The best possible way to fully connect FE6 to FE7 isn't to give Roy a Dragonstone or whatever
It's by giving Roy access to Ereshkigal
So Chris Hackney tweeted about how he wants Boey in Fire Emblem Warriors.


I'd be down for that. Boey's great. Plus Saggitae is the perfect spell for this kind of game.
If I could choose a Mage from SoV, it'd definitely be Sonya, though without even considering Celica she would already have low chances
But if anyone else from SoV should be included, not counting Alm, it should definitely be Zeke so we can have Camus, Zeke and Xander in the same game :troll:
Sirius dlc when tho
making Zephiel more sympathetic
You mean Hector survives? That's the only way to do it
It sounds like the best solution, although Al is a walking spoiler bomb.
-He is the son of Hartmet, the leader of the Eight Generals/Legends and the original wielder of both the Binding Blade and Ecksechs.
-He is a Manakete, as his mother is a dragon.
-His body was saved by Athos during the events of Binding Blade.
But Athos is kill during FE6, what?

Just like Pokémon Yellow, the Virtual Console release of Pokémon Gold & Silver will censor :124: to remove its black face (just Japan because it was already censored internationally)

So after my exam today, I put 25 more bucks in a donation bin for victims of this year's Hurricane season.

I cannot get over how tough it must be for people in Southern Texas, Puerto Rico, and Florida with all these storms. That combined with allergy season is why I don't like September AT ALL.

It's what his wiki on FEwiki says:
During his first battle with Zephiel at Missur, the Fire Emblem awakens Al's true power and he promotes to a Dragon Lord. This promotion changes his appearance, although he is unable to retain this form until later. He is not strong enough to survive, so his body was destroyed, but he is saved by Tiena and Athos.

Super Bomberman R is getting even more content.
  • "Grand Prix" mode: 3 vs. 3 matches
  • Crystal Rule (possibly similar to Splatoon's Rainmaker)
  • Three new Bombers (like the last batch, all based off of other Konami IP's)
Reiko Hinomoto Bomber (Rumble Roses)


Anubis Bomber (Zone of the Enders)


Jehuty Bomber (Zone of the Enders)
Plus an official soundtrack for the game is coming in December.

I'm assuming this content will be all free like the last content batch.

My sister came over this week and we had a good time. She ACTUALLY paid me back some of the money I loaned her so now I can get groceries next week. I also finally met my niece, and got to see my nephew, who's growing like a weed.

A good week after a boatload of ****. I'm feeling a lot better. But its back to the old grind now, and soon enough, back to depressed ol' me. But I'll be fine. I've weathered it all this long.

So... Yeah. That's me now... How about I get along to that avatar change now, eh?

I played some MSR.

So, how was it?

I can definily say that, it is a Metroid game. I play ZM, Fusion and SM. And beside the new stuff who i am quickly learning, everything that I know is here. Infinite Bomb Jump is definily easier than before, but it make little shortcut here and there that make you gain stuff quicker. Also, killing enemy in one hit after you freeze them and use the counter attack to destroy them is the greatest feeling ever.:denzel:

Well, I guess that's because the manga was written before FE7.
It's the only reasoning I can find for this

You would think, but believe it or not, Volumes 4 and onward actually were released after Blazing Sword. Blazing Sword was released in Japan on April 25th 2003. Volume 4 was released on May 1st 2003. It's last volume, Volume 11, came out on October 4th 2005.

Just picked up a copy of Hardcore Gaming 101's: Guide to the Famicom Disk System

Given how obscure the system and it's library is outside of Japan, despite it's historical significance, I'd recommend anyone here to check it out. It's both well written and researched. I'm surprised how much of the library doesn't require a significant knowledge of Japanese.

That moment when Bayonetta 2 director Yusuke Hashimoto likes and retweets my post. Not much of something to talk about, but still interesting regardless!

Also, hello again.

Phooey, I wish I knew this earlier but if I bought the Virtual Console version of Pokémon Gold at certain retailers, I could've gotten this neat 3DS theme:



Well, at least the one I got from buying it off the eShop is still nice.

