Also, there is something else I noticed about five minutes ago on the web site's HQ version of the trailer. Now, you have to pause and rewind a gazillion times to see this, but if you look closely, the first instance we see Terra (the scene where he saves Ven from Eraqus), HE IS HOLDING VEN'S KEYBLADE (WAYWARD WIND)!!! How weird is that!? So I guess thiss means that your character will be able to wield the Keyblades of the other two (Terra -> Ven & Aqua, Ven -> Terra & Aqua, and Aqua -> Terra & Ven)? Well, maybe they altered the cutscene and had Ven get his Keyblade knocked out of his hand and Terra uses it to defend him before he summons his own. Whatever it is, I hope it is explained, but I am still pushing for Ven getting his origional KH2FM+ Keyblade, I CAN NOT STRESS IT ENOUGH!!! Still, lets hope for the best, because this game won't be region locked and we might even keep their better WLAN signal (the network-wide one, not our sucky 60-foot-radius one) for Mirage Arena (I still haven't found anyone to multi-play with). The more additions, the better I guess. [[User:AROS|AROS]] 17:24, September 27, 2010 (UTC)
...The Wayward Wind ''is'' the Keyblade he used in the secret movie.[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 13:38, September 28, 2010 (UTC)
We can't be sure about that. We thought the same thing about the earthshaker and rainfell didn't we?--[[User:Xabryn|Xabryn]] 23:42, September 28, 2010 (UTC)
:No. There were massive aesthetic changes between the Secret Movie Keyblades and Earthshaker and Rainfell. On the other hand, Ven's keyblade looks nearly the exact same. I say nearly because I can't see any differences, but there still may be. {{KKDSig|1}}
::No, we never did. We thought they were the Ends of the Earth and the Stormfall, and those even appeared within KH2FM in the normal game, and retained the same design in KHBBS, plus keychains.[[User:KrytenKoro|<small>Glorious</small>]] [[User_talk:KrytenKoro|<small>CHAOS!</small>]] 03:39, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
::{{ErryTalk|zexiontext=Well, in reply to the assumption of Terra using Ven's keyblade, I think it was only a mesh glitch where they placed Ven's keyblade instead of Terra's accidentally, either that or they get the option to use it.}}
Okay, returning to my whole Wayward Wind "rant-'n'-rave", I've been hearing most of the things people are saying/speculating about the FM trailer, and as far as Monstro and Eraqus I'm pretty excited but since all I care about is the damn freaking Keyblade (sorry for the "intense" language, well it is for me, I am just really focused on this), so I tend to focus on that stuff more. Anyway, I've looked and listened, and as far as Ven's Keyblade goes, it sounds like a lot of people are speculating that "Ven gets a 'new' Keyblade that looks just like his original (Wayward Wind) but slightly darker in color". Now I have read this same thing on several Kingdom Hearts fan communities (like KH Ultimania, KH Network, etc.) and I have looked at the trailer a bazzilion times and I finally got the nerve to ask myself "Where the heck does it show/say that!?" I've seen the trailer and as far as I can tell from it Ven was holding his starting Keyblade and there was nothing different about it. But what do I know? I assumed everyone was talking about the scene where he said "Friends forever" at the Keyblade Graveyard, but maybe everyone was talking about the other scenes with Ven fighting and took really good care in observing. Either way, original or not, new or not, redesigned Wayward Wind or not (well scratch the last "not"), I just hope that they give Ven his Wayward Wind redesigned to look more like it did in the secret ending, because I feel so disapointed, excited, and confused at the same time![[User:AROS|AROS]] 21:40, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

=== Eraqus' Setiment / Remnant / Spirit / Whatever ===
 
A lot of people say the armored figure at the end is Eraqus, and if you look closely, it has the same boots as Eraqus. My question is if this guy is another secret boss or not. Vanitas' Remnant was already challenging, then the mysterious figure was near impossible, so how can they possibly make anything tougher? Mar 03:46, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
 
There's plenty of ways they could make a tougher boss. We don't know anything about the armored guy yet, other than that he/she briefly appears in the trailer.{{User:LapisScarab/Sig}}03:50, September 23, 2010 (UTC)
:...I think you guys are jumping the gun on calling it a secret boss. I've seen nothing official that says that, and like you say, he just appears in the trailer. For all we know it could be just Eraqus armoring up to fight Terra and they are featuring it in the trailer because, well, it's new content. If that is the case, they don't need to make it harder than the Unknown guy. (which I doubt they'd do anyway. The Unknown was a boss made so that none of them could beat it. Trying to top that would be, well, difficult, to say the least.)--[[User:Otherarrow|Otherarrow]] 13:42, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

Can someone please tell me why Square Enix keep releasing Final Mix titles? This site categorizes them as remakes, but last I checked, it's not normal to announce a remake of a game, in the same month that it is released. It's not like the additional content couldn't have been programmed into the game from the start. To me, it just feels like an attempt to sell more games more than anything else, since the original games don't tend to sell as well as they should.

