Yes. o_O I thiiiiink he's MX. And Mark Hamill is voice acting in BBS too. They're pulling out all the stops for it. @[email protected];

And yup, the EU release date is Sept 10. :D You can play it right along with us this time around!!

I think it is MX he does. I just rewatched the vid again.

As for Mark Hamill, I heard that, too. I'm debating who to dress up as for the release: Spock, Vanitas, Joker, or Luke Skywalker. WHY must the nerd gods torment me?! I think Imma have a nerdy breakdown.

Yaaaaaay! -dances around- That gives me 10 days to beat it in, then I can go off to uni and talk about it with the other KH geeks there. <3

3 day wait > 10 day wait. n__n

Now, should I go in cosplay again, or...? x3333; -excited, dammit-

Mmmmm, I know it was a stupid question, buttttttt. x333;

I guess the real question is who to cosplay as... It'd most likely be a casual Roxas/ Ven.

I wonder if I can get my friends to cosplay with me this time. x3;

So, Square-Enix released some sales figures the other day (here). I guess the main reporting sites weren't kidding when they said KH was more well-received in NA than JP, if the Days sales are anything to go by.

Maybe that's why they have no problem splurging to hire Nemoy and Hamill as voices on a portable game for NA/EU release. xD;

Spoiler:
Especially since I'm certain they'll be hiring them again later on for a main game, if the endings of Coded/BBS are anything to go by. @[email protected]

Yeah, I know. D:

I was gonna say maybe they all just imported, but it was only a 10 day window between NA and EU releases. @[email protected]; It'd take that long just to ship from NA. And since it was only 10 days, you can't say "oh, there just hasn't been as much time between its release there and now" like you could argue for the lower FF13 sales outside of JP. @[email protected]

I love how my edit got cut off. -_-"


I actually had posted the link to that article, the same link you posted, Riolu, and my two cents on her as a VA. I personally hope she isn't doing Aqua. To me, Aqua needs a more mature, sensitive, yet strong voice. That's her character. Unless Willa can pull something out of her hat or wherever, and she is indeed doing Aqua, I dunno how I'll feel.


As for those figures, now it doesn't surprise me that they'd get Hamill to do a voice. I didn't know Square had anything to do with Arkham. Now that I do, and considering how Square likes to use the same VAs..... it all fits into place. My money is on him voicing Eraqus. That'd be cool. The ultimate hero of the Light Side of the Force playing the Master of the Light Side of the Keyblade Wielders? Fitting. Also, it'd be pretty awesome if he would go up against the Spock-infused Master Xehanort. It may all sound highly illogical, but the Force is with me! =3



(BTW, if NO ONE can tell yet, I'm in a permanent state of bliss after hearing this piece of news.)

Square bought out Eidos who was the publisher of Arkham Asylum. I was really confused the other day when I got an email from Square-Enix advertising the GOTY version of the Batman game. XD; I had to look up why they were sending me official emails about it, lmao.

I hope Youtube is working when I get home tonight so I can actually hear her and judge if she'd make a decent Aqua. u_u;

Days was advertised on TV over here (I recall fangirling over the advert), but it wasn't very well promoted in-store (in GAME, at least, but seeing how Gamestation are owned by the same company I can't imagine them being any different). Within a few weeks of it being out it was taken off the most prominent displays (ie. where they put the crappy third party kiddy games), and since October I've seen places selling it for £9.99 or including it in buy-one-get-one-free offers. So they obviously didn't ship as many copies as expected. x:

Again, because of the 10-day difference, a lot of people may have imported. In theory, BbS should sell better over here, especially because of the secret ending at the end of KH2. Then again, more people have a DS than they do a PSP, so you gotta consider that, too.

BLARGH. I hate economical businessy thingers. ;-; -faints-

I'm sick of waiting for my brother to buy me a new PSP(cause he lost the old one, remember?). So come release time, I'm just gonna save up and buy the bundle. D: Should be definitely worth it, and there's a 90% that there will be a bundle. I mean there was for Days, and Crisis core, and Dissidia, and even FFTactics WotL if I recall right.

As do I. But, as far as Willa goes, the Force is telling me that I'm standing against the galaxy by disliking her for Aqua.


[/Star Wars references]


BTW, expect a LOT of Star Wars/Trek references from me for awhile in this thread. It shouldn't come as a surprise, though. I've grown up with both series' and all. I could probably school any of you at Star Wars trivia. (challenges?). But yeah.... just a PSA for you guys.

I don't think it's a KH edition PSP though... I'm pretty sure it's just a standard silver one with a few other things with it?

EDIT: Yeah, the BbS PSP was Japan only. The one for the NA release is the 'mystic silver' 3000 model.

EDITEDIT: I think that Willa will be playing Terra, and Mark will be Aqua. c; Another Nomura twist~ Also!:

Spoiler:
Has Hayley-Joel been confirmed as Vanitas? Seeing as Miryu Ino (I think that's his name) also voiced him~

Yeah, the PSP is just a silver PSP.

Watched that interview vid last night and I'm not sure how I feel about her playing Aqua. :( I guess I'll just have to wait for spoken trailers... and I'm sure we'll get one at E3 this year.

Spoiler:
He hasn't been confirmed (to my knowledge) but I'm sure he'll play him.

:| I wonder if he'll also play little!Sora. That would just be... weird. I hope he doesn't. u_u;;

Well, that's true, but if we're going for believability... 5-year-old Sora should not have a deep voice. XD; I'm sure they can find a voice actress who can mimic KH1 Sora somewhat. D: Or I hope they can.

But the 5 year old Sora never had a voice in KH1, did he? I'm sure that the clips with him and Riku when they were in the cave talking about monsters were silent. But there are plenty of good VAs out there who can probably do the job, like Lightning says~

Guys, it's just dawned on me. The reason why they've got Mark Hamil is so he can voice Terra's Pants. Not Terra.
