============================================================================
A. Foreword
-----------
Cool Cool Jam is a good game. It was actually released for the Neo-Geo
Pocket Color. Another game called Cool Cool Toon is also available to play
on Sega's last game system, the Dreamcast. Well, this game's about a boy
and a girl entering a world that's 1,000 years after their original world.
The humans in that world are not normal, their appearance is what I'm
talking about. That world is all about music! Their goal is to form a cool
music band in order to return to their original world.
The game, as I mentioned, is all about music. Instruments and other
musical stuff are the major part of the game. When you're about to play on
an instrument, you might need to set your NGPC correctly.
Cool Cool Jam is a Japanese game. And since I can't understand and, of
course, talk Japanese, it'll be a hard thing to me to understand the entire
game's storyline. Anyway, I still have a good idea of what's going on, and
I made a step-by-step walkthrough to guide you throughout the whole game.

B. Updates History
------------------
Version 1.0 | 8/09/2003
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The first edition of the FAQ.
============================================================================
II. Basics
============================================================================
A. Rules
--------
One or two use Neo-Geo Pocket Color to perform a solo or duet. One
player plays with a tune. Two players take turns performing. Trade off
when messages appear.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
B. Controls
-----------
Directional Pad Movement.
A Accept/CLAP the Beats mini game/Red
lights string.
B Refuse/Green lights string.
Option Menu.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
C. The Menu
-----------
The menu has more than a use. You can view your characters, their
levels and things, save/load a game save, know the time, etc. To access to
it, press Option. The save menu is on the top. There are two places to
save on by the way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
D. CLAP the Beats
-----------------
This is a mini game that you can play to gain the attention of the
people around you (the ones you can see at the moment you play). It could
also continue the story, give you items, and/or level your characters'
abilities up. To play, press A. Then, press A whenever a big, red ball
(see the picture below, the dots are the O's) be on the centre. If a red
colour shines, that means you've done a correct CLAP.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
E. Playing on the Violin
------------------------
To play on the Violin, use A and B to play the strings. Watch the two
colour symbols move, and when the 7th symbol shines, press A if it's red, or
B if it's green. Give the Violin the power by moving the Lever (the
joystick). Sometimes you have to press both of them, so be careful not to
miss anything.
Note: when playing Violin, hold your NGPC on the direction as the following
arrow.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
F. Playing on the Bluesharp
---------------------------
The main object in the Bluesharp is the Lever on the centre. Watch the
moves of the lights, and decide which side of the three that you should
place the Lever in (right, left, and centre). Also, each one of the
previous directions has two sides; up and down, so placing the Lever without
deciding up or down will not give a use. You must hold up or down
(depending on the place of the lit spot), and then press A if the light's
red, or B if it's green.
Note: there's no need to change the position of your NGPC while
playing/watching this instrument, because it's originally correct.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
G. Playing on the Guitar
------------------------
Play strings with A, B buttons. Use the joystick as the pick. Watch
the 2 colour symbols move. And when the 8th symbol shines, move the
joystick & push A if the symbol is red or B if it's green. To press both,
push A & B while moving the joystick.
Note: when playing Guitar, hold Neo-Geo Pocket Color upside-down (see this
arrow).

H. Playing on the Saxophone
---------------------------
Move joystick up and down & press A, B buttons to play different
pitchs. A, B and Up, Down symbols appear on the screen with the music.
When the 8th marker shines, push the button or the joystick in the direction
of the symbol. You may need to use all three!
Note: hold the unit upright with buttons facing out to play sax.

I. Playing on the Trumpet
-------------------------
The Trumpet has four Pitches. Each has a colour. Use the joypad as
the Lever, so that you can give the instrument the needed air. When the
last mark shines, press the correct button. The metre on the side shows the
current air.
Note: hold your NGPC with the follwing direction...

J. Playing on the Scratch
-------------------------
In spite of its look, the Scratch is like the Guitar. The only
difference (besides the look) is the upside-down screen.
Note: when playing Scratch, hold Neo-Geo Pocket Color upside-down (see this
arrow).

