A turn-based strategy RPG, the first Fire Emblem game is widely considered to be a codifier of the genre. It features numerous characters that grow stronger as they defeat their enemies and overcome many difficult challenges along the way.

The game stars Prince Marth of Altea as he ventures across the continent, in some cases for liberation and in others for miscellaneous deeds, and as he quests to reclaim the titular Blade of Light (Falchion); the weapon of his ancestor Anri forged from the fang of a divine dragon, and stolen from his country by a traitorous former ally (the country of Gra). Eventually, Marth fulfills his destiny to utilize it to slay the titular Shadow Dragon (Medeus), a powerful Earth Dragon and the emperor of Dolhr.

This patch named Proyecto Elitista (Project Elitist) is a Spanish translation that prioritizes accuracy to the original Japanese over the official Switch translation or the Spanish translation of the DS remake.

It uses a special font to make fit most dialogue in the box without having to butcher text.

The most interesting feature of this translation by far is that it comes with a translation of the manual, which helps to check weapon properties, character descriptions and even the map of the game.
