@Peach64 Golden Sun always came late in the corresponding console's life cycle. Even if this is not Golden Sun, don't discard possibility of completely new games yet.
@BranJ0 It is not a nice gesture to demand of somebody to pay tribute to a victim of a tragedy by what is basically popular vote. Imagine somebody asked that Gamefreak name 50 new Pokemon in Sun and Moon after the other tragedy's victims. If they want to pay tribute by doing something suitable in-game, they will do it themselves. Instead of making demands on others, pay tribute to her by contributing to some fitting charity.
My wild guess is that people were choosing Arceus hoping there would be an event distributing the winner or something... Because I don't understand it otherwise. (Edit: Oh look, didn't read the whole article, so that actually was the point )
I like the multiple islands thing they have going there. I hope there are still some water routes with diving, so you could get from one island to another without ferry. I do like them in moderation (and maybe if there weren't encounters everywhere). I'd love exploring some crazy underwater caverns. :3
With multiple islands being a thing, who knows. Maybe we will get some DLC later with new islands and new story episodes, like the Delta episode or Looker missions in XY. Or maybe an island with Battle Frontier/PWT on it? I'd want all of that even without it being DLC of course
Also, predicting the mysterious assistant to be a Pokemon in disguise because reasons.
Hmmm, beat SMT4 twice, first Law, then Neutral. I enjoyed the second run much more. I have my nitpicks with the original game, but if I should go by this trailer, it seems Apocalypse will address some of those issues... I'm very curious.
Please do come to Europe, please do come to Europe, please do come to Europe, please do come to Europe, please do come to Europe, please do come to Europe, please do come to Europe, please ...
@Wexter Nah, it didn't come off as rude. Even if, I have no interest in being annoyed by people's comments on the internet. I just found it a little strange opinion to have, so I decided to react for some reason Not to argue, but to discuss.
@Wexter I agree, whining, conspiracies and boycotts won't solve anything. But I also think the truth is somewhere in the middle, as I don't think that having to import games and learn foreign language, without voicing your opinion in a constructive manner will help anything either, as that is something only a small margin of people are willing to actually do. To me, supporting localized games with content which publishers consider inappropriate for the west seems to me like the best "vote with your money" way to go about it for now.
@Wexter I'm not against modifying games in localization (for example changing names or ages of characters, cultural translation of jokes and references, nice looking "censored" versions of stupid looking "sexy" costumes), but something being done in a certain way in the past doesn't mean it couldn't be improved now. Wanting to have all the content Japan has, just localized is not much to ask.
Huh, Etrian Odyssey Untold 2 had hot spring DLC no problem, which with Chloe's design would seem more inappropriate. So, is it because EO is more niche, or because of Nintendo's involvement?
Weird localization aside, I'd love to try this game. But I don't own a home console. If I there's an Atlus game for which I were to buy one, that would be Persona 5... Damn exclusivity.
@Yorumi I agree, it's annoying. Deoxys in ORAS was a good step in that direction. Keep special distributions to Pokemon with moves they don't usually learn, rare shinies and so on, I say...
I want gym leaders who are actual characters whom you want to beat and who also take an active part in a story. With the whole getting a badge business being just a bonus for beating them. Not one-dimensional pseudo-characters. BW was a good first step in this direction, but XY made a step back.
@FlameRunnerFast I know, and it pisses me off. They have several games that would be ready for a VC release, but don't release them because they think the ambassadors would be somehow cheated by the fact that someone can buy a game that they received through the program...
Guess we'll see. SMT4, which wasn't published by NIS is by far the most discounted 3DS game on the eshop, so... I hope this means Atlus/Sega handling the publishing the games better than NIS. Not them outright deciding to ignore us
Now allow me to merge my two accounts dammit. I didn't realize I couldn't transfer to a system with an ID without games on it getting lost until it was too late, now my older games are stuck, abandoned, on the old 3DS.
So, is that all of the SNES VC games on 3ds? I'll just dream about translations of old Fire Emblem games then, right here in the corner. It'd be nice to know what was the deal with the myriads of characters in Awakening's DLC
@ninjanna I also agree that it is a legitimate problem and it is good they tried to solve it (changes are not bad in principle). But just like with the tomahawk class, I think the chose the completely wrong way to go about solving it.
So, how about making it so your decisions have impact, just without the characters making it overly dramatic, so you don't think you chose the wrong decision? Not everything is always flowers and sunshine...
@Spoony_Tech Yeah, I also loved the overworld + smaller separate dungeons in IV. As much as I love that game though, prefer the large choice of classes in Untold 2 - my favorite in the series right now. I also like the Cafe from Untold 2 much more than the food system in IV, which i barely even used since you had to go search for new food every trip. + Some subtle touches like Take/Chop/Mine map icons changing depending whether they were depleted or not, better auto-route drawing, etc...
@PiplupJ Play a demo of some existing game in the series and see if you like it. I really like the gameplay - relaxing making of maps, hard battles, genuine dread while avoiding the OP FOEs, then coming back later for sweet revenge All with some great music and nice artstyle.

Re: Reminder: Day Two of E3 Brings Multiple Nintendo Games Including a 'New Role-Playing IP'
Maybe a development of some rogue ideas they got while trying to come up with a way to make SMTxFE happen, but more suitable for the 3DS?

Please be turn based JRPG with great music.
Re: E3 2016: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and Nintendo 3DS Get a Discount in Europe
Meh Smash is not my thing and the discounted price is still too damn high to make me buy it on impulse.

This is completely dishonorable.

Nice presentation. It will be hard not to buy PS4 once Persona comes out.

Re: Japan Has Voted For Its Favourite Pokémon, And It's Not Pikachu
Hmm, Lucario would be #1 few years ago.

Re: Video: SEGA Heats Up the 3DS With Sonic Boom: Fire & Ice E3 Trailer
You know, with Atlus being part of Sega, maybe the next Megaten game could have Sonic as a demon of the Undead race.
The trailer doesn't look terrible tho.

So come on Sega, Europe likes JRPGs.
Re: Poll: Do You Want The Rumoured 'MH' Next Generation Portable to be Separate from NX?
I just want something that makes future Etrian Odyssey games possible, with the map drawing at the bottom of the main screen and all
Re: Fire Emblem Fates Makes a Double Impact on the UK Charts
Birthright is more popular because it is more accessible...
Or because it makes sense to play the easier version first

Good. Good.
Re: 7th Dragon III Code: VFD Won't Be Coming to Europe for Now
Yo Sega. Digital distribution. No additional expenses.
I ideally want a physical release for everything (by which in this case I mean EO5 and SMT4:A ), but this "no plans" bul-...business makes no sense.

Fire Emblem, Pokemon and DQ8. Would replace DQ with SMT4A if it were announced for Europe. Hint hint nudge nudge Atlus
