===Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System===
The Fire Emblem series first began with the release of {{title|Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light}} for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] on April 20, 1990. It was developed by Intelligent Systems, a company previously invested in producing video game development tools. Intelligent Systems began to work on simulation games, starting with the first game of the ''[[warswiki:Wars Series|Wars]]'' series, ''[[warswiki:Famicom Wars (game)|Famicom Wars]]'', which has gameplay slightly similar to the ''Fire Emblem'' series. In 1990, ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'' was published. Although it did not have a great amount of sales in the first two weeks, sales did eventually improve.

[[Intelligent Systems]] began as a company invested in producing video game development tools. Intelligent Systems began to work on simulation games, starting with the first game of the ''[[warswiki:Wars Series|Wars]]'' series, ''[[warswiki:Famicom Wars (game)|Famicom Wars]]'', which has gameplay slightly similar to the ''Fire Emblem'' series. The Fire Emblem series first began with the release of {{FE1}} for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]] on April 20, 1990 and was developed by Intelligent Systems. Although it did not have a great amount of sales in the first two weeks, sales did eventually improve.


The second game in the series, {{FE2}} was released on March 14, 1992, also for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]]. It introduced several new gameplay changes, including a "[[Trainee]]" type class, use of a world map, and monster enemies. Most of these elements disappeared in later games before resurfacing in {{title|The Sacred Stones}}.<!--FE3--><!--FE4--><!--FE5-->
The second game in the series, {{FE2}}, was released on March 14, 1992, also for the [[Nintendo Entertainment System]]. As its name suggests, it is a side story to the original, being set in the same universe but on a [[Valentia|different continent]]. Some characters from ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'' appear but the majority of the cast is new. It introduced several new gameplay changes, including a "[[Trainee]]" type class, use of a world map, and monster enemies. Most of these elements vanished with the release of {{FE3}}, though many elements have made their way back in recent titles like {{FE8}}, {{FE13}}, and  {{FE14}}.


===GBA Era===
A direct sequel to the first game, {{FE3}}, was released on the Super NES on January 21, 1994. The game is divided into two parts; colloquially known as books or, more simply, parts. Book 1 is an abridged retelling and remake of ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light''. Book 2 is the meat of the game and a sequel to the original, featuring characters returning from the original as well as new cast additions. It returns to the original formula, but adds new features, like [[dismount]]ing and new [[weapon]]s. It also received major graphical updates, owing to releasing on the Super NES. ''Mystery of the Emblem'' is the best-selling ''Fire Emblem'' game in Japan.<ref name=FE3Sales>{{cite web|url=http://www.translan.com/jucc/precedent-2002-11-14d.html|title=日本ユニ著作権センター/判例全文・2002/11/14d 3|author=University of Japan Copyright Center|site=Translan|published=2002-11-14|retrieved=2015-03-30}}</ref>
{{title|The Binding Blade}} was the first entry of the series on the GBA, and the first portable entry in general. ''Blazing Sword'' is a prequel to this game.


{{FE7}} was the first ''Fire Emblem'' game released worldwide.<ref>http://uk.gameboy.ign.com/objects/499/499430.html</ref> Due to it being a unique game, the first part of it is a tutorial, meant to introduce new players to the gameplay of the series.<ref>http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/r_fireemblem_gba</ref>
[[File:FESK Prerelease Leaflet.jpg|thumb|150px|Prerelease leaflet for {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}}.]]
The next game in the series, {{FE4}}, released on the Super NES on May 14, 1996. It featured mostly similar gameplay to its predecessors, but it mixes things up by featuring things like massive maps, [[inventory]] changes, and an entire second generation of characters descended from the first generation of characters. Child charaters would, however, become absent until the feature's resurgence almost a decade later in {{title|Awakening}}. As of 2002, ''Genealogy of the Holy War'' was the second-best-selling ''Fire Emblem'' game, having sold an estimated 498,216 copies in its original Super Famicom print run.<ref name=FE3Sales></ref> The official US English website for {{FE7}} alleges that ''Genealogy'' was the most successful ''Fire Emblem'' game in Japan,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://old.serenesforest.net/gba/launch/history/index.html|title=History of Fire Emblem|site=Fire Emblem (archived by Serenes Forest)|published=2003|retrieved=2015-04-17}}</ref> but it is uncertain how true this claim is in light of all other evidence pointing to {{FE3}} historically holding that title.


{{title|The Sacred Stones}} was the last ''Fire Emblem'' game to be released on the GBA. It is a standalone title in terms of story and universe, the only ''Fire Emblem'' 'universe' to only have one game in its continuity.
After ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', {{FEBS}} aired on the [[wikipedia:Satellaview|Satellaview]] peripheral on the Super NES, and featured four single-map scenarios taking place before the events of ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light''. Overall it is minor aspect of the series, and is often overlooked.


