The DanMan Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2015/08/fire_emblem_fates_looks_set_to_be_a_single_release_in_the_west_according_to_amazon So... yeah. Fire Emblem Fates Notice "Please note that this game is the only version being released in this market segment. You will be able to choose which path you would like to follow within the game." Unless Amazon UK is just screwing around, but highly unlikely. (The article is misleading, whether intentional or not; dual releases were already confirmed for NA) Edited August 10, 2015 by The DanMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) So they will only get special version? And now I think about, how and when Fate was annouced for Europe? Edited August 8, 2015 by Water Mage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capmalachi Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Wouldn't be the first time amazon messed up so, while the notice is odd if it's a mistake, I'm going to wait for confirmation. I do hope it's true though, even if we don't get a discount as the article implies I just much prefer physical copies over digital ones.

Soapbar Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Please let this be true for both NOE and NOA Just for once I want to screw Japan over when it comes to game realeases instead of the other way around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrightBow Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) Well, this is strange. I am of course aware that previous to release, Amazon product information is not a good indicator for anything since it's likely a placeholder. But if they are literally writing a line like this... I really don't see how this could happen accidentally, considering it only makes sense when we are talking about this very specific product.

Azz Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Oh please God let this be true.I am getting the Special Edition any ways, but it would be nice if they just released one version rather then two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The DanMan Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 If this is true, I'm hoping it causes enough of an uproar to make NOA do a 180. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageOfAnys Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 If this is true, it better happen for both the NA and EU releases... does anyone know if this line was ever there before or if this line just appeared? Because if it just appeared recently, that would be a little suspicious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twylis Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 It may just be akin to the digital release and permanently lock you into whichever path you pick, given the wording. Also I'm pretty sure that it was already confirmed that NoA's doing two versions; why else would the Treehouse have localised the titles Birthright and Conquest the article is very misleading with its usage of the term "the west" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Would be very hype if this was legit, but until a more credible source backs this claim up I'll hold my excitement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well edit the OP. EDIT: And if you're wondering, I'm "CrazedCavalier" in the comments. Edited August 8, 2015 by The DanMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if that's the case, I would say it sounds easier to just release both versions instead of facing the publicity damage that would inevitably be caused by on-disc-dlc of such epic proportions.

The DanMan Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) As others have said, this may not be all it's made out to be; both paths could already be on-cart and choosing one locks you out of the other.

Medeus Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 (edited) I'm going to take the skeptical route and say I'll believe it when I see it, Amazon pre-order listings do change and this could be an example where they're not updating the page until they know what the deal is with the game. Plus, we don't know how the single cartridge game would be handled in this case as it could be on-disc DLC as suggested.

kingddd Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 This earnings forecast report also show in page 4 of Europe having only one version currently. http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ir/pdf/2015/150729_2e.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Azz Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Ooo thanks for sharing.I am quite happy with this info.TBH as long as we get one cartage I will be fine.I honestly don't care if it is like the digital version I don't care, aslong as I save money.

BluCommander Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Although we don't know for certain if Europe will get 1 game yet, this is very interesting. It's strange that they would do that for Europe and not the US, and I don't really see the reasoning behind it, but whatever. It's good for them if this is the case, I just find it strange. I'll be waiting for more information nonetheless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Water Mage Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Guess Europe is the lucky one for once. To be fair, the video game industry is always making things hard for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
