The bundle looks so sweet. Anyone here getting one?

How does one get it anyway? By Gamespot/Amazon? Or wait until the stores here have the stocks?

Sorry, I'm new to this xD

Gamestop has it for preorders right now! biggrin.gif I'm totally getting the Gamestop physical copy just because of the sweet artbook preorder bonus. Even if it means I have to pay slightly more and wait a bit longer for my copy to arrive haha.

Can you share with us on how you plan to buy from Gamestop?

Afaik, they don't ship goods to Malaysia right?

They don't ship to Malaysia. However you can get help from the Bulk Orders/Service Noticeboard section, there's a number of local folks offering services to help you get items from websites that don't ship to Malaysia. smile.gif

No problem! I would have preorder it from a local shop (cheaper + faster) if it wasn't for the Gamestop exclusive PO bonus haha

Completed the demo a few times, and I'm happy with it! NOA has totally redeemed themselves with the superb localisation for this one. The English voices and script exceeds beyond my expectations (I prefer the English voices for the female characters than the original Japanese urgh) and the 3d effect really stands out *___*

Virion's skirt-chasing tendencies and Frederick's sasstitude are absolutely hilarious biggrin.gif

Completed mine as well and I agree, it was very fun. I'm used to.. well poor voice over when a Japanese games are localized and as far as the demo goes, the voice over was done nicely. I can't say that I like Virion voice, but he only speaks like two, or three lines so I'll wait and see(hear).

Can't wait for 4th of February~

well it seems I spoke too soon without researching it first.  blush.gif

Dual Audio

Giving the players the chance to switch to the original Japanese audio is a nice touch, seeing as many jrpg fans buy games which their favourite seiyuus has a role in. The English voices in this one is as good as the ones in Kid Icarus Uprising though. It's lovely to see NOA putting in so much effort/budget for this niche series biggrin.gif

I loved the demo but I'm not sure whether SRPG would last me very long?

This is what I mean:

Cut Scene -> Battle -> Cut Scene -> Movie -> Cut Scene -> Battle -> repeat

No exploration, no world map, weak story (?)

Help me out here, I can't decide whether to pre order or not sad.gif
*
There is a world map feature in Awakening, but if you want to do level grinding I think the only way is to purchase at least one of the many DLC maps (I think the one with Marth will be free for a short while). If I'm not mistaken you can get DLCs after the 4th or 5th chapter? The world map allows you to also visit shops and battle with your friends' team and potentially recruit the leader after you defeat them or spending in-game money. Also, the storyline is really great IMO, possible one of the best in the series. smile.gif

I highly recommend getting this game! thumbup.gif

Wow, NOA really underestimated the sales for this game huh. Can't blame them either since this franchise has literally gone from being one of the more underrated titles into a mainstream titles right now.

That said I've been eyeing on this game for quite long and I can't wait to get my grubby hands on it too biggrin.gif

Just finished the game yesterday. I had ridiculously high expectations for this game and it still managed to surpass it rclxms.gif Married my Avatar to Chrom and watching their children killing everyone with ease is amusing biggrin.gif

I really enjoy reading the parent-child supports! Most of the father-child ones are pretty ok although generic but the mother-child ones is especially heart-warming wub.gif

I totally understand, man. sad.gif I preordered my Gamestop copy months ago and it's isn't here yet, so I got the digital version and considering whether to sell the hardcopy or not when it finally reaches me l-lol;;

I was playing a Paralogue where you recruit Severa earlier.
I paired Virion and Sully together and used Virion with Long Bow to attack an enemy Warrior at the other side of the wall. Then Dual Strike activated and Sully rushed in for the kill.

How is that even possible?  hmm.gif
*
Well, the distance limit (and walls lol) doesn't matter for the dual attack seconds haha. biggrin.gif It's the same if, say, you reverse the pair and Virion can still dual attack with a bow from one step away.

On the other hand, I managed to had a Streetpass battle with a genuine Awakening player for the first time! I'm loving the features of this game.

I think he means Catria (Shida was the one who scored l-lol...) Most of Cordelia's romantic supports are rather bittersweet cry.gif Don't worry girl I will find you a great hubby!

yea.. She thinking of Chrom as magic happens.. poor guy.. but severa is cool..

I kept messing Chrom up.. I kinda want him to be with Olivia.. guess I'll replay it again... but I got so many Hammerine(the item that repair equipment)..

hmm... Nowi is cute.. but..

Well, not so much galge, it fits the story. Not some random or senseless relief. For me at least

I wanted to pair Sumia with Henry AND Olivia with Chrom at the same time, but knowing Chrom's automatic waifu priorities in the game, this is going to be a tough challenge......

The only character I feel safe pairing Nowi with is either Ricken or a young male MU, ahahahaha;;; And the Ricken/Nowi's ending in the game is kind of lulzy (if not, kind of creepy...)

SumiaXHenry? man she's going to have nightmare everyday.. lol

haha.. I feel bad when I try to pair my unit with Nowi... when I'm using model 3 with the face with scars.. remind me the time she was 'chased' by Gregor..

But Kid MU doesn't really work.. given the deep voice set.. not that MU has many dialogue, but still..

hmm... how many spotpass paralogues are out? only Lament of the Dead king? I want Emm
*
I find Henry to be really sweet actually, ahahahaha. I kind of wish there's a divorce option so I can make my character break up with Chrom to be with Henry instead l-lol;; blush.gif

The Japanese version has a younger voice option for both of the MU genders, and I'm disappointed that they didn't bring it over to the localised version. I want my MU to be kiddos too orz........

Finally recruited Walma-, I mean, Walhart. His extremely egoistic quotes made me lol quite a lot haha.

I wanted to recruit Gangrel but having Chrom talk to him three times without killing Gangrel on an accident is hard....

Finally got a copy of this game from Kyo.
Guys is the English dub good? Anyone tested both?
Japanese dub still the best I suppose?

Well imo the localisation plus voice acting for this game is one of the best among Nintendo games so far. I actually spent more time playing it in English voices rather than the original Japanese, haha. The voices for most of the female characters are much more tolerable in English (I will probably get hated for this but I'm not a fan of generic moe voices, I like my girls to be anything but stereotypically whiny). But yet again, I suppose many people will like the original voices due to the popularity of the seiyuus. smile.gif

Oh man, I really wanted to see how Lucina looks like in the bride outfit (but can't cuz I'm training her in all my save files).

Reach 30 hours on this game, chapter 19. I've been grinding and enjoying the tiny bits of the game. I didn't want to advance so far into chapter 19 but I went anyway since that way I can have Tiki and Cynthia.

God Cynthia is sooooooo adorable. I mean literally sooo damn adorable. I for once am pleased for ChromxSumia pairing just because Cynthia and Lucina support dialogue. Extremely pleased. I don't know whether Cynthia support dialogues with her other potential sibling are like, but for me as of now, Cynthia and Lucina beat them all.

This might be a spoiler for some so I'm gonna put in into spoiler.

I'm exhausted from unlocking the support dialogue.. maybe I should skip them and unlock them on 2nd playthough..

IIRC female Morgan and Lucina have generic sibling supports smile.gif My male Morgan and Lucina are siblings and they have the same sibling supports as Lucina with her other potential siblings (Cynthia, Brady, and Inigo can be Lucina's siblings too I think?) biggrin.gif

TBH I'm kinda disappointed how Lucina is the only one who can be a sibling to my male Morgan though sad.gif
