Nintendo has launched a third Fire Emblem website today, naturally it's the official site for IF. It doesn't have too much right now, but it does have some nice artwork and shows off a special edition version being sold.

Anyone that understands Japanese can make out what all is included in the special edition? It looks like the last item on the list is an artbook, and the first item looks likely to be the game itself (duh) but what's the middle item? Special Edition 3DS?

If it turns out to be pokemon fe i wont have a problem, I'll buy both versions.

are they insinuating avatar genders are canonic respecting the country already?

Thing is, if they're sold as separate versions, that means that one will have Hoshido's story and the other one Nohr's story, then where are the 'ifs' and the decision making?

Artbook and TCG promo card.

Also the official site is quite interesting... I'm trying to translate the blurbs. Here's the first part.

At the heart of this world is a conflict between the peace-loving kingdom of Hoshido and the glory-seeking kingdom of Nohr. As the strained relationship between the two nations reaches its critical point, a large-scaled conflict breaks out. The protagonist was born in the Hoshidan royal family, but raised by the Nohrian royal family; he or she is faced with a great decision. The keyword for this new Fire Emblem is "if". With Hoshido and Nohr as the backdrops, the player must make choices, which will affect the story, battles and recruitable characters, while progressing two very extremely different stories.
Fire Emblem if Hoshido

A story focusing on protecting your Hoshidan birthland and royal relatives from the Nohrian invasion. Outside the main story, you can earn experience and funds and freely develop your characters; perfect for those who enjoy freedom.

Fire Emblem if Nohr

In this story, you work with the Nohrian royal family to battle the internal conflicts within Nohr itself. Compared to Hoshido, the difficulty is higher, with limited chances to earn experience and funds.

So story-wise Hoshido is more traditional FE while gameplay style is more toward Awakening. Opposite for Nohr, a non-traditional FE story but more traditional gameplay style such as limited funds and experiences. Interesting...

Huh... I'm getting the feeling that the Hoshido path is more meant to cater to the newer fans brought in by Awakening, and the Nohr path is trying to cater more to fans of the older FE games. Just a feeling, I could be completely off the mark here.
