Out of my many years of collecting Fire Emblem Special Editions, this is one the better ones thus far. This is what a Special Edition should be all about.



It should not be all about forcing people to buy this edition due to it having the full game on the cart, while the regular edition forces everyone else to download the rest of the game.



It should not have a bunch of cheap extras at an over-exaggerated price.



It should be about having an edition of the game that you could be proud to own whether you have those extras or not. I for one am proud that Nintendo didn't mess this one up. FE14 was a disaster, FE15's could have been better, despite getting certain aspects right about it.



Now this edition comes with the full game on the cart. No cheapouts. No stupid download codes. No having to download the language options like they did with FE Warriors and Xenoblade 2. The delayed release was worth the wait. The game runs smooth as butter. Everything they learned from making FE14 in regards to the decision point is made 90 times better in this game. The replay value is massive and the support unlocks are what's gonna consume the most time when it comes to being complete.



In addition to the game itself, it comes with a steel book game case, an art book, an OST disc of select tracks, and a calendar for those that care about unique ones. That calendar could have been something better. But got to take this Special Edition for what it is. Mostly got this for the steel book case. The regular edition cover didn't cut it for myself.



No new Amiibo to came out in tandem to this release. FE15 had Alm and Celica. This one didn't. Who knows if Byleth will be getting one later on. Yet we can all hope, and hope that it aint gonna be a Player 2 situation. Yet, if you have any of the existing FE Amiibos to this point in time, you could access extra soundtracks that are on the cart when you scan them in. There are hints that a FE6 remake is on the way. There was one in FE15, and one in this game as well.



If you are a huge Fire Emblem Player, this is the edition you want to get! You won't be disappointed.
