      Aha! I knew the character models were the same exact ones used in KH3D!

      So if they can revamp the gameplay for KH1, why can't they make 358/2 Days playable? I want to see it on a console where the polygons aren't all jagged.

      I would think it has to do with revamping KH1's gameplay, a PS2 game, to be similar to KH2, another PS2 game, on a newer PS system while making Days playable means it has to go from a Handheld Nintendo system to a Sony console. But I don't know enough about this kind of stuff to say for sure. It seems like it would be a hell of a lot more work to port it from a touchscreen handheld to a Console.

      They could modify KH2 into 358/2 Days. It's probably one of those things that's easier said than done, but I just feel like just watching the cutscenes would be shallow compared to playing the game itself.

      I think it'll be a fine experience, as 358/2 was a good game, but too repetitive, And with these aproach we get the oportunity to see the memories of Roxas in a cronological fashion! Think about it, you are playing KH and BAM ----SPOILER---- you turn into a heartless-----SPOILER---- than you can see the birth of Roxas in Twilight town as cutscene... when you are playing Chain of Memories you can see the things Roxas is living at the same time it realy happens!
      That would be a fine experience indeed!
      But I do feel bad for Roxas... It was a good character and that was one of the only time that we would get to play with him (we did also at the begining of KHII).

      About adapting.. don't know about the programing behind it, but I did play it all with my Dualshock 3 controler + emu , so for controling there would be now issue.. maybe its a pratical problem (remaking the game from zero), or a legal issue (with nintendo). Either way what realy makes me sad is that this may also be true for Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, and I Would be so sad if I didn't had the oportunity to play it on my console :(

      Pretty obvious they're doing one for II, probably with Birth By Sleep, and...Theatre Mode for Re:Coded? I dunno anyone who's played that besides people on this forum lol

      I'm perfectly fine with only having the story aspect of 358/2 Days. The game was honestly boring, and kind of just a chore to get through. Only thing I enjoyed was the endgame, where the story FINALLY picked up.

      ~Added to the first post.~

      For 358/2 Days, I found it repetitive and could have had a lot of potential as a multiplayer game. As cool as it would be to see the game with Nomura's desire of analog control, I wouldn't hold it as a high priority.
      Thankful that cutscenes are being included so newcomers to the KH series won't be confused when playing KH2.

      This is gonna be on another console that I can't afford isn't it...

      I'm praying it's released on PS3 as I've already bought a 3DS for dream drop distance and a PSP for birth by sleep. If it's released on the PS4 though I was going to buy a PS4 anyway so it's all good. I just hope SE doesn't troll us all and release it on the Wii U or something.

      It's already confirmed for the PS3
