FighterForHisFriends Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Wow. I'm surprised nobody already used this name.So, 'ey. I'm FighterForHisFriends and I kinda feel that Fire Emblem is the best thing ever. I recently pre-ordered the Lucina figma a day or two ago... Then I looked around and realized I only know, like, two people who don't say "Ike from Smash Bros." So, now I'm trying to connect with the Fire Emblem fandom. This is me doing that.Um... I've liked Fire Emblem since 2009 when I bought a used copy of Sacred Stones at a convention. Since then, I've gone on to collect and play every Fire Emblem that's been released in the states. I've also bought a bunch of the ones that never made it here. My collection's only missing Thracia, the original, and Heroes of Light and Shadow. I'll admit I haven't really played the Japanese ones... 'cuz I can't read 'em. Uh... I'm big on collecting Fire Emblem merch, too.Other than that... Um... I'm working on getting an associates in applied sciences so I can work in the games industry and I'm really into video game cover bands (I'm in a really good town for that; we've got three). So, yeah, I'm really into video games and the culture surroundin' 'em. I like other stuff, too. I swear.So... What's crackin'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 Welcome to the party. Hope you enjoy yourself and the community. All the FE games are incredibly fun. So Sacred Stones is your personal favorite? What did you think of the Radiance duology? Seeing as your name reflects off Ike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FighterForHisFriends Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Yeah, Sacred Stones is my favorite (might just be because I played it first), but... It's kind of tied with Awakening. I like Ike a ton, but I kinda just went with this name, 'cuz it's the wittiest Fire Emblem-related name I could come up with. I really liked Path of Radiance, buuuut... Radiant Dawn is by far my least favorite in the series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedi Posted December 2, 2014 Share Posted December 2, 2014 I see I see, Well Sacred Stones and Awakening do have some similarities like the open world map. Although its archaic you may enjoy FE2 since it started that particular inconsistent mechanic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FighterForHisFriends Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Gaiden, right? I own a copy of that. I even busted up a Gyromite cart to pull the Famicom/NES adapter out and pop it on. I've never been able to get the pin connectors to line up in my NES though. Like, I don't even know for sure if the cartridge actually works or not. But yeah, I really like the world map mechanic. I love grinding everyone to the fullest and stuff, as opposed to just picking a few guys to stick with the entire game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it does work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FighterForHisFriends Posted December 2, 2014 Author Share Posted December 2, 2014 Yeah, I'm kinda into retro gaming. I grew up with the N64, but around 2009 I started getting into retro stuff, so I started buying old consoles and games and stuff. But yeah, I'll probably need to get a Famicom or a Famicom/NES adapter device (Like a Honeybee or something) if I really want to see if it works. I bought it from a reputable, independently-owned game store, so I'm not particularly worried that it doesn't work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FighterForHisFriends Posted December 3, 2014 Author Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) Nice.And yeah, Jedi. I rented Ogre Battle when I was a youngin. Fun story; after I got into Fire Emblem, I tried looking to see if there was one for the N64, because I thought there was a chance that that game (Ogre Battle) I played as a child was Fire Emblem. Ya know, 'cuz blue-haired protagonists and strategy RPG... Totes must be Fire Emblem. I've got it on Virtual Console now and I've been lazily hunting for a physical copy, but I haven't found any at a price I'm willing to pay. I need to pick it back up. I never got around to finishing it. Edited December 3, 2014 by FighterForHisFriends Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never got around to finishing it. It's one of my all time favorite series, both the SNES and N64 game are so awesome. I wish they'd go back to the style instead of Tactics Ogre :/. I remember my Dad and I getting the physical copy a long time ago and having a blast with it, then later getting it on the VC and both of us once AGAIN had a blast with it. One of our all time favorites for sure. Edited December 3, 2014 by Jedi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
