Fire Emblem: Awakening heading to North America, apparently

Update 2: Sounds like Reggie let this one slip! He didn’t realize that Fire Emblem 3DS wasn’t in the press kit until after he stopped talking.

Update: Another confirmation from IGN’s Rich George – see this Twitter link.

Kotaku’s Jason Schreier is stating that Fire Emblem: Awakening is due for release in North America. Apparently Reggie Fils-Aime confirmed the news just moments ago.

Now, assuming Reggie didn’t screw up and this isn’t true somehow, wouldn’t this have been good to mention during Nintendo’s E3 2012 media briefing or software showcase?
