I;m finding earthbound to be a slog, but real excited for this one. I even managed to snag a physical copy that should be here June 1st just in time to start this. ( I also voted for Hollow knight by virtue of I already own it)
I absolutely love this series (backlog club) it forced me to beat a run of slay the spire and tackle some others i've been neglecting. Looking forward to finally sitting down with earthbound.
This is such a great idea, and I finished my first run, such a fun game I don't think would have had the time to get back to had this post not existed. Thanks!
I'm so flippin excited for this and hope it sells well enough that Nintendo/Intelligent systems sees both can coexhist and they can get cracking on an new advanced wars.
They won't offer anything meaningful to nintendo switch online until September of next year to keep everybody signed up before subscriptions lapse. That's when you'll see some n64 or gba games.
@Tyranexx agreed it got me into the series. I had bought it digitally initially because I couldn't find it physical around me. Just last week I realized it's a possibility I lose that at some point and picked up a physical on ebay.
@Tyranexx You won't regret it. Sacred stones is dragging for me but when I first picked it up when the switch was about to release. I played them as Awakening, echoes, then fates/conquest
Just last night I was lookingat awakening and echoes deciding which to go through first on hardest difficulty/permadeath. Landed on awakening since it's been the longest since i've played it.
It's a bit of a mixed bag. This is a fantastic series that everybody should play while at the same time this game isn't for everybody. That said if you are even remotely on the fence(Play the demo?) Get it.
@Syntaxkita I'm that person who travels for pinball. What farsight provides is great and zen grabbing up this licence is only going to help grow real pinball.
Anybody on the fence, just do it. This is such a fantastic franchise that isn't like anything else. Plus I want 1-3 re-releases that aren't on psp or fan translations.
Created an account just to pop in and say I've got this on the ps4 and the switch (you know, for portability!) and it's absolutely worth the money. Hoping for more tactical games like this on the switch moving forward.

@tyranexx Absolutely play echoes first. It's a fantastic game from start to finish. It's an absolute gem.
Re: Nintendo Has Relaunched Its Fire Emblem Portal Website, Exciting Things On The Way?
Yes. I'm very much looking forward to this.
@newadvent It's not as good as echoes or awakening but all three fates came together really well and I felt worth the price.
