#FE | Genei Ibunroku #FE Import OT: Fire Emblem’s spinoff Performa ft. SMT48

Dee Dee said:
Some of these side characters look like Ace Attorney nutjob witnesses, intriguingly enough.
I never played a persona game, judging from the P4 anime though I expect awesome weirdness!

The Media Create thread expects a 30 000 sales opening in Japan, which is pretty bad. I hope it turns out good, and maybe sells the next week too to not completely bomb.

RIP #FE, we hardly knew you.

IT would have done fine on the 3ds, it's just the Wi U is a complete albatross for anything but Splatoon.

Ah, makes sense. I was wondering why people are thinking this won't do too well, but I've managed to keep forgetting how badly the Wii U has been doing.

It's not jus tthat, it's the audience doesn't even exist for it on Nintendo consoles anymore, it's a huge reason why POR/RD bombed, the audience moved on to the ps2/3.
 
Xenoblade X also did pretty bad in Japan, it's just that there are not enough RPG on it or coming to interest the target audience.
It's just that the audience is on Vita/PS3.
 
I just want badges of the game in Nintendo Arcade.

There is a reason why most PS4 game also release on PS3, if you look at PS4 exclusive RPG in Japan, they all bombed pretty hard, like Disgaea 5 :(
It's just that the JRPG fans are on Vita/PS3.

They also do well enough on the 3ds.
 
Yeah, unfortunately this game is gonna crash pretty poorly in terms of sales in Japan. If it ends up being great, I don't even think word of mouth would give it legs because, as has been said, the audience simply isn't there for the Wii U.

Nintendo put quite a bit of investment behind #FE, the developers spoke of it being a series moving forward, and there's that concert that was announced super early, so maybe they will still have future plans for #FE.

If #fe did as bad as xenoblade x, i'm sure everyone involved would be thrilled.

Unfortunately, this one looks like will do really bad. Don't hold my breath for a port either. Some people think its an solution for everything, but the xenoblade 3ds port barely sold half of what the original sold on the Wii in its first week. Sometimes there's no interest in some games and that's it. I'm rooting for #fe to do well though

That's too bad. Hopefully it fares better in the rest of the world, but the aesthetic might be a turn-off to people :/

I hope so. I would love to see this continue.
 
With the depressing sales discussion out of the way...

I'm in the middle of packing right now but I was able to update the OT with some more video links as well as an updated side character section, these will be updated as Nintendo shares more material closer to launch.

Let me know if there are any more materials you would like.

This thread should serve as a guide and a means of keeping all information regarding Genei Ibunroku #FE in a single place for easy access for anyone who is interested or want to clear up any misconceptions they may have.

Is there any kind of preload for this game on the eshop?
Click to expand...

Yes, you can buy it right now from this page if you want to and have a Nintendo account. My copy is (finally, after some HD-induced errors) downloading at the moment.

Kirye said:
To be fair an OT is for discussing a game, both the good and the bad. I'm gonna be buying the game and i am somewhat excited for it but I feel that the idol theme was the wrong way to go for this collaboration, especially if they wanted it to sell like SMTIV.

Sorry if that's not okay to say.

I think there's a clear difference between sensible discussion about the choice of setting and theme and whether it detracts or adds to the actual game and 'lol, waifu anime is weaboo hentai weirdo' and 'that's not what I expected so this game is poop' drive-by style posts that have weighed down other threads about the game. This especially applies once we get our hands on it and see exactly how much is genuine pandering, and how much, if any, is a send up of 'idol' culture.

Great, will jump on that as soon as I get back from work. Looking forward to trying this out, my Japanese isn't the greatest so I won't be able to understand the story fully but really looking forward to the gameplay the most.

Got this preloaded on my wii u! So I did my part digitally to support this game and atlus!
Click to expand...

To be clear, you're supporting Nintendo, not really Atlus. Nintendo's the publisher, and Atlus already got theirs in whatever deal drove this game's development.
 
Looking forward to the gameplay videos and reviews. Game was an instabuy for me until I found out about the idol theme. I remain hopeful but cautious.
 
Nice !! I imported it, but I don't think I'll be able to play it before two weeks or so.

I'm really looking forward playing it, it will probably be my last (and fourth) game on Wii U.

Nice OT. Love that box art. Btw, why did you get permission to post it early?

Shun said:
I asked a mod for permission because I will be busy traveling and making preparations before I fly out in the next few days. I don't want to post the OT late and I thought that it would be beneficial for everyone if the OT was posted early to clear up any lingering misconceptions anyone may have about this game prior to release. I've posted as much mostly accurate information as I can and have provided trailers, materials, and more for anyone to read so that they can inform themselves before the game releases and impressions are out. That and so that we can minimize the amount of complaining and whining when discussion begins.

As an international university student I haven't been able to physically see my family for 1-2 years, LINE and FaceTime just isn't enough.

New Years is a pretty big holiday so me and my girlfriend will be flying back home to see our family for the first time in a while.

Op mentioned it a few posts into the thread.
 
FYI, I did post the cipher card that you get in fortessimo edition earlier (and I'm interested in purchasing from any buyer who doesn't care about cipher).

but reposting anyway.

The Toi8 versions of Itsuki and Tsubasa were boxtoppers for the set 3 boosters.

I hope they localize this quickly. The Famitsu review is reassuring that despite weak projection for sales it might still be a very decent game.

I'd wait for the Dengeki review if anything.

Famitsu reviews don't really carry much weight anymore.
Click to expand...

Aren't Famitsu and Dengeki owned by the same company? I didn't know Dengeki did reviews, though.
 
Famitsu article with a 14 page spread will be out tomorrow with more details on the gameplay and everything about the game.

It also includes new toi8 artwork that hasn't been seen yet.

I'll add if there is anything new covered in it.
 
Great looking OT. I read through pretty much all of it even though I won't be playing until the localized English version comes out sometime next year. Have fun with the JP version folks and I look forward to your impressions and screenshots!

anyone wants the 3 sizes or blood type for the main characters? :^)
Click to expand...

Itsuki Aoi

BWH: 92-69-84
Blood Type: A

Tsubasa Oribe

BWH: 91-59-87
Blood Type: B

Toma Akagi

BWH: 98-67-88
Blood Type: B

...I won't go on. I'm surprised the female characters have their weight listed.

Edit: Oh, right:

Maiko Shimazaki

Birthday: February 15
Blood Type: AB
Height: 168cm
Weight: 56kg
BWH: 94-60-86

And some other stuff that aren't numbers in her profile. Wonder when we'll actually start getting English media for this.
 
Man, the art in this game looks so perfect.

Everything about this screams GOAT for me. I can't wait until it's out in English.

Have fun y'all!
 
Stream is showing a dungeon not shown before, so spoilers beware.

Those menus are really nice, Atlus always do them good.

The load times aren't good though.
