Today marks the final opportunity for My Nintendo members to cast their votes in the highly anticipated 'Choose Your Legends' event, a special campaign tied to the launch of Fire Emblem Heroes.
The tactical role-playing game, developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo, is scheduled for release on February 2 for compatible mobile devices.
Since its announcement during the January 18 Nintendo Direct presentation—an event renowned for its impactful updates and announcements—Fire Emblem Heroes has captured the attention of strategy fans worldwide.
The Choose Your Legends event is an exclusive initiative for My Nintendo members, allowing the community to select their favorite heroes and heroines from across the rich history of the Fire Emblem franchise.
The voting campaign is designed not only to celebrate the series' legacy but also to directly influence the roster of characters featured in Fire Emblem Heroes at launch and future updates.
As Nintendo detailed in a recent statement, each registered My Nintendo participant is eligible to vote for the hero and heroine of their choice by signing in with their Nintendo Account.
The company is rewarding user engagement with 200 platinum Nintendo Points, which can be redeemed for a variety of digital content on the eShop, such as downloadable Nintendo 3DS themes and select games.
This incentive highlights Nintendo’s ongoing commitment to building a robust loyalty system within their digital ecosystem.
Throughout the event period, Nintendo has engaged fans by releasing limited-edition downloadable Fire Emblem calendars and by regularly sharing current vote tallies.
These updates not only kept the competition lively but also fostered community excitement and discussion across social media and fan hubs.
To participate, members must log in to their Nintendo Account and navigate to the official Choose Your Legends voting webpage.
The user-friendly portal consolidates all Fire Emblem characters—spanning mainline entries and spin-offs—making it easy for voters to support their favorites.
After making their selection, voters will automatically receive their platinum point reward, further incentivizing involvement.
Fire Emblem Heroes is poised to become a cornerstone title for Nintendo’s mobile platform strategy, bringing the celebrated turn-based tactics gameplay from consoles like the Nintendo Switch and 3DS to a wider, mobile audience.
The engagement around Choose Your Legends is a testament to the enduring appeal of the Fire Emblem series, which enjoys a passionate following thanks to its deep lore, compelling characters, and strategic gameplay mechanics.
Fans are encouraged to make their voices heard before the event’s conclusion later today.
