Kamui-of-Nohr Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 What are the chances we will see translated English text for this game at E3? And another question, how come Nintendo doesn't bother translating the text in the trailers shown in NA/EU directs so far? I guess I can understand since some text include names which may not be in the final game but didn't later Awakening trailers had translated text that never made it into the final game?

Ambulz Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 It'd certainly be a treat of we were to get English footage, but I definitely will not count on it. I'mma boy a good 'lil boy and wait these next six months out in patience. ... I got this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'mma boy a good 'lil boy and wait these next six months out in patience. ... I got this. I can read Japanese quite well but I was just curious why Nintendo themselves won't do it and leaving it to the fans to do it.. They can't expect everyone to know what's completely going. Then again, there is Bill Trinen to explain the big picture. Edited June 3, 2015 by Kamui-of-Nohr Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carter Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Six months is so painful, especially now that I'm a bigger fan of Fire Emblem than I was before. I didn't even experience waiting for Awakening, because I'd only noticed it after it was released... (besides FE8, Awakening is what helped boost my interest). I REALLY hope they have English text at E3. It'll get me excited, and hopeful for an earlier release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I doubt there'll be English text. I could be wrong, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodperson707 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Honestly waiting 6-18 months is not that bad for me, It was around 5-6 Years between non remake Fire Emblems (Radiant Dawn 2007-2008 awakening 2012-13) i can handle this amount of waiting. If i survied that amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirokan Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Patience is a thing you eventually gain in this fandom. xD Though back during 6-7-8-9 fans (in Japan, anyway) didn't really have to wait too long between each one : ) Anyway, I think the reason they don't change text up is because at this point in the process things are still going through change (setting/character names, etc) and so don't want to show one thing only to rename and change it up later and such. Combine this with the likely short-term schedule for a direct and I guess that would be why. I am not counting on much Fire Emblem news at E3, but if there is then that would be nice. If not, no loss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VincentASM Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I doubt there'll be English text by the time of E3, but I guess there's a small chance. Also, I don't recall Nintendo of America/Europe releasing any Awakening trailers with English text until the game was close to release. Sure you aren't remembering wrong? o__o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyPearl Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I kind of doubt there will be English text, but hopefully ! I'm so use to Pokemon ( when the game comes out at the same time, even tho some countries get it before bc of time zones ) it's painful waiting for Fire Emblem if..;-; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squkyshoes Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I would at least expect some kind of official release date during E3. Something like "Spring 2016" would be the bare minimum, but if they really want to get ambitious they could release an actual calendar release date.

Tsunami922 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 It's one of the things I'm hoping to see this E3, but I don't think we will see anything yet. That being said, I'd love to be proven wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrosion Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 2016 is soooo far so i dont know if theyre going to actually have English text yet but if they do I'd really appreciate some confirmed English names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Rudy Mjølnir Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 At best they will just have the localized names of Kamui, Aqua and the royal family members with a localized title. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentinel07 Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Hopefully at least they confirm a title since they keep calling it "New Fire Emblem". Makes me wonder if they'll even keep the If name. At least, it would be nice to have some things. If translation was well underway, it would at least bode well for an Early 2016 release.

Dunno why but it would. Oh lordy not Holiday 2016 either. Please be Q1 2016 or else I'll go batty from lack of games that interest me coming out. (Unless if Bravely Second came out first, which would sate my appetite for a bit...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRTJR Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I'm in the I don't expect there to be english text and if there is then I'll be pleasantly surprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geek Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Probably not, but I agree with others that I'd like a more specified release date. Maybe not an exact day but some idea, like "February 2016". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRSxIgnition Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 I'd be fine with an official English Title. I'd be happiest with it keeping the "if" moniker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ambulz Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Speaking of, have we even had confirmation on whether or not the game is getting the version split overseas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 We don't know that yet either. (fingers crossed for no...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambulz Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 So at the very least, there's also that to know. I get the feeling that we're gonna hear about that before anything else, if they decide to talk about the game at E3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Book of Ereshkigal Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 The split version thing would be a pretty big thing to talk about that. I imagine that news would come with the name, as each version needs to be named differently anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Archsage Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 They'll probably change the name only slightly, to Fire Emblem: What if? simply because leaving it as just If is a tad bit confusing. What if? is more likely simply because it's a common question for events. What if it went this way. What if it went that way. Just the word If doesn't actually convey that. And I can't see any reason why they wouldn't keep the different versions. So long as the version I don't buy is DLC right off the bat, I'll be happy.
