Fire Emblem Riches Unleashed Onto The Web!
Nintendo has done a wonderful thing and released a butt-load (that's right, I said it) of media spread across two new sites for their highly successful strategy RPG series, Fire Emblem. Just make sure you brought your kanji dictionary, because it's all in Japanese.
The first, which is to be expected, is a site dedicated to the upcoming Wii release, Fire Emblem: Goddess of Dawn. You can check out the lay of the world and it's political conflicts, some flash animation, and a look at some of the major characters. Looks like the shape shifting race is back from Path of Radiance, a welcome addition. Most importantly, check out the new opening trailer released on the site. The series has always been known for it's great (if not slightly repetitive) soundtracks, and the trailer features a stirring piece that literally made my eyes water. But I'm highly sensitive.
Finally, Fire Emblem World, a site dedicated to all things (you guessed it) Fire Emblem. Although much of it is lost on me, being only in my first year of Japanese study, there is much fun to be had. Get lost in the marble pillars of the Fire Emblem Museum for the history of the series. With the help of a grizzled commander, discover the simple yet rich gameplay of the series. Find yourself in the smoky tent of the Fire Emblem Fortuneteller and through a game of chance, find out your future. No matter what you do, you'll be having fun scratching your head, piecing it together, and wondering what exactly is going on.
Don't say I never did you any favors.
