Iwata: No plans to release Fire Emblem: Awakening overseas yet
Satoru Iwata, speaking at Nintendo’s latest financial briefing, has said that Nintendo hasn’t decided on a plan to release Fire Emblem: Awakening overseas. This contradicts what we heard on the European Nintendo Direct in February.
Iwata told investors today:
“In addition, regarding “Fire Emblem Kakusei” (Japanese title), which was released last week in Japan, its initial sales figure reached the record-high in the series since the GameBoy Advance and we have received a lot of messages from the Club Nintendo members that they bought a game from the series after a long interval. Although we have not decided on a plan to release it overseas, we hope to further increase its sales.”
So did Nintendo of Europe make a mistake? Did Iwata? Did Nintendo of Europe jump the gun?
