escotanner Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 So, I just read somewhere that Fire emblem heroes will be released at 7 am in Japan on February 2nd. This could mean either two things: we're getting Heroes on Wednesday or we're getting it later on in the day on Thursday. What do you guys think?

SatsumaFSoysoy Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Since they're saying 2/2 on the English site, I imagine they would delay the international version. If so, by the time the English version is out, the .apk for Japanese Heroes would probably be available somewhere on the Internet as well. So Android users and Jailbreak iOS users could take their pick I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nordopolica Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 The wording of the email received by a Redditor (which I assume is where you're getting your information, indirectly or directly) seems to indicate that the English version, too, will be releasing at 7am Japan time on 2/2/17. For reference, here. Since it'll be about 9am on the 2nd where I live, I'm guessing a simultaneous or very close to simultaneous release is imminent.

Roflolxp54 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 About 7 AM on 2/2 in let's say, Tokyo... that makes it... about 5 PM on 2/1 at the American East Coast assuming simultaneous worldwide release. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since the game is not available in my country, it is free to download somewhere else and is not a rom or an iso. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flare9 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) FYI on the appstore all release happen at 12 am local time i dont think it is possible to release at a specific time i think all apple users will get it at 12 am on 2nd their local appstore time Edited January 31, 2017 by flare9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Thunderblade Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I assume the local release times will be the ones shown in the table above? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flare9 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 I think you are not allowed to release an ios app except at 12 am local time so for apple everyone should get it their time unless nintendo managed a special exception Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mewyeon Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 It's officially launch time in Japan, though the app has not appeared on the app store. So...no simultaneous international release. I'm thinking that in the States we can only get it at midnight tonight if they're still planning to release on 2/2 and not technically 2/3.

moxis Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 @PowerVZ it seems we share a timezone lol.. let's hope we just have to wait one hour more!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
escotanner Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 If it's a midnight release, I'll have less than 7 hours to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eecaruz Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I'm on the japanese version of app store and I can't seem to find the game... I live in Europe however, so does that mean I have to wait until midnight for the Japanese app store update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVman00 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 I was waiting for 5pm here. If it comes out at your midnight it would come out at 6 here, which seems odd. I have no idea when they could release it, since if they release it your midnight, it they would have only appeared to have delayed it an hour for the international release, which seems odd. If they don't release it in an hour they would not release it in time for your Feb. 2, which is also odd. My guess is that it has been delayed by a couple minutes (or maybe that's me hoping). Has anyone confirmed that it has been released in Japan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no, we're not saying it will be realeased internationally in an hour, we're saying that it will be realeased individually country by country. No international simultaneous release. No idea if it's already out in Japan, I looked around a bit but found nothing. Edited February 1, 2017 by moxis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