===3D Games===
Closing the Super NES era is {{FE5}}, which was one of the last games released on the Super NES, releasing on the Nintendo Power flash cartridge service on September 1st, 1999, and getting a proper physical release on January 21st, 2000. ''Thracia 776'' takes place during the second generation of ''Genealogy of the Holy War'', and focuses on events occurring in [[Thracia]]. The gameplay returns mostly to the style of ''Mystery of the Emblem'', but adds new mechanics like [[capture]], [[fog of war]], and a comparative wealth of new chapter [[objective]]s. ''Thracia 776'' is often conisdered by fans to be one of the more difficult, if not the most difficult, titles in the series. ''Thracia 776'', unfortunately, holds the title of the worst-selling ''Fire Emblem'' title, presumably due to its late release and unusual distribution method; initially it could only be obtained by downloading it to a special Super NES cartridge through Nintendo Power.
<!--FE9--><!--FE10-->


===DS Remakes===
===Nintendo 64===
After the [[Nintendo DS]] was introduced, {{title|Shadow Dragon}} was introduced. Being a remake of the original game, ''Shadow Dragon'' was just a remake for Japanese buyers, though the story was new for worldwide players. Later, to celebrate the series twentieth anniversary, a remake of the second half of the third game of the series was released, though only in Japan. This was the first game since the series had hit worldwide shelves to be released exclusively in Japan.
[[File:Ss fe06 preliminary dialogue1.jpg|200px|thumb|The only known screenshot of ''[[Fire Emblem 64]]''.]]
While no ''Fire Emblem'' games ever released on the Nintendo 64, there was one title known to be in development. Unfortunately, very little of this game was released to the public, aside from the fact that it existed at all. Colloquially known as [[Fire Emblem 64]] among fans, it did have some information about it released in [[The Making of Fire Emblem – 25th Anniversary Development Secrets, Awakening and Fates|The Making of Fire Emblem]], a book released in late 2015, which revealed that this title was heavily retooled and would eventually become {{FE6}}, which is mentioned below.
{{Clear}}
===Game Boy Advance games===
[[File:FEFT Prerelease Flyer.jpg|150px|thumb|Prerelease flier for {{Title|The Binding Blade}}.]]
{{FE6}} was the first portable game and first game released after the departure of [[Shouzou Kaga]]. Releasing on the Game Boy Advance on March 22nd, 2002 it is what ''Fire Emblem 64'' eventuated as. ''The Binding Blade'' features typical ''Fire Emblem'' gameplay, playing similarly to the Super NES titles, though mechanics like [[dismount]] and [[capture]] are not featured. ''The Binding Blade'' takes place in a different universe than previous titles, featuring the continent of [[Elibe]]. Of note, the game's main character, [[Roy]] appeared in {{SSBM}} alongside [[Marth]], and brought the series to somewhat widespread western attention. Despite this, ''The Binding Blade'' never released internationally, despite English Nintendo sources expressing interest in such a release.<ref>Harris, Craig. (2002-03-15). "[http://uk.gameboy.ign.com/articles/355/355656p1.html Fire Emblem Hits Japan Airwaves"]. ''IGN''. Retrieved 2014-03-25</ref>


===3DS Games===
{{FE7}} was the first ''Fire Emblem'' game released worldwide.<ref>http://uk.gameboy.ign.com/objects/499/499430.html</ref> It is a prequel to ''The Binding Blade''. The game's development had an international release in mind from the start, with the first ten chapters being an extended tutorial. This was specifically meant to introduce international players to the gameplay of the series. <ref>http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/r_fireemblem_gba</ref> While the original release lacked a subtitle, due to being the only internationally released ''Fire Emblem'' title at the time, modern English Nintendo sources refer to it as '''The Blazing Blade''' to avoid confusion with other titles and the series in general.
{{title|Awakening}} was ''Fire Emblem's'' first foray into the [[Nintendo 3DS]] console. It takes place within the same universe as ''Shadow Dragon'', but a substantial time later. Unlike {{FE12}}, this game was released internationally.


{{title|Fates}} is the most recent game in the series, released in 2015.
{{FE8}} was released on October 7, 2004 in Japan and released internationally in 2005. It is the second title to be released internationally. ''The Sacred Stones'' is somewhat of a throwback to ''Gaiden'' in terms of gameplay; it reintroduces a traversable [[world map]] and features a wealth of [[monster]] enemies. It is a standalone title in terms of story and universe, the only ''Fire Emblem'' 'universe' to only have one game in its continuity. ''The Sacred Stones'' was developed in tandem with {{title|Path of Radiance}}.
 
