Fire Emblem heads to Nintendo Switch Online's GBA selection



The very first officially localized Fire Emblem game is being added to the Nintendo Switch Online game collection. Starting June 23rd, you'll be able to play Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade as part of the GBA lineup for Nintendo Switch Online's Expansion Pack.

Featuring all the fierce tactical combat and rich, intrigue-filled storytelling the series is known for, Fire Emblem was the first installment in the series to launch outside of Japan. Plus, it also marked the debut of the hero Lyn, who you may know as the Emblem of Blazing from Fire Emblem Engage!

I'm kind of sad to see that the tendency of newest consoles generations almost need you to have an online connection to live a 'complete' experience. And then, you need to create an account, bla bla bla.
True.

Gran Turismo 7 is a great fun game, but in order to play the full game it requires an internet connection. 😕

It´s good to know its there, i might play it in the future. Even though i can play it on my 3DS, i much more prefer to have it in an official way and have it on my Switch.

I'll be in the minority here and say that I think the expansion pass offers a good deal for those without a modded Switch. It wasn't always that way, but with the total contents now I feel the $10 a year is a great price. Yes, $10 a year. It's extremely easy to find people to join a family plan. On my second year now with a group of random people I've never met in my life.

nintendo please just hurry the fuck up and release kirby and the amazing mirror THEN i might consider buying your stupid fucking stupid shit console with its stupid shit subscription service.
Through a little trick called "emulation," you can play this game on anything with a screen. Saves ya 60$ and the wait for Nintendo's drip feed

You think i dont know that? I even have it on my TOTALLY NOT HOMEBREWED 2ds lel
I know that emulation exists; it's my main source of gaming. But im speaking about all the casual people who DONT know emulation exists. They'll have to wait eons just to play some stick rotating game (im not dissing kuru kuru kururin, i love that game)

I mean, that's a video game company becomes when it is led by a bunch if business men :(
I miss sir Satoru :cry:
Most of what you see Nintendo doing comes from the plan Satoru left, don't think for a second that he is a saint.
Same thing as Myamoto, they became corporate through and through.

The broad strokes of what Nintendo will follow for quite a bit were set a few years back.

Games as a service, limited internet capabilities, etc, were not decided last year, much less after the Switch launched.

I mean, i agree on the fact that hardware were never their forte.
But in this case, in this thread, your comment doesn't apply.
I replyed to someone (an admin btw) who was complaining about the NSO+
Can you say that during Iwata's time, we had to pay for playing online?

pure bs the new guy in charge don't know or care about his name is a hardcore japenese businessman who only cares about $ that's why nintendo are joke now. Satoru was NEVER like this he actually cared unlike this new guy just run the company's good name into the ground to make a profit no matter what!

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze

  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
