It was exclusively released through the [[Nintendo Power]] system in Japan. In Japan, it was later rereleased through the  [[Virtual Console]]s of the [[Wii Virtual Console|Wii]] in February 2010, [[Wii U Virtual Console|Wii U]] in October 2013 and the [[3DS Virtual Console|New 3DS]] in 2016.
 
 
This installment added eight new unit types and increased the maximum number deployed units from 48 to 60. Other new features included an AI that was enhanced to make decisions faster and 'Renaissance Mode', which would later be known as 'Fog of War' in localized ''Advance Wars'' games, wherein parts of the map are obscured for both sides. This installment retained the original ''Famicom Wars'' campaign involving [[Orange Star|Red Star]] and [[Blue Moon]], while adding a new campaign that had 17 maps and featured two new factions: Green Earth and Yellow Comet. All of the factions now had COs (Commanding Officers) who behaved differently, and there were also unaffiliated COs who could be assigned to factions by the player. The game also featured a four-player mode involving the four factions that had ten unique maps.
