Does anyone have the link to the interview where Nomura stated that Xemnas, Xaldin, and Roxas are the three strongest members of the Organization? Thx in advance.

Hmm... I might know someone...

I thought I had the interview excerpt but no... just a refference...

I'll ask *TN*, she knows everything...

here it is

THE ARTICLE
A Japanese Blog, Light in the Chaos managed to get a good analysis from the scans, and posted their point of the information up, some are old, some are new.

XIII Organization Battles
1. Demyx has 13 bars of health, also you'll have to defeat double the amount of Water Nobodies.

2. Xigbar's HP is unknown for now, but begins with a special attack.

3. Xemnas' battle seems to have a slight different ammount of reaction comands, however his HP bar is unknown for now.

4. All we know about Axel is that he has 16 bars of health.

There is an image of Xehanort's heartless grabing Roxas by the throat, also a new scene featuring DiZ is added.

DiZ: Feelings do not exist in Nobodies.

DiZ: Did you say Sora would hate you?

Riku: I can do nothing, but believe in DiZ.

100 Acre Woods Minigames

A few more Minigames have been revealed, besides "Vegetable Panic" there are 2 more now revealed "Balloon Glider" and a "Tiger Bounce" minigame.

Balloon Glider

Basically you need to get to the top of the tree, while avoiding Wasps, you mainly need to use the x button during this, in order to descend and ascend. It's been adjusted so you won't smack into the tree branches with wasps so easily. Once you get to the top, a prize awaits you. You have about 3 balloons to try this with.

It's noted that this is a remake of a GBA version.

Vegetable Panic
Here are some extra tidbits for it.

1. You can start the match by talking to the Rabbit.
2. You strike to the right with the square button, and strike to the left with the circle button.
3. You can fail this minigame, if you miss too much.
4. There are times when Pooh will be rolling as well.

Tiger Hop

1. This minigame can be failed if you mess up even once during this.
2. This is done by talking to (You guessed it!) Tiger.
3. You basically need to hop in the same order Tiger does.
4. You can use all 4 PS2 buttons (Circle, X, Triangle, Square) for this minigame.
5. You basically have to jump 25 times.

Re:COM Stuff

Card Stock

There's a new Card Stock move called "Wild Crusher" which can be used with a Donald, and Goofy Card.

Magnet Spiral
Sora brings all the enemies close to him, then blasts them away with a spiral. It's best to use this against 2 or more enemies.

Fire Burst
Sora blasts out a fire, that can damage an enemy, and any more enemies nearby.

- There is a Roulette wheel minigame, for cards.

Interview Notes

Nomura was not able to add in a Voice at every scene, however he hopes the users will understand that, although normally there is a balloon note displayed, it's only shown as subtitles.

The Novels, and Manga's are more of like a sidestory of Kingdom Hearts II, which is going to be added into KH2FM+. (So basically if you've read the Novels, and stuff, you will know most of the scenes that are going to happen in KH2FM+)

There's been some additions, as when great damage is done to an area, it can collapse an object (As shown in the re:COM Trailer).

Nomura considers Xemnas, Xaldin, and Roxas to be few of the strongest in the Organization.

Nomura notes that yes it will be hard to defeat Demyx in KH2FM+ when he has double the nobodies that needs to be defeated, but he has given off a big hint, by showing that Wisdom form was used during this match. He also expects alot of users to get a gameover at this part.

Uses of Forms, and equipment will and can provide great help now.

Nomura lets everyone know that it will be hard work to get to the area where all the Organization Battles are. (Laugh)

Nomura wishes everyone luck on Critical Mode.

"Roulette Wheel" Was added for sheer fun.

The Chapter of Riku has a big part in the game.

Nomura mainly wants you to challenge the XIIIth Order, after leveling up a bit and getting good equipment.

The new difficulty is mainly for those that thought Sephiroth to be weak.

Curious.

Sorry to threadjack., but where is an archive of all Nomura interviews? I would like to read them. After all, ICSP keeps referencing a specific one, but cannot give it to me.
