Switch welcomes Fire Emblem for Game Boy Advance

Exciting News: Super Mario Advance Series Coming to Switch Online + Expansion Pack Service on June 23

After a period of anticipation, the Switch Online + Expansion Pack service is set to receive new games from the beloved Super Mario Advance series. Furthermore, on June 23, another Game Boy Advance (GBA) gem, Fire Emblem, will join the roster.

This particular entry in the series is titled Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade and holds historical significance as the first localized release outside of Japan. Originally released in 2003 on the GBA, it played a pivotal role in introducing the Fire Emblem franchise to a global audience. The localization process during the ’90s added an interesting touch to its name, giving birth to the “Fire Emblem” title we know today.

A Glimpse into the Fascinating World of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade

Despite being a prequel to 2002’s The Binding Blade, Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade stands on its own as an exceptional entry in the series. Whether you’re a long-time fan or a newcomer, this game offers an excellent starting point to engage in conversations with fellow Fire Emblem enthusiasts.

Nintendo provides a brief summary of the plot:

“In Fire Emblem [The Blazing Blade], the nation of Lycia finds itself on the brink of war after centuries of peaceful existence. As noble houses plot treason and alliances crumble, armies prepare for battle. Meanwhile, a mysterious figure manipulates empires from the shadows. Join Lyn, Eliwood, and Hector as they assemble their own army to combat the forces that threaten their world. Your journey will involve recruiting heroes, training them in various weapon and class specialties, and honing their skills on the battlefield. Strategic thinking is crucial, as you navigate through diverse terrains and conditions to achieve victory by meeting specific objectives. Beware, though: in this iteration of Fire Emblem, the death of a soldier is permanent.”

Yes, this is the Fire Emblem experience! As a passionate fan and someone who holds this game dear, I highly recommend giving it a try, especially on a rainy weekend when you’re seeking some entertainment.
