Nice to see Fire Emblem selling well. I hope that these sales help lead to a new console FE.

Who cares how it does in Japan, the more important question--when is it coming here?  Really love my grid-based tatics game and it nice to finially get FE3, I never did bother with any of the nes roms so this title would be entirely new to me :0.
