New Fire Emblem is....actually good?

Meh. Franz.

So the game is out in Japan and I managed to "find" a copy. I wasn't really expecting much considering that it looks like more of the same from Shadow Dragon, but the game actually is a lot of fun.

A few things that they've improved

-Graphics look nicer, and the overall game is much brighter then Shadow Dragon. Critical animations are also flashier, but I don't play with battle animations on anyways
-Even though the game is in Japanese, the game has TONS more story then the original FE3: Book 2. Eight new prologue chapters, Six new gaidens with actual story, base conversations, added conversations to the main chapters, relationship chart, this seems to have at least as much story as FE7. No support conversations, but base conversations more then make up for this (I had 10 Base Conversations in one chapter). Oh, and speaking of the gaidens? You don't have to kill your units to access them
-Ranks are back, and the game is actually harder. Good luck beating Lunatic mode
-Miscellaneous cool stuff like a 30 crit tome and Warrior triangle attacks
-Supports are in, with conversations being activated in the base after characters participate in a certain amount of chapters together

The game just seems to have so much more charm then Shadow Dragon even though its still in Japanese. The only things they didn't really fix are a lack of rescuing (although there's a rescue staff that any staff user can use) and no individual battle pallets (I don't even play with animations on, so w/e)

I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have about it if anyone's still skeptical, and send me a PM if you want to know where to "pick it up"

Yes, My-unit can class change to anything in their class set. From the start though:

Males can be Mercenaries, Knights, Fighters, Cavaliers, Archers or Mages
Females can be Myrmidons, Pegasus Knights, Cavaliers, Archers or Mages

Class change is available in Chapter 1, and you can change to the same classes as in Shadow Dragon.

Here's My-unit ATM:

you misunderstood


he listed the initial classes -- assumably, your character can class change to any of the classes in their 'set' after initial class selection


outside that, i am glad they actually bothered to put some effort in on this one -- i suppose i will have to reserve my judgement until it's out in the US, as i have no real intention of playing a rom or importing

I was actualy trying to say that the fact that My-Unit apparently doesn't slowly gain a bigger pool of classes as the story progresses sucks.

I would say Marth is the equivalent of Eliwood and My-Unit the equivalent of Lyn. My-unit is the main character in the prologue chapters, and plays a major role in the gaiden chapters as well (he/she is forced for some of them). Other then that, Marth is still the star of the story, although most of the base conversations involve My-Unit talking to your other units.

Yes, if either Marth or My-Unit dies, then its game over.

Another cool thing I remembered: There's an unlock-able mode, that is similar to the main game except your enemies move first rather then your characters.

Again if anyone wants to give it a try, hit me up with a PM.

Enemies reinforcemove in harder modes, but not in normal.

Harder modes don't just change enemy stats either. You start off with 0 Gold in Lunatic, and enemy density doubles.

Surprisingly the Prologue is still in the harder difficulties. Its ridiculously difficult though, and is worth trying out to see just how hard it can get (For a good comparison....its about as hard as Gheb FE if you've ever played it).

I mean, you have to fight this when your characters are around level 2:

Yep, Casual/Classic modes are available on every difficulty.

Also, is this board obscure enough for me to post a ROM link, or is that still a no-no?

Well that makes a lot more sence. They should reward you for doing better, not for being absolute fine china plates.

And on a side note my character looks like a stoic twit. Which is odd for a mage.

you get new named characters


shadow dragon fills up your ranks to 15 with generics whenever you have below that threshhold, which is also how many you need to get into the gaidens -- the generics are just that, so the gaidens give you a few spare guys with names and faces

Anyway, I think you do get some nameless generics; I only played SD once and refused to let anyone die so idk

Also, is this an FE3 remake including the story that was in shadow dragon, or just the part that FE3 added?

i've stopped bothering to attempt to explain that the gaidens in shadow dragon are not rewards, but rather safety nets


[it was still dumb, but so is calling them rewards]
Well excuse me for not knowing how these things work. And how are they safety nets? Do they get your characters back or something?
you get new named characters


shadow dragon fills up your ranks to 15 with generics whenever you have below that threshhold, which is also how many you need to get into the gaidens -- the generics are just that, so the gaidens give you a few spare guys with names and faces
Ah they just give you new random red shirts that you can get kill.

