  1. the ESRB is kind of more uptight than the MPAA for lower ratings. remember when Sonic '06 was considered E10+ and not just E and the franchise has stayed 10+ ever since even though it's just effing Sonic? putting blood in FE would definitely make it T

    Isn't Awakening already T though?

  2. I know what you mean. I got lucky and ordered one off of Amazon from a trusted third party granted with expedited shipping it was like $25 so double the normal price and I'll be getting it sometime late this week or beginning of next. I figured that Nintendo probably underproduced the Marth one and since alot of people play as him in smash bros it sold like hotcakes and now there is a shortage. I would keep checking Amazon just expect to pay around 26-35 USD for one including shipping.

    Edit: Just checked amazon. Its backordered until November 25th but you can reserve it now to get it directly from Amazon for around the normal price.

  3. I think its pretty safe to say that Priam is a direct decendant of Ike. There are way too many similarities. First shares his love of meat based food, obsessed with training, blue hair (Mist has brown and Boyd has green), and the biggest killer is that he has Ragnell the sword Ike brought with him when he left on his journey after Radiant Dawn. So unless Mist somehow found Ike, took Ragnell, and had a blue haired kid with Boyd I don't see how he's not a direct descendant.

  4. Could someone please explain to me why Marth is commonly shipped with Ike on the internet? I get that they were in SSBB together, but Marth was with Roy in melee, and now there's Robin and Lucina as well. Marth and Ike have little in common and neither one is gay, but people still ship them. Just to be clear, I'm not stating any opinion on the shipping of these two characters other than confusion.

    Because its the internet and with the existance of many people's imagination gathered in one place...well lets just say there's a place for that. I don't really see Ike really having any romantic relations with any character in the games to me they just didn't seem to hint at that much unlike some things *cough* (Sumia and Chrom in Awakening).

  5. Fire Emblem depicts fantasy battle. By that I don't mean the dragons and magic but by the general style of it. Everyone looks super cool. They jump ten meters in the sky. Wind will cause Chrom's cloak to billow even if he's inside. People take arrows to the knee and don't go down because they still have HP. Astra strikes five times and still the character can counter attack. I think blood would ruin that image. If you stick a sword through someone and they start bleeding, being able to instantly counter attack and kill their foe would just break suspension of disbelief.

    Yeah that's a good point. I didn't think of that. It would look kinda silly to have someone gushing blood after five strikes only to then counter attack. If they put it in the cutscenes like if a major character dies it could still be effective. Either way FE is good enough without it but if they add it in i'm sure it'll be fine.

  6. You know come to think of it having an anime or series of anime shorts that aired on TV could be a good way for some of their lesser known franchises to get noticed. Fire Emblem and Kid Icarus could benefit from this and alot of the work is already done in terms of voice acting, style, presentation.

  7. I main Ike and sometimes Robin trying to learn Lucina as well. Yeah Ike players are pretty rare one thing i notice is that it seems like very few use his grabs and pummels which is a shame because his down grab and back grab give some good opportunities and his pummel gets about 3% per hit which is decent. Something else I notice is that dodging then using his jab combo seems to always catch people off guard since they don't expect a quick move and the last hit has decent knockback. I almost never use his forward smash while it is awesome its easy to read and dodge and get punished badly his up smash is far better since it has a huge hitbox and covers all sides. Something else i noticed is when falling if you use counter you will almost always land a hit with someone trying to juggle you and eruption sometimes can get a good hit in this way if timed right but its really risky. And yeah the thing about projectiles is absolutely true I got beat bad by a Duck Hunt player of all people.
