Cordelia and Female Robin revealed for Fire Emblem Warriors
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in New Nintendo 3DS, News, Switch | 23 Comments
The next two characters coming to Fire Emblem Warriors have been revealed – Cordelia and Female Robin from Fire Emblem Awakening. This reveal comes to us via the preview for this week’s Famitsu magazine, so we don’t have a whole lot of information at this point. We do know that Cordelia uses lances and fights from the back of her pegasus. We don’t know much about Female Robin yet – is she a separate character from Male Robin? Or merely a different skin you can choose?
We will have more information once we get our hands on the full issue of Famitsu tomorrow.

Nintendo says New 3DS’ discontinuation in Japan has no impact on America
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in New Nintendo 3DS, News | 60 Comments
Earlier today, we learned that the New 3DS has come to an end in Japan. Nintendo is discontinuing the system, though the New 3DS XL will continue to be sold.
In a statement, Nintendo told GamesIndustry that the news has no impact on America since “the model in question was only sold in limited quantities as special offerings.”
Nintendo of America says:
“This announcement does not affect Nintendo of America territories, as the model in question was only sold in limited quantities as special offerings. There are no changes to the sales status of New Nintendo 3DS XL, Nintendo 2DS or the upcoming New Nintendo 2DS XL, which launches on July 28.”
The New 3DS is probably done at this point. Nintendo is now focusing on the New 3DS XL, 2DS, and the 2DS XL at this point. The last hurrah for the New 3DS in the states was likely last year’s Black Friday sale.
