>released in late '99/early '00>on the fucking Super FamicomWhat the hell were they thinking?
>fuck the N64
They were thinking it would be funny to piss you off 26 years later
>Bro, this game sucks ass. We're not putting it on a console anyone cares about anymore.

>>12565523>"Welp, the plan for the N64 Fire Emblem didn't work. Let's just do another Super Famicom game until we figure this out."
