I get the passing resemblance in the gameplay, but the content doesn't really seem to match up.

I'm sure it'll be a fine game at $20, but I feel like a lot of people picking it up at launch are going to feel Steel Diver'd.

But do we know what they demoed was the final build?

Seems a little close to release for them to hold back. I can't imagine that they wouldn't have featured more characters in the reveal trailer, if they had more of them to show.

The Fire Emblem Direct is starting now, incidentally.

Whoa! Fire Emblem Gaiden is getting a 3DS remake as Fire Emblem Echoes!

Couple of amiibos for the main characters, too.

Nintendo going hard on FE:

February 2017: FE Heroes (Android / iOS "soon")
May 2017: FE Echoes (3DS)
Fall 2017: FE Warriors (Switch/3DS)
2018: Mainline FE (Switch)

Heroes looked better than could be expected from a mobile game. The attack animations weren't so hot, but the overall style looks good and the character portraits by various artists looked pretty fantastic. We'll see how nefarious the IAP urging is.

(fast forward to 21:05 for the start of the presentation)

That anyone cares about Fire Emblem lore is inconceivable to me. I've played damn near all of them and can't name a character aside from Marth and Roy because Smash Bros and Donny (Donald?) because he had a bucket on his head.

They're disposable. The gameplay relies on their disposability.

yeah, its not awesome like shining force or Valkyrie chronicles.

Wonder what kind of traction they get with FE Heroes. People who bitched about F2P hooks bitched that Mario Run was $10, will they bitch about this too?

the answer is yes, Because Nintendo

How is it that 360 got VO:OT and PS3 ended up with goddamn reel-less Sega Bass Fishing? Criminal.
