The Year That Was: Revisited

[Angrist]

I'd like to throw in Fire Emblem here.

Fire Emblem has a great concept. It's fun and addicting. It's very smart and very hard. It's the ultimate hardcore game in my opinion.

So what's happening with it? It does not sell well in the West. Why?
- Lack of popularity/marketing? The games weren't even released outside Japan until a few years ago.
- Lack of pretty grapics? Everything does look a bit dull.
- Bad presentation? It uses some cool CGI movies, but it lacks proper voice action etc.
OR:
- Wrong platform?

So I am wondering about this: would this game do better on the PS360?
On those platforms, it probably would have gotten/needed better graphics/presentation. But other than that, would the demographic have been better?