A few years after the official release, three prototype builds, two of ''The Blazing Blade'' and one of ''The Sacred Stones'', were leaked on the internet.<!--The exact details of this seem to have been somewhat lost...?--> ''The Blazing Blade''{{'}}s two prototypes, colloquially called [[Fire Emblem (GBA) prototype build 0205|0205]] and [[Fire Emblem (GBA) prototype build 0219|0219]], are largely complete and in a playable state, though there are some bugs. ''The Sacred Stones''{{'}}s [[Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones prototype|prototype]] is largely incomplete, and is only truly playable to [[It's a Trap!|Chapter 8]], though the backbone for the rest of the game-maps that would clearly become the ones appearing in the final game and basic setup like deployment positions for player units-is implemented, it is largely in a very unpolished state. Both prototypes feature a wealth of debug menus and features, allowing the player to, for example, warp to any chapter from a menu at leisure and max a unit's stats with a few button presses. The prototypes also feature some early character designs differing from the final game, for instance, [[Heath]] has red hair with a silver tuft in ''The Blazing Blade''{{'}}s prototype instead of his green and silver hair in the final.
 
===GameCube and Wii games===
{{FE9}} released on the [[Nintendo GameCube]] in Japan on April 20, 2005, with international releases following in the same year. It, once again, features a new universe and takes place on the continent of [[Tellius]]. In terms of characters it introduced a new major race of beast-people, the [[laguz]].
 
{{FE10}} released on the Nintendo Wii in Japan on February 22, 2007, with international releases following in the year and 2008. It is a direct sequel to ''Path of Radiance''.
 
There was a second ''Fire Emblem'' series game planned for the Nintendo Wii, however it did not make it very far in to development. It was only known by the placeholder title [[Fire Emblem Wii]], and appears that it would have been a fairly radical departure from ''Fire Emblem'' series gameplay had it released; featuring real-time gameplay and allowing the player to control many units at once.
 
===Nintendo DS remakes===
{{FE11}} was released on August 7, 2008 in Japan and internationally later that year and in 2009. After the development team restructuring after the lackluster sales of ''Radiant Dawn'', the new team decided to start with a remake of the original NES game, with elements from the Super NES remake also utilized, on [[Nintendo DS]]. It is a fairly straightforward remake, though it does feature some new chapters and cast additions compared to the original.
 
Closing the Nintendo DS-era is {{FE12}} released on July 15, 2010 only in Japan. It was made to celebrate the series twentieth anniversary, a remake of the second half of the third game of the series was released, though only in Japan. This was the first game since the series had hit worldwide shelves to be released exclusively in Japan. This game was the first game to introduce the [[avatar (mechanic)|avatar]] system and [[Gameplay_modes#Classic_and_Casual_Mode|casual mode]] to the series, though this is often overlooked due to the game's Japan-only release.
 
===Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, and smart device games===
{{FE13}} was ''Fire Emblem{{'}}s'' first foray into the [[Nintendo 3DS]] console, released on April 19th, 2012 in Japan and 2013 internationally. It is the first non-remake title in the five years following ''Radiant Dawn''. It takes place within the same universe as ''Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light'' and associated games, but a substantial time later. Unlike {{FE12}}, this game was released internationally. Much of the gameplay was simplified or made easier in order to appeal to a wider audience. ''Awakening'' reintroduces child characters and introduced the [[avatar (mechanic)|avatar]] system and [[Gameplay_modes#Classic_and_Casual_Mode|casual mode]] to a wider audience.
 
[[Marth]], [[Robin (Awakening)|Robin]], [[Lucina]], [[Corrin]], and [[Roy]] appear as playable fighters in {{SSB4}}.
 
[[Marth]], [[Ike]], [[Robin (Awakening)|Robin]], and [[Lucina]], appear in [[Code Name: S.T.E.A.M.]] as bonus characters unlocked by [[amiibo]].
[[File:FEF concept poster.png|thumb|150px|Internal development image for {{title|Fates}}.]]
{{TMSFE}} is the first major spinoff title relating to the ''Fire Emblem'' series, and released 26 December, 2015 in Japan and internationally in the following year. The game was originally announced in 2013, but vanished from the public eye after a single, very basic, teaser trailer. The crossover features primarily an original cast with some ''Fire Emblem'' characters appearing as [[Mirage (Tokyo Mirage Sessions)|Mirages]] as allies to the main cast and for [[boss]] and major antagonistic roles. The game has music idol and acting theme, all the main characters are, aside from the protagonist [[Itsuki]], major players in a music, television, or other related profession. The theming of the game and the fact that both ''Shin Megami Tensei'' and ''Fire Emblem'' take a backseat to the game's universe lead to mixed reception. The game's opening sales in Japan were fairly poor, selling 23,806 copies in its first week.<ref name="jp-firstweek">{{Cite web|author=Reggy|published=December 30th, 2015|retrieved=March 5th, 2016| url=http://personacentral.com/genei-ibun-roku-fe-debuts-with-poor-sales-in-japan/|site=Persona Central|title=Genei Ibun Roku #FE Debuts with Poor Sales in Japan with 23k Copies Sold}}</ref>
 
