The four BS Fire Emblem chapters were later remade as [[List of bonus chapters in Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem, Heroes of Light and Shadow|bonus content]] in {{FE12}}, dubbed ''New Archanea War Chronicles''; they are the only Satellaview titles to ever be rereleased in any form.  The remakes omit many of the features unique to the originals and reframe the maps in the gameplay mechanics of the [[Nintendo DS]] remakes, also making adjustments to the number and type of enemies present in each.
