Why Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+ Won't Come To America

[Omegas Squared]

the reason is quite simple. The voice actor for Sora has matured too much and cannot voice sora in re:chain of memories. In order for it to come they would have to: use computer editing to change his voice, have him try to change his voice(disastrous results), or hire a new voice actor.

lol then they could have just made KH2FM come to american and not RE:COM so I dont think thats the case.

 

[Pelafina]

Yes, we know.

You posted this already.

It's not that Sora's American voice actor got older, it's just that the all versions of Kingdom Hearts II had more features than the Japanese version did. Sora's voice actor is only 20. There are people in their 80s who do voice acting (*coughChristopherLeecough*). Haley Joel Osment voiced Sora in the KH2: FM+. Miyu Irino, the man who voiced Sora in the Japanese versions of the KH series, voiced Sora in Re:CoM and he is the same age as Haley Joel Osment.

And why did you double-thread?

Uh, not really. If SE really wanted to, they could have gotten another VA. Their reasons for not releasing it here, are, well...dig around. I've posted about the subject several times. -__- Way too many to be honest.

Why did you make two threads?
Also I think he could do the voice since it was in KH2, with the flashbacks

I hate all the threads like this there are just too many of them, it gets boring after a while.

Actually that's incorrect. You're thinking of KH1, wherein the US release had 4 extra bosses, 2 keyblades, etc. added to our version of the game

However, when KH2 rolled around the versions were almost identical, save for a few things working on the JPN copy's favor. For one, the US version was censored in several points in the game, nothing too bad, but still. And secondly, not a lot of people seem to know this, Nomura actually had Hand-Written notes on almost every page of the Jiminy Journal in the Japanese version of KH2, that were a quirky feature supposed to have been Sora's handwritten 'edits' to Jiminy's notebook with his own comments and thoughts about whatever the page was talking about. This was completely removed from the US version of the game, possibly because they didn't want to go through the trouble of trying to mimic the handwriting?

that seriously made me lol! there are way too many threads of this subject

 

[soraworldseen]

Well, first off there are way too many of these posts. Secondly, SE can do what they want to do, when they want to do it. If they wanted to get a different voice actor, they could've. Look as Aerith...although that's a bad example....but still. They just didn't see the need at the time. But you never know, they might still release it, when the Kh series is over.......

If by hopeful you mean wish for something that will never happen, no.

Also, few people here "hate" FM+. Being realistic=/hate.

Because it is a completely vain hope.

KHFM+ is not coming to the US, there's no reason to be hopeful about it.