ARG ARG ARG ARG ARG-wait, who gives a crap? it's just a rehash of the BBS we got, so why is everyone making a big deal out of it? Yeah, Nomura lied... but who cares? It doesn't affect us, and this probably just means that the Mysterious Figure is as canon as Sora, or Donald's terrible singing voice. Of course, if it comes to US shores, I couldn't care less. If it comes to US shores on the 3DS, then sign me up. Anyway, your thoughts. I crave them. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png

"If you want light to rule over all, then you must rid the world of everything else."

My thoughts exactly. From what I understand, it's only an NA port. Sure, they're getting what we got, but hey, we got it FIRST; that can never change. Hell, there might be a new Secret Ending, but that's what YouTube is for, my friends!

For some, it's the principle of the thing, methinks. However, it is just a Japanese version of the International release, and I'm happy for the Japanese because they get what we got.

And if there's a secret ending? We'll do what we always do, though with the amount of stuff they put on our version, I think that they can barely add anything else. Tamroc7 01:10, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

It's because the Japanese always got the Final Mixes and the added content. Nomura promised that the NA additions were a treat for us, and he promised that Re:coded was a treat for us. Instead, the Japanese are almost immediately getting BBSFM, and they get Re:coded even before we do. If it was at least equal, that would be one thing (and great), but basically....it's like you're the youngest child, and even on your birthday, the oldest sibling gets the best present.Glorious CHAOS! 01:27, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Alright. But still....Nomura...I'm starting to lose faith in you....at least TRY to keep your word.

Is it just me or does that image that Maggosh provided us with bear an uncanny resemblance to Monstro?
Well, on the other hand:
  1. Japanese names for the NA-added material.
  2. Unlike PS2, PSP games are not region-locked.
Still, Nomura has lied about Final Mixes and treating America pretty much every time.Glorious CHAOS! 14:25, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

I guess in the end even if Nomura doesn't want to do something, if the guys in charge of Square get a large demand from fans (why wouldn't they considering the bonuses in the US version of the game) he is given no choice, at least, I hope so because the only other option is he likes lieing to us. --Evnyofdeath 14:35, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Actually, the PSP isn't region locked like the PS2 was. Ergo, you can import it when it comes out. I probably won't, since I have YouTube and this sight to provide me information about the game, but if you feel so inclined, do so. Tamroc7 15:42, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Where did Nomura say there wouldn't be a Final Mix? http://forums.khinsider.com/future-kingdom-hearts/147012-ultimania-full-nomura-interview.html

Are you going to release the international version in Japan as you have with KH and KHII? Nomura: Well, if i say "we don't have plans yet" people will take that as "no" so I can't really say anything. Since the voice acting is done so well it wouldn't be bad releasing a Final Mix... but people only got so excited about KHII FM+ because it was sold with Re:COM. We're not going to put that much into it a second time.

Anyone know where Nomura said "No Final Mix"?204.211.185.107 15:54, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

That's not the only one. There was another one in the Dengeki interview, I thought.Glorious CHAOS! 16:58, September 16, 2010 (UTC)

Most of this stuff is decided by people way above Nomura's pay grade. But that's not top say he doesn't enjoy it, because adding all the stuff they do and complicating the plot even more is just something he does because he can.Would a Final Mix be made without him? yes.

Look, I don't like this either, but to say that Nomura said this would never happen, (the difference being between "No Plans at the Moment" and "Not ever Gonna happen") or that this is even his decision to make and not an executive, is a little disingenuous. (And because this is the age of distribution, the Final Mixes are in english and Disney will be angry as hell about hiring the English voice actors again, I'm still holding out hope for a western release. Not much of one I'll admit, though I honestly don't care either way.)

Not only is there a Monstro arena, but the final round is Monstro! The new Armored Warrior could very well be Eraqus; we might be looking at yet another Sentiment boss.


Nomura: Well, if I say “we don’t plan on it yet”, people will take that as “no”, so I can’t really say anything. Since the voice acting is done so well it wouldn’t be so bad releasing a Final Mix... but people only got so excited about KHII FM+ because it was sold with Re:COM. We’re not going to put that much into it a second time (laugh).

