None of those games you mentioned are very similar to Advance Wars. I'm not saying that Advance Wars is so unique that no other game compares to it, but it is most certainly just as different from any PC strategy title as Final Fantasy or Dragon Quest is from any PC RPG. They share key similarities like hit points, experience points, magic points, the communication aspect, but when you really sit down and play these games they seem completely different from each other.
Oh and I'd also like to point out that the first Wars game came out quite a long time ago, during the NES days. Like Fire Emblem, Advance Wars is just another entry into an old franchise. The first Wars game, Famicom Wars, came out in 1988, long before the big PC strategy boom.
