Topic: New Fire Emblem news

[Dia]

I didn't see a topic about this yet, so I apologize in advance if there's already a topic on this. In any case, the Fire Emblem direct was a few days ago, and they dropped hella news on us. 4 titles were discussed, two if which are dropping this year.

The first is the one I'm most hype for, Shadows of Valencia. This one probably stoke the show because it's not a new title, rather a 3ds reboot of a Japan exclusive title. Anyone who played a translated rom can attest to it's quality, so seeing it with modern graphics and stuff will be great for any longtime fans.

The second title is Fire Emblem heroes, the mobile title. From the looks of things, every character from every game will be useable, and a poll is out for players to choose their favorites. It seems to use the avatar system as well, allowing you to pick and name a character for yourself.

The third is for the Nintendo Switch, which has yet to be named. We do know that it will be the latest flagship title, rather than a reboot or a spinoff. FE15 is schedule to drop next year.

The last title is Fire Emblem Warriors, a Fire Emblem and Dynasty warriors crossover. So far we see Chrome, Corrin, Ryoma, Xander, and Martha confirmed for the game, as their weapons were featured in the trailer. It is also slated to release on the Switch.

I'm a FE fanboy, so I'm hype no matter what they give us, but does anyone else have any thoughts?

That's a lot of Fire Emblem planned despite the fact the several titles (at least 3) were released not all that long ago (at least it doesn't seem all that long ago). They must be burning the midnight oil over there or something.

I'm guessing it has a lot to do with the recent success of the series. Nintendo must be trying to milk it like no tomorrow. It makes sense, despite what a lot of older players like myself would have you believe, Awakenings sales kept the series from flatlining. Now that it's a cash cow, they're gonna take full advantage of it.

I'm horrible at strategy games, but I'm all about dat Warriors title based on how fun Hyrule Warriors is. It's such a glorious button masher with a sleek presentation. Definitely a day-one Switch buy when it's out.
