Ooh lucky! Ike is one of the rarest amiibos. I'm jealous.

 

I was extremely fortunate (online at the exact right time) and managed to get a pre-order in for Lucina and Robin amiibos but many people's pre-orders for them have been cancelled due to short supply so I'm not getting excited until I have the actual amiibos in my hand. Still no idea what their function will be in the game tho.

yeah but its mainly due to my love for ike and por/rd so as soon as he was out i was like getting him. Im thankful i did that since now he is so rare to get but since if is going to support im pretty sure they are going to restock they must have to

 

I dont like robin or lucina enough to want an amiibo of them, i only buy amiibos of the character i really like such as ike,link,zelda,sheik

 

the only other amiibo i really want atm is zero suit samus so i cant wait for her to be out

[snsdJM]

Since step brought it up how did you all got acquainted to the fire emblem series

 

For me i used to sometimes buy games that looked cool even if i knew nothing about the game itself and one day i went to a game store and there it was Path of Radiance i legit knew nothing about the game but the cover looked cool and the back looked intriguing so i just went ahead and bought it on a hunch and boom as soon as i played it i loved it. the strategy thing rpg really made me like it since i think i have a thing for rpg's lol

 

But yeah i used to sometimes buy games that just looked cool that made me discover some great games such as fire emblem por and tales of symphonia.Though it has also me turn up on some crappy ass games -cough-pokemon battle revolution so much regret when i bought that game and i bought pretty recently as it was out so it was like 40-50 dollars total waste of money

[hyoyeon's lines in check]

I got my sister a Marth amiboo, she lovess Fire Emblem, she was actually the person to introduce me to that series with PoR/RD.

 

It was sold out so I had to get her one for £20~ =/ It was Christmas and she really helped me out with something so I was feeling generous lol I should've gotten her Ike as that's her fav lord, but alas, he wasn't out yet~

 

I don't have any FE amiboo's for myself though lol and stupid Nintendo with it's under stocking just exhausts me.

 

I hope the function for the amiboo's isn't too big, I don't like amiboo's being used as way to unlock important game mechanics, locking big things out of games and in a £15 paywall grates on me, even if I have/want the amiboo.

 

I think they'll prob do the same thing Codename S.T.E.A.M did though and just allow you to use those amiboos as units in the game.

 

Your sister is blessed to have such a saint for a brother.

I know for sure Marth will be re-stocked later this year since Nintendo confirmed it when talking about Codename STEAM but idk if/when we'll get a restock for Ike.

Wow, your story is pretty much the same as mine except my experience was with the first Game Boy Advance game. Saw it in a magazine advertisement, thought it looked cool/anime-ish, and got it for Christmas 2003. Turns out we were both right for judging a game by its cover

Of the games you have played of fire emblem who is yout top male and female

Por; Ike and Ilyana

RD:Ike and Ilyana

Awakening:Tharja/Olivia and Inigo

Fire Emblem 7: Lyn and Raven

Shadow Dragon: Shiida and Horace

[Step]

FE7 - Lyn and Hector

 

Path of Radience - Titania and Makalov but IDK why, I don't remember Makalov, but I like his face, so expressive and weird looking! Characters like Tibarn and Ranulf were more memorable to me...but still Makalov lol

 

Radiant Dawn - I mean in terms of character design, Titania, in terms of how much I like them as a character....Aimee lol she was so fun!

For guys...Makalov again =}

 

Awakening - Maribelle and Vaike

There's this one character in 7 that reminds me of Maribelle, Serra.

[Link]

I got into FE:Awaking thanks to JM's mafia game. My role was Avatar, and it's still the coolest role I've ever gotten in a mafia.

 

Anyway, the game really made me interested in playing and I bought it a few days later. I still haven't gotten round to playing PoR, but I want to play that next. I'm not sure who my favourite male and female characters are for Awakening. There are quite a few that I really like for each gender.

