Kingdom Hearts: Recoded​

Spoiler: Warning! Read before post!

I know there are other topics, but this one contains information and pictures.

What's this?
Kingdom Hearts Recoded is a mix up off the Mobile Phone game Kingdom Hearts Coded. The MP game looked like this:



I hope that the NDS version will have better graphics.

Story

Spoiler: WARNING! THIS CONTAINS THE ENDING! READ AT OWN RISK!

The game takes place after the events of Kingdom Hearts II and follows the story of Jiminy Cricket, King Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy in Disney Castle. While organizing the records in Jiminy's journal from his travels with Sora and his friends, Jiminy Cricket's curiosity about the line "thank Naminé" results in him finding a message that he did not write: "We must return to free them from their torment." To investigate this message, King Mickey digitizes the contents of the journal and goes into the simulated world to investigate; awakening a virtual Sora on the virtual Destiny Islands to carry out the contents of the journal to uncover the identity of "them".
As Data Sora awakens on Destiny Islands, he encounters numerous "bugs", which take the form of red and black blocks, covering the whole world. Upon eliminating the Heartless and destroying the bugs, Sora traverses to other worlds infected with bugs to return them to normal, following a mysterious cloaked figure upon orders from King Mickey.
Meanwhile, Heartless begin appearing within Disney Castle, and everyone finds themselves trapped in the room. To their surprise, they are saved by Data Sora. Suddenly, the cloaked figure reveals himself to be Jiminy's Journal taking the form of Riku, and explains that they are no longer in the real world, but the data world. Sora is sent off by the Journal to discover his true identity, only to encounter Maleficent and Pete from the real world. Maleficent destroys Data Sora's Keyblade and summons Heartless to attack him. Mickey and the Journal arrive to save Sora, but the Journal is abducted by Maleficent, with Mickey giving chase. Sora makes his way through Hollow Bastion, aided by Donald and Goofy. They encounter Pete, who summons the Journal and takes control of him with the bugs to fight them, but Sora still manages to defeat the Journal, who falls unconscious.
Mickey arrives and informs Sora that unless the bugs are destroyed, the Journal will never awaken. Sora decides to find a way to awaken the Journal, and enters Riku's data world, losing his abilities in the process. The two visit various worlds from the Data Riku's memory and find their way back to Hollow Bastion, where they fight and defeat Maleficent. Meanwhile, King Mickey discovers that he will be returning soon to the real world, but the Journal, once completed, will have to be erased, which will mean the end of Data Sora's memories. When the time comes, Sora requests more time in order to save Pete and Maleficent, who are still in the data world. Sora finds them fighting Sora's Heartless, but Pete and Maleficent are erased before he can intervene. Sora defeats Sora's Heartless, the cause of the bugs, and Mickey returns to the real world, erasing the Journal. A new message appears claiming that a new door to a new world has been opened, which is the data of the data world added into the Journal. Mickey, realizing that this quest may be too dangerous for Data Sora as he has no memory of it, requests to be taken into the Data World once again.
Finding Data Sora in Traverse Town, Mickey takes him to Castle Oblivion where Data Sora is confronted by a young man wearing a black coat. He tells Sora that if he wants to know the truth, he must move forward on his own through the previous worlds he visited destroying bugs. During this time, he realizes that even if he doesn't remember someone he's met, there's still the sadness of having forgotten them which the figure attempts to warn not to let it consume him. Sora disregards this message and fights the figure, revealed to be Roxas. After losing to Sora, Roxas gives him a card as Mickey appears. Sora opens the next door to find Naminé, who reveals the bugs to have been an unintentional side effect of her attempt to restore Sora's memories. She then reveals Sora's nature as the "Key that connects everything" through his ties with herself, Roxas, Xion, and Axel. Furthermore, Naminé tells Data Sora about three figures also tied to Sora's heart who are the ones referred to in the message and need his help. Mickey bids farewell to the Data Sora and promises Naminé that he will inform the real Sora of this.
In the final scene, Mickey sends Sora a bottled letter, which Sora reads with Riku and Kairi.

Characters


Just like other Kingdom Hearts games, Recoded will contain Disney Characters, including King Mickey, Donald Duck, Goofy, Jiminy Cricket and the Heartless. The data Sora is in the original Sora's attire from the first game because he is created from data from Jiminy's earlier journal entries. The characters referred to as "them" in the message left in Jiminy's journal refers to the main protagonists of Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep. The game will also contain several enemies from Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days.

They better add more or change it a bit from the cellphone game to make it a justifiable release.

Oh what the hell, it'll be available here anyway. Inevitably gonna have AP.

 

has anyone played the phone release?

