This game deserved SO MUCH better than just having HD cutscenes...
Agreed. I never played the game but I did experience the HD cutscenes, to which afterwards-some time down the line-I decided to watch a let’s play of the game and was baffled by how many interactions between the members was cut out from the HD edition. Even little things like the text bubble interaction added so much to each of the organization members.
Mega Facts
@@forastero54321For real. They cut out everything fun, awesome, or clever. Even the final Xion fight they only thought to add in later.
They remade DDD from the 3DS. The story of 358/2 is better
Re:Coded as well.
hey ! im the other person on this project (under the name sandwichwater) , ive not done as much as vitor on this project (huge thanks to him for letting me help) but i _have_ been working on hd textures for both 2d and 3d objects in the game both importing from kh1 , 2 , recom , as well as remaking new ones from scratch , its currently very unstable but once we get it down the game will look better than ever in a true remastered fashion :D
Thank you so much for your hard efforts too! That sounds amazing!
🫡
Look sharp
Looks like my summer vacation is… beginning
thank you so much for your work on the project! look forward to seeing how it comes out!
Hell yeah! Can't wait to see the finished project!
358/2 Days continues to have my favorite story out of the entire KH franchise.
“Cheers! I’ll drink to that.”
I honestly love roxas more than sora
@@JosephJorgenson-cr6nt Same
wow really? i thought that game was good but it was REALLY BORING too
@@ZODDism It was lacking in gameplay because it was on a very limited system. The story was the only one fully written by Nomura. It was much more oriented in story instead of gameplay and was made to give an explanation of the events after Chain of Memories but before KH2.
Breathing a sigh of relief knowing that I can fight the Days bosses with right analog stick camera controls, instead of the vanilla KH1 camera.
It's actually the BEST change here if I'm being honest lmao, having a proper controller set up for the game makes a world of difference for this game
@@TheGamersJoint how do you set the controller up? i have erything installed
A remake of this game would be the perfect KH Multiplayer game
it really would, it's the best multiplayer component a KH game has had man...
Nah theyll definitely remove it like how they remove BBS's multiplayer.
@@TheGamersJoint really hoping for something like it in a newer kh title, missed opportunities for days no pun intended
They need to get rid of the walls
Tell me why I commented this on the Facebook page, and someone replied to me basically going "but it didn't have multiplayer. How would they add it? If you want multiplayer, go play KH UX"
Like, wtf reality did I wake up in where new games can't have whatever TF they want added to them? Bro completely forgot No Man's Sky & Minecraft exist, lol.
But seriously, SE really missed out not remastering this game properly. But it would really benefit from a proper remake/upgrade with multiplayer added in to that game mode where you can play as the different Organization memebers.
The most underrated game in the franchise.
Nah, that'd be Chain of Memories.
@@OhKayEl imo, both. Loved 358/2 story, and I might be mentally ill, but I loved CoM's combat system
@@GxCrEaTiioNz You're not mentally ill, you just don't mind actually using brains while playing instead of just mashing buttons.
@@GxCrEaTiioNz you my friend have much better reaction time than me 😅
Its not underrated, every one loves it
when square drops the ball, fans pick it up
and start sucking it... now it's accurate
poetry in motion in irl life
I swear, If the ps2 engine project of kh 358/2 days gets finished, I'm definitely playing that.
This also looks dope.
That's what I've always wanted and imagine it being like💆! Such a missed opportunity.
I remember seeing Vitor post about this on the KH subreddit about a month ago; he did say they're also working on getting the cutscenes from the HD movie in to replace the in-game cutscenes, so there's still more updates to come!
That’s what I was most curious on why it hadn’t been implanted already, hopeful for that version of it.
I really hope the mod creator does this for Re:Coded, it's the first ever Kingdom Hearts game I played and by far my favorite spin off
It's not the focus, but there's been some baseline Re:coded functionality built into already.
Re:Coded being your first must've been really confusing 😅
@@IcyWind14 good. It’s got some of the best gameplay.
It’s funny cus days has the best story, but meh gameplay. And then re:coded has the best gameplay but meh story.
@@ma.2089 the best gameplay between him and 358,or that is what i hope you are saying..
@@KevinNijmeijer Not really
Don’t forget about that guy who is making 358 mod on KH2 engine 🔥👌
He didn’t.
Wait what where?
@KHeartsFan-rh3vm i'd like to believe he's working on it with his team but hasn't shared many updates
multiple months without ANYTHING at all is a bit crazy
@@danjarnutowski2331 5:26
@@KHeartsFan-rh3vm thanks definitely gonna be following this project
Pretty sick! I hope more games can get treatment like this.
