You can just pick up a retail copy of the game separately...if you have money to spare.
Limited Edition 3DSXL Fire Emblem Bundle for Europe - sometimes waiting a bit longer is worth it:
OMFG!! Is this real? WTF NoA???

Sure, I get that. Personally I loved it on the Wii and didn't really have a problem with the shake-to-roll controls. Would I have preferred a button? Sure, but I still demolished the game (160%) without it. I just don't feel the need to play through it again so soon. I just think an actually new DK game -- like, say, DKCR 2 on 3DS with a playable Dixie -- would have been more exciting.
Actually, now that I think on it, it they added Dixie to DKCR 3D, that would probably get me to buy it. She was always such a fun character to play in DKC 2 and 3.
NoA is "trash" simply because you didn't get the new system colors you want? Someone sounds dramatic. And entitled.

At least the NA/JP 3DS Fire Emblem system is custom colored, w/ more extensive decal art (center and corners)...not just a regular blue XL with a decal stuck in the middle lol

As someone who already owns a 3DS, I'd switch with you to get the name now...

I really hope that part of this "year of Luigi" means a green 3DS XL will happen.
In the meantime, a new Mario and Luigi game will more than suffice.

What the heck March?! So much stuff.
Got everything I wanted except Miiverse for 3DS.

I want this, an account system, and Bravely Default then I'm a happy camper.
Bravely Default is falling into Type-0 territory, fucking Square Enix >

No, BD is on a console that is alive, Type 0 was on PSP. Completely different.
I'm talking localization-wise. Other than that, yeah they're completely different.

Nintendo are killing it with these Direct events. More companies should take note of this (cough Vita Heaven cough).

Woah, Crashmo on sale already? I'm impressed! Definitely getting it.
This Nintendo Direct was amazing, imo. Luigi's Mansion looks FANTASTIC. Mario & Luigi: Dream Team looks FANTASTIC. The trailer for DKCR3D -- now on the eShop, under the Nintendo Direct tab -- looks incredible. Also interested in the new Dillon game, Kersploosh (or whatever it's called), the new Mario Golf and Minis on the Move. I already want HarmoKnight and Animal Crossing. The large-scale NSMBU DLC looks inspired. SO MUCH GOOD STUFF!

The Euro wait for Fire Emblem is unacceptable.
While watching the direct and they apologized but hopefully this makes up for it thing I thought 'oh lots of free DLC maybe?' then its just a FE system bundle.
Nice I already have a 3DS, also you limit my number of account transfers so......

Seems like I have to get a 3DS sometime soon. Would it be advised to import a US 3ds and use it with american eShop cards and a European charging devise? Or won't that work?
I'd like to get that free eShop game and because I would only buy digital, I'd get some good EUR - $ exchange rates.
Won't work obviously, if I could't use the US eShop from Europe.

Yup they delivered three time in a row for me (pokemon, wiiu one and 3ds one)
So can we agree that NoA sucks? The free game deal is way gimped compared to Europe, we're still stuck with the same two fucking colors (Pink/White isn't a full fledged release), zero bundles aside from a late ZombiU bundle and no MH bundle, regular 3DS FE bundle instead of an XL... I mean, what the fuck, why are they so incompetent.
Whatever, LM2, Mario & Luigi, and AC NL will be good games I guess. Just so fed up with NoA as of late.

WTF NOA?
We're not getting this either? For fuck's sake, Reggie, why won't you let me give you my money?

I'll give NoA a slight pass for now because we have a date for HarmoKnight as well as its demo. We also got Fire Emblem like two weeks ago. But we're not exactly on friendly terms right now.

Man the Monster Hunter and FE XLs look like crap. I'm glad I got the normal FE one, it's really pretty.
I'm from EU, but yeah it's really weird
Double dipping on Bit.Trip.Saga. I bought that game at full price and for $10 to have it digitally is the kind of impulse buy for me.
Although Nintendo's eshop will never be Steam they really need to have a permanent Deal of the Week like other consoles do. Not "Summers of sales" or "Press the Panic button and reduce prices on 3 games for a month" type sales. Even if its $2-$3 bucks off a $7 game, throw us a bone man.

I was talking about localizations too. Why shouldn't it come on US and EU 3DS this year? When Type 0 came out, PSP was absolutely dead both hardware and software wise. 3DS isn't.

So with Vita officially dead after this Nintendo Direct, I can safely say that HOLY FUCK, other than that super boring middle portion with those two lame dudes, Nintendo delivered so much with this Nintendo Direct.

Was there an actual release date for Harvest Moon GBC for 3DS VC? Or just that it's coming?
Sigh. While it's undoubtedly a very good list, I wish people would stop asking for 'a new zelda, mario, any other franchise' already. So much creative potential wasted on rehashing.

Well, guess I'm gonna just buy whatever 3DS XL is on the shelf for that promotion. Wish I had more colors to choose from :-(
WTF NOA?
Is that thing coming to Europe?
Same. I may go with the pink one if I can find it (hasn't been a problem so far) just because it's 'limited' and may have a better resale value when they inevitably release a black/white/grey system.
Only to Europe!

Depends on the target market. If they are targeting the otaku then it probably will go to PS3, but if they wanna grab the little girl audience 3DS is the place to go.
Plus, it's just fun to throw that out at every possible opportunity.
