Announced today in Nintendo's Fire Emblem direct, we have a remake of Fire Emblem Gaiden, the second game in the Fire Emblem Franchise. Released on March 14th, 1992 this sequel to the first Fire Emblem game is a very influential game in the franchise introducing many concepts that the series has revisited such as: The world map, three tier class trees, having various monster classes as enemies, branching promotion paths (executed quite a bit differently than in future games, but they were introduced in Gaiden), multiple parties of player characters, and unbreakable weapons. Yet it's also an odd duck in the franchise with some ideas that have never been revisited, primarily village and dungeon exploration.
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia launches on May 19th 2017.
Whether you're new to the Fire Emblem franchise, or a long time player, what are your hopes for this entry of the series?
