Basically this will be the first Nintendo game to feature paid DLC. And you know what else? It basically confirms DLC for Wii U AND 3DS. And with Smash 4 coming up...
KTNXBAI. Off to grind up some cash so I can pig out on Smash DLC.
I though nintendo was against making people pay for DLC?

Apparently not.
People kept asking so the Big N delivered.
Now if only they gave free game demos...
And whatever it is they're gonna put in the DLC, why not just include it in the game? If they go overboard with it like Capcom because they know people will buy it regardless, and they're games become more and more lazy and lackluster because of it, then... f*ck.
I was always under the impression Nintendo didn't believe in suppliying extra content for a price... I can't remember where I read that.
Welcome to the World, it was only a matter of time.
Besides, Nintendo usually makes no DLC at all.

DLC's Items are additional and arent required, like AT ALL.
So if you really want that random crap- you go pay for it.
Shouldn't this be in news and current events in the gaming section?
'When you pay for a game, you should get the entire game, with additional content being a free download unless it's some massive new expansion.' This is what Nintendo USED to believe.. especially when they announced that the 3DS could support DLC. Now they throw that out the windo and go, "yup, we're gonna ask for more money like every other company we bagged before, when we said they were doing the wrong thing."
Personally I have no problem with Paid DLC, I just don't buy it. But when Nintendo goes "We do not support this".... well, it was Reggie who said it after all. Bloody tosser.

The fact that some content doesn't get a polish before release is fine, but when it's actually planned it is extremely annoying... So I'm with you there.

yeah right bro, tell that to yer hairdresser.
DLC is touchy for me - free DLC, give me it and I'll deal with it.
Paid DLC - I need to weigh the cost verses expansion and gameplay and worthiness of my money.

The DLC was part of a deal with the main game, which was cheap as chips, so that doesn't count.
And I never payed for DLC in that game, I just complained about the prices
If they plan on making DLC for Fire Emblem, why not just put it in the game?

Because they want money, silly.
Or because it's not something that's needed for the story. If it isn't needed there's no reason it can't be downloadable. I just hope they aren't jagoffs that expect me to pay $7 bucks per character when there are ENTIRE GAMES that cost that much.
