Customers are saying

Customers praise the enjoyable gameplay, compelling story, and stellar voice acting in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia. Many appreciate the game's unique dungeon crawling elements and consider it a great remake of a classic title. While some found the map design less engaging than in other entries, the absence of the weapon triangle system was also noted. Overall, the game is lauded for its challenging yet accessible difficulty and beautiful art style.

    If you like Fire Emblem, then you will probably enjoy this one. None of the waifu stuff that has brought so many new people to the franchise, but I do particularly enjoy seeing things from two different perspectives (Alm's and Celica's).

    This makes the third FE game on the 3DS console. Great entry if you have never played the original but note that there are some departures from conventions given that the original was made before the more modern FE games.

    I've been a big fan of Fire Emblem for years. This game brings in elements from numerous previous titles in the franchise, and is a lot of fun to play. The dungeon exploration is a new feature that really adds to the game.

    Fire Emblem is a great series, but I am really really enjoying Echoes, Shadows of Valentia. It has everything I love about RPGs, plus Tons of stuff to do! You won't make a mistake adding this one to your collection.

    While I applaud the devs behind this game for trying something new the game just is not scratching the fire emblem itch as much as fates or awakening did. The new dungeons didn’t do much for me and battles seem to be less strategic at least in the beginning of the game. I would still recommend it just not above fates or awakening.

    If you've played Fire Emblem games before, then you don't really need this review. You just know you want to own all Fire Emblem games because they're always a fun adventure with cool story line too

    If you are a fan of the Fire Emblem franchise than is a most buy just because it's a first time release of a former japanese exclusive. Graphics are of course grainy bit game play and story are great.

    For a beginner in the Fire Emblem series, its absolutely amazing. The fight sequences are well developed and the cut scenes are beautiful, as well as the music being just as beautiful, if not more.

    This is the update of Fire Emblem Gaiden for the NES. The 3DS version gives great updates to the original (which America never got). The mode of exploring going into FE-style battles is neat.

    Classic Game

    Classic game style you would expect from the old school fire emblem games. And I believe this game only came out on Japan when it first released back in the NES era.
