The Armchair Empire: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon Review

The only other quibble with Shadow Dragon is its online play. While connecting with another player online is as smooth as can be expected from a portable machine, there are no additional restrictions when it comes to challenging random people online, usually resulting in one-sided battles. Try searching for an opponent online before finishing the game, and you'll likely end up completely obliterated by high-level armies with fully-upgraded weapons.

Despite those flaws, Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon is still a highly entertaining portable adventure that is a must have for DS owners everywhere. War has never been so compact and accessible.
