Shapashtu

I just bought mine from Amazon Canada (I was just sitting here refreshing the page and saw it was up).

I preordered it the instant I saw it was up for preorder on Amazon. I can't seem to find the amiibos from a Canadian retailer, though. I've never bought them before but I like the look of the amiibos.

I have a friend who got into FE through FE7 after I ranted and raved about it. She loved Awakening and Fates, I didn't like Awakening but I'm liking Conquest, and she said that without supports she's not interested in this game. I've seen many similar comments. I'm trying to be optimistic but I can see most newer fans looking at how different this game is and not buying it, which means the game won't be successful, which means no more remakes. I'm excited though. I love the art style, the music, what I've seen of gameplay so far, it all looks so good!

I've been stalking this board relentlessly for information on Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia so I thought I'd make an account and join the discussions here. I'm Shapashtu (or Shap). My first Fire Emblem game was FE 7, I've also played FE 8, Shadow Dragon, Awakening, and Fates (Conquest). I'm currently working my way through my first playthrough of Conquest and I'm trying to beat Shadow Dragon (only played up to chapter 12 before I gave up) before Echoes. The low points in the series for me are Shadow Dragon (the other games spoiled me with supports) and Awakening (I didn't like any of the characters or the emphasis on marriage and children, I like m/f platonic supports too). Although, so far I am enjoying Conquest.
