Kingdom Hearts 3? Wii exclusive? (rumor)

[QUOTE="Finale-"]

Why would you want to play KH on the Wii?

I mean honestly.

MoldOnHold

You want to rapidly swing the Wiimote for over 40+ hours?

[QUOTE="Kekira"][QUOTE="Zhengi"][QUOTE="Rough_Divider"]

I don't think motion sensing controls would work well with Kh combat, it would make it slow paced, rather than just button mashing to attack, swinging the wii mote to attack over and over and over again while jumping and running would be quite annoying with the wii-mote. Unless they totally changed the gameplay I can't see it going to the Wii. I have a feeling there going to make it a card based game like chain of memories if it goes to the Wii.

This is one of the things I hate about the Wii, every single game has to revolve around motion sensing or else it would defeat the hole purpose of the Wii-mote and motion sensing doesn't exactly fit every game genre like a normal controller would.

goblaa

Who says that swinging the wiimote is the only way to attack? I thought the wiimote also had buttons.

It's kind of like the DS. Just because it has a touch screen doesn't mean that every game has to use it.

That's all sheep talk about with the reason for why it'd make a good Wii game.

Yes, but motion sensing is a tool for devs, not a toy. You shouldn't just shove wiimote swinging into a game. Good devs like SE know this.

Though, I'm not sure how one wold implement motion controls into KH. Maybe the pointer could be used for lock-on...who knows. Nunchuck tilt for camera control worked great in marvel.

All I'm saying is that devs have the option of using motion sensing or not. I'd prefer if they did cause motion sensing is fun. But games like No More Heroes will primarily have button pressing to make the attacks. The only time the motion sensing is used is when the character unleashes a special attack. Nothing wrong with that and I think it can work fine. Why does everyone think that KH3 must primarily be motion sensing? There are other alternatives and all it takes is a creative mind to make use of it.

Well if they didn't put motion sensing on it wouldn't it just be better to just put it on the PS3 or 360 cause if it's not going to take advantage of the Wii's only key feature which is motion sensing (apparently better controls) then you'd rather have the better graphics of the PS3/360 than the Wii with PS2 graphics and normal controls. But it's not about what we want is it, if Square-enix think it's going to make them profit they will put it on the Wii.

Exactly what I mean, why wouldn't they try that? I've played all of the KH games andthose games are pretty fast paced considering it's an action rpg. I can't see the motion controls working well, yes their are the other buttons, but the main reason sheep keep talking about having KH on the Wii would be better is because of using the Wii's motion controls, but that wouldn't work well because of the way KH games work. If there were a few extra buttons it could work unless they go with a KH:COM format but there's problems with implementing motion controls with that style too.

[QUOTE="Zhengi"][QUOTE="mistervengeance"]yes. its just damage control, because the wii mote has like 5 easily accesible buttons. and 2 of them are triggers.

the down on the d-pad

a button

b trigger

z trigger

c button

i don't see a next gen game with 5 buttons working out so well.

mistervengeance

Just wait till MP3 and SMG come out. Also, just because you have no vision doesn't mean that devs don't have it. Play a game like Godfather and you'll see excellent use of the buttons. Play SSX Blur and you'll see the same.

I also have no problems reaching the Left, Right, and Up buttons of the Wiimote either. Now add in tilt, motion sensing, and the pointer, and any game will have a lot more options than before.

okay, but how would those work in a traditional styled game such as kingdom hearts?

The same way it worked for all the traditional controls he mentioned. I have not played KH, so if you want to, could you post the controls and I'll convert them for you.

I'm sorry, but "the latest rumour on the street" doesn't cut it for me. Plus, as said in every single KH3 thread - The next KH game isn't KH3 and is a spinoff aimed for handhelds.kiruyama

In the sneak peak on KH2:FM, it kind of leads to the idea that it'll be a prequel that focuses on the Keyblade War.

[QUOTE="Metroid_Time"][QUOTE="Zhengi"]

[QUOTE="olimcool"]i think that that is doubtful considering square likes to push the grafix and will prob stay on sony brandRedgarl

If they like to push graphics, then why did they stay with the PS2?

Very, very true. Kingdom Hearts would have looked much better on the Gamecube or Xbox but they had no where near the uderbase.

You just found the reason, SquareEnix would likely switch to the biggest userbase console. They did with PS and they stayed with Sony on the PS2. The Wii is their next move.

Yeah, they had what, two? Three games confirmed before the Wii even launched? SE is definately jumping on-board with the Wii. Good to see them back where they started.

Nomura Interview: Next Kingdom Hearts Game on PSP, DS and Mobile

In a recent interview, Tetsuya Nomura let slip a few details about the next game in the Kingdom Hearts series. While details about this new project are few and should be viewed skeptically, Nomura did state that it is not Kingdom Hearts III. It is, instead, a side-story to Sora's tale.

