Apparently Amazon does not email you eshop codes, they mail the physical cards. Looks like I ain't getting this anytime soon... Blah, but I guess it gives me time to beat Xenoblade :/

Sorry if someone considers this a spoiler (I'll remove it) but I saw this screenshot on Reddit and it's amazing.
There are several people I would sell this game too by leading with this.

As it was said about a 100 times in this thread. This game is not about idols but rather about the whole entertainment business. It's not as bad or cringy as it seems like in the trailers. The game is really fucking good and a strong JRPG. Get it.
It's Megami Tensei with colours and Fire Emblem. Everything cringworthy in sexual regards has been toned down a lot for the western release so it's even easier for people that hate sexualized characters.

So not really happy with some of the censorship stuff... don't care about ages but some of the visual changes to outfits look pretty forced and some of the DLC seems to be cut which sucks.
Bought the thing anyway just now, downloading as I type. Now just to find the time to play it... I should probably try to finish Trails of Cold Steel first before starting this one...

So #FE Special Edition has come back in stock for Best Buy meaning you can use GCU.

Yes. The Wii Game Pad kind of acts like a phone and you'll receive messages from other characters. There's a bit more to it but someone else could explain it better.

Yes. The Wii U gamepad is literally your smartphone which is quiet cool. You can also give different answers afair
It's not the hardest MegaTen game but it is a satisfying and challenging game in of itself.
I think you'll particularly enjoy the battle system since it's a nice take on the Press Turn system of past games.
Lmao this is greatSorry if someone considers this a spoiler (I'll remove it) but I saw this screenshot on Reddit and it's amazing.

FInished the prologue last night, loving this game! Can't wait to see the battle system once I have alot more elemental skills and multiple session skills. Hard difficulty hasn't been too hard, atleast in the prologue, though enemies can wreck you quick if you aren't careful and targeting their weaknesses.
Really liking the characters so far too, even though haven't had much time with them. Touma is cool and liking Tsubasa much more than I thought I would. Kiria fangirl Tsubasa is hilarious
I love the text convos they did so far, they even have sticker emojis!

Just finished the prologue and I'm enjoying it. I'm liking the battle system and love the look and style of everything. Biggest complaint so far is that because there is no English dub and some stuff during battles isn't subtitled you have characters talking and saying stuff that I miss out on, and I don't know if it's like a hint or just useless fluff.
With the censorship stuff I find it weird because Tsubasa's battle costume with Caeda doesn't seem altered at all and is more "revealing" than some of the costumes that were censored (like that wedding dress). So just going off this and knowing some costumes were changed it already feels inconsistent. Like fair enough, you want to cover up some of the female characters and age them up, sure, whatever, but when you seemingly half arse it then it just becomes weird and arbitrary. Wedding dresses showing Shoulder = bad, combat dress showing a good amount of cleavage = good.

Hasn't been 30 minutes and I'm already playing the game. Also trying really hard to understand what everyone is saying in battles.
Wha? Is this game hacking into my WhatsApp or something?Sorry if someone considers this a spoiler (I'll remove it) but I saw this screenshot on Reddit and it's amazing.

Hard mode, seems reasonable so far.

$16 is a good chunk of change though. You also pay less tax as well.
I would totally wait for that much money. They could probably even offer you a $5 gift card for the trouble.
Extremely far from that simple.
I see - I guess I should've charged the Gamepad instead of the Pro Controller last night.

Looks like my Best Buy order is ready to be picked up now. May just head over there instead.
If this has been asked already, I apologize, but I didnt see this mentioned in the OT. However, do you need to play FE: Awakening first before digging into this game? I dont plan on playing Shadow Dragon, but I do plan on playing Awakening. Would it be better for me to wait to play this game before I do?

I actually thought it wasnt based off Persona all that much. I havent actually played Persona 4, either. Although I have played 3.
No. The game is its own thing. You don't need to know anything about either Fire Emblem or SMT series, but if you played some games from the series you will find nice references in it. It plays a lot like the Persona series with its own twists on the formula.
No a lot of it is scripted battle dialogue, not plot heavy or important. Just side banter.

Alright, thanks. Still a shame though.

It would be kind of cool if someone makes a video translating some of the common battle lines.

About to jump in, really excited!
I didn't finish the game yet but seems very unlikely they will spoil something very meaningful from the original games...

I'm excited to play this weekend! Just got my SE at work and the corner is a little scuffed 
No biggie though. The box is a lot smaller than I thought it would be.

Goodbye backlog.

My girlfriend was translating this and said they were basically saying, "i can help here/ i cant help here", theres also a visual indicator. The big box's with faces change if sessions are possible.

Got my copy! Too bad I have work until 5. Can't wait to start playing.
It's a helpful audio cue regarding elemental strengths and weaknesses... if one understood Japanese.
There's also the fact that the respective characters are waving to you in the background if they're available for a follow-up.

Im interested in picking this up but Im kinda confused on the premise.
I see a lot of reference to the idol thing and entertainment industry, but there is also combat?
I generally like JRPG's, have enjoyed the Persona series before and love the FE series as well. However it seems that this is a JRPG that deals with the entertainment industry? Is it also partially a rhythm game with dancing?
What does the combat consist of? What is the basic storyline? Is this okay for a fan of JRPG's in general or is it for an even more niche crowd?
