that's just a list you made up to screw around with us.

The problem with the whole "best story" argument is there are two ways to judge a game for that:
1) The depth of the story. In other words how well the story would compare to a good book.
2) Story integration. In other words, how well the story is told along with the gameplay.

Quite often they are mutually exclusive. Many adventure games tell a story that follows #2 very well, but is a simple story and therefore fails #1. Some JRPG's try to make a very detailed and in depth story, so it passes #1, but sacrifices game quality by making you sit around and watch what is essentially a movie, so it fails #2.

In my opinion, if you want good story, go buy a book. No matter how hard game designers/writers try, they cannot compete with a good book on story.

Sorry, we accept only credible sources like IGN and Gamespot in this forum.

I think the stories a just fine. I never really expect Nintendo to be great story tellers since I grew up knowing they were more concerned about the game opposed to the story. Also the last time they told a deep story was.... er.... Somebody want to help me on this?

There has been a Fire Emblem game almost every year for the last 4 or 5 years.

The appeal behind the story though is the characters, not the actual story itself.  The story usually plays out like the typical "save the world from a long sealed being," that doesn't exactly make for a memorable story this day in age.

So you are trying to tell me that Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn have typical/predictable plots?

Well I haven't played Radiant Dawn yet, but Path of Radiance did IMO.  I was able to see everything coming quite easily, particularly the ending.

Don't confuse "story" with "plot".

I don't think they're bad, but they just keep players interested enough.
