Thane Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 11 minutes ago, Anacybele said: And I understand being hesitant because of poor sales, but seriously, neither game could possibly sell that bad now that FE is more known, more loved, and Ike just may be the most popular FE character. Also, throwing in a casual mode would probably help. I definitely agree. Not only would the series' new popularity help but people would react to Ike because of his prominence in the fandom and Super Smash series.

They're still fairly recent in the series, they were the last "big" FEs before Awakening. They were completely in 3D also, so they're still rather nice, especially on emulators. Emulators are technically illegal and are not official. I also don't think PoR's graphics have aged too well. The actual battles look okay, but the overworld map models look like N64 leftovers compared to other GC titles. In fact, this is where the theory that PoR was once the canceled N64 FE came from. RD does look pretty good though. And like I said, a remake isn't necessary, just a re-release. I realize FE4 and FE5 are much older and should be remade first. I'm just saying a re-release for right now should do. Quote I definitely agree.

I wonder how you go about favoriting units...maybe if you touch them enough times and talk to them? I noticed there's an empty heart (lol sad) next to some of the characters when you tap on them to talk, while for others the heart is pink and glowing? Perhaps you will get bonuses when you use allies that have glowing hearts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so I know we're on the same page, you mean these hearts, right? http://imgur.com/a/O6ZX1 I believe these ones can be created by just pressing a unit and pressing the favorite option (or something similar). People do it so they don't accidentally delete / feed those characters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is, even a re-release needs resources, and might steal the remake's sales later, so a direct remake is more profitable. A Virtual Console game may work though since it would be the same game emulated. Then, yes, it would be possible, since Nintendo already did this several times. It's not clear if emulators are legal or not, downloading one is OK, the ROM is legal if it is made from your game (that's why we can speak of emulators but cannot ask for ROMs).

Brand_Of_The_Exalt Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 My bad, I misunderstood you. I thought you wanted new games that would be identical to their originals. Sharing ROMS is illegal, but making yours from your physical copy isn't, that depends on the country. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of DO want actual remakes, but I understand that it's not the right time for them yet and that a simple re-release on VC is more warranted atm.

Definitely agree. That'd drop the prices too. Seriously, it's 500€ for a new copy (sealed) of PoR where I live. Got my copy of RD for 60€ years ago too, and the game was used.

Those are kind of similar I guess, though Heroes' are a grade or two... chibier? If that makes any sense. More simplistic with less detail, probably because they are smaller on screen (it seems) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintessence Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Yeah the heart thing is just to mark your Favorite units. It's just a means to lock them to not delete or feed them to other units, but iirc ut has no ingame effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebony Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 I think if I don't figure out another character to vote for, I might just votespam Micaiah the rest of the time. Either her or Lyn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C. Turtle Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Kind of a random thought, but how do you guys reckon Knives are going to be handled when Tellius characters make it into the game? To me, grouping them with Swords would make sense, and put them more in line with other Thieves in the series, but then Cipher instead treats them as 1-Range Hidden Weapons. I guess it kinda depends on if characters with the same attributes can still have different ranges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've already seen the purple/neutral Shuriken icon for hidden weapons in the game (I think on a generic enemy Thief IIRC), my guess is they'll be lumped into there.

Quintessence Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Actually we saw Saizo with a Shuriken icon. I think Sothe and Heather will be given Shuriken/Daggers becausw swords on them would make no sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moondrag Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 Hopefully this game's version of level capping and the like isn't the same as Phantom of the Kill. I took one look at those capping guides and my brain hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
