Nintendo Australia has announced release dates for Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn and Harvest Moon Magical Melody. According to the info, Harvest Moon is due on April 3, while Fire Emblem fans can expect the goods on April 10.
Yes, we’ve had to wait a while for Fire Emblem. But it’s here. Almost. It’s hard to imagine Japanese gamers have been playing it since February of last year. Let’s hope Nintendo is working hard on sorting out that whole “localisation” thing.

Intelligent System’s other strategic, story-driven series, Fire Emblem, is also getting an update with Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn for the Wii. Unlike Advance Wars: Days of Ruin, however, the newest Fire Emblem doesn’t radically change the turn-based strategic role-playing game formula, instead tweaking the series’ long-standing conventions to add more depth for fans and give newcomers an easier way in. The biggest change in the series? Battle saves. They’ll allow players to save in the midst of a battle, a feature impossible in previous games that was a gripe for the less hardcore.
