So. Fire Emblem.

I've been playing the Sacred Stones a lot recently, and its good.

Being the person I am I want to get to grips with this series so.. after some wikipeding here are the results:

1st came a Japanese version which contained Marth.

Marth game in game #3 too.

Roy and Marth were both in #4.

Roy came to in #6, for the Gameboy Advance.

Then came Fire Emblem for the Gameboy Advance, the first game to be released in the US and Europe. This featured Lyn (the assist trophy in Smash Bros Brawl) and someone called Eliwood who looks remarkably like Roy.

Fire Emblem the Sacred Stones tells the story of Eirika and Ephraim, still on the GBA. My favourite characters are Colm and Seth.

Path of Radiance came out on GameCube quite a while later, which features young Ike, as portrayed in Brawl.

Radiant Dawn includes an older Ike, and is a sequel to Path of Radiance.

phew.
