Just like Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem’s first mobile outing will require a constant internet connection to be played. The news comes from a Nintendo spokesperson at a hands-on event. This was a controversial aspect of Super Mario Run, many players complaining that the game was eating up their data. However, it looks like Nintendo isn’t going to be lifting this requirement from their future mobile releases.
Isn’t this free to play with micro-transactions? If so, then no problem.
Is it? I haven’t seen anything on price..
That was the impression I got from the direct.
Well they just recently reported that Japanese users that are underaged would have a $100 cap a day with the add-ons. (Although, I might be confusing the game.)
We’ve all assumed that was coming,
Not surprised at all, in fact I expected this.
If people would quit pirating, this wouldn’t be an issue. >_>
Its a free game…
Free to play. People can still hack and pirate the paid stuff in the game.
}{ Nintendo will have a difficult time succeeding if they continue to fail to listen to major criticism to their previous work… This should be interesting… }{
I won’t be getting the game for this reason alone. I cannot play mobile games that constantly drain my data. Nintendo is very stubborn.
I think the issue with having it in SMR was that the game wasn’t free. This game is completely free (except micro transactions) and so it makes more sense. Piracy is a huge problem and Nintendo should have things in place to prevent it. Plus tons of free to play games do this so its not a big deal.
As some one with a collectors mentality i know i cant keep it for ever since the servers will go down one day. So i will probably also skip this game
I never thought of that. Thank you.
other non nintendo games do it and no one bats an eye, nintendo does it and the world loses its mind.
*facepalm* And just like that, they just killed off a good portion of sales from people that would actually get this. And those defending this because of people pirating, so!? Those people are gonna do this regardless of what the morons at Nintendo do to try & stop them. Just punishing the gamers that actually won’t rob them.
Nintendo… STOP

Love hurting your sales, don’t you, Nintendo?
Have fun with: reconnecting, can’t find server, please come back at a later time. The main reason why I stopped playing drm games. AND NO!!!! It was not my damn internet connection!!!!!
But, but… It’s to stop pirating! …. xD Nintendo’s fan defense division will use any excuse to defend Dumbtendo, Nintendo’s inner idiot.
I assume it’s going to be atrociously slow like Pokemon Duel. Hopefully it were like GO, but we know that doesn’t stop hackers.
