Game Focus writes: "I have been a fan of the Fire Emblem series ever since its first English-release on the GameBoy Advance. Since then, I have played every version released outside of Japan, and was highly anticipating Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon, the first entry to the series on Nintendo's DS. Now, Shadow Dragon is not an entirely new entry to the series; rather, it is a remake of the game that started it all: the original Fire Emblem, released only in Japan on the Famicom. This means that the vast majority of people (myself included) have never played the game, and it is a fresh experience to them."
Pros
+Fire Emblem finally makes it to the DS!
+Gameplay is still as challenging and fun as ever
+Overall good audio-visual
Cons
-Plot hasn't been enhanced at all from the original version, and as a result is relatively weak
-Players new to the series might want to check out the GBA versions first
-Lack of character development
-Missing the charm of earlier games in the series
