Is Totsugeki!! Famicom Wars still worth playing in 2026?
Released in 2005 in Japan, known in the West as Battalion Wars, this Nintendo and Kuju game transposes the Famicom Wars universe into real time action strategy. The player directly commands their units on the field, alternating taking control and issuing orders on the fly, in a singular mix of tactics and action. The colourful art direction and the good natured tone soften the military theme. The strategic depth stays measured, yet fans of accessible strategy and the curious about the Wars franchise find an original, dynamic and still enjoyable approach.
