[Kidror 18]

Aaron there was no recording allowed. So Square Enix will have to post something and that'll be after the event has gone through its five runnings.

[Exodaze 491]

I'm thinking the only vid we'll get is the teaser. lol

[Kidror 18]

Yeah. Too bad we didn't get confirmation for anything I still think a remaster of kh1 would've been nice but I wasn't really expecting it.

[Rob 5,571]

I like Sora and all, but I don't like him that much so that I'd want to see his nuts.

[TheKingdomkid 1,194]

i saw some of the pictures that gamer had they were nice, jezz i want that Keyblade, and also this is a nice event and all, but will they do something like that over here, proabably not and if they do it will probably most likely be at New York or somewhere like that, oh well, still would be nice if we at lest get something like this over here

[Col.Random 3,683]

Japan, Y U MAKE ME JEALOUS?

[syrupforthejester 14]

Japan, I don't know what I did to make you hate me so much as to torture me so

 

[replika13 455]

will there be new trailer or something?

[TheBucket2 114]

So...did anything really...happen? I mean they had some neat stuff, but...nothing really.......new? They don't seem to have anything for the people who WEREN'T there. No trailer or any sort of announcement. Just a statue, and projected images of renders.

 

Overall, I'm yet again underwhelmed by an event for KH. For the 10th of FFVII, they made a scale model of all of Midgar, a real Buster Sword, and the announcement of Advent Children. We got a statue and renders. Neat...?

[A mystery 346]

I wish I could have gone ,it looks like a beautiful dream.

[HydratedTadpole 4]

I sleep for 9 hours to find nothing new, damn I wished they would allow recording then we could of had a live stream.

Something i found in khinsider with info on the event

 

 

 

Thanks to our friends over at KHDestiny and one of their members by the name of VenVen, who was lucky enough to attend the premiere event for KH3D, we now have a rather extensive impression of the entire event, as well as the videos displayed!

 

After the many photos on the web, we offer a complete summary of the 10th Anniversary Kingdom Hearts 3D Premiere Event. VenVen, a member of our community, has indeed had the great privilege to get to the event and sharing his impressions with us! A big thank you to him!

"I had a great day at Kingdom Hearts Premiere Event.

This day devoted to the new Kingdom Hearts on 3DS, but also 10 years of the series was held in Odaiba. When I heard that, I was already very satisfied puisqu'Odaiba, the artificial island in Tokyo Bay, is one of my favorite places in the Japanese capital. It is an island featuring tunes resorts hosting one of the most futuristic architecture and landmarks such as the Tokyo Big Sight or Sega Joypolis. Nothing but the train line that is leading, most scenic and run on rails in height slaloming between the buildings, is an attraction by itself.

But back in Kingdom Hearts. The event was held at the Venus Fort shopping center designed as an Italian city. The place itself is gorgeous, with a beautiful fountain and magnificent architecture. Held there in prime time in the Winter Illuminations, plunging the center in a magical atmosphere, but the pictures make it more difficult.

The event was not easy to find. Not really said, I had to move randomly in the huge mall before seeing, not without great excitement, the famous statue of Sora, Mickey, Donald and Goofy, who had already been used at Disneyland Tokyo. It's been a while since I was looking for information on the current location of this statue so you can see it, so I literally ran up to her to see it.

So I blithely strafed like all Japanese at 100m around, before I look at my surroundings. Before me stood all the posters advertising the different Kingdom Hearts games, and a TV broadcast images of each game, as well as videos on Dream Drop Distance. Everything was grouped in a fairly narrow scope of the center hallway leading to the stage where the main event would take place.

I then struggled to understand how it worked for a place. The Japanese still speaking little English, and I always as bad Japanese, I had to cope virtually alone. Luckily, I managed to find the line that led to divine ticket granting you a place for the main stage. It was a miracle, we can say, as the queue was incredibly located near the scene of the event, and especially it was not mentioned at all. I was ass enough to hear lined with a Japanese noodle ask the staff of the center where he was to date info on severe obtain a ticket, which allowed me to follow. Without that, I'd probably miss the event. Thank you, anonymous Japanese lost.

It was roughly 14h when I got back in the queue, which was not very big: a little less than fifty people in front of me. The first session began half an hour, so I thought to queue for the second. Patient, I pulled out my 3DS to play a little to 358/2 Days, just to stay in the theme of the day. Barely time to do a mission that the tail was already advancing. So I could get my ticket, announcing the number 47. I was amazed by against I had to get a place for the session is the last ... 5:30 p.m.! Good god it's not gone away! I admit I was naive enough at the time.

So here I am with 3 hours to wait! No problem seeing how the Venus Fort is great. And I also noticed the train coming they had installed a gundam GEANT to a neighboring building.

