Yes, I wondered where that attractive girl named Marth was from.

Whoa, didn't expect it to be so one sided. Was only the 2nd no in 22 votes
tbqh i was surprised to see even 3 people had heard of it before Melee

Got to thinking about it. I had forgotten that I was really late to the game on melee. I didn't buy it until around 2004 or 2005. And I'd already played FE7 for gba by that point. I wasn't considering that melee was out a couple years before FE7.
Voted nay but on second thought yay might actually be the right answer.
I mean the first Fire Emblem game I played did come out after Melee, but I swore I'd heard of it before then, and I didn't play it because of Melee either. So it's hard to be sure, really.

No problem!

No but it was my first real exposure to it
No. I learned about it from gaming magazines talking up the series when they released a game on the GBA (I think). I played some, never figured out how to game the system, and gave up on it.
I wish the poll had more choices so we could know how many of the "Nay" voters had heard of Fire Emblem before Melee came out versus how many just didn't play Smash until after FE started getting releases outside Japan. I didn't even know there was an English-language following for FE before Melee.
Congrats to 2017 Guru champ BKSheikah!

I don't know about a following, but it was possible to emulate some of the SNES games, which is what I did. back then I was basically obsessed with SNES games and specifically RPGs. it got to the point where I just started playing games with japanese releases, whether I could find a good translation or not, simply because I had played almost every english released game I was already interested in.

I'd heard of it beforehand but never played it because it was only in Japanese.

Ill add more options for future polls. Im also surprised by the high percentage of yay votes.
Heck em
I saw the Fire Emblem anime at a rental store once, I guess that barely counts.

I feel like I had read about it in a magazine before Melee.
But yeah, Melee is what made me acknowledge the series.

This, aside from Pikmin.
Which is kinda awkward for me because, as it turns out, the first game I ever played was very likely Star Fox on SNES. Not that I remember it, obviously.
I'm not sure if I also saw the promotional Star Fox video as a kid too or not. My cousin might have showed it to me, but I was too busy being into PlayStation at the time.
In other words, it's just weird that I only really learned about those characters from Smash >_>
(And for those that used to watch me stream, I still have not unlocked Wolf in Brawl, 10 years later)

I remember reading about Earthbound in a magazine, then completely forgetting the game existed until I saw Ness in Smash
"Oh yea, hes from that one game with the big box"
Smash is also my first exposure to Fzero
I was confused Falcon didn't have his punch when I looked into the series afterwards

nay I remember seeing preview for "Fire Emblem 64" in Nintendo Power
which eventually got cancelled and became FE6 on GBA

Indirectly. My friend had Melee and I saw him playing Fire Emblem a little while before I started playing Smash with him.
Thus is our treaty written, thus is our agreement made. Thought is the arrow of time; memory never fades. What was asked is given; the price is paid.

No, but I guess only because I didn't own a Gamecube
I found out about Fire Emblem when Fire Emblem 7 became super popular for the GBA, which is like 2-3 years after Melee came out

A bunch of obscure stuff with trophies and songs.
