Nintendo has added a surprise classic game for Nintendo Switch Online with Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones.
Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones is now available for Nintendo Switch Online subscribers as the latest Game Boy Advance re-release.
Originally released for the Game Boy Advance in 2004, Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones is the eighth mainline entry in the series and only the second to be released outside of Japan.
Here’s a blurb on the classic game, plus a new trailer:
The kingdom of Renais lies shattered by a sudden invasion! Use cunning strategy to guide the royal heirs Eirika and Ephraim on their twin quest to rebuild Renais. Take advantage of your strengths and exploit your enemy’s weaknesses, but be careful: if a soldier perishes on the battlefield, they’re gone forever!
In a world of dragons and magic, you must always be ready for battle. Take advantage of the terrain and the weapon in your hand, and attack enemies either from afar using magic or up close with your sword. Each weapon has its own strength and weakness, so choose wisely when attacking your opponent, because you don’t want to be caught off guard.
Build the perfect army. Do you want a pegasus rider or a wyvern rider? An assassin or a rogue? Upgrade your troops to different classes, each with their own skills and weapons, and save the land from the forces of darkness!
Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack is part of their subscription service. It adds classic NES, SNES, Game Boy, Sega Gensis, Nintendo 64 games, and soon Nintendo GameCube games to Nintendo’s online service.
