first off horrible grammer

-----Of Course I recommend for Real Gamers

And also not going to vote due to that option. Not the grammer, but what the hell is a REAL GAMER?



i meant it in a different manner, what i meant to say is for strategy gamers, people who think through the best situations at hand! So my bad!

Just bad wording then.  Should have been something like "true strategy fans" or someting like that.

Real gamers just make me cringe because it makes me think of all the times I hear the word "kiddy" or "hardcore" or other rediculous names some people like to distinguish themselves and other by.



like i said, my bad didn't mean it like that lol! Its for people that love strategy, ex if you cant play chess cuz its too much thinkin good luck playing FE !!!

I feel you, and I agree. I just wanted to tease you earlier.

Yea figured so.  While I was posting my first post, I saw the scribbly red line under the word grammar and was so close to going and fixing them.  I was thinking "man, i can't really go about telling someone their grammar sucks while I can't spell the word"

But I got lazy and just pushed sumbit.

Fire Emblem, Kid Icarus Uprising, Super 3D Land, Final Fantasy Theaterhythm, Mario Kart 7, RE Revelations, and NSMB2 make the system worth owning. Pilotwings Resort isn't bad either if you can find it for $20 or so.

Hopefully Nintendo and/or Square-Enix will bring over Bravely Default also.

"Grammar."

yea spell check showed me I was wrong, but didn't really care.

Spelling is easy to fix while reading.  I'm sure you have seen the things where you are able to read a sentence with no troubles even though half the words are missing or incorrect.  As long as the first and last letter are correct you mind magically corrects it for you.

But grammar is annoying cause you have to re-read it a few times to figure out what it means.  I'm not talking about slang or improper wording like "me and Jim", but talking about what I posted "I recommended for Real Gamers"  That is hard to read.

But regardless, the grammar wasn't what I wanted to post about.  Grammar is but an annoyance, the thing that bugged the heck out of me was the "real gamers" part.

I just want to point out that your grammar usage in your first and second post was far from perfect. =)

 

OT: I would definitely recommend this game to all gamers. I'm currently trying to convince my coworker to buy a 3DS just for this game. (He's a huge Fire Emblem lover, so I know he'd be glad with his purchase)

I think the game is worth it. It looks great. I'd actually love to buy the bundle.

It's making it difficult for me to not buy a 3DS. Fire Emblem is up in the very top of my favourite series, possibly second only to console Zeldas, but I'm not sure I'll buy a 3DS just yet. Somehow, I ended up buying very few games for my DS. I think Shadow Dragon, TWEWY, Pokemon Diamond, Phantom Hourglass and Mario Kart DS was pretty much it.

Out of those, I only finished Shadow Dragon and TWEWY. Neither Pokemon Diamond, Phantom Hourglass nor MKDS were my cup of tea, for some reason, despite being in 3 of my favourite franchises. Similarly, Shadow Dragon was one of the weaker Fire Emblem games, and definitely the weakest translated one.

In short, the DS was the gaming machine I've owned that I've liked the least, which has put me quite heftily off buying a 3DS.

If there wasn't a Fire Emblem game released for the 3DS, I wouldn't have much incentive to buy a 3DS at all. With Awakening, there's some, but not quite enough.

I would have loved the Fire Emblem bundle, but really wanted a 3DS XL. The $30 off @BB was it for me.

Anyway, as it's been said before, you can't really be sold on a system from just one game. If not for Zero Escape, MH3-4, and other future Nintendo/Japanese games, I wouldn't have picked up a 3DS. Though this Fire Emblem is definitely the type that would push one over the edge. I toyed a bit with my friend's FE: Shadow Dragon (DS) and it felt cheap, whereas this game I would've spent $60 on. I'm not even a Fire Emblem fan, since I'm new to the series, just impressed by the demo (and hype I suppose).
