Hello there, apologies again for the lack of posts, the Luigi's Mansion post will be soon, I promise. But I have some good news to bring as well: I have finally acquired the original release of Kingdom Hearts for the PS2. Most of the listings I've found were asking a lot more for what it was, but few days ago I've stumbled upon one that was in that median price range, so I knew I had to get it.
Since it is the original "black box" release, it has that lenticular/laminated print on the cover, which I really like and it also has the Squaresoft logos instead of the later Square Enix ones. Other than that, it doesn't have any substantial differences.
I've decided that I would include the scans into the existing archive, so it's all in one place. Also I apologise for the quality of the cover, the scan did not pan out that great, so I had to resort to a camera instead.
