Coin-Op, Video Game, and Arcade – Cheats, Easter Eggs, and Bugs

Try to hit or confine the following items: Immortality; Speed (faster beams); Magnetic (enemies freeze); Life. The laser is shot in <EM>both</EM> directions and you can move on immediately after firing.

Cheat at the character select screen: Quickly press C 6 times, B 3 times, then C 4 times to unlock Musashi.

There are several objects to shoot at for either more points or to change weapons. Some of these objects are a wagon wheel hub, a lantern, various items a person may be holding, and a skull.

Do not let too many hot-air balloons appear. Otherwise, the dreaded Red one will show up, making all of the other balloons move very quickly. Holding the speed button when diving or climbing will give you tighter turns. The longer you fly around in the pipes, the higher your score will get.<P>When you destroy the rockets, open the gate, finish flying through the plumbing and you will end up in the "blob" room. Here a green blob repeatedly drops from a pipe in the ceiling. If you adjust your airplane's attitude <EM>just so</EM>, you will be able to hold down the joystick, the Fast button and the Fire button, allowing your gun to destroy the blob each time you complete a loop 500 points each. This trick can be performed indefinitely -- or at least as long as you are able!

At the end you get their profound thanks for playing their game. Then you get 50 whips, 100,000 points, and a buncha extra lives. But why? Yoy already won, right? Well the big suprize is "WATCH OUT FOR THE STERN/KONAMI VULTURE. IF HE GETS YOU HE WILL PUT YOU BACK IN ROOM 1" "A A R R G G H H ! !" Yes the game starts over, with your huge amount of whips and extra lives, but at least you keep you score.

If the memory protect switch is on, the game will not run.
