    Nintendo now considers Fire Emblem to be a major Nintendo franchise, on the level of Animal Crossing, etc. due to success of the recent titles like Fire Emblem Awakening, Fates Birthright, and Fates Conquest. This is also a reason they decided to bring the series to mobile devices.

    This is awesome. Fire Emblem still doesn't sell quite as well as many of Nintendo's other IP, but to be recognized on that level is really nice and hopefully means we'll start seeing more from Fire Emblem and more often. (which is really already happening with all the Fates games and the new mobile game)

    XD They should have considered the Fire Emblem series as a part of their IP a LONG arse time ago impo. But of course Fire Emblem has to sell an arse ton of games to the 3DS for it to be seen as such of course. *rolls eyes*

    ^ The issue is really that it never sold well AT ALL outside of Japan, and Awakening was nearly the final game in the series because of that. The fact that the last few games have been so successful have prompted them to consider it a major IP.

    ^Yea, but again the problem with THAT is that the franchise had to be completely remade JUST to get more of the 'general audience'. The dating aspect of the newer games are not needed, if I could get the game with out it I'd probably get back into it, oh & no extra dlc. Otherwise it has too much dlc & way too much added to it that was never there to begin with (impo).
