It's almost time for Nintendo to talk about their plans for the Fire Emblem series. The direct will feature Fire Emblem "titles", as in plural, so it's sure to be interesting. Stay tuned with GBAtemp, as there will be live coverage of the direct, which starts at 5pm ET, as well as a fact roundup after the video has ended.

I hear quite a few bitching about the phone screen being too small for them to play this on... Do we need reminding that 'Blazing Blade & Sacred Stones' +..both for the GBA and also easily playable on GB Micros 1" X 2" screen? I wouldn't miss it for anything.

The bitching comes from the size of the maps, not from the size of the screen.
In GBA the maps were... Ok, not huge, just Ok, they spanned across several screens, you scrolled around and there was more map.
In this versions the maps are a 6x8 grid that fit in the screen, no scrolling, that is all the map there is, and it is so small I understand the complains because it limits how much strategy can be applied to it.

I like it anyway.

1 mission could be multiple 6x8 grids, also its designed for quick play sessions so 6x8 is perfect.

Milk the old IPs, just like ol' Nintendo

Milk 'em the right way.

Btw, will be pre-ordering Echoes when it goes live on Amazon UK and keep it as a sealed copy.

Super Mario Run was fine (one time purchase).

Nintendo listened to the wrong crowd and now their games will have IAPs.
