Unlocking characters
To unlock all the characters, you must use your most
recently received characters at least once in arcade mode to continue
unlocking new ones.
Akuma: Demon Rage
When at level 3, press "LP"(2), [Right],
"LK", "HP". This is a technical move.
Cable: Taunt
Keep pressing "Taunt" when you are Cable. He will
practically keep spinning his pistol as long as he is not attacked.
Dhalsim: Control Yoga Flame
Choose Dhalsim and any other two characters. Get the
H.C. meter gauge higher then level 1, then do Dhalsim's Yoga Flame.
You can change direction of the flame by pressing [Up] or
[Down].
Hayato: Combos
Thirteen-Hit Plasma -Sword Combo: Get your hyper gauge to level
one. Jump in deep, press "LP", while still in the air press
"LK","LP", "LK", "HP", [Down], [Down/Right],
"HP", [Down], [Down/Right] ["LP," "HP"]
for seven hits.
Dark Knight: Get your special bar up to three, then press "LP",
"HP", [Back], "LK", "HK" quickly. Do this
when no more than half a screen away from your opponent. This
special can take up to one half life alone.
Hayato has three basic combo skills that can be used in the game.
No combo gauges will be used when the skills are used. Either
press [Left], "LP", "LP", "LP", "LP";
or [Left], "LP", "LP", "LP", "HK", "LP",
"LP"; or [Left], "HP", "LP", "HP", "HP",
"HP".
San San: One hit kill on Spider-Man
Use San San's Eating special and have the damage on
high. Spider-Man can be defeated with one special.
Tyrant: Blow him up
Send out the Tyrant. After he is done with his combo
and starts yelling, press the combo for her rocket launcher and
he will explode.
Stronger combos
While Team Hyper Combos are easy and powerful, delayed
combos are at most times much more powerful, though they are much
more difficult due to timing it to where you get the maximum power.
For example, with Megaman, War Machine, and Iron Man, if you do
their team combo it will do about a 40 to 60 hit combo; On the
other hand, if you do each of their combos delayed and execute
it correctly, you should be able to get from 75 to over 100 hits
with one solid shot. In order to do a delayed Hyper Combo, have
your first character do their combo. Then as they are doing the
Hyper Combo execute your next character's Hyper Combo. Then while
that one is executing, use your third character's Hyper Combo.
It is all about timing and may require some practice.
Over 86-hit combo
Choose Tronne Bonne, Servbot, and Guile. Have level
a 3 meter and have Guile in play. Press [L] + [R] to
do a combo doing 86 to 160 hits.
110-hit combo
At the character selection screen, choose Cable, Gambit,
and B.B Hood. You will have to unlock B.B Hood and Gambit by buying
them in the Secret Factor. During arcade mode, get up to at least
to level 3 or higher. Do their Hyper Combo specials. This combo
will do at least 110 hits and a lot of damage. It works better
when you are close to your opponent.
114-hit combo
Select Gambit, Iron Man, and War Machine, then get
a level 3 hyper combo gauge and do all their hyper combos ([L]
+ [R]). It should do a 114-hit combo. If not, try starting
the Hyper Combo with another person.
115-hit combo
Select Cable, T. Bonne, and Chalsm (in that order),
then get the level gauge up to at least 3. Do a hyper combo and
it will unleash a powerful blow. Note: Try to keep the enemy on
the ground. Also, this will not work every time. It will happen
about half of the time.
200-hit combo
Choose Cable, Iron Man, and B.B. Hood and get your
level 3 hyper combo (usually with punches in the air). Wait until
your opponent gets a striker out, then use the hyper combo. The
combo should do at least 150-220 hits.
Easy special
When your special meter is at 3 or higher, press [L]
+ [R] to do any character's special.
Easy win
Go to the options screen, then change the difficulty
to "1" and change the damage meter to all the way up.
This works very well on the last stage.
95% damage
Depending on the damage level, the following trick
may also result in a one hit kill. If set on 3 or maximum, it
will result in a one hit kill. If set on 2, it will be a 95% damage
attack. Choose Spiral, Hayato, and Silver Samurai. Get to level
3 or more to use the hyper combo for all of them ([L] + [R]).
Have Spiral out first, then get 3 or maximum level. Yse the hyper
combo and they all should come out and do their moves. Hayato
should do the attack where he hits the ground and energy beams
appear. Spiral should do the attack where she changes into every
character and hits the opponent. Then, Silver Samurai should appear
and slash at the opponent.
stage
In the clock tower stage, use Spider-Man's special
of flying kicks and punches when the opponent has low life so
when he dies he can break the house. Note: You have to make sure
that Spider-Man pushes him to the right.
You can also break the house in the clock tower stage with Juggernaut
using his Juggernaut Punch. You must push your enemy to the right
when the enemy has little life remaining.
