[3DS] Fire Emblem Awakening
Japanese Homepage: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/afej/index.html Think this is the 13th title of the Fire Emblem series. So far a Japanese and European release have been confirmed. The game will be released in japan on the 19/04/2012 and sometime this year in Europe (probably Australia as well) So far we know that the game wil have two heroes, this is one of them Spoiler:
The game will also feature DLC. These DLC, if i understand correctly, are distributed as set, containing new episodes and maps. So you don't just by one map, but a new story. In japan the first DLC will be available on the same date as the game and available for free until the end of May 2012. You can find a new cel-shaded trailer on: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/3ds/afej/movie/index.html More on Fire Emblem: Intelligent Systems' Fire Emblem World homepage (make sure to check out the sound museum) Limited Edition 3DS Box & console Spoiler:
JPN box & eshop card (1000 Yen) Spoiler:

Okay, that trailer? It just makes me suspect it's going to be a new Akaneia/Archanea/whatever-based game, since the continent shown right after Emelina sheds a tear looks suspiciously like Akaneia. Also the shield at the end looks like the Shield of Seals

Eh, could be. Though I wouldn't be surprised if it was his "Suspiciously Similar Descendant." Or it could go the other way around and masked dude could be Anri, Marth's ancestor and Awakening winds up being a prequel to all the Akaneia games. But I think that option will be the least likely one.

I hope not. His story's been told twice-over already. They'd be really stretching for anything further, which would be ridiculous to do when they can just make a new world like always.
Personally, if we're going with "wishes that won't happen"... HD or 3D remake of FE4 please~ |

As for this, I'm liking the overall plot points we got. It seems to feel like a solid FE story. The graphics look good, but I don't think I'll ever be able to seriously say "yay, 3D" for characters in a FE game. I really liked the sprite work the series had before, but oh well. My Unit is also a nice addition. I just hope the overall classes are a bit more balanced, because often times in FE12 you'd find yourself struggling not to pick the most powerful ones with MU.

Uh, it didn't confirm
Spoiler for masked character:

This is one of the times I regret buying NoA's 3Ds.
I heard that Shadow Dragon didn't do well during it's release, and knowing NoA, there's fat chance of having this game localized. They didn't even localize Shin Monsho no Nazo, so yea...better not get the hopes up.
