The updates in the 'Legacy Edition' of FIFA 14 (http://www.joystiq.com/game/fifa-14) include new kits and rosters, but not anything to do with gameplay, according to a Nintendo press release. Although Nintendo's details are noted for the 3DS version, EA is also releasing the Legacy Edition on Vita, PSP, and PS2 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Electronic-Arts-FIFA-PlayStation-Vita/dp/B00E4LGDIE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1379937240&sr=8-1&keywords=fifa+14+legacy+edition), indicating the same lack of update on those platforms. EA previously confirmed (http://www.joystiq.com/2013/08/23/fifa-14-on-ps-vita-a-re-skin-of-fifa-13/) to Pocket Gamer (http://www.pocketgamer.co.uk/r/PS+Vita/FIFA+14/news.asp?c=53259) that FIFA 14 on Vita is a "reskin" (Pocket Gamer's words) of FIFA 13.

This story is itself a reskin of a previous story; FIFA 13 on Vita was a similarly limited update to FIFA Football, as was FIFA 13 to FIFA 12 on the Wii (http://www.computerandvideogames.com/385833/features/fifa-13-wii-vs-fifa-12-wii-the-shocking-truth/). In short, EA has plenty of previous experience in this particular area.

FIFA 14 hits North America tomorrow, and Europe on Friday, September 27. Despite the lack of gameplay additions, Nintendo is charging a full retail price of £40 (around $65) for the eShop version. If you feel that's worth it for new names and shirts, please enjoy.