III. Interesting Characters
============================================================================
This section contains quick direction on how to get the members of the
band. You can refer to it instead of the walkthrough.
Wave: If you choose "boy" from the beginning of the game, you'll play as
this character.
How to Get: This is the character you play as from the beginning.
Midi: If you choose "girl" from the beginning of the game, you'll play
as this character.
How to Get: This is the character you play as from the beginning.
Ranke: Plays the Bass. Is an authority of the folks in Musey Town.
How to Get: With you from the beginning.
T. Bone: He's a Drummer. He's nothing but skin and bones. Drumming did
that to him.
How to Get: Go to Fusion and CLAP the Beats correctly in front of
each one in the first screen. Stand between the
enterance and the plants and T. Bone will appear.
Rime: This is the Bluesharp player.
How to Get: In day 1, go to Bossa Nova, in the second screen. Go
to the corner of the upper right. Win.
Chiffon: Plays the Saxophone. She's a first-rate player! But she's
capricious.
How to Get: This has to be a quest. Do it in order to get this
Chiffon. Go to Fusion, go to the screen to the North
of the first one. Go to a girl in black, and CLAP
the beats successfully then talk to here several
times. Go to Rock and search then talk to here
(she's in a screen to the left from up). Go to
Raggae and she's in the second screen. Talk and play
the bass very well.
Note: This might need exact timing, so keep going
there until you see her.
Roud: A great Guitarist. But no one knows where he is.
How to Get: I still haven't found this, but he is in the game. I
will update the FAQ when I know, or when someone
sends me that.
Lago: A Trumpet-playing kid. He's born to play the Horn.
How to Get: I still haven't found this, but he is in the game. I
will update the FAQ when I know, or when someone
sends me that.
???: This is the Violin player.
How to Get: I still haven't found this, but he is in the game. I
will update the FAQ when I know, or when someone
sends me that.
???: This is the Scratch player.
How to Get: I still haven't found this, but he is in the game. I
will update the FAQ when I know, or when someone
sends me that.
============================================================================
IV. Walkthrough
============================================================================
Again, I don't know any Japanese. Therefore, there should be some
minor/major mistakes. If you can correct anyone of them, please contact me.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A. The Beginning
----------------
After selecting Joinas, and New Game from the menu, you'll start the
game. Wave and Midi are listening to an operator talking about a show in
Lazy Lion Club. A question will pop-up, then, asking you whether you're a
boy (so you play as Wave), or a girl (so you play as Midi).
Then, you should input your name. For the FAQ's sake, choose the
English letters and enter "WAVE" as a name for your character (the boy).
Choose the fourth option to the right to confirm the name. Then, input the
girl's name, "MIDI," also from the English letters. Next, you'll be asked
if you want to see some cut-scenes in the Lazy Lion Club.
At 12:00, you'll be in Musey Town after the cut-scenes, and the chats.
You'll meet a green creature called Ranke. She'll CLAP the Beats, just
watch that for the first time. Then you gotta CLAP the Beats, too. Press
A whenever a big, red ball be on the centre. If a red colour shines, that
means you've done a correct CLAP. You'll then talk to a guy standing
nearby. After that, you'll return to Ranke, and talk more. She'll tell you
that there is only one way you can return to your original world (which had
passed 1,000 years ago) by getting the Jam. And, in order to do that, you
must form a band! She'll finally join you.
__________________________________________________________________________
( Congrats! Ranke, the Bass player, joined your band! )
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Now go up.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
B. Forming the Band
-------------------
You, already, have one character in your band who is, Ranke. There are
some more to meet. Once you are there, in Fusion, perform good CLAPs in
front of each one on the first screen only, then talk to them. Stand in
front of the enterance (near the plants), and, suddenly, T. Bone will
appear. After the chat, he'll join you.
__________________________________________________________________________
( Congrats! T. Bone, the Drummer, joined your band! )
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
So, there are you, Wave, Ranke, and this new T. Bone. Do you see those
small plants just near you? Pass them by going right, and then up. Go to
the next screen. There's a girl in black standing here. She's called
Chiffon. Stand in front of her, but don't talk. If you talk, you can go
back one screen, then come again. Once you stand in front of her, press A
(or the CLAP). Play once, and then talk. She'll chat with you, then
disappears. Now, go left one screen, and up the stairs leading to Rock!
Pass the lights (walking between them), and head to the next screen.
Here, Chiffon again. Chat with here yet another time, then she'll
disappear. Now go right to the previous screen. Here, go down. In
this screen, up the stairs leading to the main square of Musey Town.
Pass those annoying guys, and head down. Here, head right to Reggae.
Go right to the next screen.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
C. Play with the Villagers of Fusion
------------------------------------
Now that you've returned to the first square of Musey Town (where you
fell down from up). Go up to return to Fusion. There are a lot of
Villagers in Fusion. Here is a map of Fusion so I can say where those
are...
__________________________
| | | |
| | C | G |
|B | | |
|________|________|________|
| | | |
|M | C | B |
| | | |
|________|__|ST|__|________|
Each square of the previous map shows a screen in Fusion. The ST means
where you start (the enterance). C is the Child. There are two Children.
B is the Boy. There are also two Boys. G is the Girl. And M is the Man.
Each one has the same session with you, so the next paragraphs can be
applied on anyone of them. You must perform a good CLAP in front of each
one. You may need to talk to some of them more than once (up to thrice).
Tell the one you are about to play with "Yes" when he/she asks you, and
then, choose a sound from the two available. You and T. Bone or Ranke will
play a session. The instrument is Violin, so get prepared.
____________________________________________________________________________
\Session in Joinas 1/
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
The opponent will start playing. Set your Neo-Geo Pocket Color well,
so you can see the session correctly. When she finishes, your turn comes.
Always remember, A button is for red lights, and B button is for green ones.
The Lever is your d-pad. You'll also play on the Violin. Don't forget when
to use the Lever for power. Next is T. Bone's or Ranke's turn. T. Bone
will play on his Drum or Ranke will play her E. Bass. Just watch that, and
of course, set your NGPC back originally. They're cool! They may only miss
one time, but I'm sure most of the times, they get all of the lights
correct. After that, the Villager will play again on his/her Violin. If
you've chosen the second sound, you'll play again after the Villager. And
this finishes the session.
____________________________________________________________________________
If you did well, he/she will give you a prize. If you don't, try again
until you win. Well, don't ask me how can you know how to when, because
Jazzy Egg (the egg you see while playing on an instrument) will be happy if
you have done good, will be dancing if you have done cool, or will be shy
and sad if you've done bad. The Villager will give you the prize if you
didn't do bad, so there's a good chance. The prize is either 4 pieces of a
picture of Drums, or 4 pieces of a picture of a Violin. Even when you win,
