why still use the old, placeholder name for the thread title?

That isn't the game name.
I hope NA gets something similar. I just need that awesome music on CD and an artbook.

I don't understand how it's related to SMT OR FE, to be honest...

I guess with the early DLC costume it's more related than it was before

This game confuses me.
At least the dudes get swimsuits too.
At least the dudes get swimsuits too.
At this point its more a mechanical derivative of both than it is anything else.

Do a lot of games get Wii U bundles in Japan, or is Nintendo making a big push for it in that region?
most of 1st big party games get some sort of bundle. and since this if fire emblem its not surprising.
The title kind of becomes "sharp fortissimo," which is pretty good.
'Sharp' is in the title of the game.
Isn't that the whole theme? And the title?

Besides Atlus's involvement and the use of some of the characters it never really was meant to be a straight crossover. I'm pretty sure it started that way on paper but the project evolved into what we see now. It's not really a bad thing it just happens like that sometimes.
Of course. Just, I wasn't expcting the Special Edition to be called Fortissimo, for...I don't know what reason. Actually, I wasn't expecting a special edition like this for the game anyway. Of course, it fits the whole game's theme.
Hopefully, more footage comes out soon.
I genuinely thought that was a hashtag the whole time, this makes so much more sense.

This is gonna sell gangbusters (for a Wii U title, at least) in Japan.
But the game will sell billions, so it needs a special edition.
Not really. ff is the denomination of fortissimo in music. It's just fortissimo because music notes in title, #FE.

It's "Atlus's take on Fire Emblem" (their wording).
The Atlus elements are very obvious (Catherine-esque cell phones, Persona-style summons, SMT dungeons), and they've said the FE stuff would become more apparent as we play it. Wait and see I guess?

Imagine the meltdowns if this gets better reception than Persona 5...

Wait, what? I was just referring to the "#" symbol for "Sharp" and it followed by "Fortissimo."

So much want.
Sorry it's late and I'm tired.
I thought you meant that the #FE was (#)Sharp, (FE) Fortissimo. And I was just saying that in music f is forte, ff is fortissimo, fff is fortississimo.
When written on a page, it would be F# or like this.

I see A SMT4, Devil Survivor 2 and Persona Q costume. It checks out.
Heh, well I didn't know that anyways, so it's interesting to know.
There's also the fact that it's like "#Fire Emblem Fortissimo Edition." FEFE.
Basically, it seems like it follows the themes of Persona, has the otherworldly invasion angle from SMT proper (although not the apocalyptic part of that), and sort of the setpieces and characters from Fire Emblem.
Mechanically, it seems to be mostly SMT but with character classes and the weapon triangle from Fire Emblem.
I'm just going to link the analysis / speculation thread in case anyone wants to read it.
Walter from SMTIV, Hibiki from Devil Summoner 2, Rei from Persona Q, Princess costume EO3, then swimsuits, maid, santa, etc.
