The Emblem Blade, Lance Axe and Bow are pretty much Iron weapons with fifteen more uses and a paint job, allegedly "a tactician's weapons".

It should also be noted that the Emblem Bow does not get effective bonus against flying enemies.

I've had these bonuses for quite a long time myself. An early game Silver Card helps massively with S ranking.

Hey all! Important news--I found a way to get the bonus items without cheating. The method requires Dolphin and Visual Boy Advance, and the requisite ROMs and ISOs. I found this quote on a Dolphin forum:

Thanks to you,guys,i was able to transfer the special items from the Double Dash Bonus Disk to a dumped copy of my Fire Emblem.After all these years i finally got that Bonus Disk! I ran it on Dolphin and set controller port 2 to be GBA (just like the real Gamecube!).Then i used Joybus link option on VBA-M (Bios enabled) and the transfer ran smoothly.I got all the special promo items in my FE game without any cheating! For me who couldn't buy a Gamecube,Dolphin was my salvation.Thank you very much,Dolphin team!

Again, I'll try this when I get the chance.

EDIT: It seems you actually have to use Visual Boy Advance Merge, which has the "Joybus Link" option.

Hey guys, I can't remember how to load/which option I use to activate the .SAV file. Uhmmmm, I know this is simple but I've forgotten. A little help please? BTW I'm using VBA as my emulator

I've been using the 23.2 rerecording version, and the battery file import option is under the cheat tab. No wonder I couldn't find it. Thanks for the help!

Hello, everyone!

My attempt at a workaround using savestates didn't work. However, I tried using VBA-M with Dolphin, and found success! It was difficult doing this on a laptop, of all things, but now I've unlocked the bonus items on my own save file!

Furthermore, I have also made a save file with NO progress on it, but that has the transfer content. Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to post it here, but if anyone wants it, and knows of a way I can get it to them, I'd be happy to.

Why aren't you allowed to share the file?

Maybe upload a copy to Gamefaqs, at least :/

[Helswath]

SF won't let me post it as an attachment, and I don't have a Gamefaqs account. I also refuse to get a Gamefaqs account, because I don't want anything to do with the community.

I could post a Rapidshare if you want. It would expire after a while, but I could always re-upload.

Put in a zip file, and it should be allowed then. The forums have odd blocks for certain file extensions.

[Helswath]

As requested, here's the file! Thanks for the help, Celice!