{{FE14}} is the second game on the Nintendo 3DS, released on June 25, 2015 in Japan, and internationally in 2016. After the first five chapters, it splits into three separate storylines: ''Birthright'', which is similar to ''Awakening'' in gameplay; ''Conquest'', which is somewhat more like the previous ''Fire Emblem'' games; and ''Revelation'', which also is similar to ''Awakening'' in terms of gameplay. ''Birthright'' and ''Conquest'' are sold separately, but the other game can be bought at a discount as DLC. ''Revelation'' is exclusively obtained through this method. ''Fates'' is also the first series title to be localized for the South Korean market, marking an expansion of influence for the series.
 
{{FEH}}, following the success of ''Awakening'' and ''Fates'' released on smart devices on February 2nd, 2017. It features bite-sized gameplay and has characters from across the series.
 
{{FE15}} is currently scheduled to release on the Nintendo 3DS on April 20, 2017 in Japan and May 19, 2017. It is a remake of ''Gaiden'', and the third remake overall. Similarly to ''Fates'' being the first South Korean-localized title, ''Echoes: Shadows of Valentia'' will be the first ''Fire Emblem'' title to be localized for Chinese markets. It is likely that ''Echoes: Shadows of Valentia'' will be the last main-line ''Fire Emblem'' series title released for the Nintendo 3DS.
 
{{FEW}} is also scheduled for release on the Nintendo 3DS alongside its Nintendo Switch release.
 
===Nintendo Switch games===
{{FEW}} is currently scheduled to be the first ''Fire Emblem''-related title to be released on the Nintendo Switch. It is a spinoff title and crossover with [[wikipedia:Dynasty Warriors|'' Dynasty Warriors'']].
 
[[Fire Emblem for Nintendo Switch ]] is the next main-line title, and is scheduled for release in 2018. Very little is known about this title, other than it exists; not even the subtitle is yet known.

===Fire Emblem 64===
{{Main|Fire Emblem 64}}
As mentioned in the series history, a game in development for the Nintendo 64 existed for a time, but it never eventuated into a full release on the Nintendo 64. For many years fans speculated what this game may have eventually become, with {{FE6}}, the game released immediately after ''Fire Emblem 64''{{'}}s cancellation, and {{FE9}}, the first 3D game, being popular theories. Developer notes eventually revealed that the game was heavily rewritten into ''The Binding Blade'', though little of ''Fire Emblem 64''{{'}}s content is said to have made it through the rewrite.
===Fire Emblem Wii===
{{Main|Fire Emblem Wii}}
A second title for the Nintendo Wii was in development after {{FE10}}, but never eventuated into a full release. It was an experimental title made with expanding ''Fire Emblem''{{'}}s popularity in mind. It did not get very far out of the concept stages and known screenshots feature heavy reuse of ''Radiant Dawn''{{'}}s graphical assets.
===Prototypes===

Three prototype builds leaked and were released on the internet some time in 2008. The exact details of their acquisition and release have somewhat been lost to time<!--If you know more other than "A Japanese group released them whenever and an English forum noticed, please write it!-->. All three prototypes contain interesting insight into the development of the games during the Game Boy Advance era.

==Fire Emblem 64==
==Related Merchandise==
[[Fire Emblem 64]]
==={{TCG}}===
During the early 2000s a trading card game featuring characters from {{FE3}}, {{FE4}}, and {{FE5}} was in print. Its production ran from 2001 to 2004. Its cards featured a large variety of topics, having character cards, weapon cards, item cards and terrain cards. Aside from providing a fair amount of artwork for many characters and items it is a somewhat overlooked facet of the ''Fire Emblem'' series. The exact rules and play of the original trading card game never really made their way into the English side of ''Fire Emblem'' knowledge.
 
==={{TCGCipher}}===
Unrelated to the old trading card game, the first set of ''TCG Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher)'' released in 2015 and is currently still in print as of writing, with new sets planned into the foreseeable future. ''Cipher'' features characters from a wide range in the series. Unlike the previous series all cards are characters, with item and terrain cards not existing.
 
===Books and Manga===
{{main|:Category:Books}}
{{main|:Category:Manga}}
Throughout the series' lifespan numerous books, development, art, and manga, have been released. Many games have received manga adaptations, and art books.
 
The first six games in the series have received at least one manga adaptation each, and a manga adaptation of {{title|Fates}}, focusing on [[Leo (Fates)|Leo]] and [[Nohr]] is currently in print as of writing. None of the series' manga have been officially printed in English, though some have been translated by fans.
 
