WHAT'S NEW IN VERSION 4.0:
-VERSION 4.0 is the ultimate version of this FAQ, and most likely the
final one.
Every single move for every single character is now included, and all of the
errors and/or tricks from the last version have been corrected.
-The storyline and character information have been removed, as this is now
strictly a hard-core moves list. Besides, my translations were less than
perfect, anyhow (although I did as well as, if not a better job than they
did in the U.S. version's instruction manual!)
-The Options Screen information was removed as well, for the same reason as the
character information: this is a moves list, not an instruction manual. The
instruction manual explains all of that anyway. :)
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
LEGEND:
U = Up
D = Down
F = Forward
B = Back
P = Punch
K = Kick
G = Guard
UF = Diagonal Up/Forward
DF = Diagonal Down/Forward
UB = Diagonal Up/Back
DB = Diagonal Down/Back
+ = "and"
(Hold) = Hold the key (do not release immediately)
(High, Mid, Low) = Area of your opponent where the particular moves will hit.

THE SECRET TRICKS
MANUAL MEMORY SAVE - Rather than keep the Replay Save option on all the time,
just press the 'SELECT' button after a round to bring up the option to save the
current fight to a memory card.
TO FIGHT XTAL - To fight XTAL, play through the entire game on 'NORMAL' level or
higher without continuing.
FIGHT AS ZULU - To fight as ZULU, you must play through the entire game and
defeat
him with each character. Difficulty setting and/or # of continues used is not a
factor.
FIGHT AS XTAL - To fight as XTAL, you must play through the entire game with any
character at the 'NORMAL' or 'HARD' difficulty setting WITHOUT continuing.
FIGHT AS NECO - To fight as NECO, you must play through the entire game with
both
ZULU and XTAL. Difficulty setting and/or # of continues used is not a factor.
AREA SELECT - Play in 2P VS. PLAY mode with ZULU and with XTAL. Win a round with
a lap time of less than 5 seconds (05"00) with both of them, and from then on
you will be able to choose your area of battle when playing in VS. PLAY. (Note: This
Area 00 - TAU
Area 01 - NEREID
Area 02 - ZERO
Area 03 - IO
Area 04 - CYGNUS
Area 05 - DRACO
Area 06 - EOS
Area 07 - WILD3
Area 08 - ZULU
Area 09 - XTAL/NECO
COLOR SELECT - After beating the game, you can choose from among 16 different
color
schemes for the character you select. To choose a different color, hold 'SELECT'
and press any one of the eight attack buttons. Player 1 and Player 2 each have
their own set of 8 color palettes each.
SPECIAL CONGRATULATIONS SCENE - Play until your total playing time exceeds 200
hours. You'll get a special congratulations screen with cool artwork of the
characters.
DIGITAL COMIC - So far, nobody (including myself) has been able to confirm
whether or not the digital comic (starring ZERO and NECO) from the Japanese
version of the game is hidden away in the U.S.A. version. If anyone finds it,
we'll just have to make a version 4.01 of the FAQ. :)
HIDDEN GAME - To play the hidden game, TINY PHALANX, turn off your machine, hold
'SELECT' and 'START' on the second controller, and boot up the machine. Continue
to hold the buttons down until after the Zoom logo appears, and the hidden game
will load up. Get the high score and beat the game and you should be eligible to
fight NECO.
