KH-Vids | Your ultimate source for Kingdom Hearts media

It seems in light of Nintendo's decision to hold their E3 event at 9AM PDT on June 16th, Square has officially pushed back their conference by one hour to 10AM PDT.

This now gives everyone the opportunity to catch all the E3 goodness without any worry of conflicting press event times!

4Gamer has released a couple of high quality images from Unchained X[chi], showing how different the browser game will look on mobile devices, which includes a new way to use the cards (now called medals for Unchained), and Re:coded/TWEWY-style scenes.

In addition to an interview with Famitsu, the Kingdom Hearts series director, Tetsuya Nomura, has provided a message for fans regarding the reveal of Unchained X[chi], discussing the meaning behind the name 'Unchained', and that the browser version of the game will still continue. Translation of Nomura's message can be read below:

News on Unchained X[chi] just keeps on rolling. A Japanese teaser site has launched for the game, which, while doesn't contain much at the moment, does include a slightly altered version of the logo. You can check out the website here.

Joined this week by staff guests @Stardust and @Cat~, @Misty, @libregkd, and @Calxiyn sit down this week to discuss gaming's potential as an educative tool! We begin, as always, with Kingdom Hearts news & updates, which this week include speculation on Square Enix Germany's Facebook tease (it has since been revealed to be a smartphone port of Kingdom Hearts X[chi]).

From there we launch into our topic for the day, inspired by the recent PlayStation Plus offering, Kisima Inŋitchuŋa (or Never Alone) a 2D puzzle/platformer that aims to highlight and share the culture of the Alaskan native Iñupiat culture. We cover how games can actively teach things like problem-solving skills, reflexes, critical thinking, and more, and how they have affected our development as both children and adults, and finally, how video games are an emerging artistic and educational medium.

As per usual, we answer user-submitted questions! @Quilligan sticks us in the animal kingdom, while @Graxe exercises his wordplay and challenges our Star Wars fan cred. We also plug our E3 coverage plans, which we hope you all will be excited about!
