Fire Emblem DS: WHO IS THIS GUY?
Arro \| 1:23 PM on 10.11.2007	13 comments

See that guy? HE LOOKS STRIKINGLY FAMILIAR TO ME! I WONDER WHERE I HAVE SEEN HIM OR WHAT HIS NAME IS!?

Saracasm aside, I'm really digging the new Fire Emblem and Advance Wars for DS. I like this new gritty and (more) mature style and feel.

Square, take note of what Nintendo is doing and add what you've learned from your experiences to those atrocious Crystal Chronicle games you plan on releasing.
Little kids with melon sized heads DO NOT APPEAL TO ME!

Moar Fire Emblem is always a good thing

Variable Gear

I'm loving the art direction that Intelligent Systems is taking with FE and AW.

They are gritty but still unique.

ZeroTolo

I like the art, but like someone mentioned on the front page article that someone did, the combat sprites are looking a little iffy. So far I prefer the ones from the GBA.

More fire emblem is never a bad thing. I need a DS now.

And yeah the GBA animations are amazing

I'm glad they still have a very anime/Japanese look to them. I'm not a fan of western gritty art.

I'm liking the look of both of them. Can't wait to play them.

@ZeroTolo: FE sprites always look better in motion.

Fire Emblem is in my top 5 favorite series of all time. This new game makes me very happy. :)

ZeroTolo

@Kelfonne

I can only hope.

Arro

Bah! I was trying to point out that this game is a remake of Fire Emblem 1.

And that guy...

Yeah...he's Marth. I guess it wasn't as obvious as I thought...

Arro