Will there be a BBS: Final Mix? No plans at the moment. Though after seeing the new trailer Japanese fans are arguing about the extras we are getting in the West. But at the same time he isn't sure how many of them could actually stand the difficulty.

-- Since you’ll be changing so much, does that mean we can expect a Final Mix? Nomura: Well, first we’ll have to see just how much it becomes different from the domestically released version. But we’d really like to be able to release one “Kingdom Hearts” game a year. We don’t want several years to go by without there being anything.

Those are the quotes I remembered, and found on that site. He doesn't explicitly deny a BBSFM, no.Glorious CHAOS! 14:11, September 17, 2010 (UTC)

TALK - The only Final Mix I actually want is Kingdom Hearts 3D Final Mix! There NEEDS to be a Final Mix for a game on a Nintendo console!
Well... I've never been more disgusted in my entire life. (sigh)... If only this series wasn't so dang awesome I would've left quite a long time ago. It still baffles me why they just can't make the same thing for everyone, or release the Final Mix for both countries. I'm going to send Tetsuya Nomura a stern fax...

Man you have got to be F-ing kidding me!!! I mean I have been waiting patiently for Birth by Sleep for five years, spoiled myself aout of jealousy and envy of the Japanese, and right when I finally get it,before I'm even done with Aqua's story, BLAM!!! They go and anounce that they couldn't stand watching us getting atleast three extras and so they have compenste by giving themselves all of our extras and then add a bajillion more! I mean I can understand getting our secret boss, but is it really neccessary to give them like, what, +two more! What is the point of Monstro, unless you're going to actually go through with making Pinochio's world part of the game. And the irony of it all is that they might actually give Ven his original secret ending Keyblade, and that was what I have been striving for for our version, and we didn't get it! It makes me so MAD!!! I swear, Nomura, one of these days... Still, dispite my anger, I'm getting it anyway, after all, I should've seen this one comeing. I just hope that the only new scenes they get are in their new boss battles, because I hate hearing our NA voices w/ their Japanes text but hearing nothing but silence when they get a new scene! And if not, they better have those new scenes english dubbed, because they owe us that much! I know I sound unreasonable, but shouldn't I be!? Shouldn't we all!? But I promise, that if the rumor of Ven getting his Secret Ending Keyblade is legit, then I guess that will be enough to calm me down. I guess I do need a new thing to save my money on now anyway.

This is a couple of new things they're adding (I for one am excited that now there's an excuse for us to get to see more--Armored Eraqus apparently, new secret ending, etc.). So Nomura lied, so what? It isn't the first time he's misled us in regards to the series. Remamber how those three knights were totally new characters? What? The brown-haired one is Xehanort? Pfft! You're seeing things. Just sit back and enjoy the new cutscenes, fandubbed for your confusion.

Interdiction KHD.png We should wait before saying that he is Eraqus in the actual articles. Simply holding the Keyblade isn't quite enough proof. On a less serious note, his armor looks friggin' awesome. Now I'm curious as to what Xehanort's armor looked like.

Maybe they just have a berserk coloration and I forgot, but the Wild Bruiser is black instead of brown in this. I think we might be getting recolored enemies again.

Also, there is something else I noticed about five minutes ago on the web site's HQ version of the trailer. Now, you have to pause and rewind a gazillion times to see this, but if you look closely, the first instance we see Terra (the scene where he saves Ven from Eraqus), HE IS HOLDING VEN'S KEYBLADE (WAYWARD WIND)!!! How weird is that!? So I guess thiss means that your character will be able to wield the Keyblades of the other two (Terra -> Ven & Aqua, Ven -> Terra & Aqua, and Aqua -> Terra & Ven)? Well, maybe they altered the cutscene and had Ven get his Keyblade knocked out of his hand and Terra uses it to defend him before he summons his own. Whatever it is, I hope it is explained, but I am still pushing for Ven getting his origional KH2FM+ Keyblade, I CAN NOT STRESS IT ENOUGH!!! Still, lets hope for the best, because this game won't be region locked and we might even keep their better WLAN signal (the network-wide one, not our sucky 60-foot-radius one) for Mirage Arena (I still haven't found anyone to multi-play with). The more additions, the better I guess. AROS 17:24, September 27, 2010 (UTC)

...The Wayward Wind is the Keyblade he used in the secret movie.Glorious CHAOS! 13:38, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

We can't be sure about that. We thought the same thing about the earthshaker and rainfell didn't we?--Xabryn 23:42, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

