I posted this in the now-closed thread:
As stated before, Kingdom Hearts is the brainchild of Tetsuya Nomura. He has full creative control over the series, and is personally involved with every game that comes out, even the mobile phone games.
From the article. Only one thing wrong with this ... Disney owns the characaters that have made this series so popular. And Disney seems to be really behind the Wii (and making money that way).
Plus, if Nomura is so into Sony platforms and has complete control, why is there even a DS version of the game. (I did not mention mobile phones because Sony is into that too).
Basically this is as much fanboy rubbish -- plus this was an article saying it won't be on 360. It even admits it could come out on Wii:
3) The game honestly has a better chance of finding its way to the Wii before the Xbox. Nomura seems to have quite a liking for Nintendo, he’s already developed 2 “Kingdom Hearts” titles for them, “Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories” for the Gameboy Advance, and the upcoming “Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days” for the DS
Finally, connecting BluRay to PS3 is a bit spurius. After all, games based on Sony's movie studios are multi platform (Calling James Bond).
All I can say is consider the source(s).
We will know about KH3 -- when and IF it comes. That IF may be getting larger as there are few Disney franchises worth exploring and the longer delay makes a sequel less likely.
ADD FROM PREVIOUS POST: Remember that while SE does the development, Disney owns much of the content (Donald, Goofy, the world's they visit, etc.). Without Disney, there is no Kingdom Hearts. So SE is beholden to Disney unless it wants to start visiting another animation universe. I can see it now - Kingdom Hearts III visits Hannah-Barabera's worlds: Flintstones, Jetsons, Yogi Bear, etc.
