Nintendo shares new statement about Fire Emblem Fates’ petting mini-game
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 121 Comments
Nintendo has issued a new statement regarding the petting mini-game in Fire Emblem Fates. Here it is in full:
“In certain circumstances, S-Level characters are able to wake up their spouses by blowing into the microphone or by tapping the screen to touch their hair, face or shoulder. These randomly triggered events are unrelated to the mini-game in the Japanese version.”
This statement essentially confirms what we heard from GameSpot last week. Fire Emblem Fates’ petting mini-game is indeed cut in the western version. However, it’s possible to wake up spouses by tapping the screen or blowing into the 3DS’ microphone – that’s it. There’s nothing extra beyond this in the overseas release.

Rumor: Fire Emblem Fates’ western version removes some swimsuits

Update 2 (1/12): Bumped to the top. Here are some related comments from GameXplain’s Derrick Bitner:
Just some clarification on swimsuits in Fates. I have not been able to buy them yet, but if you try changing into a body accessory in the…

…accessory store, you'll see the characters in their underwear or swimsuit-type clothing. They just don't stay that way.

Update: Here’s the full stream archive for those that are interested in checking out more footage:
Original (2/10): For its overseas version, Fire Emblem Fates appears to have removed some swimsuits. GameSpot hosted a live stream of the English release earlier today which shows that only the Bath Towel can be purchased from the Accessory Shop in the body section. Meanwhile, the Japanese version featured several more such as the “Risque Swimsuit” (level 1 at the shop just like the Bath Towel).
This doesn’t seem to be a matter of GameSpot being early on in Fire Emblem Fates. Now, it’s true that we have seen footage of some characters in swimsuits via English gameplay, but that may have just been what was offered as the default option. We’ll still consider this a rumor for the time being until the situation is absolutely clarified.
Thanks to Brian for the tip.
