If you beat FE5 then you are probably the best FE player on TL. I gave up halfway after I lost my savefiles on easy mode. Even abusing savestates that game makes you rage.

Make it FE5 Leaf solo...<Starts crying now>

I forgot which Fire Emblem I played but it was a real blast to play. Also, Louise is fracking hot! She looked like my gf at the time, so yes, I fantasised about a GBA character -_-

dude, all Fire Emblems are so good!!! they are really epic and the story line just drags you in like no other. Shadow Dragon was really good too. so glad i got into the game series that japan hid from us XD

I probably put more time into FE7 than all other games combined when I was young. Everything about the game, story, music, graphics, animation, all so good. I still put on the soundtrack when I play Starcraft occasionally.
I'm sure the story wouldn't seem so good if I played through it again now, but I remember it having so many of those sad little moments. A lot of characters had interesting little narratives of their own, Matthew's in particular was always my favorite.
I've played a little bit of the newer ones, but they never seemed quite as well done as Rekka no Ken or Sacred Stones.

I looked up Dolphin and a Youtube vid of someone playing Path of Radiance on it, and there seem to be quite a few glitches on there... I'll download Dolphin after I finish FE8 and give it a go, but has anyone here played Path of Radiance on the Dolphin before and experienced major issues with the glitches? I don't want the game crashing on me every chapter or something like that.

Yeah, FE7's my favorite FE so far too, and I definitely recommend you go look for the FE6 ROM and play FE6 if you haven't before and loved FE7! It's more difficult than FE7 but you'll see some familiar characters from FE7 and might go on a nostalgia trip like I did lol.

Does anyone know the best place for FE ROMS.
I litteraly just was playing FE8 Scorched Sand and pressed save, THEN BAM OMFG save file locked and then the emulator reset and I was back at homescreen. My save file bugged out or something and I can't get back in.

Currently playing through Radiant Dawn hard mode, attempting to avoid ripping my hear out of my head but it's not working so far.
I'd heard it's harder than hard mode of any of the others, but I didn't really believe it until I started playing it. God damn Micaiah's party sucks balls.

It's so easy to break the game with. :I Out of curiosity, does anyone know some characters to sacrifice to continue the Gaiden plot in Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon? I'm at a complete loss on who to sacrifice. The mages are so good and for some reason characters that I want to sacrifice have had beastly level ups  I can't give you the best advice on that because I only played through it once, but basically look at the reclasses of all of them. I have heard people say Wolf is the best character in the game, but I think they reclassed him to hero or something. BTW Marth is amazing in Shadow Dragon and brawl lol. He pwns Ike in Brawl. like badly Speaking of OP units, but in Path of Radiance, has anybody done this: In the first mission with the base, forgot which that is, just BEXP the crap out of Boyd until he classes up? You can wreck that mission if you get him anywhere close to warrior. Same thing with Haar in Radiant Dawn btw. For a while he is absolutely unstoppable. and edward. I have never not had him max all stats besides 1-2. I have played that one like 5 times at least LOL @ Eliwood btw hahaha haha

FE5 was a nightmare. I remember those levels with over 9000 ballista/catapult things. You're basically sitting there hoping they all miss. I really, really liked the stealing system in that game, though.
Anyway, I can't wait for the fan translation patch to be done for the second DS remake. Shame Nintendo isn't bringing it to the U.S -_-;;
Also, did anyone else actually really love Radiant Dawn? For some reason it wasn't so well received in reviews, but I honestly think it was one of the best FEs. Battle animations were superb, story was great, and all-in-all it was an awesome sequel. The Greil Mercenaries were hilariously OP in it, though.

Love all FEs. Have played Shadow Dragon like 10 times.

i am glad someone did this thread i love fire emblem
i have a question: which fire emblem is the hardest? because i played the gba ones and they were herp derp-like difficult. i love the game but i want a true challenge. can you help me please?
thanks in advance :D

To be perfectly honest, the current fan translation is enough to play through the game completely, just lacking the story/plot, though the story is mostly the same one for FE3, except with the inclusion of the some extra characters and a couple of chapters. I can understand why one may want to wait for it to be finished, but if anyone is more of a fan of the tactical gameplay with no compulsions of knowing the storyline, you can feel free to try it out.
My main problem with Radiant Dawn is that it's mainly imbalanced in a way, i.e. + Show Spoiler +The Greil Mercenaries are kinda overpowered but Micaiah's party vastly underpowered due to low levels.

Shadow Dragon pissed me off later on because it got laughably easy. It was a mistake to keep all the stats of enemies the same as they were in the original, yet increase the stat cap for your units to 30. Everyone becomes stupidly weak. Obviously, playing on the hardest difficult is a good option, but I'm just saying that normal was waaaay too easy to be called "normal". They built up Camus to be some ridiculous badass and my Cain/Abel just roflstomped him easily.

I really want to experience the story though, so I'll wait for it to finish.
I agree that they had balance problems with the party. One of the funnier parts was when the Dawn Brigade faced off against the Greil Mercenaries. Pure hilarity in how outclassed the Fail Brigade was. Nolan's a badass, though.

I love Fire Emblem. I've played the GBA ones numerous times ( Including FE6 ), watched LP's of Radiant Dawn and Path of Radiance. I even gave FE4 a go ( or FE5? The one with Sigurd ) and the Japan only DS FE game. My favourite is probably FE7.

On normal mode, probably FE5, though Shadow Dragon H5 and FE12 Lunatic Reverse gives it quite a challenge.
You can also try some FE Hacks that up the difficulty though, but can sometimes be completely unfair and downright evil...

Oh yea. Not saying that it was the best or anything and it did get really easy after a bit. I only played it that much cause it was portable and I was on the bus alot. My favorite would have to be FE5 cause of difficulty.
