3DS is likely in a phase before it's story has been developed. They're probably still doing engine development for the 3DS and putting character models together and such. This game *could* become KH3, but the higher-ups at Square Enix are waiting to see 3DS performance (possibly hedging it by setting Versus XIII performance against Birth by Sleep and 358/2, and maybe even tossing Epic Mickey into consideration somewhere in there)


Anyone at Square Enix with half a brain would know a "main" FF title (it's not entirely a main title like FF XIII is, but whatever) like Versus XIII will sell more than any KH game. Especially 358/2 Days (a side story) and BBS on PSP (and where the Western market > JP market for KH, PSP isn't exactly the best platform for sales).

It's all in a continuum with cost and potential sales. Versus XIII would be deemed relatively similar enough to Kingdom Hearts to assess the base amounts of appeal such a game has on PS3 (and inevitably 360). Certainly raw sales would not be similar, but it could be used as a guage for enthusiasm. Enthusiasm especially set against enthusiasm for the titles on the handhelds, then we set the stark reality of development costs against one another (which we've seen proof positive has effected publishers in the past in spite of a certain assured level of sales, as in the case of Monster Hunter Three, though Capcom and Squenix have very different thought processes)



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

NO I WON'T IT'S A PART OF THE MAIN SERIES!In fact cronlogically it's the first game in the main series.



I don't get all the crazyness over this franchise, but if it makes people happy....
