Not a good sign

Games go through a lot of testing and work-ups before they see release to the public. There are always kinks to work out and hurdles to leap. In the case of Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory, the team had to figure out how to stop making people sick.

In an interview with Nintendo Life, co-director Masanobu Suzui mentioned that the early prototypes for the game ended up making people motion sick due to movement. That obviously needed to be tweaked before the rest of the game could move forward!

"First of all the camera was quite difficult - it ended up making a lot of people motion sick - so we had to create a lot of different prototypes and this camera element and the action elements are areas that we've tweaked a lot as we've gone on."
