Smash Bros. and Kingdom Hearts are kindred spirits; people obsess over KH world selection as much as they do Smash newcomers. Sakurai confirmed the only reason Corrin was included as a DLC character was essentially so the character could be a walking advertisement, in a game already oversaturated with Fire Emblem reps.I just can’t help but wonder what worlds would have actually been chosen if Disney wasn’t involved and making suggestions (eg. Big Hero 6). Fan requested worlds have made it into KH before (Hunchback) but these modern films, as much as I enjoyed the movies barring Frozen, tell me that Disney told Square Enix to include these worlds. These are also Disney properties that have sequels coming (Frozen 2, Toy Story 4), or are continuing on in a television series (Big Hero 6: The Series, Tangled: The Series, Monsters Inc will have a television series on Disney’s online streaming service) which makes KH3’s world selection feel a bit like ‘free’ advertising for upcoming and existing Disney properties.
