The latest entry in the Kingdom Hearts series, Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, dropped nearly a quarter of a million units on its competitors in Week 13 of the 2012 Japanese software sales charts.
It was more than enough to win the week.
While very flawed, DDD highlights why the series works as well as it does. Between a willingness to innovate and consistently strong character writing, Kingdom Hearts is never boring. The plot can derail itself off the tracks completely, but there’s still substance within the main cast.
Gameplay can be unrecognizable from title to title, but that’s exactly what keeps each entry worth revisiting. DDD is better than just another KH title. It has a strong identity and knows exactly what kind of game it is, for better or worse.
Dream Drop Distance didn’t have to derail Kingdom Hearts as hard as it did, but doing resulted in an unforgettable experience– a bridge to Kingdom Hearts III that’s as essential as it is eclectic.
As the decade ends, let’s look back at many of the biggest moments in the Kingdom Hearts series. From games to merchandise, there was something for every Kingdom Hearts fan to enjoy.
Nintendo has remained the king of handheld gaming since the release of the Gameboy. With the 3DS slowly dying and the Nintendo Switch selling huge perhaps it's time to port some the 3DS games to the Switch. Here are 5 Nintendo 3DS games that deserve to be ported to the Nintendo Switch.
Although not 3DS games, I would like to see the Golden Sun games and Chrono Trigger be released on the Switch.
Great News, hopefully they can get this across to europe quickly!
You know there're people actually "out there", calling it bomba? xD
I wonder if this will be the last KH game before KH3, or will this one just lead to a Vita game?. I expect the latter.
the japs keep buying these spinoffs. If they sell, Square will keep making them. Boycott it so they can make KH3!!! They think we like this stuff.
I cant wait to play kingdom hearts in 3d, the 3d is easily becoming my favorite feature of the 3ds. Much rather have 3d than just more power.
This easily looks like the best KH yet (and bbs was damn good). Im playing recoded to hold me over until i get my hands on this.
