Topic: Bravely Default: The Flying Fairy

The above link says the demo has "Hours of Exclusive Content" I wonder how long the demo will be, I'm just concerned because Nintendo likes to stupidly limit demo uses where as other services like PSN do not(normally) have demo limit uses which is also why I'm confused why Nintendo is the only online service (that I know of) that limits demo uses.

I played the Japanese demo and really LOVED it. Sadly the full game is not downloadable on the Japanese eShop - quite odd - a lot of internet places said it was available on the eShop at rather good budget price but actually there is a red notice on the sShop entry saying it is not available via the eShop at all. Perhaps the advertised bargain price was a slip-up and this is their way of not avoiding the problem.

Anyway it is rather sad as I really wanted this game and I am in a place where it isn't easy to get physical imports (and I can't play non-Japanese games because of region locking). Maybe some time!

But I am currently playing Puzzle and Dragons (PazudoraZ) and loving it!

I'm pretty hype for this demo. Does anyone know what time it will be up on the NA eShop?

I it's think Noon Eastern.

Yes Noon Eastern like every other week.

Gah. Three more hours =w= I just HAD to wake up at 5 in the morning... Stupid internal alarm clock... grumbles

And the NA demo is now up!

It's here!

Ours had Streetpass too and hours of content? Maybe we got the same demo afterall? if something happends after
(how can i put spoiler banners?)
it should be the same thing

Does the demo have voice acting in it?

"It's not a glitch.

Someone in your party has been poisoned :/"

Thanks for the answer! That also explains why the issue is solved when you sleep in the Inn! I think it's a nasty effect but it is a design-choice, I guess!

@henmii it's supposed to be like the old games, this was how you were warned about poison back then

Never played an old Pokemon or Final Fantasy game? BD is designed to resemble old-school JRPGs, and they usually used that weird flashing effect to indicate that your character was poisoned and actively taking damage every step.

All the more reason old school rpgs are great! This with updated graphics and animation looks great! The 3d depth also looks great! Visually this just looks like they took their time to focus on every detail.

Anyone know about how long the game is? I'm currently 20-ish hours in and at the final part of the quest for the 3rd crystal.

"Never played an old Pokemon or Final Fantasy game?"

You got it! So this was normal in old rpg's, huh? Now I understand!

I have just one question - why are the sales in Europe so low??? The game was released in December which is probably the strongest month for videogame industry and it didn't sell even 100k units! There's finally a good 3rd party game for 3DS and people don't care about it... How sad

Well lets see. It was release 2 weeks after the 3ds game of the year for most and that's never good. Can't figure out why Europe did that and NA chose to wait till Zelda sales went down a bit. Its almost like they purposely doomed it!

currently released the fire crystal a few minutes ago and can't stop playing it this game is pure perfection!

I don't know about Europe but I can only assume that the release in Australia was heavily low key. I didn't see much promotional information and the stores I went to knew nearly nothing about it. That being said, they were also all sold out of it. It must have been that each store was only given 3 or so copies, because the difficulty I had in finding the game implied that it sold like hotcakes.

Also, the game was Nintendo published in the west. I'm not sure if SE would have even released it worldwide.