Ah, I see you've been using the lesser-quality Wikia wiki. No wonder you picked up on some misleading information. If you had used the better, non-Wikia wiki, you'd have found more accurate, reliable information.
Athos is still dead in Hasha no Tsurugi; what happens with him saving Al is that Al, while near death, is brought to Athos' shrine, where he is brought into the light and meets Athos, who grants him a Dragonstone which gives him the power to control his true form.
I'm totally not biased, I swear

Despite all the issues Seven Deadly Sins may have, Escanor still continues to be a badass.
Like, everyone in this manga will get jobbed at least once, except this man. The only thing that can defeat him is himself.
The guy defeated a Demon that jobbed the rest of the cast by sheer intimidation, completely overpowered someone who thrashed Meliodas and now ****ing made a joke out of Meliodas's "strongest form" which was impressive enough only to make Escanor go full power.
And I'm glad the entirety of the fanbase can agree on how awesome Escanor is.
How does he do all of that? By praising the ****ing sun, that's how.
He ****ing punched Meliodas, aka the strongest demon that exists, to near death.
God I love this man

You know, since Fire Emblem interest has increased a bit from the FEWarriors event, I thought we could talk about something regarding Binding Blade/Blazing Sword. As we know, it's one of the games that fans would like to see a remake for those games as well as some of the Fire Emblem team, as the Echoes director wants to do a remake of Binding Blade.
We've all been talking about the possibilities of what they could do, from making Mark the Tactician an official Avatar character and giving him/her a background, from adding Blazing Sword event references or even characters into Binding Blade, adding events between Binding Blade and Blazing Sword, making Zephiel more sympathetic, melding Binding Blade and Blazing Swords' stories and making them more in-line and consistent with each other, etc.

But recently, I've come across something that we haven't talked about yet. As I've noticed how much the Fire Emblem team does pay attention to it, I think we should talk about Binding Blade's Manga, Hasha no Tsurugi. Or Sword of Champions when translated. Basically, it's a Manga of Binding Blade that takes place during Binding Blade, but adds in new characters, more background for some areas, more lore, another antagonist, etc. By what I heard, it was a side-story that eventually became an alternate telling of Binding Blade.
Now normally, of course you'd be thinking, why bother? Video game manga adaptions do add in new characters or backgrounds, like the Legend of Zelda Manga books, but they aren't often canon to the video games. And yeah, Hasha no Tsurugi is it's own thing rather than a side story of Binding Blade. Not to mention Awakening made no references to them. However, Hasha no Tsurugi was referenced by Binding Blade by a Nintendo Event and even had weapons related to 3 of it's characters, namely Al's Sword, Tiena's Staff and Gant's Lance. Now while this was a long time ago, what was not a long time ago is the fact that it's characters have come to the Cipher card game.
In order: Al, Tiena, Gant, Kilmar, Zeed, Jemmie.






These characters from the Manga actually got cards for the Cipher game and not just the 3 main characters, but 1 side character and 2 villain characters. Basically, these characters actually got official updated looks just recently. Which means that the Fire Emblem team is aware of them.
When discussing Binding Blade, we definitely talk alot about intertwining Binding Blade with Blazing Sword more, but we never looked at the possibility of them bringing the Manga into the game's world. Normally, we wouldn't have given it a second thought considering video game mangas are mostly their own thing rather than official. But seeing as the Fire Emblem team is giving some attention to it, think it's possible that the manga might become part of Binding Blade? Whether it might be full treatment or the characters getting the Extra character treatment like the Cipher characters with Echoes?
I actually picked up the entire manga during my trip to Japan two years ago. Found it in a clearance bundle bin at the local book store for about $20. I still need to read through the entire manga myself, but I'd be surprised if they didn't do something acknowledging the manga for any potential remake(s); also the Mario Kart Double Dash bonus content for FE7.

Edit: nevermind figured it out.

