I cant wait!!!! I just started playing Kingdome Hearts 2 on my PS2 not to long ago. I figured since I was waiting for RE5 I might aswell entertain myself for awhile with one of my favorite games ever.
"I need to get Chain of Memories, but I can't justify buying a PS2 game."What's the difference?

"As long it's avaliable for PS3 and only avaliable for the 360--like Star Ocean--I'm happy.You mean exclusive to PS3?

You're siding with cooperations, not gamers.
SO4 shouldn't be exclusive. Neither should KH3

I seriously doubt Square is stupid enough to bring KH 3 to the PS3. The audience and the dollars are obvously on the Wii (or the DS).
Who can honestly say that KH on the PS3 at this point makes any kind of financial sense at all? If they choose to develop Kingdom Heart 3 on the Ps3 which as I said i seriously doubt they're stupid enough to do, it would be a multi-release on ps3/x360.
"I seriously doubt Square is stupid enough to bring KH 3 to the PS3. The audience and the dollars are obvously on the Wii (or the DS).So just because it's based on Disney characters and is seemingly childish on the outside, it deserves to be on the Wii?

"Deserves"? Don't understand that question.
It's about making money, Square has been taking heavy losses these last quarters and the PS3 is not selling good in any part of the world either hardware och software wise, and only purely hardcore franchises has made any revenue. It makes no financial sense at all to put KH3 on the Ps3 while it makes unbelievable super mega fuck sense to put it on the Wii, "deservingly" or not. Jus ask yourself: Would Square like to make money? Answer it in your head.
I'm not discussing the content of the game at all, which is another topic but since you mentioned it, yes it makes even more sense from that viewpoint.

Actually the problem is not so much that Square will publish it on the wii, it is more likely that Disney (who truly only cares to make a quick buck out of their characters) pressures Square to publish it on the wii. I would not like this to happen as I have been waiting on this game for a pretty damn long time, and I would like something to show for that (better graphics, new moves, larger levels, more detailed graphics) instead of another ps2 game (because the wii has basicaly a little more power than a ps2). I think that the Kingdom Hearts demographic is a very strange and unique spread, it encompasses FF fans, JRPG fans, KH fans Disney fans, and small susceptible kids and their equally influenceable parents. The small kids+parents+disney fans are mroe common in the wii demographic, while the FF and KH fans and JRPG fans would most likely favor the ps3 (or a 360 multiplat with ps3).
All in all as a business decision the most sensible thing is get it out on the wii, but at this point its a pretty damn wild card to bet on the kids and the disney fans. I mean look at what sells on the wii, regardless of install base, basically anything published by nintendo, or that has wii in the title, or that has game in the title. I think KH3 would be lost in a sea of crap and would be shunned by the "hardcore" that are looking for something new. After all games like Halo, MGS4, and Fallout show us that putting out a succesful game in either exclusive or multiplat next-gen format is not something that won't bring back revenue. I think it could go either damn way. its pretty damn pointless anyway because the decision of the platform will be made based on FFXIII and FFXIII VS. sale numbers, because Tetsuya Nomura is gonna manage this game, and he won't manage it until after FF VS. If those two games sell well and respectably they may be able to convince Disney that its worth a "next-gen" treatment, if they tank they will hash out a gimmicky wii version that will most likely not satisfy as a compelling conclusion for the series.
