Early morning news is always the hardest for me, I'm so tired!

[Monkey Edit] Thanks to Tomo from KHN for the following info:

Nomura: The announcement of the new KH project might be announced soon. I think that we can expect the title to be announced in the "hidden-ball play".

Tomo Notes: Hidden-ball play" is a term from baseball in which, a fielder has the ball and hides it from the runner, tricking the runner to think another fielder has the ball or the ball went out of their reach. Once the runner reaches the base, the fielder instantly takes out the ball and outs the runner. In relation to Nomura, he's basically hiding the title behind his back and is waiting to release it to us.

Thanks to FF13 Videos, we have some new tidbits on the Next Kingdom Hearts Project, I tried my best to get what I could out of it, unfortuntly, I don't know Japanese very well at all. Hopefully we can get a fuller translation later.

-This "new project" is not Kingdom Hearts 3, rather it is "outside" work. (Meaning, it is more then likely a sidestory?)
-There is still a lot left to tell about Sora's Story, but Nomura wants to draw more towards other characters with this game. This could mean Sora has a lesser role in this game.
-There will be a focus on "Birth By Sleep", as well as Mickey and what was happening while he was in the world of darkness, as well as his keyblade. Nomura also wants to focus on Roxas the most. There are apparently a lot of interesting things left about him.
-This game will be a little different from the Kingdom Hearts Series, with slightly different gameplay as well. As for the system, he is considering portable systems. (Options: PSP, NDS, and Mobile Phones).
