SEGA CD Game Secrets
Version 5
August 21, 1993

This list contains various secrets (easter eggs) for Sega CD games.  I
have maintained a similar list for the Sega Genesis since October 20,
1991.  I started this list on January 30, 1993.  New versions of this
list include every valid secret I have received, so please do not mail
me requesting "back issues."

Enjoy this list, and please help me out by mailing new secrets to me.
I am mostly looking for undocumented features that can not be
discovered through normal play, such as level selects, invincibility,
and so on.  Because I am not familiar with every Sega CD game, when
submitting a trick please use the current format and describe it
fully.  Also, since I can not test all of the secrets, if you notice a
mistake in one, please mail me the correction (preferably rewriting
the trick completely).  Thanks.

                       SEGA CD Game Secrets

BLACKHOLE ASSULT  (199?)
( Secret Game ) Play the game with your name entered as AZY (with no
period).  A secret game called Blackball Assult then comes up.  It is
a two player pong game with a couple variations and a great
soundtrack.

( Kill Opponents Instantly ) Play the game with your name entered as
BIGNET.  When you push the start button on controller 2, your opponent
will die immediately.

( See All Cinema Displays ) If you play the BHA Game as FOMA, Japanese
characters appear.  It is apparently a menu allowing you to select an
animation sequence from the game to watch.


COBRA COMMAND  (199?)
( Training Mode ) Press start at the title screen.  When you see the
words "Game Start" and "Config Mode," press Up, Down, Left, Right, and
Start.  You'll hear a short explosion sound.  You will now be able to
use the "Training" difficulty setting, which will let you continue at
the point you had reached when you were killed instead of being sent
back to the beginning of the stage.  This also apparently adds several
other new difficulties.


GOLDEN AXE  (1992)
( Stage Select ) To start on any of the levels in Golden Axe, go into
Arcade Mode.  Now push  to the Lower Left (the characters will spin on
the skeleton's hand) and press B and START at the same time.  A number
will appear in the top left hand corner.  Press Up and Down to adjust
what level to start on, then select you character and start the game.


MAKE MY VIDEO Discs  (199?)
( Hidden Footage )  This is known to work with "Marky Mark and the
Funky Bunch," "C+C Music Factory," and "Kris Kross."  It will probably
work with any title in the series.  At the "U-Direct" menu, press A,
B, C, Right to watch behind-the-scenes footage.  During any of the
footage, press Start to call up another sequence, the "Annals of
Digital Pictures," in which you see the creation of the "Make My
Video..." concept in 1986.


NIGHT TRAP  (199?)
( Hidden Footage ) Watch the credits at the end of the game.  When the
words "In Memory of Stephen D. Hassenfeld" appear on the screen, press
Up, A, A, A, A, A.  You'll be shown some footage that was shot in
Pawtucket, Rhode Island in December of 1986 when Tom Zito and company
first demonstrated a prototype of the ill-fated NEMO game system for a
group of Hasbro executives.  Milton Bradley's Larry Bernstein is seen
playing Scene of the Crime, which eventually became Night Trap.


REVENGE OF SHINOBI  (1992)
( Unlimited Shurikens ) For unlimited shurikens, set the number of
shurikens on the Options Screen to 00 until the zeros turn into an
infinity symbol.


ROAD AVENGERS  (199?)
( Level select ) From game start screen press UP to options (important
not to move down to options) and press start.  With the cursor on the
players option press the A button 6 times, and you will hear a beep.
Exit the options screen and start the game and you will be asked to
select the level.


SOL-FEACE  (1992)
(Level Select) On the title screen when it says "push start button,"
press A, B, C, A, B, C, B, C, B, A.  You will hear a short explosion.
Press start.  Go to the configuration menu and you will be able select
the level at which you want to start.

( Skip Level ) Do the level select.  Then, when in any level, at any
time, if you hit all three buttons (A,B,C) you will automatically skip
to the next level.

(99 lives and Invincibility) Do the level select.  Move the cursor to
options in the configuration menu.  Then push right on the D button
and then press A several times.  Eventually, the word "MY99" will
appear on the options menu.  "MY99" will give you 99 lives.  If you
continue to press A while pushing right on the D button, the word
"MUTEK1" will appear on the options menu.  "MUTEK1" will make your
ship invincible.  (There may be more special codes.)


TIME GAL  (199?)
( Stage Select ) Press start at the title screen to bring up the game
select.  Press left, right, right, and Up.  Now you can begin at any
level.
