They'll probably say
Winter 2012 or something like that

The game is more than halfway done and the last interview hinted at an early 2012 release.

 

[Jesus]

January is in Winter
:3

Because it's in Japan...

 

[Forsaken Shadow]

dude what if ddd has that boxart that when you look at it at different angles it changes from sora to riku so it looks 3D

Ahh, you mean a hologram, that would actually be kind of epic xD One of my Harry Potter DVDs has one that switches from Harry and Dumbledore to Draco and Snape. /offtopic

"Darkness becomes light, darkness falls."

I could interpret this in so many ways, but I choose not to, at least not until TGS ._.'

By when do you guys expect the trailer to show up online, by the way? Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I'm wasn't a part of the TGS/E3 hype until recently (which is strange because I've been a KH fan for a pretty long time now).

Given the fact that it is going to be playable, I think it's very likely it will show up soon after being shown for the first time. Then again, we all know how Square loves their closed theaters.

SE has expressed in the past that they'd like to get the trailers up as quickly as possible, and they've been pretty true to their word if that event in February is anything to go by.

 

[Oracle Spockanort]

Also, didn't Nomura say he wanted to get the trailer out as soon as possible? While I doubt the trailer will be leaked by a cam, I can see the trailer being up online by SE in a matter of hours after the first showing.

 

[Zen]

Sshhh, that was just my skepticism at work.

But yeah, I doubt a trailer won't be uploaded online.

 

[Luap]

Any new news on the 80 person showcase?

None.
But, now that we know that the Demo will be on the showfloor and not behind the closed doors of the showcase... I wonder if the showcase is just a trailer or if there will be anything else in it. A glimpse at 10th Anniversary stuff, maybe?

Do you think they will announce a JP release date? Just wondering.. =/

It's possible... but doubtful.
Nomura does want it out early next year, so who knows. I think that'll be either at Jump Festa or at the SE Conference (they do one every year, right, or was the one this year in January a one time thing?).
Also, the release date should be International, or very close to each region, since localization is being done simultaneously.

Can someone please link me to some concrete evidence of this? I keep seeing people say this everywhere, and I think it's absolutely ridiculous, and back when i saw the interview with the hint from nomura, it was very subtle, and very wrongly interpreted. This idea that it is being localized at the same time doesn't really make any sense, as SE have NEVER done this in the past.

 

[whodeany]

Very cool, getting excited for this. Will give me an excuse to buy a 3DS... eventually.

There doing it with FFXIII-2.

 

[destiny seeker]

Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG I can't wait. I want to see that trailer.

KHII was playable at E3 2005 in the Underworld, against Hades up untill the battle against Cerberus, & the fight against the dragon in Land of Dragons. With English cutscenes and voices, more than half a year before the JP release.

Also Jesse Mcartney was out pretty quickly to announce he had recorded for BBS, again before the JP release.

So yes, SE has done localization work alongside JP version before.
