Hi guys!

This post is about the North American release of Re: Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories!

Re: Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories (or Re:CoM for short) is a PlayStation 2 remake of Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories that was originally released for the GBA (Game Boy Advance). Square Enix only released Re: CoM in Japan, but on December 2, they are releasing the English version!

Since it was only out in Japan, I can’t really give it a full review, so I can only review some of the stuff I know about it. Re: CoM is a card game, so you will have to select cards to use so you can attack. Different cards are more powerful than others and in the corner of the card it shows you it’s level.

In this game you can play as Sora or Riku, and both of them have separate stories to play. The graphics for this game are really good. This was the second Kingdom Hearts game to be made, but it is not called Kingdom Hearts 2. Kingdom Hearts 2 had a Japanese release of I think December 2005 and was released in North America and Europe some time in 2006.

In Japan, Re:CoM was released with Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix. Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix is still Kingdom Hearts 2, but with a lot of bonus content. In Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix, when you are in The World That Never Was, you actually get to fight Roxas instead of just watching a cut scene where Sora fights him. You also get to fight these things called Mushroom XIII (XIII is Roman numerals for 13), and if you defeat all of them you get a keyblade but I don’t know what it is called.

I got this game for Christmas so I now have a little more info about it. When you advance another floor in the castle, you have a world card and you get to decide which world you want to go to first. This game is actually a lot harder than it sounds because the card fighting system can be a bit difficult at times, especially when you might need it the most. Once you use all of your cards you have to recharge them by holding down a button. Every time you use up all of your cards, it will take longer to recharge them.

The levels are also really hard in this game like Monstro and Wonderland(Wonderland is a lot harder because at one point you have to fight these cards that the queen summons and they are really powerful). I am actually stuck on Wonderland because of that too. From what I have played of this game I would say it actually isn’t as good as I hoped it to be. I am giving this game a 6/10.

Hi, it’s Daniel!

I have a really big announcement for all Nintendo fans- a new Nintendo DS! I searched Nintendo on Google and I saw a page about a new Nintendo DS. I read it and it was really interesting. It is called the Nintendo DSi.

The Nintendo DSi is a lot different then the Nintendo DS lite. The GBA (Game Boy Advance) slot is removed, so you can’t play GBA games on the DSi. It is compatible with the Wii, and is thinner than a DS lite. The speakers are also higher quality than the DS lite too. It still has two screens, but I’m not sure if they are any bigger than the DS lite’s screens.

I’m pretty sure the graphics are much better and the games will be longer and some of the mini games look really fun. But, the release date for North America is unknown. For Japan, I think the release date is November 1st, 2008.

Take a look at this short video about the DSi.
