All the talk of Fire Emblem is weird for me to see. I've been banging on about FE games for years and now everyone else has started playing it just as I don't have access to it anymore (no 3DS). I'm just jealous, I guess. I'd love to play it.
The problem with the older games is that they tend to have quite a high value. The one on DS (Shadow Dragon) is a remake of one of the early NES games, so is a bit light on features, but it's still solid. The best one is the GBA one (just plain Fire Emblem, not The Sacred Stones), but it's bound to be expensive.Paul the sparky wrote:It's got me going too, and I'm in the same boat regarding the 3DS.

I think that was The Secret Stones. It lacks a lot of features that made the previous game so good and has extra battles to allow grinding, which goes against the spirit of the series IMO. The basic mechanics are still solid though.retroking1981 wrote:I got the GBA Fire Emblem on the 3DS as part of that ambassador programme.

That's why I find these things pointless, though I appreciate Elf's efforts.

Shit, really?cindemon wrote:Here we go as I don't think anything is gonna change before the 31st. 1) Fire Emblem 3DS. In short(infact all of these will be short) Perfect handheld strategy game with enough depth that the casual can play it & fin & if you wanna dip those toes in, there is some serious, crazy levels of deepness with this game. Throw in the story, cutscenes, music , character dialogue & Ninty polish & you got one Hell of a title. I read somewhere that this game was make or break for the series. Intelligent Systems knocked it out of the park.

First 3DS game(& I've played a few) that the 3D effect was on for the entire length of play & boy did it really add to the experience. One & only complaint, to blooming easy. Hero mode from the off & it would of been digital perfection, tho that said, for the 18 odd hours or so, it was perfection.
