    1. Well I guess it’s time to upgrade my membership. Fire Emblem is one my favorite series and I’ve never had a chance to play this one!

    2. Are they ever going to let us get rid of the bullshit background on sides and our stupid icon? I don’t understand why it can just be black bars on the sides and call it a day for non widescreen games

    3. I recently started playing through Fire Emblem GBA today because I was tired of waiting for Path of Radiance! Maybe I should play Donkey Kong next for DK64?

    4. Is this Japanese NSO only? Or is it just a rolling release? I don’t seem to have it. The game released in North America, so I don’t know why this would be an exclusive.

      EDIT: I had to force an update of the gamecube app. It did not update automatically.

      Finally! So hyped to replay this game. Personally the FE game I consider to be the best

      Nice, I still have my Gamecube copy of it, and the Wii Radiant Dawn sequel too.

      I’ve always thought this to be the best intro to FE, so I hope everyone who can tries this one out.

      Oh god, all the games I just bought on sale for Boxing Day are about to get ignored for something that just dropped for free.

      I’ve been wanting to play this a lot, it’s the only console Fire Emblem I haven’t played.

      Holy. Shit. I’ve been wanting to pull the trigger on engage but not wanting to and have been playing one of the Gameboy ones to hold me over. This is a big drop I’m diving in next.

    10. An accessible way to play Path of Radiance? Officially, without emulating?? What time is this and when is this happening for Radiant Dawn

    11. Oh my word! What a shadow drop! This is going to delay my backlog clearing play through of Octopath Traveller (which I have finally gotten into after a few attempts since 2019 ish…)

      Just hope I can handle the old school strategy permadeath. I am a bit rusty and out of practise.

    12. This was actually, technically, my first FE game. But back when I was a teenager I didn’t like the permadeath and had no idea about it going in. I tried, but dropped it after a couple missions and traded it into GameStop.

      Always wanted to revisit it.

      Recently got Three Houses, but the text is so small I can barely play it. I’ll try this one out. yes I know about the pressing the home button twice, but that just takes me out of the experience.

    14. FUCKING FINALLY!!! 😀

      Been struggling to emulate this properly for a while on my deck. It keeps crashing mid battle and i have to rely on save states to save my progress :/ and i’m not shilling out £200 for a used copy on eBay…

      Will gladly pay to upgrade to the expansion tier on NSO for this tonight 🙂 it’s a phenomenal game. A little easy at times compared to the successors due to being the first home console FE, but still a great story with a great cast and fun battles to boot 🙂

      I hope they one day put Wii games on the service too. Just so we can get radiant dawn too and utilise the save carry over features 🙂
