In a recent scan of Famitsu PSP+PS3, Nomura drops a few details about designing the Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days Special Edition DSi system. You can find the scan, and the translated article below.
The Nintendo DS title Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is set to release May 30th. The special edition Nintendo DSi with the unique design will also be released then. It has a chic design where icons symbolizing the game are arranged in the shape of a monogram on the DSi's top.The finished design is both appealing and adult-like, it doesn't really look like a game console at all.
Tetsuya Nomura's Comment
――Did you do the main design?
Nomura: Yes. I was often being asked, "Will you design it for girls?", but inevitably I designed it myself. The special characteristics of Kingdom Hearts titles were top priority, though of course staying conscious of the female fans, details like the main DSi body were made chic so that boys and adults wouldn't feel out of place with it. I think since the rare monogram designs of the game are seen as fashionable, not only girls but guys will also want it.
