Translation NES / Famicom

Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light English translation

ファイアーエムブレム 暗黒竜と光の剣 · Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Tsurugi

Polinym's complete English translation of the original Famicom Fire Emblem, written from scratch rather than built on the older patches.

What's translated

This is an independent translation of the whole game: story scenes, battle conversations, villages, shops and menus. It was made fresh from the Japanese rather than reworking earlier fan patches, and the game can be played from start to finish. Recent versions cleaned up the script, though a few names still differ from Nintendo's official spellings; the hero, for example, is called Mars rather than Marth.

Playing it

Apply the patch to your own copy of the Japanese Famicom cartridge, following the instructions on the patch page.
