Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) By the way, I did checked that trailer in the official site and it had Grendel as "Garrick" (which it had it in the European Nintendo Direct). That I have no idea why did they have that name on that site? Maybe they renamed him for some reason. Or it's NoE footage. huh...

VincentASM Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Grendel did seem like a weird name for a bandit boss IMO. Anyway, you shouldn't be surprised; this *is* supposed to be work in progress footage : P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domflo Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Even though the American team might go with Garrick after all, I seem to recall that that trailer is the one us Europeans got in the last Nintendo Direct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 (edited) It's the same as the American one, too. IIRC, before EU even got any footage. So It kinda looks like the reused it for the EU one...? Edited December 13, 2012 by L95 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Marth 64 Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Grendel did seem like a weird name for a bandit boss IMO. Anyway, you shouldn't be surprised; this *is* supposed to be work in progress footage : P Naw, I don't think Grendel is a wierd name, I think I like that name better and its kinda suits him. I think we should kinda wait and see if what Grendel's name will be as Grendel or Garrick on Feb. 4th, I did checked that the e-Shop on Fire Emblem: Awakening in October that they still have him as "Grendel" after they released the first Nintendo Direct Trailer.

Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Well, they aren't going to change a single video for a generic boss name change :p Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Rudy Mjölnir Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Just a theory but perhaps they changed his name because they will give the name Grendel to someone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 Maybe for a more important boss? (Or at least cooler and less generic...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veetasoy Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 On a side note, poor Masked Marth gets his face stamped with the fat Fire Emblem Awakening logo on the video preview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fruity Insanity Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 ihope they include some good info for us to get excited about You're not excited already? I thought the release date alone would make us all happy enough... I'm excited... And I'd still be excited even if they said absolutely nothing about the game... Maybe it's just me... XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marche Raotzer Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I will explode with happiness if the pre orders include the 3DS, or a US/UK exclusive variant... Esp. if they do it for Europe - then I don't have to import! I hope Siliconera gets on board soon! The more support the game gets, the better! @Hirokaski if theres a event for the game in the uk ill cosplay like i did for ocarina of time 3d Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nocturnal YL Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 They're transliterating the JP name back to English for a lot of localized names. I guess they wanted the names to be mostly consistent (with exceptions) with the JP ones while avoiding those "how to pronounce this" moment with all those foreign language-sounding names (Wyck --> Vaike being a good example). I wouldn't be surprised if certain names used in this site would be the same as the localized ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 There's not much new info, but Nintendo added a game page here. A "dark dragon"? Interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) Link doesn't work for me... It loads for a half second and then stops at a blank white page. I'll just dig to it from the main page, BRB Uhh. I can't even get the search page to load. The site just doesn't like me. What is it, a different little blurb? What's it say?

Dr. Rudy Mjölnir Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I think the site is having problems because I saw that info page the other day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There, you can all stop worrying Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veetasoy Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 ^ Actually, the word "selection" makes me worry even more. >_< Makes me wonder what they plan to choose to release for DLC. Hope we get all of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elinor Cross Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 That makes me worry to, actually. Just becouse they release it doesnt mean they wont edit it as well. For all we know we might get a lot of the DLC but we might not get some of the characters that some of the DLC gives you. (I mean, considering Roy, Leaf, and Cecile's games werent released in NA I wouldnt be surprised if we didnt get them. On the flip side I am sure we'll get Lyn and Ike since they are so popular here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hardin Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Alm's Blade was shown in the ND trailer, I'm sure the legacy characters will remain. After all, you can't do any DLC chapter without running into characters who have been in Japan only games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
