I don't have much to say that hasn't already been covered - this game is a beautiful little miracle and I am strapped the hell in.

It's worth noting that the first minute of this game, which has less to do with Fire Emblem, already features the actual series main theme in greater capacity than Fates did. :v:

Do we know why Nintendo didn't do an English dub of the game? It seems a bit odd.

The game bombed in Japan and they rightfully didn't expect it to do any better here - it wasn't worth it.

The official reason was, in fewer words, that the game was :japan: as all hell anyway so the Japanese voices sort of fit, and I don't entirely disagree with that either.

E: Also even if there was a dub they likely wouldn't have touched the songs, so the change between English dialogue and Japanese AMVs would have been a bit jarring.

For the benefit of those that haven't played, that sticker of Touma's with Japanese on it was translated in the game itself, saying "Here I Go!", but I guess no one's ever bothered to extract the English versions.

Gotta admit, Tsoubasa's text messaging is pretty hilarious because I'm friends with a couple of weeb girls in sydney who have been in and out of japan a few times and they speak via text in the exact same way

One of my favourite little things about this game is that every character has their own "voice" when texting, all of which are really believable and authentic.

Good lord there is a surprisingly high amount of production quality in the videos you are showing us of this game. I guess it really did get hosed over by timing and not doing well in japan. How exactly did this not do well in japan again, it really seem like the kind thing persona crowd at least would get into?

So is there anything neat happening on the second screen while the game is running or is this just a one-screen game?

It's where the text messages he presents in quote blocks come up, as well as an area map.

Supports are the worst part of fire emblem

Yeah, giving units that aren't featured in the main plot a chance to establish a basic personality ruined the series. :what:

I think the game just makes a point of having a small scene whenever you enter an Idolasphere for a quest (as opposed to just grinding or something, I dunno).
