Vicious Sal Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 First of all: Those people have nothing to do with company decisions. So don't call them stupid. I understand why you are frustrated, but there are other reasons for delays as well. One being the British English translation, which is handled seperately from the American English one (although they most likley communicate with each other during the process (maybe not, looking at Shadow Dragon)). The delay could be entirely the British team's fault, for all you know. Aside from that, there are games that were not translated. Take Pokémon Conquest as an example: It was released in Europe, but only in BeNeLux, Italy and Great Britian. Am I pissed because we never got it here? No, I am not. 2 months are really not much, so I really don't see why you are insulting other people because you think that it may could be their standard's fault that you get the game 2 months later. There were some Dutch translations for less text-heavy games as well, and I was not complaining that a possible delay could be their fault. So it's not even true that everything is kept in English. Maybe you just envy those that get the games in their native languages. I dunno. Edit: Oh, there is a reason for a collective release throughout Europe as well: Many, many Germans, French, or other European countries would import in a heartbeat (no region lock, mostly no customs because of EU) meaning that the sales of dedicated versions of the game would decline. Please refrain from using fallacies, that your did something one way concerning this topic doesn't mean I did/should do the same. Don't take everything so literal, take it with a grain of salt, I'm not really in a hurry to buy Awakening at all [as in, most likely won't even get it]. I really thought it was quite easy to see from the context that I was blaming Nintendo's country-specific branches, and not the entire country itself. If I would have blamed the entire country, would it also mean every person would buy the game? I'm sorry if I wasn't clear with my context, but I didn't really deem it necessary to name every single nintendo department. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Missile Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 The only thing who deserves blaming is that freakin' region lock :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaMonkey Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 (edited) One being the British English translation Actually most games released here in the UK still use the American English spellings...

domflo Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 The only thing who deserves blaming is that freakin' region lock :/ Amen to that, sir. Actually most games released here in the UK still use the American English spellings... Really? As in, Nintendo games? FE 7 and FE 11's are different from America's version though, pretty sure of that at least. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 10, 2012 Share Posted December 10, 2012 I remember reading that the Gameboy Color was called Gameboy color instead of colour in EU, is that true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marche Raotzer Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 (edited) I wonder will they release a limited edition FE 3DS XL? more than likealy a no but they may do the 3ds with the emblem one like they did with ocarina of time Edited December 13, 2012 by Hirokaski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fruity Insanity Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 Ah, if only that were true... I really want that 3DS... but would Nintendo release it? It is, after all, "outdated." XD Well, not really, but still... I have my doubts... (NoA, please release it...! I'm begging you...! Please!!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kon Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 Awakening is coming out on my birthday?! Why do I have to be poor and have no 3DS? ;-; Hopefully I can convince my mum to get it for me, 'cause regardless of whether or not I own a 3DS I'll be damned if I don't try to get the game ASAP.

Elinor Cross Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I pre-ordered this game the DAY its NA release date was announced XD Now I've been counting down the days on my blog and on Facebook (its annoying the hell out of my family but my friends think its hilarious) 55 days left :'3 Im hoping Gamestop will have a Pre-order bonus (there isnt mention of one yet but you never know). Im hoping for some decal for my 3DS XD (like the sticker kind they game me for my PSP when I got Kingdom Hearts Birth By Sleep) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I preorderd the game at gamestop a month or two ago, lol. (Sometime near when it first became available for preorder) A preorder bonus would be cool, but, eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Tactician Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 I preordered the game at Gamestop last month since I was really eager to preorder it. A preorder bonus would be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diortem Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 I preordered the game at Gamestop last month since I was really eager to preorder it. A preorder bonus would be awesome. It would indeed, even if Fire Emblem Pre-order bonuses would be a weird concept. What would they include? Dragonstones? Master/Change Seals? Official Art? At any rate, this is going to be quite nice. I would also love to see a Fire Emblem 3DS XL, even if that would take a miracle to happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marche Raotzer Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 It does suck for the UK but some who are impaitent (me) made the choice to import but then again im not trusting nintendo as first they said 2012 then i read june now its april it zelda twilight princess all over again so until i get a concrete release date like the USA im sticking to the weeb version of the game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 June was a placeholder by some game website, and I'm pretty sure it was a rumor. Don't blame them for everything :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame them for everything :p very valid point but they seem to not really care for more hardcore titles more for milking the mario franchise like micheal bay ruined transformers making it meer explosion and product licence fanservice so in truth unless its mario nintendo couldnt give a damn!

That's not really true to be honest. In Japan they cared enough about FE to give it its own 3DS its just that overseas FE isn't as popular. They do give Mario a lot of importance (he is their mascot after all), but they also give Zelda, Metroid, Kirby (somewhat there has been a influx of Kirby games lately), Pikmin, some more Nintendo only games I can't think of right now, and recently 3rd party games.

veetasoy Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) Idk how long it's been like this, but the fireemblemawakening.com site no longer redirects you to Nintendo.com and now has a tiny bit of info about Awakening. Nothing new though. Sorry looks like there's already a topic for it. Ignore me. Edited December 13, 2012 by Keilis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aura Of Twilight Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Hypothetically speaking, if Gamestop did announce a pre order bonus, would the people who'd pre order it before hand still get it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) Yes. I know I do, anyway. They generally give the bonus when you pick up the game. You could call and ask, just to be sure when/if a bonus is announced. Edited December 13, 2012 by L95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marche Raotzer Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) well preorder bonuses are usually something like a limited edition carry cases or a hard shell protector for the systm i would want to go for the hard shell casing makes my system look more awesome Edited December 14, 2012 by Hirokaski Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably keep it nice and safe unless they started going on sale XD) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