you still can play again whenever you want. Try to complete both pictures.
I've noticed that you can also complete the pictures by playing the CLAP in
front of some people (e.g. the skull near the Fusion Store, and the Man in
that Store), but, try to get them by playing since it's better.
By anyway, once you get those pictures, go to Fusion Store. It's
located in the screen which is above the first one. The grey building.
There, talk to the seller, then you'll automatically get outside. By the
way, the Store has things to sell, so once you can buy, come here. Go down
two screens to exit Fusion, and reach the Musey Town square. Go right to
Bossa Nova!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
D. Play with the Villagers of Bossa Nova
----------------------------------------
Always remember that you've not ended the search of Chiffon, since she
isn't in your band yet. Anyway, that's not what we should think of now.
Bossa Nova is the place of the Bluesharp, their famous instrument. Well,
it's a small place actually; it consists of two screens only. On the first
one, seek for PYI (coloured pink & green), and CLAP the Beats. There's
another PYI in the other screen that you can also CLAP the Beats in front
of, and play then. Anyway, choose one of them, and after you do well in the
CLAP, go and talk. Agree to play.
____________________________________________________________________________
\Session in Joinas 2/
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Well, unlike Session 1, this is using the Bluesharp as mentioned above.
The controls are not the same. In Session 1, we used the Violin. The only
thing that was hard is the power. Here, there's no need to give the
instrument the power. Instead, you should change the note according to the
place of the lights. The lights come from six places not two. One of them
has only six unlit spots. The rest (the five) have seven unlit spots. When
the seventh spot shines, press A if it is red, and B if it is green. Change
the Lever by moving the stick. In my opinion, this is much easier than the
Violin. PYI will start the session. Then you play. Next, Ranke will play
on her Wood Bass or T. Bone will play on his Drum. The next turn is PYI's.
You may even get another turn depending on the selected sound. And this
finishes the session.
____________________________________________________________________________
For winning, you'll get 4 pieces of a picture of a Bluesharp. Try to
get a full picture. By the way, you can get some from the Girl in the first
screen here.
If you are in day 1, go to the second screen. Go to the corner of the
upper right. You'll see Rime (coloured blue). Just play on the bluesharp
and win.
__________________________________________________________________________
( Congrats! Rime, the Bluesharp player, joined your band! )
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Now that's it here; it's time to get to another place. Return
to the main square of Musey Town.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
E. Play with the Villagers of Rock
----------------------------------
From the main square of Musey Town, head left. You'll get to Rock. In
Rock, I've found four people who you can play with. A map to Rock is needed
because the place is big unlike Bossa Nova.
__________________________
| | | |
| | | G |
| | | |
|________|________|________|
| | | |
| | L | S |
| H | | ST_
|________|________|________|
As in the previous map, each square of the previous map shows a screen
in Rock. The ST means where you start (the enterance). S is the Skeleton.
G is the Girl. L is the Lady. And H is the man who wears a Hat. Each one
has the same session with you, so the next paragraphs can be applied on
anyone of them. You must perform a good CLAP in front of each one. You may
need to talk to some of them more than once (up to thrice).
Tell the Villager "Yes" when he/she asks you, and then, choose a sound
from the two available. You and T. Bone or Ranke will play a session. The
instrument is Guitar, so get prepared.
____________________________________________________________________________
\Session in Joinas 3/
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
You play on the Guitar in this session. It's hard IMP. But, you have
to beat it. Anyway, the session starts, as always, with a quick
demonstration from the Villager, then your turn comes. Do well. You press
A or B depending on the colour (red or green) while moving the d-pad. Move
the d-pad as a circle so you do all the direction including the correct one.
Ranke will use her E. Bass on her turn, and T. Bone will use his Drum in
this session. Then, as always, the turn is the Villager's. You'll be given
another turn after that to finish the session. BTW, don't forget to put
your NGPC upside-down while playing/watching the Guitar.
____________________________________________________________________________
I think that the Skeleton doesn't have prizes, because I played with
him several times without getting any prize after that. Anyway, it might be
my bad performance, because the Guitar took a lot of my time until I
mastered it. You'll get 4 pieces of a picture of a Guitar. Complete the
picture, then move to the enterance (shown in the map above). Get out of
Rock, and from the main square of Musey Town, go down. This is another
square that we've passed in, remember? Anyway, go to the right, to Reggae,
the place of the Saxophone.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
F. Here You Are, Chiffon
------------------------
Well, first of all, Raggae is as small as Bossa Nova. Only two
screens. In the first screen, there's a Man who you can CLAP then play
with. In the second screen, there's a Lady. You can also play with her by
the same method. You may need to talk to them more than once. Try
collecting a full picture of a Saxophone. Also, try doing a good CLAP in
front of the other Man/Lady in the second screen to get the rest of the
pieces.
____________________________________________________________________________
\Session in Joinas 4/
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
By looking at the title, Chiffon is mentioned, but that's not now, let
us play some sessions with the Villagers first. The instrument here is the
Saxophone. Some say it's hard, but if you practice, it'll be easy on you.
The Villager (Man/Lady) starts with his/her turn. Watch carefully until
your turn comes. BTW, don't forget to set the unit correctly. The Sax has
four Pitches; red (A button), green (B button), blue (Left button), and
orange (Right button). The blue & orange Pitches, if you set the unit
correctly, will be look like Up & Down buttons, but they are actually Left
& Right. It's not hard, just try not to miss the Pitches. Once your turn
finishes, T. Bone's or Ranke's turn comes. As always, T. Bone uses his
Drum and Ranke uses her E. Bass. The Villager will take the next turn.
You'll take the final (fifth) turn, and will finish the session. This
session is really cool! I like it.
____________________________________________________________________________
As you should already know, you'll get 4 pieces of a picture of a Sax
by winning. So, try to win more than once. Now. Search for Chiffon
standing in one of the corners of the second screen of Raggae. Talk to her
(no need for CLAPing the Beats). Select the first choice. Also, select a
sound. See Session in Joinas 4 for more info on how to win this session.
If you win this session, Chiffon will join your band, eventually.
__________________________________________________________________________
( Congrats! Chiffon, the Sax player, joined your band! )
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Now go to the first screen, and from there, get out of Raggae.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
G. Playing with the Villagers of Funk
-------------------------------------
We've done good so far. Now, head to Funk (to the left). Funk is
really big comparing with Bossa Nova or Raggae. As you enter this place,
move to screen 5 (see the map below). There's a green and red creature.
Talk. After the talk, you should start your things now. Here's a map for
the place for a better understanding.
__________________________

