'''''Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light''''' ({{ja|ファイアーエムブレム 暗黒竜と光の剣|Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryuu to Hikari no Ken}}, ''Fire Emblem: Dark Dragon and the Sword of Light'') is the first installment of the {{uv|Fire Emblem}} game series, developed by Nintendo R&D1 and Intelligent Systems and published by [[Nintendo]]. It is widely accepted to be something of an archetypical codifier for the strategy roleplaying game genre as it exists in Japan, with many other Japanese games of the genre following in its stead.
