I hate the 3d polygon designs for the characters! I just wish they'd go back to the look of the gba games, the fight animations were so much better and interesting.

They obviously won't, but part of me hopes they keep "The Latest in the Fire Emblem Series" as the name. Would fit the super confusing way Nintendo has been naming stuff lately

@jesushammer: Atlus is the one working on it, not Intelligent Systems. Atlus has a trend to say a game is coming, then not show anything until 2-3 months before it comes out.

This game is called Fire Emblem If in Japan, a possible relation to Shin Megami Tensei if...?

I NEED THIS NOW. Or sometime later this year, once it's had time get get really good. That pivoting of the camera into the battle screen was incredible.

...You know there have already been seven Fire Emblem games on home consoles, right?

Well I mean for the sake of being on new technology. I mean, i don't want it just for the sake of plugging it into a tv.

But I mean thanks for pointing out the totally relevant to what I was talking about snes games that never came out over here.

Ah... so it's The next Great Sequel in the Fire Emblem Franchise.

Awakening was my first Fire Emblem, not counting the ambassador game I dabled with for a couple of hours, and it has ended up on the disappointingly short list of RPGs I've been into that I've actually managed to finish, so that's a good sign. Not sure if I have another one in me for a while though.

I wonder is 8-4 will be doing the localization again, maybe this was project S?

Looking forward to this. I hope they do a better job balancing the pairing system this time around as it was quite broken in Awakening.

Does this mean I can stop buying the DLC for Awakening now? Because I'm not sure I want to.

"The latest title in the Fire Emblem series" is almost as good as "Name not final"

This new game seems much more feudal Japan-flavored than past games. I'm curious!

Is it just me or does the battle animation part look really bad compared to Fire Emblem Awakening?

Whats up with the edges of the models?

I like how it sets up the battle though.

WOOOOO! I thought the Fire Emblem team was working on Codename Steam, so I didn't expect to see anything about a new Fire Emblem for a while.

Well the title seems to be early in development since it doesn't even have a proper English name yet, so that may change. Also most 3DS games look like they have no anti-aliasing when shown in trailers but end up looking fine on actual hardware.

I never played a Fire Emblem game before Awakening. It was one of my favourite games of that year and I loved all the characters in it. I can't wait to see what they do with this new one!

They better have the ability to marry off all your characters like Awakening did! That was the best part! I played through that game like 4 times just to play fantasy match-maker... also admittedly because the SD card in my 3DS 'asploded a couple times.

Very excited for this. Also quite enamoured with the brief moments in this trailer that, to me at least, resemble a Grimes video.