I completly forgot everything about him, I just like his design, if I ever get around to replaying it, I might hate him as well~ lol I just saw his picture one day and was like...oh yeah, he was in Fire Emblem! I don't even remember using his unit..IDK man, it's weird lol My memory of PoR/RD is very hazy, I remember my favourite characters and the lords and the laguz cause I really thought they had awesome designs, esp. the wolves! but outside of that...umm IDK.

 

I really like Marcia though, I'm generally not big on Pegasus Knights, but I really liked her unit, but Astrid I completly forgot about her exsistence.

 

The PoR needs to come on the Wii U! I can't be bothered to boot up my gamecube =/

You like TLoZ, too. We have similar tastes.   I never played any Tales Of games but I have a feeling I'd like them, too.

 

Well there are a lot of characters I really like, like Robin, Lucina, Lon'qu, Tharja, Cordelia, Chrom, Morgan. Tbh Morgan doesn't have a fixed gender but I feel like they might be my favourite character. I have such a soft spot for Morgan.  Definitely my favourite character from the future.

i like morgan but i feel the same about morgan that i feel about the avatar like they are just there because in reality morgan is kinda the avatar as well

 

yeah i love tloz

FE8 Sacred Stones: Joshua and Lute

FE11 Shadow Dragon: Nabarl and Minerva

FE13 Awakening: Lon'qu and Maribelle

 

I think it's obvious that I like Myrmidons    imo FE7 had the most likable cast as a whole but Awakening comes close.

 

I still haven't gotten round to playing PoR, but I want to play that next.

 

Good luck getting a copy! eBay scalpers made it really expensive. Nintendo needs to make it available on the Wii U Virtual Console so more people can enjoy it.

I agree.

i actually think the FE PoR has the best cast, most characters have depth into themselves and arent just a one thing type character though some stories only show depth but never get developed like ilyana being maybe branded though it was never explored or revealed thats what was minus some stories kinda got hinted at something but it was left to the imagination in the end but overall throught the story most characters personalities were shown and some even showed growth like jill per example who starts out as your enemy and despisez laguz( animal shifters) but as the game goes on you see her start to realize that they arent bad and even neglect her father teachings and she isnt even a main

 

like the tellius is series its pretty obvious that they put a lot of thoguht into and even planned ahead like alot of the mysteries from PoR get revealed  in RD 

 

i saw that copies for PoR go for like 500 dollars, here i still have my copy intact  in its box, with the booklet and the CD all original but obviously played and open

[hyoyeon's lines in check]

Thanks to Serenes Forest, I have 2 news items to report:

 

1) The character who looked like a Blonde Marth from the "if" trailer has been revealed to be called Prince Leon.

 

2) Shouzou Kaga, the original creator of Fire Emblem, is making a new game and is recruiting volunteers to help on it. If you don't know, Kaga left Nintendo to make his own games but then Nintendo sued him & won because they were similar to Fire Emblem. I hope this new game is a hit!

oh prince leon nice name,i like his hoshido counterpart more but he looks cool

 

did kaga work on fe tellius?

 

and ikr, im glad i never lent my FE games to my cousins otherwise they would be all lost or broken like my other gamecube games

I like the Hoshido designs more because they're more unique and interesting compared to the plain Nohr costumes. But I still prefer Nohr overall due to the "darker" and "more complex" story with harder difficulty.

 

Kaga designed Fire Emblem 64, a game intended for the Nintendo 64 but was never released and instead turned into Path of Radiance. Here you can see an early version of Ike from the cancelled FE 64:

Some big FE: if news from the latest issue of Famitsu
http://www.siliconera.com/2015/05/12/fire-emblem-if-adds-easier-modes-and-no-longer-has-limited-weapon-usage/?onswipe_redirect=never

TL;DR:

• Royal characters can alter the map terrain with a Dragon Pulse ability
• There will be an easier mode called “Phoenix†mode that revives fallen units on the turn after they die so playing Nohr won't be impossible
• Normal, Hard, and Lunatic modes are still in
• There's 9 save slots but if you get DLC that number will increase, AND...

last but not least... [drumroll]
No more weapon durability! All weapons are unlimited!


