Where's the FE3 remake?

Give it some time. ;P

[Metroidvania]

Woot.

So probably hopefully an E3 announcement, then?

[Ammish]

I partially retract my smart alecky comment. :( (partially because of Chrono Trigger Nyah Nyah)

Oh but we have the DS version. Do you have a portable version of Terranigma?

[hardcastlemccormick]

Did people really think this wasn't coming to NA?

I assume the worst when it comes to NOA. I like being wrong.

[Dr.Palutena]

Spirit Camera was probably cheap as hell to localize. Still I wonder if it really was worth the cost since Nintendo had to also print AR booklets.

I'd have thought the potential lack of sales along with the aforementioned booklets would override the cheapness of publishing it. But suffice to say i still think it's indicative of not Nintendo not being too keen on rejecting things for localization at the moment in the 3ds's life.

Why you got be such a devil's advocate Poyunch!? I miss PounchEnvy he knew how to be less of a killjoy :p.

[sixteen-bit]

Cool beans

Oh there's no doubt that this game is coming to NA but Nintendo's domain registrations don't usually mean anything. :p

I killed PounchEnvy and stole his identity.










Or maybe I'm a Cadmus clone...

[BassForever]

Still not going to get excited until I see actual English footage released from NoA. I'm still hurting over the fact we never got New Heroes of Light and Darkness :(

[mt1200]

Meh. You still haven't got Terranigma officially.

:( That hurt man

[YuriLowell]

I wont get excited........... :(

[axisofweevils]

NA will get it, but if Pikmin 2 is anything to go by, you'll get it in 2015. :D

[wrowa]

A domain means absolutely nothing. Even if Nintendo doesn't plan to bring the game over, they won't want that someone else registers the domain of their game.

Nevertheless, I'm certain that Awakening will also be released in the US.

Spirit Camera was probably cheap as hell to localize. Still I wonder if it really was worth the cost since Nintendo had to also print AR booklets.

Fire Emblem would be cheap as hell to localize too -- after all it's already confirmed for Europe, so NoE is going to translate it regardless.

[IntelliHeath]

Well, I don't see why we have to competing for who didn't get the games. Plus, I really like Terranigma itself tho.

[Chet Rippo]

My letter worked!

[EvilMario]

My letter worked!

You've saved us, Chet.

[Cactus]

For those saying that registering the domain means nothing, what percentage of registered domains for first-party games end up not being used due to a decision to drop the localization? My guess is not very many.

I realize that such an action by Nintendo doesn't confirm any intent to localize, but it's definitely a good sign.

[Poyunch]

Fire Emblem would be cheap as hell to localize too -- after all it's already confirmed for Europe, so NoE is going to translate it regardless.

There might be some licensing issues but I really doubt anything conflicting would be present. If NoA were to just use EU's English localization I hope there's not too much British English slang.

I'm looking at you, "Square-tache".

My letter worked!

Your name deserves to be on the "Special Thanks" of the end credits.

[SaintMadeOfPlaster]

Since when did a domain registration mean anything? There are countless examples of domain registrations that didn't lead to anything.

[Crewnh]

The flavoured dialogue in Xenoblade is great though.

Like what's the problem with square tache? Dude has a square mustache.

[IntelliHeath]

Like many peoples' letters, but I suggest to wait for NoA to confirm it before we get too exciting for nothing.

[Poyunch]

Well in the States it's usually abbreviated as "stache". I just wanted to make a localization joke more than anything. It doesn't bother me that much ...anymore. :P

[Dr.Palutena]

Well in the States it's usually abbreviated as "stache".

Personally I think the britishness adds a unexpected charm to Xenoblade.

[bobbychalkers]

Now I can stop pretending not to care about the game.

[Poyunch]

Personally I think the britishness adds a unexpected charm to Xenoblade.

I don't know why it bothered me so much before. There have been other British-y things I've enjoyed.

[mjemirzian]

Good news, but the region lock still sucks.

[Dragonzord]

Don't know why people thought we wouldn't get it. It's the Wii where NoA is incompetent.

