Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light receives new SP versions in Famicom Nintendo Switch Online app
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light is celebrating its 30th anniversary today. In honor of the occasion, a treat is now available for Nintendo Switch Online members in Japan.
The Famicom app has updated with a pair of special versions for the game. In the first one, the action picks up right as players are about to trigger a Triangle Attack with Palla, Catria, and Est. The second one begins at the endgame chapter, where Marth must battle Medeus to save the day.
Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light never came out in the west, so these bonuses and the game itself aren’t available in North America or Europe. However, if you create a Japanese Nintendo Account and download the Famicom app, you should be able to access them – just without any English.

SEGA Ages kicked off on Switch back in September 2018 with Sonic the Hedgehog. Just a couple of months ago, Sonic the Hedgehog 2 was finally made available as well. Although there’s currently nothing on the horizon, other entries in the series for Switch may not be out of the question in the future.
In a interview with Game Watch earlier this year, SEGA’s Yosuke Okunari was asked if games like Sonic 3, Sonic & Knuckles, and even the arcade title SegaSonic the Hedgehog are possible for re-release. Okunari indicated that there aren’t any set plans, but if the initial collection of SEGA Ages titles is determined to be a success, it’s something the team would like to consider.
