Remember the picture of Xehanort in KH2? How did he get that way? H elooks like terra with wite hair..

How did he do that?

Do I own both handhelds?


I am glad you own both handhelds so my assumption isn't right.

Still, the reasons i listed are the reasons i expect the DS version to both be and sell better that BbS.

So since you own both and you claim you are a real KH fan you'll get both right?

@hunter_alien

If Crisis Core (which was, and deserves to be, hyped to death) couldn't do it (in Japan) how could BbS do it? I believe 358/2 Days will sell around 2.5-3 million with BbS at 1.5-2 million max. Still very good but less than the DS version.


CCs sales will only arrive when it will be released in all reagions ... bealive me , its action oriented nature will help it sell batter than in Japan . BBS is much more younger-crowd oriented than CC and that will help it to . Also KH games arent that Japan-oriented as FF games , so yeah , my theorie can have some base ;)


This is exactly one of the reasons it won't help it. Many PSP owners will see Disney and think it's kiddie stuff. 

Also if FF which is so Japan-oriented couldn't even sell all that great in Japan what are the chances it will sell great in other regions?

 CC wasnt a real Japanese game , if you at least watch a video about it , youl see that its much more dinamic than previous FF games ( yes DoC included ) . On the other hand there are many younger people whom have PSPs , and KH is a famous enough game to dont let older ones to get turned down by its kiddie looks . Speaking of younger crowds , just a couple of month ago I read a report , that in the first half of 07 nearly 50% of PSP buyers where under 15 year olds ... so yeah , there are many younger PSP owners :)

How can you say such things without knowing anything about BBS or 358/2 days, trust me when the reviews come you will understand.

 Same goes to you really how can you say anything when you know nothing much about both games. *Rolleyes*

As for me, I think the DS version will sell more, I can assume so because of the high number of DS sold across the world and I can't say about the score cause just as the great leo-j pointed out, we don't know much about neither games because there's so little info about it.

Oh and I'm not biased for any console really I want a PSP for Star Ocean First Departure and I'll pick KH too.

Now this is just how good the PSP version looks : just look at it and drool , because I know thats what I did :

http://www.famitsu.com/game/coming/1212801_1407.html

BTW , the game will have a highly modified battle sistem to , so at leats it wont be just a pure copy of previous KH games :D

From PSPfanboy.com :

he article highlights two new features of the new PSP Kingdom Hearts game's battle mode: the Command meter and Fatal Mode. Players are encouraged to battle furiously, as each attack they execute will fill the Command meter. Once the Command meter fills, players will be able to launch a special attack (which can supposedly be custom mapped).

Terra (the guy that looks a bit too much like Zack from Crisis Core) also has an extra mode: Fatal Mode, which unsurprisingly delivers one-hit kills to enemies.

It wasn't? Then what the hell was it, a game made by white guys pretending to be Japanese?

And all you people are wrong. KH: Coded will sell more and get a higher rating. It is also the main spinoff, being the only game taking place between KH2 & 3.

@hunter

The psp game is taking advantage of the 333MHZ processing power, in other words, better graphcis than Kingdom hearts 2 on the playstation 2 can be expected in kingdom hearts: Birth by sleep.