Part of the focus of this new story, Nomura stated, will be the events that led to Mickey possessing a keyblade, and what took place in the World of Darkness. Nomura also wants to focus on developing the character of Roxas.

Concerning platform, Nomura mentioned the PlayStation Portable, the Nintendo DS, and cell phones. He also pointed out that the official announcement had not yet occurred, but that it might come in the near future

Newsflash, using motion sensing alone would not work at all for a game like Kingdom Hearts. Too fast paced and to much to do all at once.

I think people already said that Wiimote motions would be used just for attacking with the keyblade, no one said that every action would be mapped for motion controls.

http://www.kh-2.net/?nav=47861

Ack! FF13 Vids' blog user did a sneak attack. Mr. Mori's part only talk about the Square-Enix Party while Nomura talked mainly about the capture method and secrets of the Mushroom XIII in the interview.

The highlights that the FF13 Vids' user picked:

Nomura: I think, we can do various announcements for "It's a Wonderful World" and "CC:FFVII".

Nomura: FFXIII, somewhat, has a new image. For a few seconds, there will be some FF Verses XIII images too. Fabula Nova Crystalis is one of the three titles that are moving now, which includes FF Agito XIII.

Nomura: It's possible that FF Agito XIII will receive the most impact with Fabula Nova Crystallis. The movie (or trailer) isn't different from the one before, and the image for a real machine (battle system) is seen entering quietly, too. These kind of things can be done with cell phones. It becomes an image.

Nomura: The announcement time of a new KH project might be announced soon. I think that we can expect the title to be announced in the hidden-ball play*.

It also appears that Shimomura will be attending the Square-Enix Party. She's looking forward to meeting people who are not able to be easily met. Yoko asks everyone to wait patiently.

Sources:FF13 Vids and Studio Midiplex

*Edit: Sorry, I should've explained what "hidden-ball play" is so don't worry. It's not your fault for not understanding this. This is what I posted in Gamefaqs.

"Hidden-ball play" is a term from baseball in which, a fielder has the ball and hides it from the runner, tricking the runner to think another fielder has the ball or the ball went out of their reach. Once the runner reaches the base, the fielder instantly takes out the ball and outs the runner.

So, in relation to Nomura, he's basically hiding the title behind his back and is waiting to release it to us.

This extra interview info is about the "new KH project" from the magazine scan that was posted in the previous post.

Nomura: It is not Kingdom Hearts III, but it is an anecdote (extra or side-story) work! I think Sora [still] has a big role to fill! So let's focus on other characters other than Sora for the following work now. (Tomo's note: Nope, doesn't mean new outfit for Sora...)

Nomura: I did nothing but talk about "Birth by Sleep". Also, I want to explain what Mickey did in the World of Darkness, and also how he got his keyblade.

Nomura: I have a feeling that I want to work on developing Roxas the most. It is interesting to create in one year, the birth of him, and then next, the disappearance of him.

Nomura: I want to make this [new project] slightly different from the Kingdom Hearts' series, and change the system a little.

Nomura: The multi-developing makes me want to put it on something else, without thinking. If we follow this idea, it would be hard to choose if to make the game for the "PSP", "NDS" or the cell phone.

And that I can agree with. :)

That was all I was trying to get through as it bothers me to no end when people say things like that when it's not really possible. :P

Wow old topic... lol I'm reading these posts and I decide to look at the date and what do I see? Aug 24, 2007.

Needless to say, KH3 will be announced once Tetsuya Nomura is done with Final Fantasy Versus XIII. What platform he puts the game on, who knows?

It would make sense to put it on the PS3 because the KH team is working on FFVSXIII plus Nomura is one that likes to work with a lot of power I do believe.

It would make sense to put it on the Wii because the potential sales are there plus they could implement some Wii-mote control into the game, much like SMG possibly?

No one will know until official confirmation. Maybe the Wii will get a spin-off and PS3 will get KH3 or maybe the other way around. Until we find out, just enjoy Birth by Sleep and 358/2 Days once they are released. :)

It would make more sense then putting on the PS3.

A lot of PS2 casuals who probably played it own a Wii.

The PS3 userbase is small.

The Wii is insanely popular in Japan.

Most likely a spin-off just like the DS game....

I'm n ot gonna deny it would be a new way but let me post something you typed up.

ARE YOU SERIOUS!!!!????

*Open drawers, grabs a gun and points in head*

*Quickly noticed rumor on title*

its going to be a spin-off

Don;t scare me like that....

i think that that is doubtful considering square likes to push the grafix and will prob stay on sony brandolimcool

Is that why FF titles were on the PS2 because of deh grafix?:roll:

Anyway I say this is highly possible I mean we are getting DQ9 on the DS :D and then there is the whole Wiimote - keyblade thing which I am sure Square could get right.
