Matrograde Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Hi, have been taking a break from Fire Emblem things but got the bug to come back recently (started doing them in order a few years ago, but only halfway through 5 at the moment). I own physical copies of all of the 3DS games, but I want to make sure I get all of the DLC before they close the eShop. Can folks who know please confirm some of the following so that I can make sure I don't miss anything? Fire Emblem Awakening: I read that I can purchase DLC after chapter 4 (although I saw one web site say chapter 5). I am working through these opening chapters now and skipping cutscenes, since I don't want to experience the story yet. I also see, however, after chapter 3 that there is this bonus box where I can download characters and items? I don't really want to get too deeply into this right now, since I'm not planning to play this for a while, but are these things we think will go away? Should I start a serious file and grab it all? Fire Emblem Fates Conquest: I understand that I can buy birthright and revelations without playing, but I read that there is additional DLC after chapter 6? The same questions as above as far as bonus box (if any). Fire Emblem Echoes: I have actually already played this game and bought all the DLC, but perhaps as a reference to anyone coming here with a similar question so they don't have to open a new thread. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alear Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 If by boxes, you mean packs containing multiple DLC content, you can buy them after chapter 6 at the Dragon's Gate in Fates. Personally, I wouldn't buy the DLC's because if you mod your 3ds with CIA, you can just download the DLCs for free (roms too if you don't have them) and play them with the physical cartridge. I can't give you any links because its against the forum's TOS it's pretty easy to find online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the advice though. At this point I'm just curious about the bonus box stuff in Awakening, whether I'll be able to get it after the eShop closes. It seems to be unrelated to the shop, so perhaps it won't go anywhere. To be clear, the bonus box is not the same thing as purchasing DLC bundles. It's free characters and items through the spotpass.

Ycine Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 Awakening You do have to complete Chapter 4 before gaining access to DLCs. DLC List and Pricing : https://serenesforest.net/awakening/miscellaneous/downloadable-content/north-america/ Spotpass : https://serenesforest.net/awakening/miscellaneous/spotpass/ Streetpass : https://serenesforest.net/awakening/miscellaneous/streetpass/ The stuff you'll find in the "Bonus Box" are : Bonus Team -> Allows you to fight past FE Heroes in special map. Winning will let you recruit the ennemy leader as a Einherjar. Bonus Items -> Gives you item. Simple as that. Bonus Maps -> Unlocks some Paralogue. Winning them will also let you recruit some special characters. Bonus Duels -> It's a special mode where you play with a friend battling ennemies to unlock items. I don't know if all of this will be gone but the possibility is quite high. Fire Emblem Fates DLCs List and Pricing : https://serenesforest.net/fire-emblem-fates/miscellaneous/downloadable-content/ Similarly to Awakening you have to complete Chapter 6 to access the DLCs. I don't remember if there's more than this for Fates. Bonus Box does exist but I don't remember it for anything more than the Friendly Visit / Friendly Duel stuff. Echoes DLCs List and Pricing : https://serenesforest.net/fire-emblem-echoes-shadows-valentia/miscellaneous/downloadable-content/ No SpotPass, StreetPass or Bonus Box here as far as I remember.

Captain Karnage Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I thought they already closed the eshop Not much I can really add to the conversation, though I will say that the Awakening DLC is the least important and the Fates DLC should be priority, while Echoes is pretty important to get but not essential.

I did manage to bought every Fire Emblem DLC Content in the Nintendo 3DS system before the announcement of the closure happened. I'm still getting the other stuff from the Nintendo 3DS & Wii U eShop before the closure on March 27th. I think my favorite of the DLC content in the Fire Emblem 3DS games has to be the Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia DLC are the Rise of the Deliverance content.
