Fire Emblem goes from its final fantasy to power selling franchise

The sequel to the 3DS’s Fire Emblem: Awakening, Fire Emblem If, comes out June 25 in Japan (next year for us). As we’ve noted, it comes in two different versions with alternate storylines each the size of Awakening, while a third storyline will be offered later as DLC.

For the upcoming Japan release, there’s also a special edition version that includes both versions of the game and rights to the third portion when it releases.

Between putting Lucina in Smash and unveiling a Fire Emblem trading card game with codes to unlock DLC characters in Fire Emblem if (Lucina, Marth, Minerva), Nintendo has obviously gotten behind the series full bore. And fans have responded. The special edition of Fire Emblem If already sold out last week, prompting Nintendo to offer Japanese retailers a second shipment which will reportedly be the final one.

I’m still weary and wary of the fragmented and overly complicated release, but it’s nice to see Fire Emblem doing well. Maybe we’ll get lucky next year with a streamlined package and no trading card game DLC characters.