Going to just copy this from the Metroid Thread. Would have earlier, but computer crashing and that appointment



Just beat Samus Returns. Final time of 8:13 becuse im bad.Holy **** this game is great. Prime only barely beats it for my favorite game in the series. I cant believe a REMAKE did so much great stuff. Pseudo review as usual for when I beat a game.

  • Precision aiming needs to be a requirement for all 2D metroid from now on. It's just way too much of an improvement
  • Same goes for pickups floating too you. Much less tedious
  • The game is beautiful. They took a game known for having no visuals to tell where you are, to creating multiple areas that all look great.
  • The difficulty is really good. It isn't so punishing that you will die at random, but boss fights will kill you, and random enemies will make you work carefully, ESPECIALLY before you get an area's upgrades, but not so carefully that you have to move at a snail's pace.
  • Music is atmospheric as ever, with some nostalgia too
  • Hunting metroids is better than ever
  • powerups make you feel super powerful
queen metroid fight was really cool, and a bit harder then expected, but i got lucky and beat her 3rd try. running around with the baby metroid is as cute as ever.

but the real star is. . .
MOTHER ****ING META "Proteus" RIDLEY. HOLY ****

the fight was hype, the baby helpong was hype, the fact he is FINALLY a final boss is hype, the music was hype. what a way to end a game
Final Result: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

At the very least, it does a better job at tying the loose knots and explaining how Athos saves Al. It wasn't exactly wrong, just very vague.
And I'm not biased either, just blissful/ignorant when it comes to wikis in general.
Regardless, thanks alot for clearing things.

Also, every FEHeroes player, get your SP Training Mitts ready! Camilla's FEWarriors Hard Map is frickin' amazing for SP Training. Basically, SP and EXP are not reduced for playing the Map again after beating it! Not to mention it's Friday and Saturday tomorrow, meaning Double SP! You get around 72-75 SP per run, so 144-150 on the Double SP Weekend!

At the end of the pokemon episode today, we learn of another big plot point coming. Kukui is planning to open up the league in Alola just like the games. It should be neat to see how that goes down.

So many free orbs lately in Heroes, at 88 now and Auto-battle Trials are coming up soon. Hopefully this means I'll be prepared for any limited time units that may come in October.

Has anyone been supporting units yet? I've only paired Boey and Mae because the bonus is literally the owl effect and they were already used together because of that synergy. Saving my Katarina for the the day that will never come that I get an Innes.

Oh and Fire Emblem Cipher was mentioned, has anyone here actually ever gotten some of the cards before? Hopefully if Heroes continues to popularize the franchise we might one day soon see English releases of them, a set just came out with Alfonse and friends as cards too. Japanese or not, the art is beautiful for a lot of them.

Hmm should I get Pokken tomorrow?
I would love to have it, but like with Mario Kart 8 Deluxe I just have a hard time making myself drop the cash. In the future if I can get it cheaply I'd give in, but by then most people would probably have moved on.

I haven't quite yet besides Summoner Support. That being said, I just recently got a +Atk, -Def Eirika to 5* 40, so I'm hoping I can pair her up with a Bladetome user. I have Tharja, Nino and Odin, but I also have a Linde with Blarblade, although she is -ATK/SPD(can't remember which right now).

I'm picking up Pokken tomorrow - but at the same time, DX versions of Wii U games are an easy sell for me as I never owned a Wii U. No idea which characters I'm looking at using; the only ones I don't have at least some interest in trying are Croagunk (RNG), Braixen and Gardevoir.

I just hope they make a sequel to Pokken one day without the stupid Phase Shift gimmick and faster gameplay. It feels way too clunky the way it is now and I don't think I'd have fun with the full game

I also need to save money because Nintendo is murdering my wallet

I really wanna try out the new characters in Pokken. Specifically Decidueye and Empoleon. Still sad that Breloom didn't make it in but the roster is much better than beforw., so I'll take what I can get.

I never got the Phase Shift thing.
I just mashed the **** of everything until I discovered a cool move.

This lead me to win 7 matches in a row against a friend.... just to lose the next 26.


**** you, Blaziken.
