Fire Emblem’s Remarkable Comeback

Fire Emblem’s Remarkable Comeback https://ift.tt/7qwgX1M Though it may not be a sales juggernaut on the scale of Mario or The Legend of Zelda, Fire Emblem is one of Nintendo's preeminent franchises. Like so many of its vaunted stablemates, the series is almost as old as Nintendo's gaming ambitions, debuting on the Famicom and appearing on nearly every home and handheld console since. Given this prominence, it's almost difficult to believe that Fire Emblem's future was ever in jeopardy, but such was indeed once the case; there was a point in time when the series was very much on the verge of cancellation, and it took a dramatic shakeup to reverse its fortunes. To fully contextualize this rocky period in Fire Emblem's history, we need to look back at its trajectory in the wake of its belated international debut.

Minecraft Mobs Arrive As Cookie Treats At Crumbl For Limited Time

Minecraft Mobs Arrive As Cookie Treats At Crumbl For Limited Time https://ift.tt/GPw5AOz

Chicken cookies! Crumbl has revealed a Minecraft collaboration that introduces six different desserts based on the sandbox game to the menu starting today. Yes, they're all square shaped, and no, there isn't a chicken jockey. Available tomorrow, August 31, through September 5, the four-sided treats include a cookie butter cookie with a chicken topper, a Creeper Key lime sandwich, and a lemon poppyseed cookie topped with a boxy bee. 

Those three treats are joined by an Enderman cookies-and-cream sandwich, which has purple marshmallow mousse in the middle. Who knew those weirdos could have such a tasty-sounding filling? Meanwhile, the pig-themed dessert is a cherry blossom cookie, with maraschino cherries and cherry cream cheese frosting as two of the key ingredients. Last but not least, there's a grass block cake that features a cinnamon vanilla base, brown cream cheese frosting, and lawn-textured frosting.

These special Minecraft treats will be available at Crumbl from August 31 through September 5.

The partnership doesn't stop there, either. Crumbl notes that there will be Minecraft mystery spoons, with a special exclusive one for the first 200 people who pick up a six-pack of the crossover cookie treats. 

Minecraft is not a new kid on the block when it comes to crossovers. Bluey came to the hugely popular game earlier this year, and there have been Minecraft Crocs available in the past. This new collaboration with Crumbl follows Krispy Kreme offering up special Pokemon doughnuts.

Looking ahead, Minecraft Dungeons II is set to launch September 29 on PC, PS5, Switch 2, and Xbox Series X|S.
