Famitsu has a new Tetsuya Nomura interview in their latest issue. He discusses the upcoming DKE3713 event along with some interesting information regarding the Kingdom Hearts Series..

INTERVIEW SUMMARY
Nomura believes that the Kingdom Hearts series has "succeeded the blood" of the Final Fantasy series. It has used the spirit of action, RPG, shooting, and other elements combined. The reason for this is that the story for Kingdom Hearts is a continuation of the same person for a long time, which is different for the Final Fantasy series.
In addition, Nomura commented on gaming platforms when asked in regards to the Kingdom Hearts series. He believes it doesn't matter for the hardware, as long as it has a refreshing feel for the series.