Oh snap! You’re here! Love your vids.
@@emptymelodies3316 Whoa! Thanks!
N64 decomp is looking great right now!
I found Vitor's Melon Mix overhaul of Melon DS last month and finally played DAYS again since the first time I played it over 15 years ago... SO thankful to team Vitor for updating Melon DS so that DAYS can be played like normal modern KH HD collection game controls now on only 1 single screen most of the time! I thought that this was exactly the huge news a channel like yours would make a vid about and you just did!
The community waited 180/2 months to play a remaster version.
14 days form now and it will turn exactly 15 years from days' original release date.
It’s funny because the over 2 in this case is our existence as the soul in between mind and body as well as the vessel we currently find ourselves in, nice catch fellow light
As someone who loves the Days story and has beaten the game, but hates the gameplay, this is already a massive improvement, and may have to be the way I play it going forward. Fantastic shoutout!
Also, yes, Re:coded is SO MUCH BETTER to play than Days!
Fr.
I feel like they managed to refine the damage output when they carried over the command system to the game from BBS.
I have a strong hate to the Panel System, i just hate it so much.
@@rogue1248 See, I like the panel system… to a degree. It’s an interesting idea, but it needs a lot of refinement. The biggest problem I have is that you have to equip your spells to it, and that they basically act as consumables instead of giving you a magic meter. There’s virtually no difference between using Cure and using a potion, and that’s just so dumb…
Also, the general movement feels like Roxas is running through water, and it just doesn’t feel great to control IMO.
Re:coded feels so much smoother and runs much faster as a whole. One great addition is that you have the option for Sora to automatically jump when he runs off the edge of a platform, just like Link in Ocarina of Time. And yeah, the command deck is a much better alternative to the panels!
I've been playing it for months, great stuff. Glad he's finally getting the recognition he deserves.
The community is so cool,they give us everything we want
Xion is my favorite KH charger hands down. One of the first gashes to make me cry, and that emotion continued through Dream Drop Distance and 3
My time has come, literally stopping everything else to play this. Is is my favorite game of all time and I am so looking forward to this. Thank you so much for sharing this
I literally last night wanted to play Days again on MelonDS but the camera controls etc was really bugging me. This is literal perfection thank you so much for bringing this to light!
Even just having controls remappable to controller inputs would go a long way toward making me more willing to revisit Days. Short of an actual remake, this is pretty much everything I ever wanted. The glow-up a game like this deserves
I really need to get to one of these people with the secret boss encounter scripts I have. Imagine each Anti-Org member in a special glitched version of a story mission, only they stop following the normal script and have some kind of outburst related to their backstories. Marluxia rants about how he needs Roxas to unlock his lost memories so he can save someone he’s forgotten. Luxord is suddenly fed up with “the game” and thinks he can use the Keyblade to “wake up” and stop playing. Xigbar rants at Ventus about how he manages to skip all the trauma and pain and age and just reset his heart and body every time he follows him to a new era. “You think you have drama at your little ‘ice cream socials’? As if.”
Saïx can have a little jealous tiff. Xaldin can spell out his envious obsession with the Beast. Just… all the things about everyone’s characters that never got time to BREATHE.
I need this, thanks for the update as always Cyn!
Played Days on MelonDS a while back with upscaling and my Steam controller, it was great. Can't wait to try this out when I revisit the series again.
358/2 Days was my favorite kingdom hearts game i am happy to see this
Same here. Xion is also my favorite character.
This is pretty neat.
Since I modded my new 3ds I've started playing this game for the first time and what's really cool is that you can patch some cheats that let you use the analog stick with true 360 movement and the cstick for the camera instead of the touch screen.
So essentialy, I'm playing with actual DS hardware but with better controls.
Hope you're doing well! Love from Tennessee
Ive been playing this for the last few weeks its insane!!
I KNEW someone would do it, and I'm so excited to play it. Thank you so much the the creators.
Yooo this is sick defintly gonna try this out asap.
this is pretty cool replayed days like a year or 2 ago will need to get this the next time i feel like going through days it was my favorite game in the series and narratively it still is
I literally just finished replaying this game a month ago and now thiss comes out. I guess I'm replaying it again lol
Having actual good camera controls are so nice for these games. This and Re:Coded are the reasons why my R button got basically shattered on my old DSi.
that is so sick imma go try it rn always wanted to play days again
that's so cool, definitely gonna play this
What I'm excited about is the version modders are making in KH2's engine.
