Synopsis

Charging into combat on the battlefield, you find yourself face-to-decaying-face with hordes of undead warriors. Dismembered body parts fly this way and that, as bullets and arrows whiz past your ears. You return their fire with all of your might, but it seems to barely dent their massive numbers. In despair, you believe you've been left for dead. Suddenly, you hear the familiar war cries of your comrades in arms. Perfectly performing all of the tactics you taught them, your soldiers join your side, cutting down zombies left and right. Together, you will stand or fall — can you lead this noble army to ultimate victory?

Take command of a unique band of soldiers and guide them to glory on the battlefield in Fire Emblem: Awakening. In this brilliantly rendered fantasy adventure for the Nintendo 3DS, you have the power to turn the tides of battle in an epic war against a dark dragon. Your fire-breathing foe threatens to destroy the entire empire with help from his armies of the undead — but with your loyal crew of fighters, you just may be the one to stop him for good. Create your own customized soldier and join a massive cast of interesting characters who all have their own stories to tell. Heighten your power on the battlefield by strengthening the bonds between your troops and even enlisting a friend of your own. Plus, with StreetPass and SpotPass options, you can access exciting new items, characters and maps. The world depends on your leadership — this is your Awakening.

Fire Emblem: Awakening - Nintendo 3DS (17 out of 17)

Posted by: from San Jose, CA on 03/29/2013Read any gaming news site and you'll find they agree, this is reason enough to get a 3DS. I bought two copies and another 3DS because my girlfriend wanted to play as well, and she rarely plays games. Characters, story, visuals, free updates every week as well as some paid dlc; this game far exceeds any expectation. The last time picked up my old FE gba games was probably in grade school. This is nostalgic and at the same time feels new.

Best 3ds game
5
Posted by: from on 03/21/2013Never played an FE game before but I tried the demo for this and I was impressed. When I played the full game, I was blown away. This is the best game available for 3DS. If you're a fan of other SRPGs (FF Tactics, Disgaea), or just a 3DS owner looking for a new fix, you will love this game!

Easily the best Strategy RPG I have played
5
Posted by: from Connecticut on 03/08/2013I'll keep this short and sweet. Fire Emblem Awakening is easily the best Strategy RPG since Shining Force 3 and may very well be the best one I have ever played period. If you don't own a 3DS and enjoy this genre of game, it is worth buying the handheld for this game and this game alone. If you already have a 3DS, then just buy this already.

Best 3DS game so far
5
Posted by: from on 03/06/2013I bought this game at the Best Buy Store in Union City last week. By the time I went there, I literally got the last copy of that game at the store. This game has a lot of improvement compare with its previous games in the series. For example, now I can play in casual mode so I don't have to restart because of losing a unit. Also they have a marriage/children system to allow me to build stronger army.
