Gamers are given the option to register their games, which will than appear on their profile homepage."

Looks like our user frostyhudson's 411mania site has ceased their great release lists, so it's back to shacknews.
Shed a tear, then remember Risen, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, the Wizard of Oz RPG (really, it's gonna be good -- check for Neoseeker's review shortly), Valhalla Knights: Eldar Saga, Gran Turismo PSP, Obscure, and lastly (phwew), the PSPGo are coming out (plus a few other highlights).
At Nintendo's E3 2009 Media Briefing, NoA President Reggie Fils-Aime has announced release dates for two upcoming RPG titles.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days will release September 29th.
Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story will release this Fall.
About a month ago, there was news that Kingdom Hearts, 358/2 days would come out in Febuary over in Japan, coming with a special edition DSi. Unfortunatley, it was revealed at Jump Festa yesterday, that the game is said to release in Spring 2009.
No word about the Special Edition DSi, chances are likely that it will be launched with the game in Spring 2009.
"Square-Enix has announced their 2009 line-up of titles. Some of these have not been nailed down for a North American or European release as of yet, but given their track record it is only a matter of time.
The Line-Up:

Dragon Quest Monster Battle Road II (Arcade)
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days (DS)
Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep (PSP)
Kingdom Hearts Coded (Mobile)
Kingdom Hearts Mobile (Mobie)
Lost Winds (Wii)
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicle..."
While I think Square Enix are getting kind of greedy to be forcing people to buy a book to learn info about their titles I'm sure most fans won't matter. On Amazon Japan a second Cloud book is up, to be released on December 12th, already announced to be packed with screenshots, art and info on all the games and products mentioned below. Let's hope its actually something substantial this time, rather than the tiny fragments we usually get.
Kingdom Hearts on the DS is due out in Japan by the end of the fiscal year, meaning sometime between January and March. In celebration, a new scan is here from Shonen Jump.
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days will be added to Square Enix's huge DS portfolio when it's released in February 2009 in Japan. Much like its PSP cousin expectations are high.
With, you guessed it, another Closed Mega Theatre !
... Don't you just love Square Enix ?
Besides the infamous theatre Square Enix will also have demo booths for Dissidia Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days amongst others. Looking good !

Gemaga has been liveblogging Square Enix's DKΣ3713 Private Party that is currently underway right now, with a bunch of megatons and other news to report (via GAF and other blogs):
Square Enix promised everyone Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 would be coming out sometime within the year and so far, it looks like they are backing up their promise. An ad for the game found inside a Dragon Quest V case states the game is "Coming 2008."
Here is the original source, which is in Japanese.
Square Enix decided to do something different for their party this year. DK Σ 3713 isn't just a random combination of letters, numbers and symbols. It's actually the initials of all the major games that will be attending The Square Enix Party 2008 ! And those games are :
PS3 :
- Final Fantasy XIII
- Final Fantasy Versus XIII
PSP :
- Dissidia Final Fantasy
- Kingdom Hearts : Birth by Sleep
DS :
- Kingdom Hearts :358/2 Days
- Sigma Harmonics
Next Gen. Mobile Phones :
- Final...
Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days will apparently be released in Summer of 2008 if the indications in Jump Festa are correct. Roxas seems to have the ability to travel through worlds. Familiar Disney and Square Enix faces will also be in store, as expected.
An interesting sight in the Jump Festa showing of Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days was that of Axel and Roxas being assisted by a mysterious new character. Unfortunately, the identity is still puzzling until now.
Meanwhile, Kingdom Hearts: Birth...
"Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep (PSP)
- Single-Player Adventure Game
- Features: Terra, Aqua, Ven, Master Xehanort, Sora & Riku
- Oylmpus Coliseum & Sleeping Beauty are Confirmed Worlds
Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days (Nintendo DS)
- Single & Multiplayer 3D Adventure Game
- Playable Roxas & Org. XIII Members (Axel, Saix & Xigbar)
- New Characters inc. 14th Org. Member (Female)"
It's not Kingdom Hearts III, but details have been spilled on the whole new series mentioned awhile ago. It is planned to be on the portable systems; DS, PSP, and mobile phones. It is a side-story of Sora's tale, along with a focus on some other aspects such as how Mickey got his key, what happened while Mickey and Riku where in the World of Darkness, and the person that is Roxas. All are exciting places for a story, revealing things that were previously an enigma.
