@Link41x Why is any of this a surprise? Fire Emblem is ace and I'm loving it but they really screwed the pooch on the UK market. The "special edition" basically didn't exist over here, appearing all over other european markets, I searched and searched for weeks but nothing, ended up getting it from French Amazon and sent over.
The whole "buy a cartridge" and download 2 games later thing also really lowered the value in peoples eyes.
Then there is the simple fact it is a niche game. Then there is the fact America had this months before the UK then the fact Japan had it over a year beforehand.
If you didn't religiously keep up to date with this game, it was easy to miss - that isn't good marketing.
