Surprised there isn't a thread about this.

A trailer about amiibo support allowing you to use Fire Emblem characters in the game:

This looks kind of interesting.  I heard Nintendo was going to reprint Marth for this game.  This game kind of reminds me of Valkyria Chronicles.

 
Played the demo of this and its pretty fun. People have told me that it reminds them of X-COM, a game which I haven't played.

May pick this up day one if I have the coins.

 
Wasn't feeling the demo.  I still might get it pending impressions after it comes out, but I'm definitely not preordering.  It comes out the same week as Atelier Shallie anyway.

Yeah I'll probably wait for reviews before I commit. I normally don't like to play rpg type demo since you don't really get the true feel of the game in the limited time the demo has to offer.

 
Tried the demo. It really feels like a total ripoff of xcom/valkyria chronicles. Not in a good oh we are trying something new, it feels more yeah you like these, then here you go.

I do like the art style and characters though. Although I will be waiting to see how this game pans out. It lacks originality in the gameplay department, well for the demo at least.

 
The enemy turn takes way too long. I wonder if the speed will increase on the New 3DS?
I agree with this, other than that it seems fun and I'll probably pick it up on release. Ive never played Xcom or Valkyria Chronicles, so this might be a good intro to the genre.

 
New trailer showing off Abraham Lincoln piloting a GIANT STEAM-POWERED MECHA .

And yet, it won't post. ;_;

Here?

Comes out tomorrow.

Are we all excited? I know I am.

Won't be able to pick it up till this weekend as I so booked up and been playing Rune Factory 4.

But I can not wait. Fire Emblem and Valkyrie Chronicles in one game. Sign me up

 
Picked up my copy (and majora's mask pin) this morning.  Still going through the intro parts but I am enjoying the game.  My only complaint thus far is that you cant speed up the Alien movement, or switch to their view, so you're basically just stuck looking over your character's shoulder for 10+ seconds.

Now the fun game of juggling this, Hotline Miami 2, Ori, DB Xenoverse, and Monster Hunter 4U...

I think the game looks like fun, but I am personally not into that style of strategy game on a handheld. I prefer the more traditional 2-D stuff like Fire Emblem and Advanced Wars (wish this was a new game in that series), but it's good to see a new Nintendo IP regardless. I think we will see this go on sale pretty quickly and for that reason I will wait. 

 
Finally got around to buying Codename Steam. I've played through the first few levels and so far it's pretty fun. It does take some time to learn the gameplay but it definitely delivers some fun time strategy/action gameplay. I only hope it doesn't get repetitive.
