Debug mode:
Pause the game, hold L1 + R2 and press Up, Triangle, Down, X, Left, Square, Right, Circle.
Release L1 + R2 and press L1, R1, L2, R2. Wait a moment, then press Start followed by L2 + R2.
Then, a debug menu that allows invincibility, secret weapons, enemy summoning, toggle enemy AI,
FMV sequence skip, and other effects will appear
Slowmotion mode:After you put in the Debug Menu cheat, use one of the cheats. (ex: add guy,
secret weapon) Then if you pause during the game, you can push select
as fast as you want while it is paused to make the game move frame by
frame. You can control the ninjas during this.
Alternate Ayame costume:
At the item selection screen, press Left, Left, Down, Down, Square, Square, Triangle, Circle.
Then, the armor icon will automatically be selected. Now begin game play as Ayame and select
her third costume
Enable Japanese voices:
Select a character, then at the next screen (mission select), hold L1 and press Left, Left,
Down, Down, Square, Square, Triangle, Circle. Note: Japanese voice effects will start after
the first level; the narrative will remain in English.
Two Players:First do the debug mode. Then choose enemy option. Choose any enemy (a level
2 ninja would be the best). Then choose Pad-2. Then run away from P2. When
you see a question mark (near your life bar) run back to P2. Now Player 2 can
move the enemy you have selected for him/her. Try level 4 (The checkpoint) at
the bridge so you and P2 can fight and knock each other off.
Play as Onikage:First enter the debug code, access the debug screen, hit "charge item", then
"kawarimi", then hit FULL (this item is the "resurrection leaf", Ayame or
Rikymaru will have this item so that if they are atacked by an enemy they
won't kill them and the game will not end if they are killed). You will be
able to play as Onikage in the lever witch he apears:3,6,9 and 10. Enter the
debug screen again, choose "layout enemy", then "add", then choose "NINJA",
then "pad 1". Then go to the debug screen again, "layout enemy", then "go".
Walk in any direction far enough to let the normal play screen reapear
Onikage. Now enter the debug screen again, hit "layout enemy", then "select
camera owner", then hit the last number the apears on the second page of the
"camera owner screen" (except on level 10 witch is number 23 because Onikage
is not the final boss of this level). Now you will be able to play as Onikage
and see him as if you were playing with Rikymaru or Ayame. You can also add
any item to Onikage, except the "grapling hook", but you can use the item
"the world" instead, witch will move Onikage to the spot you are amming at.
This code can also be use for Lord Meyo (number 24 on level 10 only) or any
other enemy that you know the "camera owner" number.
Play as anyone in the entire game:First do the play as Onikage code only you don't have to pick Onikage. Just
pick any character and hit go. Then run away, when you come back your
character will do everything you say. Position your character to be looking
at you, jump and hit square in the air and it will hit you. Then pick select
camera owner and then pick the last number and you're set.
Note: this code is glitchy so don't try to use all different kinds of weapons
or the game will freeze
Unlimited amounts of an item:
First enter the debug code, access the debug screen, hit "charge item", choose any
item that you want, but instead of choosing 10, 100 or full, press Triangle, now you
should have that item without a number meaning that you have an unlimited amount of it.
But choose wisely because you won't be able to get rid of it afterwards.
