Edit: Neogaf's Duckroll is also confirming this to be true. Because of various confirmations, KHInsider is lead to believe that Re: Chain of Memories will indeed be released in North America. However, we are not yet fully sure if it will be with Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+. Stay tuned. =)
Very very odd and surprising news. Do not take it as confirmed yet!. However, it has been going around the blogosphere that Kingdom Hearts: Re: Chain of Memories is indeed coming out for North America (without Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix?). The following statement was released on the website WithTheWill:
I've confirmed this with MULTIPLE people.
I don't know if it's the full Final Mix+, or just Re:COM...
But we are getting Re:Chains Of Memories in the USA.
I've even been told the character artwork they are showing is the generic 'CGI Pose' of the Organization members that are up at damn near EVERY Kingdom Hearts fansite.
Square (or Disney, not sure), have been auditioning TONS of people for the last few weeks for voices of Organization XIII members (Vexen, Lexaeus, Zexion, Marluxia, and Larxene) saying the game is 'Chains of Memories'.
The casting people/paperwork are/is specifically calling it 'Kingdom Hearts Chains of Memories' and are SPECIFICALLY casting the 5 Organization members that I named in the article, all of whom were in CoM and don't have cast English voice actors (outside of those 5 I don't know if anyone else is being cast in any fashion, although I THINK those were the only 5 characters who are in CoM who don't already have English actors from KH/KH2).
So while it is possible they are being cast for 358/2 Days, the 'name' being told to people in the auditions is specifically CoM, I've reconfirmed that specific fact with quite a few people who auditioned and it has been consistent between them all.
This was followed by a post from Neogaf Member: Aeana, known for her insider information, with: "This is not untrue."
For those that do not know, Kingdom Hearts: Re: Chain of Memories is a remake of Chain of Memories for the Playstation 2, included with Kingdom Hearts 2: Final Mix+.
Unlike previous rumors, KHInsider actually believes this one to be true. However, it is still a rumor, and should be treated as one. As usual, KHInsider.com keeps you updated on incoming Kingdom Hearts info the fastest! =) Make sure to comment and join in on our community discussion!
Keep your fingers crossed.....

I read about this on KHUltimania just 30 minutes ago. I hope this does come, as it might inspire me to play the games again (a love which was murdered by KH2). If so, hopefully the Final Mix+ will come, too. An added difficulty couldn't hurt that game.

I remember when i lost hope last year for this ever happening and it's been built back up a little thanks to this news even though it's still a rumor(is this an oxymoron?), but i won't get too excited for it until there is final confirmation.
Well, I'm excited(again) but I'm not going to get my hopes up. Definitely treating this as a rumor to the highest level. I don't think I'll believe it until I actually see the game box at the store.
I mean, not that I mind playing the GBA version on the Game Boy Player (on my GameCube) but playing an actual console version would be SO MUCH BETTER =D
But the thing that makes Woody special, is he'll never give up on you... ever. He'll be there for you, no matter what.
That whould be great I never played the original Chain Of Memories (I wanted to but never found it,I found it on a website and then lost it,and now I have a DS).
I wouldn't consider it a deadbeat franchise, but it is a form of milking I suppose. An actual sequel I wouldn't mind. But I'd rather play it on the PS2 than GBA.