Many art books have been released over the years; recent books have begun including fairly extensive amounts of concept art compared to older books that generally only contained finished character pieces. Just about every playable character in the series has at least one piece of official artwork. The vast majority of series art books have been released only in Japanese, though [[The Art of Fire Emblem Awakening]] has an English print.
 
===Anime===
{{main|Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem (anime)}}
{{title|Mystery of the Emblem}} received a short lived anime adaptation that released in 1996. It was, curiously, dubbed and released in English, technically making it the first ''Fire Emblem'' related media to ever be localized in English and some other languages. However, its translation choices have never been used in any games released officially in English. Only two episodes were ever released, and it begins in ''Book 1'' of Mystery of the Emblem, meaning it featured [[Marth]]'s escape to [[Talys]], making them early events of {{title|Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light}}.
 
Aside from this somewhat obscure anime adaptation, the ''Fire Emblem'' series has no other anime adaptations.


==Logos throughout the series==
==Logos throughout the series==
===English===
Pre-Awakening logos used a very "heavy" looking font, and often making the letters appear to be made of physical materials like metal or rock. The logos also often featured a strong border. The general logos went under a somewhat slight redesign with {{title|Path of Radiance}}, becoming flatter.
 
Japanese logos prominently feature "ファイアーエムブレム" as the primary aspect of the logo, though it is often accompanied by "FIRE EMBLEM" written in a small size near the Katakana. {{title|Thracia 776}}{{'}}s logo is an exception of this, which features "FIRE EMBLEM" in English as its primary logo.
 
Often, each game's logo is featured over important artifacts of the game in question, for instance, {{title|The Binding Blade}}'s logo features the titular [[Binding Blade (weapon)|Binding Blade]] behind it, though sometimes the logos are used in marketing materials without these items, presumably to reduce clutter. Interestingly, ''Awakening''{{'}}s Japanese logo features an entire paragraph written under it, summarizing the story of the game, though this text is often too small to read and omitted.
 
Over the years, the primary colors of the logos have changed, initially, blue seemed to have been the feature color; with {{title|Genealogy of the Holy War}} and afterwards, the logo colors were generally warm colors like red, yellow, or orange.
 
In {{title|Mystery of the Emblem}}, the typeface was changed to one with serifs, although the typeface is similar.
 
With {{title|Awakening}}, the general style of the series logo underwent a redesign, now resembling a more simple and flat font. According to interviews, the logo was changed to fit the name of ''Awakening'' and to "be more stylish".<ref>[http://iwataasks.nintendo.com/interviews/#/3ds/fire-emblem/0/2 Iwata Asks : ''Fire Emblem Awakening'' : Syncing with "Awakening"]</ref>
 
With the showing of {{title|Echoes: Shadows of Valentia}}, the Japanese logo appears to now feature "FIRE EMBLEM" in English as the primary logo, with "ファイアーエムブレム" written above it in smaller text. It remains to be seen if the English name being the primary logo in Japan becomes a staple. ''Awakening'', ''Fates'', and ''Echoes: Shadows of Valentia''{{'}}s logos come in several colors in promotional materials so they can display on many backgrounds.

Fire Emblem (Japanese: ファイアーエムブレム Fire Emblem) is a series of turn-based strategy role-playing games developed by Intelligent Systems and published by Nintendo.[1] The series is the first of its kind, with its origins dating back to the days of the Nintendo Entertainment System;[2] however, the first six games were released exclusively in Japan. Each game in the series includes numerous playable characters, each with their own backstories and personalities. The series features permanent death, meaning that any character, save the Lord character(s), will be gone for good if they fall in battle.[3]

History

Nintendo Entertainment System and Super Nintendo Entertainment System

Intelligent Systems began as a company invested in producing video game development tools. Intelligent Systems began to work on simulation games, starting with the first game of the Wars series, Famicom Wars, which has gameplay slightly similar to the Fire Emblem series. The Fire Emblem series first began with the release of Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light for the Nintendo Entertainment System on April 20, 1990 and was developed by Intelligent Systems. Although it did not have a great amount of sales in the first two weeks, sales did eventually improve.

The second game in the series, Fire Emblem Gaiden, was released on March 14, 1992, also for the Nintendo Entertainment System. As its name suggests, it is a side story to the original, being set in the same universe but on a different continent. Some characters from Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light appear but the majority of the cast is new. It introduced several new gameplay changes, including a "Trainee" type class, use of a world map, and monster enemies. Most of these elements vanished with the release of Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, though many elements have made their way back in recent titles like Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, Fire Emblem Awakening, and Fire Emblem Fates.

