|This FAQ will cover the solutions for all Trick, and Decoder boxes      |
|within Genma Onimusha. Some actually think the solutions are the same   |
|as the PS2 version. The fact is, you’re dead wrong. The combinations     |
|have indeed changed. I will also list the contents of each box, and it's|
|location.                                                               |
