Forums - Nintendo - So fellow Fire Emblem fans how would you feel about a Sakurai directed Fire Emblem?

 

Sakurai on Fire Emblem Yes or No?

Yes 21 56.76%
 
No 16 43.24%
 
Total:37

considering how Sakurai is a huge fan of the series (with the Smash 4 roster being more then a enough proof) it made me kinda interested to see what his take on the series would.

 

so how would you feel if the next Fire Emblem game was directed by Sakurai?



Around the Network

I would rather see him directing a new IP/reviving old IP/make a Kid Icarus sequel.

But if it actually happens, I am fine with it.



With Fates being a pretty huge disappointment, it would be nice to have a fresh take on the series, but it would also be nice to see his talents be put to use elsewhere. I really would love another Kid Icarus game made by him though. Uprising was fantastic.

While I'd be open to it, I'd rather see him, first of all, take a nice long break after all the hard work he put into Smash 4.
Then when he comes back, I'd like to see him either do a new IP, or another Kid Icarus game since Uprising was fantastic in my view (save for the ground camera)
Fire Emblem is in good hands right now and Fates was fantastic.



I wouldn't be opposed, just so long as he leaves his sense of humor with the Kid Icarus series.



Around the Network

I'd rather see him come up with the foundation for a new game and use one of Nintendo's dormant IPs as a dressing for it. Of course, that is after he finally takes care of his messed up shoulder and gets some rest.



Depends if he has any sort of experience with TRPG genre lol. I say the Fire Emblem series is in pretty decent hands all things considered, but I'm open to the idea.



Let Sakurai make whatever game wants, he deserves it after all the work that went into Smash 4.



You know it deserves the GOTY.

Come join The 2018 Obscure Game Monthly Review Thread.

Sakurai has proven himself more than enough with Smash.

However, while Kid Icarus Uprising is a good game i didn't give a damn for the story, characters and the terrible humor the game had to offer which is not something i would like to see in a Fire Emblem game.

So im not sure about him directing FE.
How about a new ip.



Just one question: why?

Did he develop any TRPG game before? Why would he do anything with a FE except for using the FE characters in another game? It's kinda like saying "How would you feel about a Kojima directed Mario"... Sakurai does a good job with Smash, there is no reason to put him somewhere else if he doesn't really wants to, and he never said anything about developing a FE game, did he? 

I would prefer a new Fire Emblem done by a TRPG team for TRPG players, instead of the boring waifu simulator they're doing now. So they should take real fans of the franchise and the genre to make a game, guys interested in the gameplay, the story and the difficulty, and not beginners or others "We want to make our characters more sexy to sell more" designers...
