A must have for Fire Emblem fans. A nice box of collectibles and the ability to play a never-before-released-in-the-US game in the series.

This is an amazing collector’s edition. It would be nice if it included a physical game though, rather than a download code.

This is a collector's edition strictly for fans of the Fire Emblem series, specifically for fans of the First entry of the series which this bundle is based on. Nothing in this bundle seems cheap or gimmicky, or includes pointless throwaway items as some video game collectors editions have been as of late. If you have the shelf space for it I would highly recommend.

The extras in this set is phenomenal -- hardback art book and clear replica NES game Pak. The only negative is the game is a download code and not a cartridge.

This is an excellent collection content to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the first game. I love the hardback art book, and the NES replica game case is a great touch. While I wish there had been an actual physical copy of the game in this set, as opposed to a digital download code, I'm not disappointed with my purchase. Great set overall!

This is an outstanding collection, really celebrating Fire Emblem's 30th Anniversary! The art book is highly detailed, with great art. The Nintendo Power poster is a classic, and the game cartridges is detailed. The game download was pretty easy, and is pretty fun so far. If you are able to snag one, it is a great deal!

If you're in your 30's or older, this collector's edition is for you. The crystal cartridge and the big art book are beautiful. The NES game cover, instruction manual, and Nintendo Power style cover poster, with old NES style cheat codes on the back are a throwback to the classic days of Nintendo.

This anniversary bundle is one of the best Nintendo has done. It comes with a lot of product from Nintendo’s past like pieces of Nintendo power and even a glass cartridge of the game. The only downside to it, is that the game is digital. But if you don’t care about that then it’s perfect.

Some may see this is as pricey but I have to say this is a really great package to celebrate the original Fire emblem. It's unfortunate that the game itself is a digital copy but the art book and the replica game pad are really nice inclusions. Would recommend to any fan of the series.

This is a really impressive box set. Glad I got a hold of one. The game itself is good, fans of the series will enjoy it, but the set itself is just above and beyond. Super cool. If you can find it for a fair price I’d recommend it to any Fire Emblem fan!

After having received this item, I am thoroughly confused about the poor reviews given. The quality of the items included are surprisingly nice. The art book is very big, hardback, and looks insanely cool. There is a retro-inspired poster and an NES style box as well, both of which are also quite nice. The main selling point of the box is definitely the acrylic NES cartridge replica included. It’s weight far superseded my expectation. It looks amazing. A total crowning item for a game collector. I hope Nintendo manufacturers more of them for other games because it is outstanding. Whether the item is worth the $50 is up to you, but I believe it is.

The quality of everything in this anniversary edition is top notch. I love the old school NES cartridge and the accompanying sleeve. Someday I'll crack open the artbook and check it out but for now it's just beautiful as is.

The package as a whole is amazing but what really stands out is the classic nes box and the ridiculously amazing art book. I was genuinely not expecting it to be so extensive. No I which I would have bought another for my brother.

This is an excellent collectors item for Fire Emblem fans. The book is full of interesting history on the series and gorgeous artwork. I also ended up liking the game way more than I thought I would. It still holds up.

A excellent collector piece. This comes with a download code for the game. However you would want this for the beautiful art book and replica nes cart. You could easily pay this much for a art book alone.

Very cool for a collector and long time fan of the series. Can't wait to see what the future holds for Fire Emblem.
Only real con about any Fire Emblem collectible is the rampant flipping people go to in an attempt to "buy money" essentially. The initial launch of this sold out in minutes, not all to fans who were excited for it. I just happened to log on at the right moment and find the retail version I did.
My only issue to address with Best Buy as a vendor on this is to ask that in-store labels (price tags, pick up labels, ect) not be put directly on the packaging. Mine was directly on the box, and while I got it off safe, I would have been very upset had this sticker hurt the packaging.

Beautiful collectors edition of the first game that never reached the states. Love the series and although there is no physical copy of the game the stuff that comes in this package is amazing.