A direct sequel to the first game, Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, was released on the Super NES on January 21, 1994. The game is divided into two parts; colloquially known as books or, more simply, parts. Book 1 is an abridged retelling and remake of Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light. Book 2 is the meat of the game and a sequel to the original, featuring characters returning from the original as well as new cast additions. It returns to the original formula, but adds new features, like dismounting and new weapons. It also received major graphical updates, owing to releasing on the Super NES. Mystery of the Emblem is the best-selling Fire Emblem game in Japan.[4]

Prerelease leaflet for Genealogy of the Holy War.

The next game in the series, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, released on the Super NES on May 14, 1996. It featured mostly similar gameplay to its predecessors, but it mixes things up by featuring things like massive maps, inventory changes, and an entire second generation of characters descended from the first generation of characters. Child charaters would, however, become absent until the feature's resurgence almost a decade later in Awakening. As of 2002, Genealogy of the Holy War was the second-best-selling Fire Emblem game, having sold an estimated 498,216 copies in its original Super Famicom print run.[4] The official US English website for Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade alleges that Genealogy was the most successful Fire Emblem game in Japan,[5] but it is uncertain how true this claim is in light of all other evidence pointing to Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem historically holding that title.

After Genealogy of the Holy War, Fire Emblem: Archanea Saga aired on the Satellaview peripheral on the Super NES, and featured four single-map scenarios taking place before the events of Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light. Overall it is minor aspect of the series, and is often overlooked.

Closing the Super NES era is Fire Emblem: Thracia 776, which was one of the last games released on the Super NES, releasing on the Nintendo Power flash cartridge service on September 1st, 1999, and getting a proper physical release on January 21st, 2000. Thracia 776 takes place during the second generation of Genealogy of the Holy War, and focuses on events occurring in Thracia. The gameplay returns mostly to the style of Mystery of the Emblem, but adds new mechanics like capture, fog of war, and a comparative wealth of new chapter objectives. Thracia 776 is often conisdered by fans to be one of the more difficult, if not the most difficult, titles in the series. Thracia 776, unfortunately, holds the title of the worst-selling Fire Emblem title, presumably due to its late release and unusual distribution method; initially it could only be obtained by downloading it to a special Super NES cartridge through Nintendo Power.

Nintendo 64

The only known screenshot of Fire Emblem 64.

While no Fire Emblem games ever released on the Nintendo 64, there was one title known to be in development. Unfortunately, very little of this game was released to the public, aside from the fact that it existed at all. Colloquially known as Fire Emblem 64 among fans, it did have some information about it released in The Making of Fire Emblem, a book released in late 2015, which revealed that this title was heavily retooled and would eventually become Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, which is mentioned below.

Game Boy Advance games

Prerelease flier for The Binding Blade.

Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade was the first portable game and first game released after the departure of Shouzou Kaga. Releasing on the Game Boy Advance on March 22nd, 2002 it is what Fire Emblem 64 eventuated as. The Binding Blade features typical Fire Emblem gameplay, playing similarly to the Super NES titles, though mechanics like dismount and capture are not featured. The Binding Blade takes place in a different universe than previous titles, featuring the continent of Elibe. Of note, the game's main character, Roy appeared in Super Smash Bros. Melee alongside Marth, and brought the series to somewhat widespread western attention. Despite this, The Binding Blade never released internationally, despite English Nintendo sources expressing interest in such a release.[6]

Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade was the first Fire Emblem game released worldwide.[7] It is a prequel to The Binding Blade. The game's development had an international release in mind from the start, with the first ten chapters being an extended tutorial. This was specifically meant to introduce international players to the gameplay of the series. [8] While the original release lacked a subtitle, due to being the only internationally released Fire Emblem title at the time, modern English Nintendo sources refer to it as The Blazing Blade to avoid confusion with other titles and the series in general.

Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones was released on October 7, 2004 in Japan and released internationally in 2005. It is the second title to be released internationally. The Sacred Stones is somewhat of a throwback to Gaiden in terms of gameplay; it reintroduces a traversable world map and features a wealth of monster enemies. It is a standalone title in terms of story and universe, the only Fire Emblem 'universe' to only have one game in its continuity. The Sacred Stones was developed in tandem with Path of Radiance.

A few years after the official release, three prototype builds, two of The Blazing Blade and one of The Sacred Stones, were leaked on the internet. The Blazing Blade's two prototypes, colloquially called 0205 and 0219, are largely complete and in a playable state, though there are some bugs. The Sacred Stones's prototype is largely incomplete, and is only truly playable to Chapter 8, though the backbone for the rest of the game-maps that would clearly become the ones appearing in the final game and basic setup like deployment positions for player units-is implemented, it is largely in a very unpolished state. Both prototypes feature a wealth of debug menus and features, allowing the player to, for example, warp to any chapter from a menu at leisure and max a unit's stats with a few button presses. The prototypes also feature some early character designs differing from the final game, for instance, Heath has red hair with a silver tuft in The Blazing Blade's prototype instead of his green and silver hair in the final.

