There was no Fire Emblem remake on the Game Boy Advance. You're probably thinking of Fire Emblem: The Blazing Sword, released outside of Japan as just Fire Emblem. It is an original game and not a remake of the NES game. However, that game was remade on the DS as Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon.

Shining Force and Shining Force 2 are my favorite strategy RP Gs ever. I have such nostalgic feelings for them; after all, I put more time into them than possibly any other Genesis games.

I'm sorry, which game is this supposed to be a review of?

Shining Force vs Fire Emblem
I've been a longtime Shining Force fan, though recently my hunger for more games like Shining Force led me to track down the remake of Fire Emblem for the Game Boy Advance. Now granted, I have limited experience with the Fire Emblem series and I'm only halfway through the first game while I've played all of the Sega Genesis Shining Force games plus Shining Force CD, but I can't help but compare the two. They both have very similar gameplay styles, and I think both games have strengths and weaknesses. Let's compare, just based on the first Fire Emblem game alone:
Granted I'm still getting into Fire Emblem, and while I think I like Shining Force a bit better, it's still a good game with enough similarities to Shining force to keep me happy. Plus, an awesome story. On a side note I do really like Fire Emblem's graphics too, but that might be an unfair comparison, I don't know what the original game looked like I've just played the remake from 2003.