| | | S |
| B | C | ST_
|________|________|________|
|4 |5 |6 |
| | C | |
| L | | H |
|________|________|________|
Each square of the previous map shows a screen in Funk. The ST means
where you start (the enterance). C is the Child. There are two Children.
B is the Boy. L is the Lady. H is the man who wears a Hat. And S is the
Skeleton. Each one has the same session with you, so the next paragraphs
can be applied on anyone of them. You must perform a good CLAP in front of
each one. You may need to talk to some of them more than once (up to
thrice).
Tell the one you are about to play with "Yes" when he/she asks you, and
then, choose a sound from the two available. You and T. Bone or Ranke will
play a session. The instrument is Trumpet, so get prepared.

\Session in Joinas 5/
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
You should understand this quickly, but I'll explain how to use the
Trumpet, because some people may begin the game with this session. It's
possible; you are the one who decides where to begin, but I use this method.
Anyway, I think that this instrument is, well, you can say it's hard. The
Villager always start a turn, watch that setting the unit correctly. The
previous instrument, the Sax, has four Pitches. The Violin has to be given
power. The Trumpet which we're about to use combines both of the styles; 4
Pitches & a Lever. You must give the instrument air by moving the Lever.
Also, be careful of the colours of the Pitches to know which button to
press. After you finish, T. Bone will use his Drum, or Ranke will use her
E. Bass. And finally, the Villager will end the session with a final turn
as usual.
____________________________________________________________________________
For winning, you get 4 pieces of a picture of a Trumpet. Complete the
picture from collecting the pieces here and there. Now head to the
enterance in screen 3 (see the map). Get out of Funk.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
H. The House
------------
From your position, move down to reach the next screen, the House. A
map showed be drawn for this place.

