Debut Famicom Wars

Famicom Wars is one of the first games created by Intelligent Systems. None of the games were released in America until Advance Wars in 2001.

The original game was followed by Gameboy Wars and three more Gameboy games developed by Hudson Soft, Gameboy Wars TURBO, Gameboy Wars 2, and Gameboy Wars 3. Super Famicom Wars was developed by Intelligent System, as were the subsequent Advance Wars games.

In most of the Famicom Wars game, the series has your character commanding the Orange Star Army against Blue Moon Army. More recently, Black Hole has taken the place as the series main villains and Green Earth and Yellow Comet have been added.

A spinoff of the series, Battalion Wars, was developed by Kuju and originally was titled Advance Wars: Under Fire. These games share little in common with the previous games, though the sequel Battalion Wars II features gameplay elements similar to the main series, such as factories for units and naval battles.

Continuity

Before Advance Wars 2: Black Hole Rising, there was seemingly no continuing storyline in the series. Each previous game was disconnected from the other, but featured similar units and the same two to four armies.

The Advance Wars continuity spans three games and tells of the efforts of the Allied Nations to defeat the machinations of the Black Hole army. Each game has kept the same units and COs and only added to the rosters with new characters and units, rather than replace and reinvent with every single game.

The Battalion Wars continuity spans two games and follows the General Herman and the Western Frontier in their battles against their enemies, most notably Xylvania and Kaiser Vlad.
