Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon is a solid remake for the original SNES but could've been much more.
What's good about a majority of Nintendo's games is that they offer you an opportunity to think about what your going to do next.An example of that are games like Zelda,Metroid that aren't just some dumb beat em' up.With... Read Full Review

Shadow Dragon brings the most refined gameplay Fire Emblem has ever seen, but shoddy story telling show the game's age.
Fire Emblem Shadow Dragon is the remake of the game that essentially invented the strategy RPG genre. While managing to retain the old-school feel, Shadow Dragon breathes new life into the series with the new online func... Read Full Review

Better than it gets credit for!
Right up before I purchased FE: SD I was hearing a lot of negative things about the game and I almost canceled my Pre-Order at Electronics Boutique. However, I decided to wait and check it out myself. And I was NOT disap... Read Full Review
