They really should have brought out the first one after Final Fantasy 1 became a success stateside. Sure, FF1 was only brought here like right when the SNES was released, but it still was quite popular. This should have been N's clue that some Americans like to think hard in their games. Plus, once they brought out the first one, the rest could easily follow. Why they are only now testing America with Advance Wars is a mystery. I loved Advane Wars. It had a very simplistic yet fun feel. With Fire Emblem being something in the same vein but a lot more detail and heros and such, I'd sure like playing it. They haven't even released Advance Wars in Japan yet though (and every US exclusive game made by them eventually makes it there), so it will be a while I think before we hear anything...
RANDOM THEORY TIME!: Okay, OB1, maybe they ARE doing a simultaneous release here in the US of both Fire Emblem games, due to the link up. Expansion on that theory! Maybe in Japan, they are working out a link up with Advance Wars as well, so that they will release Advance Wars and the GCN Fire Emblem game at the same time there too. How would that work exactly? Hey I dunno...

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
