Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends – Marin’s weapon could be the Sea Lily’s Bell
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 5 Comments
During a panel at WonderCon last night, Marin was revealed as a new DLC character for the Link’s Awakening Pack in both Hyrule Warriors and Hyrule Warriors Legends. A slightly different look at the art was snapped at the event, which may reveal her primary weapon.
An image that looks a whole lot like the Sea Lily’s Bell is included in Marin’s original WonderCon artwork. Why was it removed in the image Nintendo posted on its Twitter account? I have no idea. But in any case, I can’t see what that can be other than the Sea Lily’s Bell. And given the inclusion in the art, that could very well be Marin’s primary weapon.
For those that are curious, in Link’s Awakening, the Sea Lily’s Bell is one of eight instruments you find that are collectively known as the Eight Instruments of the Sirens. These are needed to awaken the Wind Fish.

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 24 Comments
The Fox amiibo isn’t the only figure that works with Star Fox Zero. The Falco amiibo has its own unique unlock, too.
As shown in AbdallahSmash026’s live stream earlier today, by scanning it, you’ll unlock the Black Arwing. This not only features an original color scheme, but also has some functionality. Using it allows players to lock on to two enemies at once, and enemies will dish out three times the damage.
