Yep. Announced almost two weeks ago.

I have no interest in it, because FE1 aged horribly. It's also another Nintendo title that will only be available for a limited time.

I might have gotten it, but the limited time thing is just bothering me. I got the Super Mario collection cause I was gonna anyway, but I think that if Nintendo keeps pulling this shit in the future I won't buy stuff I was interested in, just because I don't wanna support the concept.

Also I'm just confused that Nintendo could be assed to localize FE1, but they can't be bothered putting FE7, 8 and Path of Radiance on the Switch.

For sure.

I hope they bring over the others, but I doubt it.

You can only buy it for a limited time. They're janking the digital version off stores in March, I think.

Haven't played 4. And I do prefer 3H as an individual game over either PoR and RD. But Tellius as a whole is #1 for me.

I'm actually almost done rebeating Ike's games right now. RD is great, but it overstays its welcome really hard.

What about Fire Emblem 2?

Speaking of FE, one of the best Genesis series of all time was the Shining series. Any chance that comes to Switch? (lemme guess it already has.)

The issue I have with Tellius is that PoR on its own is fairly simple. Id put it at Awakenings level. There were a lot of loose ends and things left unresolved so its pretty obvious they had a sequel in store.
And then RD. It was amazing up to act 4 where it then dropped the ball so hard it became some of the worst writing Ive ever seen in FE. Thanks to it I absolutely loathe the trope of psychotic, genocidal, war crime committing generals being led by cool sympathetic, nuanced, and heavily marketable anti-villains who are later redeemed even though countless atrocities are on their hands. Blood pact is worse than Fates bubble curse.

Also RD had some of the worst unit and level balance in the series and other bad game design like the lack of supports, not knowing when you cant use a character beforehand, skills just being a second critical, and invisible items. Also bloated ally/neutral units making turns last for minutes even with animations turned off.

It was still an enjoyable game that was deeper and more complex for a good portion of the story but it had a lot of flaws that adds up to me not agreeing with all the praise as the best games of FE so many people give it.

Your complaints are well founded, particularly the lack of balance. I never got offput by Part 4 like a lot of people have though. The RD story on its own is still way better than boring Awakening's and disastrous Fates.

Agreed. Fates story is pure garbage lol. Especially Conquests which is the worst in the series which is awkward when they tied the best gameplay to it.

Shadow Dragon?

It's good to actually play, but everything else about it kind of sucks. The story and characters are bland and the art/graphical style looks genuinely awful.

Also had to kill off like 80% of your party to unlock the bonus levels and characters.

No you don't.

There's a reason why they sold horribly and it was NOT a lack of advertising.

*New Nintendo games. Hes the epitome of grouchy grandpa. The funny thing is he accuses newer games of catering to weebs when the games he idolizes are Japanese-only games.

It's not that it's bad so much as it is very lacking. Graphics aside, it's a remake of the first game through-and-through, including the extremely basic story and less-than-one-dimensional characters. Which probably helps when you can only get the new characters by killing off a bunch of your own.
