Even with that, 1 year is a short development cycle.  Though I do know that given the footage they showed, they clearly started a while ago.  However, you also said coming to the West 2015.  Sometimes it takes several months before a game gets localized.  It could easily be a Q2/3 2015 Japan title, and Q1/2 2016 for the West.

Last FE game was 2012 in Japan, so that would be 2-3 years?

They haven't released any real sized games since 2013.


Doesn't necessarily mean they worked on it since 2012-2013, though.  Even if they have, there's still the gap in localization time and the fact that we don't know its release date for any region.

More niche Japanese releases? When is the 3DS going to get some proper AAA games?

Actually I'm stoked for this. Is it getting a cart or just going to be an eShop game? I'll take either.

MH4U, MM 3D, Youkai Watch, Fire Emblem just to name 4 games releasing in the West 2015. 


More niche japanese RPG type games. Where are the AAA like Grand Theft Auto and Call of Duty? (I was messing with the first sentence, btw, as that's all that is said when Vita gets interesting looking Japanese games).



RIP Dad 25/11/51 - 13/12/13. You will be missed but never forgotten.

Zelda and Fire Emblem sell more in the West. Even Monster Hunter Tri sold about as much as Japan in the West.

And none of those games are niche. Besides Fire Emblem they all sell many millions. The best sold Vita game on vgchartz only sold 1.40 million copies. Maybe that's why people call Vita games niche.

Who would play COD on a HH lol?

You can calm down on the defensiveness, it was a tongue in cheek comment and this is going off topic. Wow just wow at this response though. Priceless.