Kh2 engine?! Sign me up!
Also good to see you didn't expect to see you I the wild haha
This is my favorite game, im so glad i ran into this video!
Never got to play this when it first came out back then, definitely going to be playing through this now.
This is definitely my new favorite way to play it, before this I was using my Wii U to play on a big screen and occasionally glancing down at the tablet when needed. But this feels miles better to play!
This is REVOLUTIONARY!!! I really do hope this will be applied in Recoded as well. For now I'm definitely excited to try out this on my pc
modders continue doing more than the actual game companies for a lot less money
I've been replay recoded recently and I remember why I loved playing it so much as a kid
wow this is really awesome D:
Love to see this! Hopefully we can get this for Re:Coded too. I always loved Days and Re:Coded, and I feel that people’s opinions on these games would’ve changed had they been officially remastered. Also, seeing the new bloods who only experienced these games through the HD cutscenes actually being able to play the game and see what they think of it would’ve been interesting.
I have literally thought about doing this myself. The logistics, the work arounds, everything.
Though admittedly I wasn't going to make it a public program. I was more concerned with remapping tools and pip screens to emulate this kind of effect. Still, glad someone else beat me to it!
epic I will definitely have a took a look at this! havent touched days since the DS days which... was quite a while ago
This is actually my #1 favorite in the series. So underrated and underappreciated
Thats awesome. I really wanna try it, but sadly I'm not smart enough to get it working. Love 358/2 Days so much
I watched Days a few years ago. Cried. Got a New 3DSXL recently and played Days, cried again.
Bring it on.
Amazing!!! I hope Vitor make a KH:recoded Melon Mix, that game deserve a better treatment
I cannot wait to give this a shot!
I wonder why Square Enix won't do a HD remake for Days or ReCoded
They're scared.
This game i remember playing this in High School when released love it so much❤
Here ON TIME baby.
Hope this means some more people will get to experience this game in full. It's one thing to watch the cutscenes and get the idea of what happened - it's another thing entirely to go through every heart-wrenching part of the story.
This looks amazing!
Perfect timing as I take a break from getting all trophies in KH2FM.
I'm very glad it came about, Days is my favorite video game and now more people will play it!
So cool!!
Although the instal process seem a bit complex.
yeh im confused with it. any luck?
@@VTuberTeej I haven't tryed yet, ive just seen the webs and it looks hard.
Download the thing
Extract to empty folder
Create a rom folder in this folder
Rename nds file to game.nds and put it in rom folder
Profit
Ignore all the stuff about compiling and building from source just download it from the release tab
Just updated the instructions. It should be easier to follow now. Just stick to the "How to play" section
Now all we need to do is figure out importing the HD cutscenes into the rom! At that point, I wouldn't even want an "official" remake.
the 1.5 version was such a great cinema never new there was a playable ds version great to see theres an hd version now, hopefully they make a remix of it like chain of memories
Amazing, now if the chat portraits weren't stretched and if the HD cutscenes could be inserted into the mod then it would literally be perfect :D
I have know about this for a few months, and I have really been hoping someone would cover it. I have not seen anyone make a video or even talk about it apart from some random reddit thread I was able to find on it
ikr
I've never played Days but it has always seemed very interesting. I hope an official remake will be made some day
Thank GOD. I've been meaning to play this forever but was never able to get it on DS. I refused to emulate it because I just have no fun emulating DS games with losing the touch screen and I've stopped progressing through the KH series because I was waiting to play this game. This project was basically made for me.
it doesnt use the touch screen so no loss really
You probably should've reworded that last bit there. It sounds like you linked a rom in the description, which you didn't (thankfully). Try to word stuff like that better next time XD
But otherwise great video, and thank you for bringing it to a lot of people's attention, including mine!
this makes me realise how small you are in days in various environments
ofc, it's to make sure you dont take up much screen real estate so you can see what's happening
but damn, lil rucksack
Square needs to do a remake of days, my very first game in the saga and my favourite character(Roxas) in it.
The title got my hopes up, but this is cool too.
Imagine if this allows modding support snd you can mod in custom weapons, movesets, spells, items, etc! Maybe even new missions and multiplayer!
well the custom emulator version is all an open source project... So anyone who knows how to code game dev in C or C++ etc. technically could give any of that a shot if they really wanted to put in the time ;D
I hope they do enemy variety with the bosses since most bosses in this game are just giant versions of regular heartless.