Was it any good.

 

I heard it's going to be an action RPG remake,but that's just a rumor so who knows?
Hope they make a great overhaul because it looks boring from videos.Maybe something like re chain?
A small request Kiekoes,can you please put the story in a spoiler?You know since it tells the ending too.

 

Looks interesting but I think the disney stuffs in KH are getting kinda repetitive, boring and predictable. I think they should have used only original characters since the non-disney realated story line and characters are pretty dang good and the gameplay is my favorite, action rpg but in KH, it's pretty much mashing the X and/or triangle button. Anyway, look forward to this as 358/2 days has one of the most fun battles(not repetitive and boring) of all KH. Hope the gameplay is better or just as good. =P

 

I'm one of those horrible people that thinks that KH would be a million times better without the Disney characters. I didn't like the PS2 games because the fighting mechanics were terrible IMO (KH: 2 was just pressing a single button over and over whist keeping the analogue stick pointed at the nearest enemy and occasionally pressing triangle). The things I hated most were the embarrassing Disney characters and the general voice acting.
I enjoyed the last DS KH game because it centered around a group of people that weren't Disney imbeciles or nasal American brats (debatable, but I think that Roxas's voice actor isn't bad at all. Especially compared to that damned Osment guy that voices Sora). I also thought that the fighting and weapon upgrading systems were pretty ace and the graphics were slick for a DS game.

I'm disappointed that Sora,his mincing stalker and Donald are back, maybe they'll do the decent thing and not add the voices that the phone version was missing. Or maybe it'll feature the female member of Organisation: XIII and her beutifully sexy voice

 

I wonder if They will make Donald and Goofy your partners again , will it be that you are going to be alone like in Chain of Memories or 358/2 days(most of the time). I really missed having companions because it made it more fun and a bit easier. Regarding the AP I'm hoping for a simple hex edit fix like 358/2 days.

 

There's going to be worse AP
I'm guessing it may take around 2 weeks to get to work on all cards.
But that's my guess.
Could only take 3 days.

 

Roxas voice acting was obviously good cause if I'm not mistaken, it was done by the singer Jesse McCartney. And the biggest thing ruining 358/2 days is when Xion's face looks like Sora's. It ruined the atmosphere for me -.-

 

The thing that was stupid in 358/2 days was when Roxas said

Spoiler

To Xion, "Who am I going to have Ice-cream with". That was really stupid

 

LOLOLOL

I LAUGHED SO HARD AT THIS! XD

 

Well it was really stupid.

 

But then again, whadaya expect him to say? Well, ok maybe the word ice cream and the way he said was..........spoiling the moment xD it's like laughing and crying at the same time xD but for me, days was the best KH game in the series by a mile. It would've been by a landslide if it weren't for the PS2 being more powerful than the DS.

 

Well I really didn't like using the panel system.
It was annoying.
I like the other Kingdom Hearts games better.

 

Well its better than the cards system of Chain of memories, i found it a hassle when during boss fights, but still fun. Panel System was better than that.

 

Yea, the panel system was kinda annoying but the battles needed a bit of erm, skill and strategy while KH 1 and 2 were mindlessly mashing the X button and in KH 2, the triangle button as well. Ah, nevermind, I'll just keep waiting for Luminous Arc 3, Super Robot Taisen OG Saga Endless Frontier and Golden Sun DS =P

 

I'm guessing sometimes it could get really annoying.

Well I guess KH2 was pretty much bashing X
KH1 took skill and strategy

I also can't wait for Luminous Arc 3 and Golden Sun

 

KH1 didn't took that much skill though. The only battles where it took some strategy was Riku(Ansem possessed) but if you've played other action rpgs then you'll find a simple hit and run tactic would suffice. But KH was still pretty fun since it was the first in the series so you can easily look past the flaws. I have to say though, KH2 did have something good, the organization XIII is a damn well made cast of characters and the only thing keeping me playing KH 2. And, oh yea, Kairi was also good on the eye *winks* =P especially in that school uniform.

 

Riku (Ansem Possessed) really annoyed me.
But was really fun to fight.
Like Maleficent Dragon

KH2 would be so much better if it was like the Final Mix version.
I mean fighting all the Organization 13 and Terra.
It would of been awesome.

Anyways I Hope Re:Coded has heaps of good bosses

 

Too bad there aren't many games of the same genre. I actually like those types of games. Most other action rpgs are either linear without much rpg and exploration elements or not so flexible in movement e.g. can't jump. The only one's that I know of are Devil May Cry(hell yeah) and the Tales series(though it's a bit different, there's no question for me it is the best action rpg out there) xD
