also, 3ds, eeeeh..I don't know about that..it seems like the new gen handheld libraries are just a bunch of remakes.

3DS finally figured out how to have original titles early this year.

Took em long enough. Assholes.

I'll end up finishing Color Cross today... but I still don't get why my mom bought it for me. Only thing I can think of is that she bought it just because it was in the bargain bin at some store.

when is that new Fire Emblem game coming out for US/EU on 3DS? That's probably the best game I've seen on 3DS that isn't a remake

Not 2012.  That's all we know.  If I had to wager a guess... March/April/May 2013.

if you aren't good at turn based strategy and hate meaningless character deaths, don't bother. Ever.

Replaying DOA4 while waiting for DOA5 to make its debut! x3

Don't worry, the Fire Emblem for the 3DS has a Casual mode where deaths only last until the end of the map for people who are bad and can't deal with the fact that a game based on war has death.

inb4 casual fans are ruining gaming

but seriously, it's not that hard.  Trial and error, and being really cautious will give you miles

I did that for 30 hours in Sacred Stones, I think I got to like chapter 17. I still don't see the point though, outside of the cool character interactions there is nothing FE does better than Advance Wars as a strategy game or Final Fantasy Tactics as a strategy game with RPG elements. And no, killing off characters and making sure none of your other characters ever acknowledge this does not get me to care about the horrors of war. It does the opposite, it is a disasterously bad decision that utterly wastes all the effort put into making you care about any of this. But they didn't want to put in the effort to add all the extra dialogue. Think of if your favorite characters from your favorite series were killed off halfway through and they were never mentioned again, even by friends and family members. Would that not be the most infuriating and intelligence insulting thing that could possibly happen?

I will admit that this series is, at least partially, not for me but that just really annoys me to no end. It's a great idea but it just throws it away when a character dies like it doesn't matter and no one cares. And if no one cares, why should I care despite the fact that caring about the characters is why it should work and what seperates it from other games.
