omegaxis1 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 With this kind of popularity and sales, I highly doubt that a sequel is impossible now. And they promised that they would bring in more characters and from other series if the sales are done well. So next time, I can definitely imagine the Tellius and Elibe series getting more attention. Maybe FE16 when it comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, maybe they could do something as small as put the Falchion or Ragnell in Dark Souls Switch or Skyrim Switch. Maybe Ike, Marth, Lucina, or Robin could appear as a guest character in Soul Calibur. It's fun to think about. I'm hopeful there will be more as well. Don't forget we've had FE reps in Project X Zone 2 and Monster Hunter Generations. So from that perspective, Skyrim or Soul Calibur doesn't seem that strange to me XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redlight Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I'm no fan of hack'n'slash games, but if this means the older games get representation then I'm all for it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandy Druid Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 This, plus the $ they made from DLC probably means a sequel following the same practice would not be a crazy idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron the Shining Blade Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 "It was successful!" "It was successful!" "It was successful!" "It was successful!" "It was successful!" "It was successful!" "It was successful!" SHUT UP, FREDERICK! *ahem* A...a million? Really? Somebody pinch me. I'm genuinely surprised it managed to reach a million in less than half a year. It pleases me greatly to see that it outgrew the too-many-swords and too-much-Fates complaints. I honestly thought it would get dragged down because of that. Thankfully, people are not so stubborn to let that stop them from buying a game from a series they like. I'm glad a sequel is so much more likely to happen now; it could rectify what few problems this game had. Oh, and if we still have personal weapon scrolls and opuses, please don't make us farm 10,000 KO's to unlock True Power. That was a bit annoying. 'K thanks, Koei.

Same especially goes for downloadable content. Ah that makes sense. The title just says sales, but the tweet says units. Neat, that actually makes this all the more impressive.

Zelgius Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 I'm glad to hear this, I actually quite enjoyed this game. I hope there will be a sequel which includes Tellius characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertrick36 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Since some are talking potential roster choices in a (much more likely) sequel... Personally, I know that the Japan-only games aren't as renowned worldwide (though Heroes helped, I'm sure), but I've been playing Genealogy and I kinda want to see some of those guys show up if we aren't to get any more Shadow Dragon characters in the sequel. Everyone talks about the missing niche of the lance cavalier, and I think Finn or Cuan would fill it quite well. The only other character outside the three games represented so far that I can think of who'd fill that is Ephraim, who starts out as an infantry unit. Though I also think the Black Knight would be a double-whammy of a character to bring in. He'd fill that Lu Bu archetype and he'd fill the armor knight niche. And of course I'd still really like to play Ike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregster101 Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 So does this mean we can get a sequel featuring Ike, Roy, and all the other characters we actually want? Cuz if so I'm relieved. I so wanna play as Ike, Hector, Alm, Black Knight, and Berkut in a sequel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoirCore Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Should we get a sequel, if the PR's word is to be believed, we might get (but not limited to) Binding Blade and Path of Radiance in the next game's story. That's a crossover I'd be down with, no matter how unpolished the plot is (as is normally the case with crossover fanservice games). :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neat, that actually makes this all the more impressive. Well the idea is, if we are to rejoice when the game reaches 1 million sales and only then(which isn't the case, I'm just saying), technically that hasn't happened yet, because not every copy that's been shipped has been sold. Buuuut if you add in digital sales, which should logically be relatively high on Switch, it feels pretty safe to say that if we haven't reached that threshold yet, we must be pretty close. And yeah there's also dlc to consider. It's a pretty big success no matter what. Edited April 26, 2018 by Cysx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erren Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 It took forever to get a million. Some games got it faster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But TBK is literally invulnerable to nearly everything, can teleport across the continent at will, fires shockwaves out of his sword, and is one of the most skilled swordsmen in his world. Plus, he's a lot more intelligent than the dimwitted Lu Bu. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Emblem is also the best choice for any crossover content for Dark Souls. Even if its just one or two weapons. Hell, even just some crossover content in other Nintendo games. Throw out someone from FE for the next Mario Kart or something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiral the Gamer Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 (edited) As much as I love Warriors and the characters they did choose, this is a good sign that we might get a chance to play as Ike, Micaiah, Eliwood, Hector, Sigurd and many others.

Also remember FE Warriors is still a spinoff. Not only that, but the only other FE games to pass 1 million were Awakening and Fates. Previously, 200K in Japan was an acceptable milestone for the franchise. Edited April 27, 2018 by VincentASM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonage2ftw Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I’m glad. Looks like the decision to focus on Fates, Awakening, and stinky ol’ SD paid off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
