screens
Famitsu is currently hosting some new Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep (PSP) and Final Fantasy Dissidia screens. Also available are screens for Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days (DS) and Kingdom Hearts: Coded (cell phone). I got a chance to check out trailers for all of these games at TGS and was on the whole not terribly impressed by the latter two titles although Birth By Sleep looks like it will be the best of the lot. Dissidia also looks great as far as the graphics are concerned, but for gameplay, we'll just have to wait and see.

Square-Enix Still Keeping Final Fantasy XIII Behind Closed Doors
Attendees of Square-Enix's Jump Festa 2008 event—which actually takes place at the end of 2007—will be treated to an assault of new Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest games. The downside? Almost none of it will be playable. And the side that's deeper down the well of pain than that? A half-dozen new trailers, including new ones for Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep, will only be shown in the company's "Closed Door Mega Theater." That means seemingly endless waits for a look at the semi-private showing of the PlayStation 3, PSP and Nintendo DS follow ups to Squeenix's cash cows. It's quite cruel. More »

Fancy Up Your Kingdom Hearts Cosplay For Charity
Currently up for auction on eBay is this rather fine recreation of the Kingdom Hearts Ultima Keyblade. It is made out of wood and embellished with metallic paint weighing in at about fifteen pounds. 35% of the profits from the sale will go to benefit Child's Play. Be sure to check out the bottom of the auction page for a great video of various AMA 2007 cosplayers taking the Keyblade for a spin.
not final fantasy
Square Enix doesn't *just* do Final Fantasy re-makes and spin-offs. It also does Dragon Quest remakes and Kingdom Hearts spin-offs. And, erm, yoga games. Even though Konami has moved on from yoga to Pilates, Square Enix is offering DS de Hajimeru Tipness no Yoga, which was developed in connection with Japanese health club Tipness. Sadly, the in-game characters look decidedly normal. Frosted hair, leather capes and yoga posing could've really worked!

Square Enix Closed Mega Theater Impressions
Thanks to Mr. McWhertor I managed to score a ticket to the Square Enix Closed Mega Theater presentation which I mainly went to so I could check out the footage from the new Kingdom Hearts games. Upon arrival I passed up quite a large group of people waiting in line and was ushered over to the press area. Everyone looked to major Square fans and quite excited to be there. More »

Square Enix Online Store Dated
All the Final Fantasy, Dragon Quest and Kingdom Hearts you could ever want. And buy. On August 20th at 6pm PST, the Official Square Enix Online Merchandise Store opens its doors to sell, well, Square Enix merchandise. Feature products include Final Fantasy XII Play Arts Judge Magister Gabranth and a limited edition Final Fantasy VII Advent Children Sculpture Arts Sephiroth and Could Strife. Back at E3, we spoke to Square about the online store. The impetus for opening it? The company hopes to regulate pricing on its collectibles goods outside Japan. That, and make a crap load of cash.
Thanks, Tarthus!

Next Kingdom Hearts Probably Portable
Square-Enix's Tetsuya Nomura previously revealed that he wasn't making straight out Kingdom Hearts III. No, his next title sounded like it was going to be in the Disney/Square-Enix KH universe — A spin off of sorts. (Can you imagine Square making a spin-off? Impossible!) Nomura further explains: More »

New Kingdom Hearts Game
Most likely with out the words "kingdom" or hearts" in the game title. Tesuya Normura is already swearing up and down that his next game won't be KH III, but it will have similarities to the Disney/Square Enix series (I'm guessing giant shoes, raver shorts, and spikey hair for most of the characters' pret-a-porter, throw in some complicated plot lines and BLAM). Normura goes on to say: More »

Square Enix Giving PS3s To Japanese People
Individuals registered in "Square Enix members" (think Club Nintendo, but mopey) have a shot at winning one of thirty 60GB PLAYSTATION 3s.

Don't tell me that Square Enix can't figure out how many copies of their Kingdom Hearts games they've sold. Maybe they can't get a precise number, but I know they could ballpark it. More »
