| Attendees of Square-Enix's Jump Festa 2008 event--which actually
takes place at the end of 2007--will be treated to an assault of new Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts and Dragon Quest
games. The downside? Almost none of it will be playable. And the side
that's deeper down the well of pain than that? A half-dozen new
trailers, including new ones for Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, and Kingdom Hearts: Birth By Sleep,
will only be shown in the company's "Closed Door Mega Theater." That
means seemingly endless waits for a look at the semi-private showing of
the PlayStation 3, PSP and Nintendo DS follow ups to Squeenix's cash
cows. It's quite cruel.
For a list of what will be on hand December 22nd and 23rd at the Makuhari Messe, you know what to do.
The confirmed playable and already released titles are in bold. Everything else shows up in trailer form only.

- Dragon Quest IV (DS)

- Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon (Wii)
