A little bit of additional information has come in pertaining to Fire Emblem If, the series’ upcoming concert, and the Fire Emblem Cipher trading card game.

First, it’s been announced that “Renka” is the person behind Aqua’s song in the Fire Emblem If trailers. Serenes Forest reports that “Aqua’s singing voice is unique, possessing a pure and divine quality, with the ability to represent both strength and fragility.” The team “knew she was the one” after looking at a number of candidates and hearing Renka sing for the first time.

Fire Emblem If’s main theme song is “if ~hitori omou“. That roughly translates to “if ~ one’s thoughts”.

The theme song is due out as a single on July 1. It will be sold both as a CD for 1,296 yen and a limited edition CD/DVD bundle for 1,836 yen. The latter package contains two extra MVs and a reversible cover designed by Yusuke Kozaki.

Promotional displays for Fire Emblem If are already appearing inside a few stores across Japan. Only blurry pictures have been posted online thus far, which show artwork of Marx, Hinoka and Sakura and most notably Leon, Nohr’s “Dark Knight” prince. Check them out below.

Regarding Fire Emblem Cipher, there will be rare cards signed by the characters’ Japanese voice actors. We’re also hearing that the Fire Emblem concert will feature at least two parts – specifically the “Hero-King” part and “Light Inheritors” part.

Comcept have publisher another update on the development process of the upcoming Mighty No. 9.

First of are more voice actors announcements, this time for the characters of Mighty No. 7 (played by J P Karliak), Mighty No. 8 (played by Steve Blum), Dr. Sanda (played by Dave Wittenberg), Dr. White (played by Jason Spisak) and Mr. Graham (played by Scott Whyte). Check out their performances in the video below:

Comcept also announced the full Japanese cast for the game:

Finally, Comcept published an FAQ about the recently announced fact that Mighty No.9 will be published by Deep Silver.

Q: When will backer rewards go out?

A: All backer rewards will go out to coincide with the release date.

Q: Is it too late to change my console/platform or choice, or to update my shipping address for physical rewards?

A: It’s not too late! We will send out a final platform selection survey closer to Mighty No. 9’s release date, you can use this survey to finalize your console/platform of choice. You have two options for updating your address information:

1) Look for a confirmation message in your email, subject line “Confirmation for Order KICKMIGHTYNO9-#XXXXXX”, with the X’s representing your personal identification code. That should have a link to the survey where you can update your address.

2) Fangamer will send out a final address confirmation survey prior to shipping, so please be on the lookout for that a couple months before release!

Q: Can I upgrade my Kickstarter pledge to the recently-announced physical version?

A: The new physical retail version is manufactured and distributed by Deep Silver, and is separate from the disc, USB add-ons and other rewards offered during the original Kickstarter campaign. Therefore, the retail version is not applicable towards redemption of Kickstarter backer rewards.

Q: That’s not fair, I backed at the ____ level to get a USB/disc/etc. because there wasn’t a physical version! You should let me change/update my pledge!

A: While we love that you’re excited from Deep Silver’s retail release of Mighty No. 9, the aforementioned separation between Kickstarter and retail versions currently makes this impossible: As of now, the process involves two different manufacturers (Fangamer and Deep Silver) and multiple distributors (Humble Bundle, and Deep Silver’s regional distributors) for the Kickstarter and retail versions of the game. That’s why making this change would not as simple as upgrading your pledge. That being said, rest assured that your feedback has been heard and passed on to the appropriate channels.

Check out the full update here.

Mighty No. 9 will be released for Wii U this September, with a 3DS version to follow at a later date.

This month’s issue of Nintendo Dream has a lengthy interview with some of the folks responsible for the Pokemon games. The magazine chatted with Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire director Shigeru Ohmori, Ken Sugimori (art director), Shigeki Morimoto (battle director), Kazumasa Iwao (game designer).

Some of the most interesting comments came about when the interview focused on the topic of Mega Evolutions. Nintendo Dream asked about things like criteria for Mega Evolutions, why Slowbro was chosen to go through the process rather than Slowking, and more.

Head past the break for our full translation of Nintendo Dream’s Pokemon Mega Evolution discussion.
