For me, it all hinges on backward compatibility.  Whoever implements it the best has my bucks.

I'm with you.  The white rectangle looks fugly.  Of course, I think the console itself looks retarded af, too.

Nomura, Kitase...?

“...with Zach having survived the Shinra ambush. Is that fair?”

I seem to recall fighting that same boss early on in KH1.

Episode 2 TBA, most likely PS5. Episode 3 most likely one of the last games for PS5. Full compilation for $99 - PS5 exclusive in 2029!