GameCube and Wii games

Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance released on the Nintendo GameCube in Japan on April 20, 2005, with international releases following in the same year. It, once again, features a new universe and takes place on the continent of Tellius. In terms of characters it introduced a new major race of beast-people, the laguz.

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn released on the Nintendo Wii in Japan on February 22, 2007, with international releases following in the year and 2008. It is a direct sequel to Path of Radiance.

There was a second Fire Emblem series game planned for the Nintendo Wii, however it did not make it very far in to development. It was only known by the placeholder title Fire Emblem Wii, and appears that it would have been a fairly radical departure from Fire Emblem series gameplay had it released; featuring real-time gameplay and allowing the player to control many units at once.

Nintendo DS remakes

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon was released on August 7, 2008 in Japan and internationally later that year and in 2009. After the development team restructuring after the lackluster sales of Radiant Dawn, the new team decided to start with a remake of the original NES game, with elements from the Super NES remake also utilized, on Nintendo DS. It is a fairly straightforward remake, though it does feature some new chapters and cast additions compared to the original.

Closing the Nintendo DS-era is Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem released on July 15, 2010 only in Japan. It was made to celebrate the series twentieth anniversary, a remake of the second half of the third game of the series was released, though only in Japan. This was the first game since the series had hit worldwide shelves to be released exclusively in Japan. This game was the first game to introduce the avatar system and casual mode to the series, though this is often overlooked due to the game's Japan-only release.

Wii U, Nintendo 3DS, and smart device games

Fire Emblem Awakening was Fire Emblem's first foray into the Nintendo 3DS console, released on April 19th, 2012 in Japan and 2013 internationally. It is the first non-remake title in the five years following Radiant Dawn. It takes place within the same universe as Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and associated games, but a substantial time later. Unlike Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem, this game was released internationally. Much of the gameplay was simplified or made easier in order to appeal to a wider audience. Awakening reintroduces child characters and introduced the avatar system and casual mode to a wider audience.

Marth, Robin, Lucina, Corrin, and Roy appear as playable fighters in Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U.

Marth, Ike, Robin, and Lucina, appear in Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. as bonus characters unlocked by amiibo.

Tokyo Mirage Sessions ♯FE is the first major spinoff title relating to the Fire Emblem series, and released 26 December, 2015 in Japan and internationally in the following year. The game was originally announced in 2013, but vanished from the public eye after a single, very basic, teaser trailer. The crossover features primarily an original cast with some Fire Emblem characters appearing as Mirages as allies to the main cast and for boss and major antagonistic roles. The game has music idol and acting theme, all the main characters are, aside from the protagonist Itsuki, major players in a music, television, or other related profession. The theming of the game and the fact that both Shin Megami Tensei and Fire Emblem take a backseat to the game's universe lead to mixed reception. The game's opening sales in Japan were fairly poor, selling 23,806 copies in its first week.[9]

Fire Emblem Fates is the second game on the Nintendo 3DS, released on June 25, 2015 in Japan, and internationally in 2016. After the first five chapters, it splits into three separate storylines: Birthright, which is similar to Awakening in gameplay; Conquest, which is somewhat more like the previous Fire Emblem games; and Revelation, which also is similar to Awakening in terms of gameplay. Birthright and Conquest are sold separately, but the other game can be bought at a discount as DLC. Revelation is exclusively obtained through this method. Fates is also the first series title to be localized for the South Korean market, marking an expansion of influence for the series.

Fire Emblem Heroes, following the success of Awakening and Fates released on smart devices on February 2nd, 2017. It features bite-sized gameplay and has characters from across the series.

Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia is currently scheduled to release on the Nintendo 3DS on April 20, 2017 in Japan and May 19, 2017. It is a remake of Gaiden, and the third remake overall. Similarly to Fates being the first South Korean-localized title, Echoes: Shadows of Valentia will be the first Fire Emblem title to be localized for Chinese markets. It is likely that Echoes: Shadows of Valentia will be the last main-line Fire Emblem series title released for the Nintendo 3DS.

Fire Emblem Warriors is also scheduled for release on the Nintendo 3DS alongside its Nintendo Switch release.

Nintendo Switch games

Fire Emblem Warriors is currently scheduled to be the first Fire Emblem-related title to be released on the Nintendo Switch. It is a spinoff title and crossover with Dynasty Warriors.

Fire Emblem for Nintendo Switch is the next main-line title, and is scheduled for release in 2018. Very little is known about this title, other than it exists; not even the subtitle is yet known.

Unreleased/Other Games

Fire Emblem 64

Main article: Fire Emblem 64

As mentioned in the series history, a game in development for the Nintendo 64 existed for a time, but it never eventuated into a full release on the Nintendo 64. For many years fans speculated what this game may have eventually become, with Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade, the game released immediately after Fire Emblem 64's cancellation, and Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, the first 3D game, being popular theories. Developer notes eventually revealed that the game was heavily rewritten into The Binding Blade, though little of Fire Emblem 64's content is said to have made it through the rewrite.

