Empowering your Fire Emblem: Awakening army with StreetPass

Despite the unique and interesting qualities of the 3DS’ StreetPass and SpotPass functionality, I’ve rarely had reason to use it. So far, my favorite example of StreetPass functionality has been found in Theatrhythm: Final Fantasy, where it’s possible to swap Dark Notes and custom character cards. When Fire Emblem: Awakening launches next month, however, I expect the mileage I get from those features will increase.

At a preview event on Wednesday, Nintendo demonstrated its upcoming 3DS strategy game, giving the media a glimpse at its secondary features. My time with it left me intrigued. It’s rare to see StreetPass bonuses and DLC embedded so deeply in the single-player experience.

Fire Emblem: Awakening’s DLC plan, for the most part, has already been revealed. We’ve been aware that characters such as Marth, Roy, Ike, and other franchise luminaries will be available via an in-game variant of the eShop. What I hadn’t realized until now, however, is that there are actual rewards for completing a map in the game.Gallery: Fire Emblem: Awakening (01/11/2013)Continue reading Empowering your Fire Emblem: Awakening army with StreetPassEmpowering your Fire Emblem: Awakening army with StreetPass originally appeared on Joystiq on Fri, 11 Jan 2013 15:45:00 EST.
