[up][up][up]What? Chrom isn't the only main character but he's definitely a main character of FE.

If FE does get three characters I'd prefer they add Chrom and drop Ike for Micaiah instead of keeping three lords on the roster.

A main character, but not the main character.

I'd posit that the order of importance to the story goes Robin > Lucina > Chrom.

Chrom being necessary for Lucina to exist aside, of course.

Come on. He's not even the main character of Awakening. The player avatar is the main character of Awakening.

As long as they don't use them for something absurd I've no problems with that. Besides, can't complain with the chance of Nintendo (and Mega Man) mini-trophies being released.

[up][up] Already linked here friend, and already stated opinions on the matter. If done well, Nintendo may find tidal waves of money coming from those little figures.

Or it may have something to do with 3DS linkups, or something.

I sure said that!

I don't mind it as long as it doesn't interfere with getting everything in-game. I don't want to have to buy figures to unlock every trophy, song, character, ect.

They won't do that. If they did, people would be out for their blood. This'll probably be for Wii U/3DS connectivity to transfer custom movesets and things of that nature. At least that's how I would develop the figurines.

And to go further, if I'd be allowed to add DLC through those figurines, I'd develop it so that they would be used for both versions and once the figurine is scanned in, then as long as the Smash save file is in the system, they can play as the character however they see fit. So say if I made a Tharja figurine for Smash, I would use it to scan her in once and then play as her as long as the data from the figurine is there on file. For DLC characters already scanned in and for pre-existing characters (Mario, Link, Samus etc.) the figurines would be used as a universal trasfer tool for 3DS's and Wii U's that have Smash 4. That's how I would develop it anyway...

I could conceivably see figurines also adding very minor stuff like a piece of music or an extra in-game trophy, but nothing too big like characters or blatant on-disc DLC.

Have 'em unlock stuff that you can otherwise get in game very randomly (like, CD drops, for music), or through long-term achievements. There's nothing stopping you from getting the stuff in-game, but the figures offer a convenient alternative.

And a figurine.

Also, I would have such DLC figurines (if they decide to go that route) released a while after the release of both versions, like a 6 month gap between the release of the game and the figurine characters. This would make to have them well balanced within the game and developed from the ground up instead of having the figurines be used to have the character be playable only for them to be already on the disc.

I hope this doesn't read as anti-consumer, this is just off the top of my head...

Okay, I'm not a huge fan of him, but it's great to see another potential cut back.

Awesome! Not only Ike is back, but now we have one problem out of the way for any future Fire Emblem discussions!

That's cool. I've never played a Fire Emblem game but it's good to see a fan favorite back. Tharja for Super Smash Bros for Nintendo 3DS and Super Smash Bros for WiiU.
