Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light
Originally released in 1990 for the Famicom, series progenitor Blade of Light wasn’t localized until decades later when it was finally ported to Switch (for a limited time only, cause Nintendo gonna Nintendo). Following Prince Marth’s journey to reclaim his throne, it’s where the Fire Emblem games and their fantasy worldbuilding got their start, but as an NES game it remains a pretty barebones experience overall. No weapon triangle. No side relationships. A charming retro curio and interesting historical artifact, but definitely the weakest game in the series.
