No, we still are waiting for a NA release date for the game.

Oh yeah, Elincia, That's interesting. I thought they told enough about her in path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn. What more could they add to her?

Clearly, they thought she could do with an amazing scarf.

I'm pretty sure the DLC appearances aren't so much being used to add to the characters as they are just fanservice, given that dimensional warping is a large part of Awakening. The Marth chapter is basically "Marth, Ike, Alm and Krom have to fight all the old female main characters due to random warps and summons", and the other DLC Character chapters are basically "these guys are fighting these guys, Krom gets dragged in".

There might be a little bit of information about the characters that we didn't see in their respective games, but probably not much more than you'd see in one individual support conversation.

Other than that, I've seen that image so many times how did I not notice that the map is the inside of the Dragons Gate from FE7?

Regardless of character development, an appearance from past games is a brilliant idea. Coming from the Wii, seeing downloadable content is something that makes me very, very happy! I'm on the chapter of the Demon King is Fire Emblem 7 right now, so that map looks really familiar!
