Valbar and Lukas from Gaiden/Shadows of Valentia, with Valbar representing Knights and both of them representing lance infantry.

I would be upset if this leak was true. Shadow Dragon needs more than three characters, Celica shouldn't be added without Alm, and Ike should be in if other non-focus game characters are.

I bought a copy of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon on Etsy a couple of months ago. Today I finally decided to play it, but when I stuck the game card in both my original 3DS and DS Lite, I got this message: "Unable to save data. Please turn the power off, reinsert the Game Card, and try again." Needless to say, I followed those instructions. No matter how many times I try it won't work on either system, and I can't find any helpful information online. Do you guys know what the problem is?

How do I choose my free hero? I already did my free pull.

According to Gamestop's preorder page, the Special Edition releases on October 10th instead of October 28th! I'd advise every fan to preorder the Special Edition so they can play the game earlier.

I think I may have solved three separate mysteries regarding the lore of the 3DS games. These mysteries are Corrin's canonical spouse, Robin's canonical spouse, and the reason why Hoshido and Nohr are well-known myths in Ylisse. Please don't be turned off by me mentioning canon spouses (and by extension canon avatar genders)- the evidence is clear as day. First of all, what do we already know about the connections between Ylisse and the world of Fates? The Shepherds (specifically Chrom) mention that everyone knows the story of the mythical kingdoms of Hoshido and Nohr. This, combined with the fact that Felicia calls Ylisse another world, has led most fans to believe that Fates takes place in a completely separate universe than Shadow Dragon, Gaiden/Echoes, and Awakening. These fans have been misled. I will now present my theory. Corrin and Caeldori are canonically married, and therefore Corrin is canonically male. Robin is canonically married to Cordelia. Corrin is actually Robin in a past life, and the same applies to Caeldori and Cordelia. The other Fates characters who look like Awakening characters are also their lookalikes in a past life. I might sound like a Cordelia fanboy, but I'm not. I don't even like her character much. I have simply stated what Intelligent Systems has suggested, and now I will try to prove it. The basis of all of this comes from two major sources: Caeldori's confession scene and the Before Awakening DLC battle. Many of you will already know this, but this is Caeldori's confession quote: "Our love is eternal; somehow I just know it. If we cross paths again in a distant future... promise me you'll remember me." There's the biggest evidence for Caeldori reincarnating (along with Corrin) in the far future. How do I know that it's referring to Awakening, and that Robin is Corrin reincarnated? It all comes down to Fates' Before Awakening DLC. For Caeldori, if she talks to Chrom, she'll claim that she didn't expect him to talk to her suddenly like that, but he does seem rather charming. This sets up Cordelia's future love for Chrom, and sets in stone that Caeldori and Corrin meet eachother again during the events of Awakening. How do we know who Corrin becomes? It involves the end of the DLC, which directly coincides with the beginning of Fire Emblem Awakening. In fact, the battle ends when Robin first awakens! What's important to note is what Corrin and Chrom say to eachother before the Fates characters return home, as well as the perfect timing of it. Here's what they say: Chrom: "If you get the chance, come visit us again sometime. I'd like to talk more about our respective kingdoms Corrin: "I'm sure if you wish it, we'll meet again someday. Just hold fast to your beliefs." Chrom: "I will. I'll look forward to the day our paths cross again." Corrin: "Thanks, Chrom. I hope to spend time together again someday as well." After that final exchange, Chrom remarks that he doesn't think it's the last time he'll see the Fates characters. Lissa was impressed by Corrin's battle tactics, and Chrom claims that the Shepherds could use a tactician like him. At that EXACT moment, Lissa spots Robin unconsious on the ground. The implications are clear, combined with what we know about Caeldori and Cordelia. Corrin and Robin are mirrored in an additional way- their initial bonds with Chrom, Lissa, and Frederick. They both get along very well with Chrom, and become friends very quickly. Lissa is kind and welcoming to both of the avatars as well. Finally, Frederick is suspicious of both Robin and Corrin when they first appear. Now that there is little doubt that Caeldori is Cordelia and Corrin is Robin, how do we know that they married each other in both lives? This once again takes us back to Caeldori's confession quote in Fates. She claims that she knows their love is eternal before mentioning meeting eachother in a distant future. Intelligent Software's intentions are clear. They have intentionally and cleverly given us an answer to who the avatars canonically marry, while further connecting two masterpieces. This certainly makes Tharja/Rhajat more interesting: she's obsessed over Robin/Corrin and stalked him throughout TWO lives. I currently believe that what I discussed above is as close to hard canon as it can possibly be, based on the evidence provided. However, here's where my theory looses direct evidence. Fates and Awakening are now known to be in the same world, but Fates takes place LONG before Awakening, explaining why it's events are considered mythical. Where are Hoshido and Nohr- or at least their continent- during the time of Ylisse? Nowi is stated to have come from another continent to the west. This suggests that Archanea, Valentia, and Jugdral are not the only continents in this world. The Fates continent is never seen or mentioned in other games simply because it is far away from, and generally unrelated to, the focus continents. That's all for now. Feel free to discuss this in replies. In the words of Matthew Patrick- that's just a theory, a game theory.

(This is not a debate thread over shippings.) I'm starting a new Awakening playthrough soon. Should my Robin marry Lissa or Tiki? Try to consider both the resulting Morgan's stats and your personal preference.

I'll probably stick to the English voices that I'm used to, but it's nice to know that they included an option for those who prefer the undubbed voices.

Either Robin or Frederick, most likely the latter. If Takumi is in- which he probably is- I'll probably main him instead.

What characters do you want to see from the three focus games? (I doubt that we'll get any characters that don't have Amiibos from other games.) I would personally like to see Nowi, Takumi, and Felicia. However, I have no doubt that Takumi will be in the game.

So, do you guys want an avatar and S-rank supports? I know many of you don't want another "Waifu Emblem," so I'm curious.

I don't care about weapons, but I would personally like to see a female lord and an avatar. Preferably, neither would use a sword. Perhaps the female lord could be a pegasus knight with a lance, and the avatar could use something like a shuriken.

Hello everyone. I'm Denomon3144. You may know me from other sites like The ZT2 Round Table and Roblox. Most of you wouldn't consider me to be much of a Fire Emblem fan, since I've only played the 3DS games. I truly love this series, though. My first game was Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright. I researched Corrin after he was revealed to be DLC for Super Smash Bros. 4, and I ended up preordering the game. After that, I played Awakening, Conquest, and Revelation. I preordered Echoes: Shadows of Valentia as soon as I could, and I love it. I am extremely hyped for Fire Emblem Warriors (and the upcoming main series game) for the Nintendo Switch! Don't think I ONLY enjoy the new games- I would definitely be willing to play the older ones if I had the chance. My favorite 3DS character is probably Felicia. I love her clumsiness, and some of her quotes are hilarious. Plus, she pairs well with Corrin. Even though I haven't been able to play the non-3DS games, my favorite older character is Ike. He's my main in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Non-Fire Emblem interests of mine include Jurassic Park, Godzilla, Zoo Tycoon 2, other Nintendo games, Roblox, roleplaying, and paleontology.
