A bit off-topic, but if anyone's interested in the Fire Emblem series, Fire Emblem Heroes is a great introduction to the series. It's pretty clearly Fire Emblem light (small maps, 4v4 battles, no permadeath, no accuracy), and the F2P aspects are going to be crap if you care about getting specific characters, but as far as I can see if you just play through the story on normal with your given party (and make sure to fully upgrade the castle before you buy a single new character) it seems fine. Heck, it seems insanely easy so far (for a FE veteran), so I've had to try to level up what few characters I have to not make it a complete stomp. The MyNintendo integration also works--even ignoring the free premium currency you get to start, it's the first good Platinum Coin sink I've gotten (there aren't orbs obviously, but you can get Bonus EXP, as well as stamina refills and extra "PVP" battles), which helps.
