Hey everyone! Good stuff today. TheWertle has scanned conceptual art from the Kingdom Hearts Ultimania Book, of Xemnas and the Final Boss. It is very interesting seeing just exactly what Nomura's first ideas were with these characters! Click the thumbnails below to view! Also, a small note, Zexion's element is "Illusion". Very interesting...

< Some other news. Square-Enix has trademarked (a form of copyrighting), the name The Last Remnant in North America. This could be anything from a new game (maybe announced at the Square-Enix Party), to a subtitle of a game heading to North America. Maybe it has something to do with Kingdom Hearts? More then likely not, but it's always a possibility!

Square Enix says that the leap to the latest generation of gaming platforms has dramatically altered the way the market works.

"Up to PlayStation 2, all consoles had roughly the same concept of how to enjoy the gaming experience. With next-gen, each has different features and is targeted at a different audience," vice president of software development Hiromichi Tanaka told GamesIndustry.biz.

"So, we have to make different titles for different platforms, depending on what sort of game we want to make and what the users will be expecting; we can choose which platform we want to go for."

"This is completely different from the old games industry," he added.

"Also we now have [Windows] Vista and the Nintendo DS, so it's not only those three next-gen platforms but a whole variety of different platforms. It's hard having this variety but it also gives us lots of opportunities."
