Link to the direct first, it's not terribly long I'd say it's worth a watch, but I'll describe it for those too busy.
http://www.nintendo.com/nintendo-... So I'd say this direct was pretty huge (If you're an FE fan) I don't think anybody could've asked for more. Sorry if I'm long winded there was a lot cover and I tend to ramble.
The first thing shown was Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia for the 3DS. It's based on the second game in the series, but I'm hesitant to say it's a remake of Fire Emblem Gaiden on the Famicom because it's a complete overhaul with new features. Everything that made Gaiden different from Fire Emblem 1 is intact, and they upped the dungeon crawling sections to open 3D exploration. They also announced Amiibo support, and Amiibos of the main characters Alm and Celica at the very end. It'll be out in late May this year.
The next part was a continuation of the Switch reveal for Fire Emblem Warriors. If you're familiar with the Koei/Tecmo Warriors games there wasn't anything revolutionary just the typical hack and slash. The one thing they didn't say at the Switch reveal though was it's going to be a multiplat and be on the 3DS as well. Seems like a bad plan for selling the Switch, but who am I to judge? (I think it's out in September?)
This one was out of left field but they followed that with an announcement for Fire Emblem on the Switch. Not sure why they didn't mention it in the other Switch presentation, but it's slated for a 2018 release with no other information outside of that. I assume it's a game in the main series. My hope is either a sequel to Awakening or the Radiance games if not that then something totally new. Who knows it could even be another Echoes game based on Seisen no Keifu or Thracia 776 after Valentia, but this is Nintendo so who knows?
Last, but probably not least, is the new mobile game for ios and Android Fire Emblem Heroes. Coming out February 2nd it's a brand new game with an original story line and characters. Catering to the mobile platform the boards are much smaller (I think it was 5 tiles by 8 tiles?) As a summoner you assemble a team of characters that come from all throughout Fire Emblem history by using orbs won in battle, or by beating the character on a map. It is "freemium" so if you want to pay real money and buy more orbs you can, but you don't have to. The game actually looks fairly promising it has a lot going for it between story, missions, training, team building etc. so I'm pretty excited to try it out.
With that the presentation comes to a close. I have to say I was impressed everything looked pretty solid Nintendo seems to be going all in with Fire Emblem and I have no problem with that. Anybody else excited? Thoughts on the presentation? Speculation? Conversation? (I'm bored over here)
