Nintendo shares statement about Fire Emblem Fates’ localization

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 24 Comments

Yesterday, some news emerged regarding the change of some content for Fire Emblem Fates in the west. What we heard was specifically about “controversial dialogue” in the game.

Siliconera reached out to Nintendo and received a lengthier comment about Fire Emblem Fates’ localization. Here’s the company’s full response:

“Making changes is not unusual when we localize games, and we have indeed made changes in these games. When we localize a game we do so in order to make it appropriate for that particular territory. All our choices were made from that point of view.”
“In the Conquest edition a male main character created by the gamer can pair up with another male character (Niles) which ultimately leads to marriage. Similarly, in the Birthright edition, a female main character created by the gamer can pair up with and eventually marry another female character (Rhajat). Like married couples of the opposite gender, these same-sex couples enjoy the stat boosts that come with marriage, which means when they are paired up in battle they are stronger than when they are apart or paired up with another character.”
“In the third edition, Revelation, that will be released as DLC in the eShop on March 10, a same-sex marriage is possible regardless of the sex of your main character, as both Niles and Rhajat can be encountered in this edition.”