[IntelliHeath]

Last Window, Fire Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow and Mother 3?

[ShockingAlberto]

This is almost certainly an NCL-mandated title, especially considering how well it is apparently doing.

I doubt the decision is in NOA's hands at all, except for when to release it.

The 3DS in the west can't really afford to turn down retail games. M3DL and MK7 helped it sell really well over the last few months, but most of that Japanese support won't be coming to America until summer.

[Crewnh]

Don't know why people thought we wouldn't get it. It's the Wii where NoA is incompetent.

I'm sorry, did Heroes of Light and Shadow get localized while I wasn't looking?

[Agent Unknown]

Oh but we have the DS version. Do you have a portable version of Terranigma?

[Anteo]

Now NOA confirm the awesome FE 3ds edition please.

[Aeana]

I hope it leads to the game being released.


I need to get a Japanese 3DS. :\

[Dragonzord]

I'm sorry, did Heroes of Light and Shadow get localized while I wasn't looking?

No, the remake did not, but the proper entry, Shadow Dragon did. As will this proper entry.

[Aeana]

No, the remake did not, but the proper entry, Shadow Dragon did. As will this proper entry.

But Shadow Dragon is a remake.

[Poyunch]

Last Window, Fire Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow and Mother 3?

People should stop mentioning Mother 3. That was an issue of licensing and not NoA's laziness.

[ShockingAlberto]

I'm sorry, did Heroes of Light and Shadow get localized while I wasn't looking?

It got fucked on timing and the failure to do well in Japan. Considering these aren't really factors with Awakening...

[IntelliHeath]

No, the remake did not, but the proper entry, Shadow Dragon did. As will this proper entry.

It don't make sense anyway. Plus The Last Window?

People should stop mentioning Mother 3. That was an issue of licensing and not NoA's laziness.

What Licensing issues?

[Dr.Palutena]

I'm sorry, did Heroes of Light and Shadow get localized while I wasn't looking?

I'm sorry, I wasn't aware this was a remake to a game that was never released outside of japan and for the ds in the year said system was being replace with its successor.

[botty]

If NOA is smart, they'll release this game in 2013.

[Dragonzord]

It don't make sense anyway. Plus The Last Window? What Licensing issues?

Fire Emblem characters appear in Smash Bros. People know who they are. There's no reason for Nintendo not to put out the game. Last Window is more of a risk.

[ffdgh]

It don't make sense anyway. Plus The Last Window? What Licensing issues?

certain musical themes within the game

[ShockingAlberto]

While Mother 3 initially not coming here is something that probably could have been worked around, the fan translation has basically ensured it is never a possibility in the future.

I don't want that to deter people from making fan translations (I'm anxiously awaiting one for AAI2, if it ever comes), but the possibility of an english re-release somewhere down the line went from slim to none.

[Poyunch]

What Licensing issues?

Stuff having to do with the music. Imagine if they replaced the music that was causing issues. That would be terrible.

[Nekki]

hyyyyyyyyypeeeee

[Dragonzord]

Stuff having to do with the music. Imagine if they replaced the music that was causing issues. That would be terrible.

people would bitch about that as much as they do about the game not coming out over here.

[TheFLYINGManga_Ka]

This is a good sign. I always had a stronger feeling that this will be localized compared to the feeling I had with XenoBlade only because Nintendo doesn't dominate the casual market anymore.

So what Nintendo said about re-focusing on its core fans is coming true. We need something like this.

[TheCongressman1]

I posted this at Wii U speculation thread, but I thought why not post it here as well.

Another domain name someone tipped to me at Twitter. NintendoAllAccess.com Interesting... Something to do with Nintendo's new online functions, perhaps?

[Chet Rippo]

Like many peoples' letters, but I suggest to wait for NoA to confirm it before we get too exciting for nothing.

Don't take this away from me...

[IntelliHeath]

Erm, I have heard of that but that was for Earthbound(Mother 2) itself. I never heard of anything that would associate to Mother 3 unless I overlook the articles.