|G | | S |
| | H | |
|________|________|________|
|4 |5 |6 |
| | | |
| | S | B |
|________|________|________|
ST is the start position or the enterance. H is the man with the Hat.
S is the Skeleton. There are two of them here. G is the Girl. And, B is
the Boy. Screen 3 & 5 might have two persons who will give you some of the
rest pieces. Just play the CLAP. BTW, the people here use Scratch. Don't
ask how to play the Scratch, if you can play the Guitar, it'll be really
easy. The look of the Scratch is different, but the controls are similar
to the Guitar. Try to get the two pictures that left (Bass & Scratch).
Refer to the Scratch section in this FAQ to know more about how to use
it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
H. Ending
---------
OK, wherever you are in the game, once the time reaches 00:00 (that
means 12 a.m.), or you begin day 8, your adventure will end in this town.
Wave will say farewell to his band and will leave them. The game will be
over. The cast (your band's members) will be viewed, then the credits will.
Congratualtions! You've beaten Cool Cool Jam. Try getting all the members,
and figure out what I've been missing.
============================================================================
V. Miscellanous
============================================================================
A. Main Menu
------------
The Main Menu consists of the following...
O Joinas
This is where you start/continue playing the game.
O Session
Here, you play sessions with other players (with a friend of
yours or someone else). You choose the music and the
instrument. See the Basics section to know how to play on an
instrument.
O Museum
Here, you just view the instruments and the controls.
O Tuning
This is the options menu.
O Joint
This needs some kind of cables or things I really don't know
of. But, if you have it/them, do the connection to a
Dreamcast with a copy of Cool Cool Toon (yeah, another game
in the series), and you can upload to or download from it.

B. Frequently Asked Questions
-----------------------------
Q-01. What can we do with the pictures?
A-01. You can buy things from the stores with them.
Q-02. Is this game linear or not?
A-02. It is not. There isn't really a main goal to do. Just collect as
much members for your band as you can within a week from since you
have reached this town.
Q-03. How can I know how much time is left?
A-03. Press the Option button and the menu will be opened. There is a
clock above. It shows the time in a 24h style (no a.m. or p.m.).
The day is one number left to the clock with some Japanese letters.
When it's 7, make sure you get ready to leave.
Q-04. I have a question/addition to this FAQ.
A-04. You are very welcome to contribute anything. My email's
[email protected].
Q-05. Will this be your last update for the FAQ?
A-05. I don't think so.

VI. Conclusion
============================================================================
Well, this guide now should be finished. I hope you might get useful
things from it. Any contribution will be useful, I think. That's it for
now. I would like to thank CJayC for making GameFAQs. By the way, it's
been almost a year since my first FAQ has been posted. And this is my 13th
FAQ. Thanks for reading and have a look at my other FAQs out there...
