Topic: Connected and F2P Advance Wars?

I wondered what could be Advance Wars in our era of connected and F2P games so I wrote this pitch:

Your thoughts?

Sounds good to me. I'm loving Fire Emblem: Awakening so any Advance War game by them would be and instant buy for me.

How do you feel about Nintendo going F2P? Do you think they can pull it with while keeping their quality standards?

It'd be very difficult to go Free-to-play without either losing money, or making a pay-to-win or horrible game. It's still doable as proven by games like Tribes: Ascend and Team Fortress 2.

I may make business sense to attract new players with the "Free" label, but I don't feel that the connected 3DS player pool is big enough to do so. However, they can address the "Pay-To-Win" issue by being sure that expansion content isn't "better" but explore new depths of gameplay. Boardgames such as Memoir '44 are pretty good at this.

Any new Advance Wars game is great for me. I personally like it better than Fire Emblem, and Awakening is probably my new favorite 3DS game.

The same for me: I like how fluid and accessible is the gameplay and the light tone of the pre-Days of Ruin games. I have to admit that I am not into fantasy too. Still, I'm super impressed by Awakening...