It’s a good time to be a KH fan
How the developers were able to make a PS2 game look this good on a Nintendo DS is something extraordinary. This mod makes that even more noticeable and it's amazing!
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days will always have a special place in my heart, I feel like I experienced the game at the right time in my teens. And to this day the theme of Xion makes me tear up. The friendship and the twist between Axel, Roxas and Xion and the sentence "Who else I am gonna eat ice cream with?" will always give me goosebumps :) Amazing project, looks really good - thanks for the video and info.
Oh hell yeah this looks like a fantastic way to play one of my favorite KH games! Though, I am curious, how does it handle moments where there’s more than just the map on the bottom screen? Some of the most memorable moments from days were those moments where it just suddenly started to show Sora doing the same thing on the bottom screen, so I’m curious if that’s just cut out altogether with no bottom screen?
I'm at Day 100 on the Melon Mix custom emulator for 358Days, and it will show BOTH screens for CUTSCENES when Sora appears on the 2nd screen. idk if it's advanced enough to detect about changing to both screens during normal gameplay tho since it seems quite tricky to detect and "recode" the emulator for this.. but at least they've determined which cutscenes should include the 2nd screen along with the main wide screen
Square Enix, hire this man
Great vid, and now it has me looking into dumping my own copy of Days to play this updated version, but did I miss something? Just started getting back into KH vids after the Steam announcement, and you're the second RUclipsr I've heard call it "Three-Five-Eight Over Two Days" in the last week, when I thought the accepted name was "Three-Five-Eight Days Over Two." I could have sworn that's how we all used to pronounce it.
Maybe those two specific people saw how its printed on the box and came to their conclusions following that, maybe its a familiarity thing?
For the record, the latter is how it was said in a commercial so that is offically what the title is. ruclips.net/video/uI7LyPNsqUg/видео.html
I just finished the DS game last month!
I was thinking about re-playing Days on the ds but I think I'll download this instead!
4:03 Coming off the settings explanation, I was worried you were gonna say you sat down for 9 hours just setting up the controls lol
now I wanted to get this running on my Steam Deck!
This rom hack paired with a steam deck or other portable handheld console
purely immaculate.
Just in time for the steam version of the games as well.
this game really is a must play kingdom hearts title in my opinion.
it's very sad it never got the hd remix treatment like the others.
Maybe one day we'll see it in UR4 or 5.
literally my favorite KH game
I love MelonDs! It finally allowed me to play nintendogs again with a mic lol
It would be so cool if this included all the cutscenes from the Days movie in their appropriate spots in the story as well.
Now they just need to put the HD cutscnes to replace the original cutscenes, and you have a definitive edition.
Been playing this game since emulators came to iOS. Been having a blast. Enhanced graphics are nice, but also playing through story missions using cheats to select any characters I want. I beat this game back when I had it on DS, and it’s been a refreshing way to replay this game.
This is looking so good, wonder how far it can go. Can they replace models and textures?
maybe not models, but i heard they are hoping to replace DS textures with the textures from the KH HD collection games and possibly add the HD remix cutscene movies too. I think they are waiting for the main Melon DS open source team to release some emulator features that will make these future planned custom enhancements more easily/rapidly possible tho first iirc?
wow i might actually try it
I’ve said it since day 1 of the remakes we should’ve gotten Re:Days over Re:Com so I’m so glad this exists
looks awesome :)
This is really cool!! I do hope that the team behind this keeps certain cutscenes as being split across the two screens, some of it explicitly is designed with there being two screens in mind, and trying to shrink THAT down to one monitor is gonna lose you some of the emotion in the scenes imo
358/2 was my first KH game… then DBD. My perspective on the series is a bit different from the average fans. This game is so worth playing.
gonna play this on my Steamdeck!!!!!!!!!
Now we gotta figure out how to get multiplayer working 🙏🏽✨❤
I like the HD cutscenes of 358/2 Days and it's not terrible.
They remade DDD from the 3DS to PlayStation so I’m extremely exited for this
I’ve been playing days a lot recently so this is perfect timing and it’s right around the time the Roxas psychology video came out too on bio Roxas channel as a roxas fan this is more fanservice
Guess you could say this project just made your Days! 😉
No way! That was so fast 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮
Does MelonDS support texture packs? Since most of KH Days reuses areas and assets from KH2, I wonder if it'd be possible to use some of those old textures to give it more polish.
the project coders are planning to import the KH2 textures for their version 1.0 eventually. The playable version right now is only version 0.2 still ;D
