35th anniversary discussion


Recommended Posts

What do you think IS and Nintendo might do for Fire Emblem's 35th anniversary? Personally, I think they might release the rumored FE4 remake next year, along with a new celebration event for Heroes.

I can see them making the FE4 Echoes, but overall I would put money on another localization and Warriors 3. I just get a strong feeling that we haven't seen the end for either of those

Hopefully, nothing.

This isn't to say that I hope that there won't be any new Fire Emblem in 2025, but I hope that whatever there is will be part of the natural release cycle that'll we'll get because it's ready and not specifically part of a marketing-led anniversary event. Anniversary events generally end up with either dubious quality tat, limited-edition false-scarcity FOMO nonsense, or deliberately slowed down releases to coincide with the event. I'd much rather they just make games, take the time they need to make them good, and release them when they're ready.

FE4 remake is the most obvious guess, but part of me is hoping for Path of Radiance to get the Metroid Prime Remastered treatment. I remember he who shall not be named mentioned a PoR remaster would be coming, and that was years ago now (and was probably never true to begin with), but it's stuck with me ever since and I can't get that hope out of my head.

I want a FE4 remake a well, don't particularly care about official localizations but I think they'll probably do one as well. Wonder if they'd make both an official localization for FE4 and a remake at the same time or if that'd be a dumb maketing move, cause if It's the latter then they'd suck more money out of us if they made a remake for a game that has already been localized along with a FE4 localization this year, and leave the FE4 remake for later (but please don't do this I$, I really want this FE4 remake...).

 Also, something I always wanted was another OVA like that old one (I didn't even watch the old one yet but that's not the point). I think they don't do a lot of these stand alone OVA movies for videogames anymore, this was probably more of a 90s thing, but I'll keep on wanting it to be made, specially with videogame movies on the rise (although most of these are live action ones) I got some maybe delusional hope about 2D (or 3D, even, whatever) videogames movies can maybe come back.

 Stuff like those artbooks/anniversary books, cool new merch and cool anniversary arts are always welcome too.

Every year is some kind of anniversary. They just released Engage in honor of the series' 33rd anniversary, so let's give IS time to cook.

I'm hoping we finally get that rumored FE 4 remake, and maybe a localized version of FE 2 and 4 like they did for FE 1.

I'd love to see an FE4 remake! Can't wait for IS to honor the 29th anniversary of Genealogy of the Holy War with a bang.

Negative as I am towards Heroes, I do feel that its success legitimately opens the door to a Fire Emblem anime series being commercially viable. As a limited run on ome of the many streaming platforms. Whether it'll actually be anything worth watching... yeah, I'm not holding my breath.

Engage was meant to be the 30th anniversary title and they were three years late on that, so I'm not expecting much. But, if I'm allowed to dream. The traditional gift for 35th anniversaries is...Coral...huh...well, give me Pirate Emblem then!

To be fair, if it wasn't for the pandemic, it may have come out in 2020 in time for the 30th anniversary as originally planned.

Anyway, what I'd hope for the 35th anniversary... hmm... I can only hope the botched way the 30th one came out for didn't sour them on trying to do more anniversary stuff.

Pfft. Pirate Emblem? Nah. Give me Mermaid Emblem! There's a lot you could do with a fully underwater setting.

If the final boss ain't a giant octopus witch, we riot. Poor unfortunate souls...

Yeah, It's better that they were 3 years late than if they had held it purpously for two more years just to release in on an anniversary that is a multiple of 5.

Well, they still did a two year delay in a way. Game was finished in 2021, but then withheld it because of Three Hopes.
