Sentacotus Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) With the compatability of Amiibo confirmed for Fire Emblem If and its surge in popularity as a series its got me wondering if we will see a seperate Fire Emblem line of Amiibo perhaps even starting with If. I don't think its a suprise that the Super Mario series got its own line because its viability to sell and while alot of people out there might contend that Fire Emblem might simply not get one because its not as popular consider that Amiibos across the board have been selling like hotcakes regardless of series/franchise. Additionally, its a venture that Nintendo has been highly profitable in and given the slow sales of the Wii U it is most welcome to them indeed. What are your thoughts on the idea of a Fire Emblem line of Amiibo? Do you even think there will be one in the first place? I know there are other threads (below) that talk about the Amiibo craze but I felt like the topic of a potentially seperate fire emblem line warranted a new disscussion geared towards that but if this is treading into already treaded terriotory go ahead and lock this thread please.

MCProductions Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Yes, tho only because I want a Lyn Amiibo Maybe a Roy amiibo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Yes, tho only because I want a Lyn Amiibo Maybe a Roy amiibo We're probably getting a Roy amiibo anyway, since as things stand there's a very high chance he's going to be SSB4 DLC. That said, I wouldn't mind, but I'm expecting a Zelda line first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I'm expecting a Zelda line first as well, but of course, I would have zero complaint with a second Ike Amiibo, as well as a Ryouma Amiibo. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCProductions Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 Eh, I'll be okay with just Roy. I would love a Lyn amiibo Tiki would complete my top 3 FE characters assumeing the above happens That said, I'd take Marx over Ryouma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cowboy Karimov Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) All I'm hoping for is that the regular Bonus Box isn't taken away. Maybe the Amiibos will act like paid DLC and give you extra chapters and weapons. We're probably getting a Roy amiibo anyway, since as things stand there's a very high chance he's going to be SSB4 DLC.That said, I wouldn't mind, but I'm expecting a Zelda line first. I thought that Shovel Knight was more popular than Roy.

Anacybele Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 (edited) People found Roy sound files and a victory theme in the last Smash Bros. update patch. Edited May 2, 2015 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roflolxp54 Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 I'm all in for Fire Emblem amiibo as long as they're well stocked and/or have card versions readily available. But from what I've seen, that may be too much to ask for, especially since at least part of the amiibo production process involves work done by hand rather than by machine and the problems with worker unions (in America) and scalpers.

Ein Posted May 2, 2015 Share Posted May 2, 2015 They should just stick with Mario and Zelda and Pokemon Amiibos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 If they are actually distributed properly and given enough Amiibos for everyone. But that's a pipe dream at this point because Nintendo doesn't realize how popular FE characters are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm hoping for is that the regular Bonus Box isn't taken away. Maybe the Amiibos will act like paid DLC and give you extra chapters and weapons. I thought that Shovel Knight was more popular than Roy. (I'm personally hoping for Snake to come back) I doubt it will be if anything it'll be like Hyrule Warriors content possibly unique Einherjar models and the such. If they are actually distributed properly and given enough Amiibos for everyone. But that's a pipe dream at this point because Nintendo doesn't realize how popular FE characters are. Maybe but on the other hand Nintendo has really been pushing Fire Emblem as a series and I do think they are trying to capitalize as much as possible on Awakening's success.

Anacybele Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Bleh, not interested in either of those three (Tiki, Lyn, or Roy). Gimme Ephraim in addition to that Ryouma and second Ike. <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magical Glace Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 The only one of those three I really would like is Roy. I'm getting Marth when restock happens I would like Micaiah, Eirika, Eliwood, and Seliph though. And Wolt but unless FE6 is remade that's not happening. Oh well, I can live without a figure of my favorite FE character... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'd love one, but I'm really unsure if Nintendo is gonna do it. To be honest, around now would be the perfect time... in Japan at least, because of the 25th anniversary and what not. Dunno what kind of excuse they could have in the West though... Well, I guess even if it's just Marth, Lucina, Robin and Ike, that would be cool. Since I haven't got any of them yet and they fly off shelves XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentacotus Posted May 3, 2015 Author Share Posted May 3, 2015 I could see them doing it in Japan especially with the TCG coming out there. If they ever did it here it would have to coincide with a game release possibly SMT x FE or FE if. Even then it would have to be the staples and icons of the franchise that don't already have amiibo like Tiki, Lyn, and Roy (who might get one because of SSB4). I could also potentially see maybe even Anna or Kamui getting one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCProductions Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'm still ligitimately shocked at how "rare" the present FE amiibos are when I got Marth and Ike with no real difficulty. If they were to do a set of FE amiibo however, half would be Series Stables,Lyn(YAY),Marth,Ike,Roy,Tiki, and maybe Anna, while the rest would be If characters. Don't ask how I got Marth and Ike without preordering with no difficulty or price increase, even I'm not sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'm getting Marth when restock happens Same here, hopefully. I'm getting Robin when he's released here too, because Best Buy preorder. But Ike...if that Dec. 8th GameStop preorder ever gets filled... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirie Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I would love more FE Amiibos and even a dedicated Amiibo line, but I'm certainly not going to get my hopes up about that actually happening. I'd buy a bunch of it does, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Ike...if that Dec. 8th GameStop preorder ever gets filled... Why not just use Ebay, that's where I got Ike for around 14$ shortly after his release. The European version anyway, thank God amiibo are region free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Star and Moon Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I'd say we'd be more likely to have an Amiibo line if there was a Fire Emblem game for the Wii U. Well, I guess SMTxFE sort of counts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anacybele Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 (edited) Why not just use Ebay, that's where I got Ike for around 14$ shortly after his release. Because I haven't seen Ike that cheap anywhere there or other places online? I've not seen him go for less than $40 now. Plus, I learned today that my preorder should get filled at the end of the month. ^^ Edited May 3, 2015 by Anacybele Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I preordered Marth a week in advance and got him in the mail 9 days later, and Ike I bought a European import 2 days after his release and somehow got him 3 days later.International shipping is funny like that sometimes Plus, since amiibo are region free, you can import them from Japan for less. That's my plan for getting Lucy early Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anacybele Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 Not really. Shipping costs go through the roof if you import from so far away. Besides, like I said, my preorder should be arriving at the end of the month. I can wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCProductions Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 I wasn't saying to change what you've presently got planned. I was just giving advice on how to beat the scalpers and get amiibo before they even make it here. I still can't belive how rare these things actually are tho. Makes me wish I kept the boxes so I could resell them, all well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
