BS Fire Emblem: Archanea Senki (BS ファイアーエムブレム　アカネイア戦記 BS Faiā Emuburemu Akaneia Senki?, (lit. BS Fire Emblem: War Chronicles of Akaneia)) is a set of four short Fire Emblem games that were first broadcast in 1997 for the Satellaview attachment for the Super Famicom and could be downloaded. Each game contained one map and was based on Fire Emblem: Monshō no Nazo's engine. The set serves as the technical 5th game in the series, though its obscurity has led it to generally being unlisted as such.

The games took place in Archanea, chronologically before the events of Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Tsurugi, with some characters from Monshō no Nazo making appearances. Like most Satellaview games, the game was streamed, and featured live voice acting. BS Fire Emblem: Archanea Senki was initially released episodically in 4 chapters, from September 27 to October 25, 1997.[1] St.GIGA had broadcast two reruns; during November to December, 1997 and finally from April to May, 1999.[1] Due to Satellaview services being discontinued at the end of June 2000, there has been no way to play the game in its intended form, unless original 8M Memory Packs are located, which still contain the original downloads. Because SoundLink vocal tracks were streamed and not saved to the 8M Memory Packs, all voice acting is lost to time.

For years, the only way the chapters have been available for fans is via ROM emulation. In 2010, Nintendo has included the Archanea Senki chapters on the Fire Emblem: Shin Monshō no Nazo: Hikari to Kage no Eiyū, a remake of Monshō no Nazo for the Nintendo DS.[2] This is the first time that Nintendo has released a Satellaview-exclusive title since the last broadcast in June 2000.[3]
