Fire Emblem Awakening release

[QUOTE="Legolas_Katarn"]Was able to get mine along with my artbook. One of the first lines, "let's kill this dastard...." They really need to stop doing that. Please don't have any "moldy onions" in this game. I'm missing the fan translation of Fire Emblem 4 already.Meinhard1

[QUOTE="Meinhard1"] Well, the reviews have said spoken highly of the game's localization, so hopefully this error is anomalous.darkspineslayer

This sums it up nicely

It's not an error, it's just stupidity. Ever since Fire Emblem 9 or 10 they started to spell bastard as dastard and to replace any other kind of swears with phrases like "moldy onions" to replace damn. The more sensible thing would be to just write a script without any kind of swearing.

Well that dumb. I pretty sure I heard Sully say damn a couple times through.

She said *astard in the demo I am pretty sure.

Yes!  I got it!  Art book too!

People should really just wait. lol 

Anyways, why is there still no gay marriage in Fire Emblem?  It is 2013, come on.

My local Gamestops, Targets, and Best Buys do not have it yet. I shall check again on Friday.

I could download it now, but I hate how it's tied to the 3DS and its cartridge art makes me want the physical copy.

It's so simple yet amazing.

Anyone know how to use a Reeking Box? I want to grind the last few levels on my cavilears before I promote them, without doing the download map 30 times.darkspineslayer

On the map, press X, go to inventory, and then use it. You can even activate it from the convoy.

Ike and Soren were close.Legolas_Katarn

I am trying to get those games still so I wouldn't know. >.>

*sigh* Never play Advance Wars before Fire Emblem.  You really are not used to perma-death.

My play time is at 23:59. 

 So in the three days I've had it, I've spent almost exactly a third of my time playing it. :shock: 

No regrets. :P

My god, I've been playing it almost non-stop and I'm only at 18:46 0_0 though with resets I'm fairly sure it's really been another several hours. What chapter are you on pixel?darkspineslayer

Only several hours?  I restart like crazy as soon as someone dies.  They keep on getting critical hits!!!!!!!!!!

Just got mines yesterday from gamestop, they told me that they've received their first shipment and the next shipment will be tomorrow. 

Finally got my hands on fire emblem yesterday and havent gotten a chance to check it out.  Probably gonna try it tonight, cant wait :)

I think I was on chapter 15. 

Anyways, I got my first street pass hit! :D 

Still waiting for my copy... :(

Last night, I got a e-mail from cduniverse, my copy of FEA is being shiped, can't wait.

I walked to 7 stores during this blizzard, each one claiming that they have copies, and coming out empty-handed because they either ran out or only had downloadable codes. It was the last store that finally told me that they'll have more copies by the end of the month.

Is it worth the download? I feel like cancelling my pre-order and downloading it, but I would much rather have the physical copy knowing that it's not tied to my 3DS and I won't loose it if anything happens to my handheld.

I hope Nintendo is aware of these delays.

^^^^^ Bro, just get the physical copy.

If anyone lives in the SF Bay Area, specifically around Fremont I have an extra copy I don't need.

Got my copy of the game a couple days ago along with a copy of Ni No Kuni. Never played a Fire Emblem title until now but I've gotta say that this is a fantastic time, so much fun.

I think I made the right decision for me. Buying retail games from the eShop is a really unappealing prospect, but I obviously got a lot of playtime with it over my three day weekend as planned. I probably would have spent a lot of that time sulking over my lack of Fire Emblem anyways. :P 

Since you've held out this long already, I would try to hold out for a physical copy... More and more people seem to be getting their hands on them now. Still, this whole situation sucks. Good luck with whatever you decide to do. Either way, it will have been worth the wait, I promise! I haven't finished it yet, but I'm thinking this is my favorite in the series. 

Thanks for the replies.

I've decided to play past FE games and familiarize myself with the important characters (Naga?) while I wait for my copy to arrive. The wait is killing me though. :P

I wonder what caused this massive delay...

It seems like this is sold out everywhere in my area. I wasn't planning on getting it right away but after hearing all the positive reviews from critics and people here, I thought I would check it out. Seems like i'm too late though. I've actually been streetpassing a lot of people lately who are playing it right now; lucky them!

I've decided to try out Sacred Stones though. Downloaded it as part of the ambassador program and never touched it. I must say it's surprisingly fun; I don't usually play grid based RPGs but i'm really liking it so far. How does Awakening compare to Sacred Stones? If it's much better, i'm gonna be in for a real treat once it's available again.

They should call it Fire Emblem: Amazing, because that's what this game is.

However, I'm on chapter 11 and worried my party is a bit over powered... 

EDIT: Chapter 10 was just beautiful.

You have to try levelling other people up.  I only have a few people that have not really been touched.

I'd say it's better, I really like way you can fight in pairs in awakening, that they finally made building supports useful, and after Sacred Stones they brought back skills. I'd say 4, 5, 9, and Awakening (don't know if I'd count it as 11 or 13 with the last two being remakes) are my favorites.

Got my copy yesterday through the mail, & I'm loving it ever since. I got past chapter 3, I prefer to go at my own pace.

Besides, I got bunch of games to be playing too :P.

how big is the digital release of the game? I cant tell because I dont  have a 3ds and it doesnt say on the site.