A lot of "elitist" fans are upset by this but I'm more than fine with it. Having more game modes like Phoenix isn't a bad thing. It's just more options to pick from. And now I don't have to beat the game without touching any of my best weapons because I was always "saving them for later"

Sorry to double post but I want to keep last post for the new mechanics and this post for story/character-related things.

 

One of the pages has a super-blurry blurb about Hoshido and Nohr's ties to dragons--in particular, there's a mention of them worshiping some kind of dragon, a Divine Elder Dragon or something. It seems to suggest both of the royal families have dragon blood.

 

You can customize the Avatar's:

- Body

- Hair

- Hair Ornament 

- Hair Colour 

- Face

- Facial Features 

- Voice/Vocal Tone

 

The name of the younger Nohr princess's name is Elise

Probably not. The avatar is related by blood to the Hoshido side so it wouldn't really make much sense if (s)he was a different tone than them. They could compensate by adding characters with more diverse skin tones like Basilio, Flavia, and Panne had in Awakening.

Eh, that makes sense, I just thought it was kind of an odd omission in the last game so they'd def have it this game. I wanna make my brown avatar ;O;

 

The rest looks great though! I can't wait to see what the 3rd more ~adult version of the avatar looks like

Adult female ava was my fav design last game

Tho that hair looks fug in this pic

 

About the no more weapon durability, I...never actually cared to much for that, I always had more than enough weapons, but yeah I NEVER used the legendary weapons for fear that I'll need them later! Thing is though, I always got along fine with just the basic Iron/Steel weapons and what have you, I wonder how they'll balance they more broken super weapons...

NEW "if" CHARACTER BIOS:

 

- Marx (Paladin / CV. Konishi Katsuyuki)

Amongst Nohr's royal family, he is the eldest son. Although taciturn, he has an honest personality. For the sake of the kingdom, he follows his father's -- the king's -- intentions (?) .

 

 - Camilla (Revenant Knight / CV. Sawashiro Miyuki)

Nohr's eldest daughter. She dotes on her younger brother/sister (the protagonist) to the point where she'd be more than willing to kill someone for their sake.

 

 - Leon (Dark Knight / CV. Miyano Mamoru)

Marx's younger brother. Unlike his older brother, he excells at magic. He's a genius who can flawlessly handle anything.

 

 - Elise (Rod Knight / CV. Suwa Ayaka)

The youngest child amongst Nohr's royal family, with an innocent personality. Despite not being related by blood, she's just as close with the protagonist as she is with her real siblings.

 

 - Ryouma (??? / CV. Nakamura Yuuichi)

On top of being Hoshido Kingdom's eldest son, he is also the protagonist's real brother. He is full of samurai spirit and has an extremely reliable presence.

 

 - Hinoka (Pegasus Warrior / CV. Nazuka Kaori)

Hoshido Kingdom's eldest daughter. She began training as a pegasus warrior after the protagonist was kidnapped by Nohr Kingdom.

 

 - Takumi (Archer / CV. Kaji Yuuki) 

Ryouma's younger brother. In order to obtain other's recognition of his own strength, he has been perfecting his martial arts. He has a somewhat suspicious personality.

 

 - Sakura (Shrine Maiden/Priestess / CV. Kanemoto Hisako)

Ryouma, Hinoka, and Takumi's younger sister. Unlike the other three, she's shy and timid.

Yes, that was the best Avatar in Awakening although my favorite hairstyle was

 

You're totally right about the basic weapons being sufficient. You could give any magic wielder the basic versions of Fire, Wind, or Thunder and they'd still slay. There wasn't a need for the "El-" or "Arc-" versions.