3 hours later, after a little shopping and sightseeing, I headed for the place indicated by the ticket. Wholesale tourist, I showed up right on time required, while others elected were all brought back before long. I have been allowed to queue up like a big VIP to my place, the 47. You should know that this file was in a stairwell, about 200 meters from the main stage. Therefore, once the received signal, the whole line began to be advanced in the center next to the stage. It was very strange, one would really say a procession heading to the Messiah, probably represented by the famous giant statue of Sora. Despite being the 47th person to return, I could get a good seat in the house thanks to the large width of the stage, and especially with my size, always useful in a variety of Japanese. I actually had some rot session behind me and I am so sorry. Here, we are fellows with the new wait Dearly Beloved. The atmosphere is laid.

Suddenly, a "Mamonaku! Evento sutaruto desu! "(Warning, the event begins!) Sounds in the room, and the impressive scene of a church glows with the colors of the classic symbols of the series: heart, crowns, keyblades, heads of Mickey ...

 

A presenter dressed in the clothes sold in Kingdom Hearts Square Enix Shop in Tokyo then appears on the scene. Unfortunately, because of its micro and very high flow of words, I have not been able to understand much about the speech she gave in 5 minutes. I still grasped it explained the synopsis of DDD and had the game

Following this, she called to him Shinji Hashimoto, vice president and producer at Square Enix. One, very comfortable on stage, do not hesitate to call the crowd, ask questions and make jokes.

 

He quickly announced that the video, the main attraction of the event, will now be released, and he and presenter withdraws from the scene.

The video is broadcast in two parts. One half is on the ceiling, and one on the facade of the church. For the most part, these are the same images as the trailer for the Jump Festa. Also note that the video is short, I would say 2 minutes. The beginning of the video is a frieze with vertical scrolling cover art for each game and their release dates. Then begins a rapid sequence of pictures in the series, again with some new pictures.

But few new images will bring the cheering crowd and make me vibrate. Already, we see a HD remake of one of the many famous scenes from 358/2 Days, with Roxas, Axel and Xion eating an ice on the roof of the Twilight Town train station, snatching a few cries impressed the crowd. The same will happen for the stage while representing the kinematics of KH2 final fight, between Riku and Sora to Xenmas.

Following is a presentation of DDD, with images of new worlds in particular, but it's very very short. And already we arrive at the central point of the video, and the main interest of this event.

 

Begins a scene where Sora and Riku finds himself in what appears to be the Necropolis Keyblade. Xehanort is facing them. Sora's Keyblade then activates and unlocks a lock. Mickey appears, carrying a large spellbook. Gradually, as he leafed through, standing out of the pages to finally reveal ... Roxas, Aqua, Terra and Ven! Good and as Donald and Goofy. The nine are all together when faced with Xehanort, and the picture ended up on what appears to be a big combined attack. This last point remains to be confirmed, it was quick.

 

Note that Sora and Riku are their clothes DDD in this scene, leaving much to assume that this scene takes place in the game This is too much for the crowd that goes wild since the beginning of this scene. In the end, it was a real sound and light show projected onto the facade of the church, made for a really impressive.

But already the video ends. Hashimoto's announcement, it seems to me, it will be the opening movie of DDD.

Following the event will be reserved to Square Enix Members with special tickets. These tickets granted them the right to sit up front on chairs. But also to wield a keyblade size! Indeed, Hashimoto soon to exhibit the precious artefact and shake under the nose of the crowd.

The result will be a bit long sequence where each SE Members try the Keyblade, acting as a giant wiimote on the facade of the church, prompting streaks of light in its path when the privileged agitated. Background to the effigy of a series of games appeared randomly for each person, and a photo was taken with the projection of the person alongside figures in the background. A very very nice souvenir for elected officials.

 

These lucky will also be entitled to another privilege in the wake, suddenly appear as dozens of Dream Eater on the facade of the church. This time it's a giant EyeToy device that will allow members to touch and move the Dream Eater on the facade of the church. The experience must have been impressive.

On this last animation that the event ends. Each person then spring the main stage, recovering in passing its collector card bearing the image of DDD.

In conclusion: a very short event, and not as grand as could be expected with the video preparation. Finally, there was that video games and posters at the entrance of the hall ... The giant statue is a bit level and gives visibility to the event.

 

Despite the fact that in the end there was not much to be put on the tooth, I think I speak on behalf of all the fans in attendance by saying that the scene where Roxas, Terra, Aqua and Ven appear alongside Sora Riku and have enough to make this magical day. So many emotions!

The best being that in 26 days, the game will be available, as well as its console collector and his special box. Definitely one month under the banner of Kingdom Hearts. "

I only care about this but the Keyblade Wielding must have been Aaaawweeeesssooooommmmeeeee

Still if the opening movie only has that (A few images and clips of video we've seen in the previous trailer) plus that AWESOME ENDING SCENE JOIHSDIBKGVFCDFVBGHNJKL: I'll still be quite disappointed.

[Nikolasvanitas 358]

Confirmed: Intro uses Hikari Orchestral

I wish the quality was a bit better, but I guess i get the main idea of the intro. Too bad they still didn't show the whole thing and recycled from other trailers.

I didn't really see the part with the scene from Days, though.

That Mickey animation... SO SMOOTH.
