Forums - Nintendo - Would Fire Emblem "IF" Be Good for a $50 Game? (Thats Both Black/White Kingdom in One Game)

Yeah, I'm expecting it to be $20-$25.

$20 is possible but $25 is imo too much. Going by this...

Fire Emblem If (2 versions: ¥4700 game, ¥1852 other ver content DLC, ¥1852 3rd DLC)

So even if we adjusted up... We get this, i'll post scenarios!

 

*If There 2 versions and DLC is expensive... (also closes to Japanese price)

Version 1= $50

Version 2 as DLC= $20

Third Path DLC= $20 

Total= $90 

 

*What I think we'll get, even if DLC is more

Version 1+2= $50

Third Path DLC= $15/$20

Total $65-$70

 

*Unrealistic best case Scenario...

Version 1+2= $40

Third Path DLC= $10/$15

Total $50-$55

 

Yeah Scenario #2 seems most likely imo!


I was just thinking Version 1 = $40 + alternate path DLC for $25. I didn't know there was a third.



Around the Network

Sure.
But I'm pretty sure that the reason the west is getting it so late is because they are going to merge the white kingdom, black kingdom and the third storyline all together in one package (or game cartridge, can't remember which one it was)

This was from an interview.

Not everyone wants to fill there SD card up with DLC, especially a full sized game like Fire Emblem. I would pay $60 for the bundled game on a cartridge, without all the special edition stuff. Japan does not seem to be giving that option, making you pay full price for both games unless you download, or buy the special edition.

We need to make some noise.


You're probably going to be alone in that.

That could work but $60 migt be too low. How about $80, but with artbook/special edition whatever :000

Ok now i see where you were confused at.

White Kingdom/Black Kingdom 2 different games. You choose who side you want to be on after ch 6 (which is shown in trailer, where everybody asking you to be on their side during the open field battle).

The DLC that is i guess an alt version of the 2 games is a story line in which the main protagonist says, (in my own words lol) "Which side do I choose? hmmm.... How... About... None" *runs off battlefield, goes to wherever and lives the life of a rogue? lol



Around the Network

Really? That would be great if they are doing this. Where is the interview?

Edit: Replying to Hiku

I would be ok with that, but what about the third game?
Depending on what it is, it may change our view on what the cost of a full satisfying experience of Fire Emblem: if may be.
I don't want to feel like they took parts of the game out to sell it back to us as a different game.

Too soon to draw any conclusions.
However, I'm very unoptimistic about this right now.


The third game is the protagonist doesn't choose a side, practically a new game in itself not possible in either Black/White Kingdom games.

That said, we need to more info obviously. Going by Awakening DLC, i think $15 for an extra game (or lets roughly half) isnt bad, especially if its like over 10 chapters long and contains extra goodies!

My point is that I would like to buy the combined game on a cartridge without the special edition art book etc. $80 is too high.

$50 for both version, $60 max, but not including DLC. Thats how i, many would see it. $40 for both versions would be a steal

Where did you read that info about what the third game pertains? I'd like a link to that, as I've read notghing about it other than its price.

And yeah we do need more info. As for the price, depending on how the second game is, it may not even be worth $1. Not if the second game is something that should have been in the first game. It could either be parts of it, which may feel fine. Or it can be so much that you feel like you're not getting a satisfying experience by just playing one of the games, and the second story is crucial, etc. These things do happen. Developers cut things out of the original game and sell them to us in another, or as DLC, etc.
So I will try to assess what the situation is here with future info we get. But we probably won't know fully until the game is out, unfortunitely.

These people are 100% fanatics of Fire Emblem and trust worthy. Anyway, highlights...

 

Then to complicate matters again, after the game is released, there will be a massive DLC available, dubbed the “Third Path“, which costs the same amount (1852 Yen) as the Hoshido or Nohr DLC.

As for the digital version, there will only be one version, unlike the packaged game. Once you reach a certain point, you must decide whether to side with Hoshido or Nohr. After making this choice, the other campaign will be permanently locked (until you buy it as DLC).

Finally, hardcore fans and collectors can look forward to a limited edition containing both versions of the game, the “Third Path” DLC and extras. This bumper-packed edition will set you back 9250 Yen.

 

Srry Third path is my speculation, but it actually make sense. Guess we need to kno more details, we need more info. We'll get it in the next 3 months as its releasing end of june for Japan
