Because we are doing a Theme Week For Fire Emblem, I thought that it is only fair to share my thoughts on the series as well. To be honest, I am not much of a Fire Emblem Fan, not because of not liking it, but because FE and I have never really collided. I have always been a home console gamer and I don’t dabble much with Handhelds, so I have never experienced a Fire Emblem title, though I have always enjoyed RPG and strategy games.
My only real experience with FE comes from maining characters like Ike, Marth & Robin in Super Smash Bros For Wii U (and Ike & Marth in Smash Bros Brawl Wii) and playing a demo of Fire Emblem: Fates Conquest at Barcelona Games World last year. After my experience with FE: Fates, I can see why people enjoy it so much and I would certainly look forward to playing Fire Emblem Warriors on the Nintendo Switch when it comes out and also Fire Emblem Heroes on Mobile Devices later this week. I see these titles as a stepping stone to encourage gamers to look at other franchises other than those that they are accustomed to and by using their most favourable characters from the series, I am sure these two titles will win plenty of hearts over in time for Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows Of Valentia when it releases on 3DS.
I have fond memories of playing with the Fire Emblem Characters in Smash Bros Wii U and watch my Brother and Sister play with Ike & Robin and pound the absolute hell out of each other that it is quite a spectacle to watch. I find Marth is a good character in Smash along with Lucina as they have quite powerful counters that can instantly change the flow of battle.

I didn’t even know Fire Emblem existed until I saw Marth and Roy in Super Smash Bros. on the Nintendo 64. I loved the two GBA games when they arrived in North America. I also played through Awakening which was another amazing experience. I do love the series, I just don’t have much time for it unfortunately.
I think you mean Smash Bros Melee. I have played with Marth and Ike in SSB Brawl but never really had interest in playing their own games. A reader of ours has advised me to play Fire Emblem: Awakening. So I shall give it a go just to get a better knowledge of the series.
Oops! You’re right. Thanks for the correction (my memory is terrible, haha).
Awakening is a great game! I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Thanks, I shall let you know how it goes once I get it
