Per announcement at the Nintendo live streaming, Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance demo is available now on the eShop for US. It's 746 blocks in size and has a limit of 30 uses.

Took me a few tries, due to possibly server traffic, but I got mine! Can't wait to play it.

Edit: Finished the demo a while ago, VERY short, but it seems I managed to run right into the demo boss pretty quickly. There may be more exploration that I missed. I can't stand Sora's voice, and the interactions with Neku seems rushed. Hope that's just the case with the demo being possibly shortened. The freerunning stuff was kind of confusing to control at first, but I managed to finally get used to it mid boss battle. At which time, it was pretty fun. Game looks and plays amazing. Camera is a bit hard to control with shoulder buttons though, but it was only an issue in tight corners. Was also hard to pinpoint the boss at times, though it may just need time to get accustom to. Can't wait to mess with customization and whatnot as it seems it borrows a lot from BBSs system.

Well that was very short but very enjoyable. I am digging both flow motion and reality shift (I think that's what it was called). I'm glad they're using the command system of Birth By Sleep/Coded. It's by far my favourite battle system.

The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the incredibly cutesy enemies, but it's by no means a deal breaker.

I'm definitely looking forward to this game now.

I don't know whether to get it or not...it's not spoiler-ish is it? Because I haven't been watching any trailers or anything. I don't want to be spoiled Smile

It didn't seem like it to me and I'm in the same boat as you avoiding videos. It had a short segment where Sora is trying to figure out where Riku went, then runs into a The World Ends With You character (avoiding name in case that's a spoiler for you) who mumbles a short summary of The Game (from TWEWY). After that it's pretty much just exploring and a boss.

Man that was a short demo! I spent three hours with 13-2's demo! I liked the music for Traverse Town and it looked amazing in 3D! I think I'll have to get used to gameplay but it seems pretty simple and easy after you play around with it Smile I actually like the colorful Dream Eaters. They're really cute Smile It looks good, can't wait!

Even though it was a short Demo, I managed to stretch some extra time out of it by re-entering the previous area to make the enemies respawn again, I love the Freeflow system, did anyone else feel like Sora was using high-level abilities or what? Like the Superglide? o.O

I'm just saying...usually his abilities are back to square one...but guess it's nothing to worry about, I mean after all...Who needs glide when you've got FREEFLOW?!?!?! ^_^ XD