Fire Emblem Wii

Main article: Fire Emblem Wii

A second title for the Nintendo Wii was in development after Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn, but never eventuated into a full release. It was an experimental title made with expanding Fire Emblem's popularity in mind. It did not get very far out of the concept stages and known screenshots feature heavy reuse of Radiant Dawn's graphical assets.

Prototypes

Main article: Fire Emblem (GBA) prototype build 0205
Main article: Fire Emblem (GBA) prototype build 0219
Main article: Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones prototype

Three prototype builds leaked and were released on the internet some time in 2008. The exact details of their acquisition and release have somewhat been lost to time. All three prototypes contain interesting insight into the development of the games during the Game Boy Advance era.

Gameplay

The Fire Emblem games are in the tactical role-playing game genre and they were one of the first of its time to involve such gameplay, including a full plot and a range of diverse characters.

Fire Emblem Trading Card Game

During the early 2000s a trading card game featuring characters from Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem, Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War, and Fire Emblem: Thracia 776 was in print. Its production ran from 2001 to 2004. Its cards featured a large variety of topics, having character cards, weapon cards, item cards and terrain cards. Aside from providing a fair amount of artwork for many characters and items it is a somewhat overlooked facet of the Fire Emblem series. The exact rules and play of the original trading card game never really made their way into the English side of Fire Emblem knowledge.

Fire Emblem Cipher

Unrelated to the old trading card game, the first set of TCG Fire Emblem 0 (Cipher) released in 2015 and is currently still in print as of writing, with new sets planned into the foreseeable future. Cipher features characters from a wide range in the series. Unlike the previous series all cards are characters, with item and terrain cards not existing.

Books and Manga

Main article: :Category:Books
Main article: :Category:Manga

Throughout the series' lifespan numerous books, development, art, and manga, have been released. Many games have received manga adaptations, and art books.

The first six games in the series have received at least one manga adaptation each, and a manga adaptation of Fates, focusing on Leo and Nohr is currently in print as of writing. None of the series' manga have been officially printed in English, though some have been translated by fans.

Many art books have been released over the years; recent books have begun including fairly extensive amounts of concept art compared to older books that generally only contained finished character pieces. Just about every playable character in the series has at least one piece of official artwork. The vast majority of series art books have been released only in Japanese, though The Art of Fire Emblem Awakening has an English print.

Anime

Main article: Fire Emblem: Mystery of the Emblem (anime)

Mystery of the Emblem received a short lived anime adaptation that released in 1996. It was, curiously, dubbed and released in English, technically making it the first Fire Emblem related media to ever be localized in English and some other languages. However, its translation choices have never been used in any games released officially in English. Only two episodes were ever released, and it begins in Book 1 of Mystery of the Emblem, meaning it featured Marth's escape to Talys, making them early events of Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light.

Aside from this somewhat obscure anime adaptation, the Fire Emblem series has no other anime adaptations.

Logos throughout the series

Pre-Awakening logos used a very "heavy" looking font, and often making the letters appear to be made of physical materials like metal or rock. The logos also often featured a strong border. The general logos went under a somewhat slight redesign with Path of Radiance, becoming flatter.

Japanese logos prominently feature "ファイアーエムブレム" as the primary aspect of the logo, though it is often accompanied by "FIRE EMBLEM" written in a small size near the Katakana. Thracia 776's logo is an exception of this, which features "FIRE EMBLEM" in English as its primary logo.

Often, each game's logo is featured over important artifacts of the game in question, for instance, The Binding Blade's logo features the titular Binding Blade behind it, though sometimes the logos are used in marketing materials without these items, presumably to reduce clutter. Interestingly, Awakening's Japanese logo features an entire paragraph written under it, summarizing the story of the game, though this text is often too small to read and omitted.

Over the years, the primary colors of the logos have changed, initially, blue seemed to have been the feature color; with Genealogy of the Holy War and afterwards, the logo colors were generally warm colors like red, yellow, or orange.

In Mystery of the Emblem, the typeface was changed to one with serifs, although the typeface is similar.

With Awakening, the general style of the series logo underwent a redesign, now resembling a more simple and flat font. According to interviews, the logo was changed to fit the name of Awakening and to "be more stylish".[14]

With the showing of Echoes: Shadows of Valentia, the Japanese logo appears to now feature "FIRE EMBLEM" in English as the primary logo, with "ファイアーエムブレム" written above it in smaller text. It remains to be seen if the English name being the primary logo in Japan becomes a staple. Awakening, Fates, and Echoes: Shadows of Valentia's logos come in several colors in promotional materials so they can display on many backgrounds.
