In this episode Greg and George look at one of the early games in the Fire Emblem franchise! The third game in the series was released in Japan as Fire Emblem - Monshou no Nazo, and it's divided into two books -- book one is mostly a remake of the original Fire Emblem game and book two is a direct sequel. None of the Fire Emblem games were released in the west until the GBA, but this game was translated years ago.
