Although it was a very old franchise by the time it was first released outside Japan, the Fire Emblem series has blossomed in one of the few Nintendo offerings that is not scared to cater to hard-core strategy-RPG fans and general gamer-masochists alike.

The game featured in this post was actually the second one released in America. The first one was called simply Fire Emblem (2003), but is better known as Fire Emblem: Rekka no Ken by insiders since the series gained considerable traction after its original GBA released.