No. There were massive aesthetic changes between the Secret Movie Keyblades and Earthshaker and Rainfell. On the other hand, Ven's keyblade looks nearly the exact same. I say nearly because I can't see any differences, but there still may be. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png
No, we never did. We thought they were the Ends of the Earth and the Stormfall, and those even appeared within KH2FM in the normal game, and retained the same design in KHBBS, plus keychains.Glorious CHAOS! 03:39, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, returning to my whole Wayward Wind "rant-'n'-rave", I've been hearing most of the things people are saying/speculating about the FM trailer, and as far as Monstro and Eraqus I'm pretty excited but since all I care about is the damn freaking Keyblade (sorry for the "intense" language, well it is for me, I am just really focused on this), so I tend to focus on that stuff more. Anyway, I've looked and listened, and as far as Ven's Keyblade goes, it sounds like a lot of people are speculating that "Ven gets a 'new' Keyblade that looks just like his original (Wayward Wind) but slightly darker in color". Now I have read this same thing on several Kingdom Hearts fan communities (like KH Ultimania, KH Network, etc.) and I have looked at the trailer a bazzilion times and I finally got the nerve to ask myself "Where the heck does it show/say that!?" I've seen the trailer and as far as I can tell from it Ven was holding his starting Keyblade and there was nothing different about it. But what do I know? I assumed everyone was talking about the scene where he said "Friends forever" at the Keyblade Graveyard, but maybe everyone was talking about the other scenes with Ven fighting and took really good care in observing. Either way, original or not, new or not, redesigned Wayward Wind or not (well scratch the last "not"), I just hope that they give Ven his Wayward Wind redesigned to look more like it did in the secret ending, because I feel so disapointed, excited, and confused at the same time!AROS 21:40, October 12, 2010 (UTC)

Secret Ending plus my annoyance at Square Enix[edit]

Okay.......now i'm really cheesed off at Square Enix.....how come they HAD to put in a final mix for BBS when thankfully BBS is the only time when we actually got North American exclusives, but NO.......the Japanese have to beat us to it and get new stuff that we don't have. *sigh* I wonder if the Secret Ending will have anything to do with Kingdom Hearts 3 or 3DS despite Versus XIII hasn't been finished yet.

Eraqus' Setiment / Remnant / Spirit / Whatever[edit]

A lot of people say the armored figure at the end is Eraqus, and if you look closely, it has the same boots as Eraqus. My question is if this guy is another secret boss or not. Vanitas' Remnant was already challenging, then the mysterious figure was near impossible, so how can they possibly make anything tougher? Mar 03:46, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

There's plenty of ways they could make a tougher boss. We don't know anything about the armored guy yet, other than that he/she briefly appears in the trailer.LapisLazuliScarab03:50, September 23, 2010 (UTC)

...I think you guys are jumping the gun on calling it a secret boss. I've seen nothing official that says that, and like you say, he just appears in the trailer. For all we know it could be just Eraqus armoring up to fight Terra and they are featuring it in the trailer because, well, it's new content. If that is the case, they don't need to make it harder than the Unknown guy. (which I doubt they'd do anyway. The Unknown was a boss made so that none of them could beat it. Trying to top that would be, well, difficult, to say the least.)--Otherarrow 13:42, September 25, 2010 (UTC)

Fianl Mix... Not the final unfortunately[edit]

Can someone please tell me why Square Enix keep releasing Final Mix titles? This site categorizes them as remakes, but last I checked, it's not normal to announce a remake of a game, in the same month that it is released. It's not like the additional content couldn't have been programmed into the game from the start. To me, it just feels like an attempt to sell more games more than anything else, since the original games don't tend to sell as well as they should. LiLLiPaDDy ~True tears are never seen, only hidden~ 10:32, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

The game was not announced 'in the same month that it is released', since Final Mix is only for Japan, and the Japanese version of the original was released in January. But you're right about the two being very close together. 82.37.246.236 13:45, September 18, 2010 (UTC)

Well it's not normal to remake a game in the same year it's released, as well as in the same month the translated version is released. LiLLiPaDDy ~True tears are never seen, only hidden~ 05:17, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

I think it started with KHFM which was created because of all the extra content in the US version of KH, and from then it just became a tradition for the main games in the KH series to get Final Mixes. --Evnyofdeath 07:56, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Nomura said that he will send the final mixes to the U.S as Trump Cards, which may come... in 10-20 years.Roulette Bonus.pngKeyblade0Premium Bonus.png

maybe he'll make some kind of a "Final Mix collection" after Kingdom Hearts series is finished. Think about it, you can replay your past favourite KH games with full features from the original Final Mixes 17master 13:04, September 22, 2010 (UTC)
