So, Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon has been/is in the process of being released in North America and I'm wondering if any of our European friends have had a chance to play it yet? If so, how was it? Specifically, I'm curious about the online multiplayer.

For the first time in the series, players can battle each other online via the Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection and talk using the built-in Nintendo DS microphone.

Interesting but I'm sort of skeptical. That mic can pick up noises but I question how intelligible they'd be. Anyway, I'm pretty excited. February and March are good months for DS games.

I'm probably going to pick it up when it comes out, and I'd love to hear more about it. When's the release date, again? And you're right about February and March being awesome: Fire Emblem, Avalon Code, Dragon Quest V, Valkyrie Profile, and Suikoden Tierkreis. Man, I'll be broke after all of it!

EDIT: 42nd post!

For the mic on the DS, you saw how accurate it was on Pokemon Diamond/Pearl.

That's what I was remembering and what made me skeptical.
