Hey people! Personally i think the GBA Fire Emblem games are the best, but others may have different thoughts. Post what you think!

[whase]

I disagree, FE9 and 10 are better
though the GBA games do beat all the others

[Shin]

It's all SNES with me!

[Zeem]

1. FE7
2. FE4
3. FE9

My top three, and FE4 might take FE7's spot.

[Espinosa]

They're probably the most well done out of them all (FE7 and FE8 namely), but playing only those three gets boring really fast.

[Maji]

It's all SNES with me!

+1, SNES all the way! -brofist-

[Bee]

SNES games are my personal favorite.

[Ice Sage]

Gotta go with the SNES. FE3 and FE5 are great.

[Holmes]

I like the SNES ones better.

I may (sadly) be one of the (vocal) few here who hold FE7 in a high regard, but holding even just one of the GBA FEs in such a high regard isn't enough to outright say "the GBA games are the best". Especially when there's titles like FE6, which admittely has lower quality than both of its two GBA successors. Especially FE7. And even then, playing one game multiple times in a row, admittedly, does get boring no matter how good the game is. (Even though that could be applied to just about anything.) At any rate, I'd say FE7's the only one among the three that can compare with the SNES FEs, FE9, and FE12. (I'm still waiting on, and withholding judgement on FE13 before I can include that one.)

I actualy agree with the above in that holding even one GBA FE in high regard doesn't make the GBA era as a whole the best.

I personally like the SNES era best as well. Except the graphics, those sucked.

Except FE5's mugs. Those are actually pretty nice.

But GBA mugs are nice and easy to make and we can hack it well so that's a cool aspect :P

[Ike-Mike]

Fire Emblem is the best on SNES.
Just like Final Fantasy.

[Furetchen]

GBA Era is the best to fuck around with and make hacks for. Playing? Eh, I'll take Jugdral and Tellius, and 12 as well. Throw in Valencia if you give me turbo for 2 and good voice acting for 13.

[SeverIan]

I r eally like the GBA era the least of the ones I have experience with.

[Revenant]

I really like the slick interface and fast gameplay that the DS games provide. Dual screen information beat the R-button any day of the week.

[Austin LePurple]

Snes for me

[OldMan]

GBA era might have been the worst, actually.

SNES here, too.

[Celice]

I personally found FE9 to be the definitive Fire Emblem experience out of all of them. FE13 may just be fapping of gameplay, but FE9 did this and kept an engaging plot, with momentum to boot. It never really dulled, except for maybe one or two chapters (three I'm thinking of). I find more faults in the rest of the series individually than I do with FE9. The GBA games aren't as fun, though I like FE6 the most of the three.

GBA Era is the best to fuck around with and make hacks for.

The sheer number of hacks, documentation, and quality of the SNES Fire Emblem hacks tends to disagree with you.

I started in FE8 so my idea of the game play was tainted from the start. I think the story to FE9 was by far the best because it was not all about some Royals and shit. The battle sequence was the largest jump from the GBA style so when I first played FE9 I went nuts. Although I did play FE8 like a million times.
