We want to reward people who manage to post Kingdom Hearts news on the forum before we do, and also encourage even more people to find and post news. So, we're announcing an awards system: If you post news before us, you'll get a shiny gold star on your profile!

 

Hints for posting news

Kingdom Hearts news appears in many places, and you need to check regularly if you want to be the first to post something! We'll give you some links where news often appears, but remember, there are many other places to look. This is just a small selection! Make sure that you click any links that are posted on these sites, and watch out for anything KH-related.

Special

http://toro.2ch.net/handygrpg/ - *News REGULARLY appears here. Make sure you check this one a lot.* This is a bit tricky, so I'll explain. Make sure you're using Chrome, and have the page set to automatically translate. It'll come up with a list of games, and you'll want to pick one that's like "[3DS] Part ## Kingdom Hearts 3D" (【3DS】キングダムハーツ 3D Part##). These fill up after 1000 posts, and a new part begins, which is why we need to access it from the list of pages. Also, if you click it and it doesn't bring up all of the posts, please click "all latest".

Have fun participating, and helping out the community! Hopefully your name will get on the list one day -- or maybe even two or three times! Feel free to post below and discuss this, and let us know if you'll be watching out for news. Any questions? Feel free to ask!

thats really nice

Aww, that's sweet! Horray for teamwork!

If I could, I'd totally help out day and night. It'd be much easier if I knew Japanese though.

Google Translate + set it to always translate Japanese by default. Helps so much. But really, 90% of the time, the "news" will be a link to somewhere... and that news will be something obvious when you see it, like a magazine scan or a website update. You rarely need to actually know Japanese to find news.

so it can be anything new thats kingdom hearts releted like for example a release date or who will be voiceing who in the english version or a new world and such

I recall me putting up news about Birth by Sleep's ESRB rating before it was uploaded to the homepage.

Awesome! Well i started a topic that kh3d is the most appealing game of the year . Does that count?

Where's my reward for dropping the news on the musketeer-world?

What happened to your "Oishii Translating Powers Activate"

 

That goes with everyone. If you think you've found KH news but can't read the Japanese, feel free to contact me and I can tell you what it says. Only KH news, though. I won't be buying someone coming to me saying, "I think this anime episode mentions Kingdom Hearts. Can you translate it for me?"

It's pretty easy to recognize the names of stuff in Japanese.

How do you guys always find news so quickly? It seems like whenever new KH info is announced, it's on KH13 almost immediately!

Yes, I'll add your star right away.

Erm, just clicked on some of the links and thought you might wanna know that the English KH Twitter link doesn't work now 'cause it's this: http://twitter.com/#...!/KINGDOMHEARTS since they changed the name.

Edit: Oh and http://eu.square-enix.com/en/blogs doesn't seem to work either. ^^;

Yeah, they changed their Twitter ID. Previously KHU were using KINGDOMHEARTS. But they managed to change it.

 

Square Enix Europe Members merged with Square Enix Europe like with North America's.

 

DChiuch said he'll fix it soon.
