He used to be the head of marketing for Pizza Hut, Guiness, and was the VP for Panda Express. He went to Nintendo as the chief of marketing but his excellent performance, passion for expanding the brand, and adoration from the community landed him the promotion to CEO, president, and head chairman of Nintendo of America which made him the first non-Japanese person to hold the position. A big portion of the Wii's successful launch was attributed to his passion and stage presence as well as his marketing decisions, so when the previous president retired they felt Reggie was the perfect pick.

>tfw no custom robo and virtual on crossover
>they're also both dead

I think FE needs mecha.

If they can do it with furries, why not with mechanic/android beings?

>>15634267
Awakening was originally going to be in space.

>>15634228
Almost dead, that crossover with Index will come out for the PS4 soon.

>>15634267
FE has clearly locked itself into sword and sorcery fantasy, it's not like FF which has dabbled in scifi and other speculative fiction elements pretty early on in its life and continuing to draw from that genre reservoir as it went on.

Besides, if not for the IP kinda being mothballed at the moment, mecha FE would be better suited as a Nintendo Wars entry, but with RPG character sheets.

Or hell, give Codename STEAM a second chance.

That game didn't deserve to crater as hard as it did, it's niche as fuck but is a shit ton of fun with a real good feel for pacing out its unlocks to keep the game feeling fresh from start to finish.

>>15634365
Fuck that just give me another Advance Wars. It's so much better than FE in terms of gameplay its not even funny.

>>15634267
>I think FE needs mecha

It did. It's called Super Robot Wars.

>>15634267
Advance Wars seems like the more fitting candidate to go full /m/, if they can ever be bothered to make another one.

>>15634333
I'm still confused as to what exactly that game is supposed to be. Standard Virtual-On game? Virtual-On gameplay with Index characters? Some VN thing?

>>15634365
>>15634378
>>15634388
Not happening, people actually want a chance at being successful.

>>15632657
Who's top left, top right, samurai guy and the two bottom ones?

>>15634412
The issue is that they sell well... to American and European audiences. Japan gives zero fucks about the franchise and Japanese developers are very hesitant in supporting games that don't do well locally. But Nintendo could suddenly feel like doing it, they prop up Suda51's career and his games still like dog shit in Japan, while No More Heroes is a pretty big success in the west it's a borderline failure in Japan.

But I'm not foolish enough to ever imagine that Advance Wars will ever come back.

>>15632572
Do people still play this? Never got a chance to finish it.

>>15634414
>Who's top left
IDK which you mean but the two there are Ray MK II (maybe a different model but I think it's the II) from Custom Robo and the J-bomb from Blast Corps.

I think top right is Bangai-o.

>>15634487
Picked it up yesterday.

It's not bad per se, but it feels more like a tech demo for something more ambitious so far, like it should be a bonus game alongside a traditional scan and explore Prime game.

I expect Prime 4 to steal gyro aiming from FedForce though, it works surprisingly well in there.

>>15634474
Do they really sell that well?

>>15634414
Samurai is Gauss from Chōsōjū Mecha MG. It's a pretty good game.

>>15634490
Nah, Bangai-O looks nothing like that, even the N64 design.

>>15634393
Who knows, but if they are smart they will let people have action gameplay.

>>15634553
They don't sell huge amounts, but they sell pretty solid numbers in the USA. Total they always sold over half a million copies which for a small handheld franchise that's pretty good. The only one that didnt was Dual Strike, because it came out very early in the DS life cycle if I remember correctly and also a lot of fans didn't like that they ditched the cartoon aesthetic.

>>15634797
The great irony about those who complain about waifus 'killing' Fire Emblem is that the franchise has always had a plethora of waifus to pick from in every game before Awakening.

>>15634824
The actual issue is that once Awakening saved the franchise from being canned, this gave them grounds to coast on its success and don't bother trying to write plots well at all now.

>>15634835
To be fair, there were plenty of pre-awakening games with hilariously flawed plots of their own.

Doesn't stop me from loving the shit out of Radiant Dawn anyway, though.

If you're playing Fire Emblem for the plot, you're doing it wrong.

I have an old flow chart, but can't seem to find it.

>>15634835
Echoes is alright, actually. It gets a bit theatrical with how hard some of the vocal talent ham out, but it feels like a pretty solid stage play told in visual novel form, broken up with battles.

I can see why people have issue with Fates though, it's very Japanese and Conquest's exposition moments feel like they were written with the understanding that you played Birthright first. And that's looking past the story content that exists purely because of game design stuff, that is to say the kids feel really forced in and you kinda have to just roll with it and not think too hard about the multiversal hyperbolic time chamber.

OK actually there's quite a bit of jank with Fates' plot but hey for the price of full admission there is a lot to do in that game.

No FE has ever had a good plot.

It pretty much keeps on keeping on being eugenics emblem 2.0, but it's alright.

If you don't care much I hear Ryoma is a walking blender of a prepromote, but there's plenty of jank synergies to try out in Birthright.

if you play Battle Mode in Star Fox 643D with Powerups turned on (not "Classic"), you be able to obtain a powerup similar to Fox and Falco's Firefox/Firebird technique in Super Smash Bros.

The power up is named "Firebird" and you've be able to tackle down your enemies for free points once it comes in contact.

>>15638073
That would have been so cool with the Arwings.

>>15638103
honestly, it would've been nice if Zero had tech where you can take down your foes with a much stronger boost maneuver in All-Range Mode.

then again, Miyamoto planned Online Multiplayer for that other heaping pile of potential and mistakes, so it could've been added as a multiplayer element again.

>>15638124
They should have let Platinum do the game from the ground up rather than being grunts.

My problem with modern FE is less the existence of waifus (Titania is mai waifu) and more that the character and armor designs are fucking garbage. Most of Yusuke Kozaki's other work is great so it amazes me how consistently awful Awakening and especially Fates look.

Fates has to adhere to characters being really nothing more than heads glued to class-defined bodies, so that sorta constrains design a bit. I guess Awakening has a similar issue due to the reclass shenanigans you can pull off there too.

That said I'll fight you for even suggesting Basara-classed Oboro is anything but the best flamboyantly designed spear poking turbodork.