Just the part that FE3 added, which is still significant. 8 Prologue Chapters, 24 Main Chapters (The Final Chapter Parts are divided into separate chapters in this game), 6 Gaidens, 4 Trial Maps plus any ddownloadable missions.

[some fire emblem scenarios made for a short lived SNES addon]

also, there will be DLC maps

Not to my knowledge no, but I'm playing from an emulator so there could be. You might want to sell Shadow Dragon anyways since it kind of sucks :P

Another interesting note: This game has 77 characters, more then any game in the series. They have all the characters from the original, the ones from Book 1 that weren't in Book 2 (Exception being 3 characters), all new characters, and the BS FE characters.

Nope, you're actually encouraged to keep everyone alive due to survival rank. Gaidens are accessed through low turn counts, not killing units.

The turncount requirements are pretty liberal, I think just about everyone that has this game has made it to the gaiden chapters. Think turncount requirements similar to FE7 Chapter 7x. You can't completely waste time, but you'll still be able to meet the requirements no problem.

They do not, but base conversations do. From what I've seen, using a character in battle opens up a conversation with them in the base between that character and My-Unit. There are three levels to this (C, B, A) and getting to A gets you an item. There are also other base conversations not involving My-Unit, similar to in POR/RD. The relationship chart also gives more background on characters, and more characters are now important to the story. I'd put character development somewhere between Radiant Dawn and FE7 from what I've seen.

Similar to in FE7, they give backstory, new characters and of course more experience.

I know that, but when choosing normal theres a pop up screen, different from normal/casual that seems to have a yes/no option, which I think has something to do with the tutorial forcing you around nonsense

You're probably right then. I started on normal (Well, started on Lunatic but gave up) and I did have the tutorials. However, only the first Prologue Chapter forces your movement. After that the tutorial occurs strictly in popups at the beginning of the chapter.

Technical question: How does saving work? Does it still automatically suspend your data when you shut off the DS? I liked that about FE7/8 since it let me quit without losing data during the enemy phase if I had to stop playing suddenly.

Unfortunately you have to hit suspend in order to save the game. There are also save points scattered across the map like in Shadow Dragon that serve the same purpose as "Battle Save" in FE10 (although there are only 1-2 per map)

...why would they limit suspensions? Battle saves, yeah, but suspensions? O.o

Oh, duh, I forgot the DS pauses when you close it. That's all I need to remedy the sudden suspension thing, so I'm happy now. I hope this does release in the U.S.

There is? I never heard that before. In any case, closing your DS does remedy this quite effectively.

Sorry for the double post, but this is pretty cool news. It seems that I jumped the gun and there ARE in fact support conversations in this game.

After two units have participated in battle for the required amount of chapters:
http://serenesforest.net/fe12/support.html

Then a Base Conversation will open up between those two characters. That's why My-unit could talk to everyone...because he/she technically supports everyone. What I didn't know is that other units can support as well.

This is pretty good news I must say.

Yeah, his default appearance is kind of bland.

Also, at certain points in the game, characters will ask you if you want your hairstyle like them (or in some cases they'll give you an accessory like a mask). Whatever you do, don't say yes to Wrys's request at the end of Chapter 3x, or you'll be bald :P

Fair point.

Either way, you are making it difficult for me to hold my principles. :(

edit: actually, I can't say I haven't seen attractive bald ladies. Hmm.

Weapon rank up maybe? If they didn't drop an item that was probably it.

I think the main point of the gaiden has something to do with the Sniper who's originally guarding the throne. Old man Wrys just happens to wander into the middle of the battlefield not knowing whats going on :P

And why should I trust your ability? You have very consistently been losing ground to the Germans, regardless of whether I've been on your side or not. What you're telling me is that I have a dilemma: either I can fight you and see you lose all of your SCs to Germany, or I can fight Germany and see you lose all of your SCs to Germany.

I was wondering why he chose to appear in the middle of the enemies area. That old man is an idiot.

And it appears that casual mode doesn't prevent a unit from dieing in the between battle arena. Which sucks ass.
