2) Characters/Weapons/Magic Powers

Note : If a weapon has a "*" beside it, it can be upgraded to level 2 and
level 3.

Goemon
 The hero of the game, Goemon's only character flaw is his tendency to
lose his temper and get into fights. On the request of the King of Oedo
Town, he sets off to find out who and what is behind the mysterious
organization threatening to take over Japan.

Where Found - You start out him

Weapons -
*Pipe :
Goemon starts out with the Pipe. It's great for up-close combat.

Chain Pipe :
You get this from the Pipe Maker on Mt. Fuji. Like the Hookshot from
Zelda, it can hook on the Star Boxes (Well, that is somewhat like Zelda). Best
use for  defeating baddies from a little distance.

Ryo :
You can throw Ryo to attack. The ideal weapon for long-distance fighting. Of
course, each time you throw it, it will cost 1 Ryo.

Flaming Ryo :
Once you have donated 5 Ryo to the chest at Kompira Mt., you shall recieve the
Medal of  Flames. Instead of just throwing some Ryo, charge it up.
You will throw a Ryo surrounded by  flames. It costs 3 Ryo to do this
attack. The Flaming Ryo does x2 the amount of damage as a regular Ryo.

Magic Power - Sudden Impact :
With the need of 10 Ryo, it allows you to increase your power. Besides it
turning   Goemon's blue hair to gold, his attack power doubles,
but beware you absorb x2 the   amount of damage from an
enemy.

Ebisumaru
 A self-styled "Ninja of Justice" who does things his own way and in his
own good time. Settling down in Edo, he now lives with Goemon.

Where Found - You start out with him

Weapons -
*Saw-Hammer :
Ebisumaru starts out with this wooden hammer.

Meat Saw-Hammer :
One of the best weapons in the entire game! You can find this weapon in
Festival Temple Castle. Just about everytime you defeat a baddie, you can
usually get a heart-restoring Dumpling.

Windup Camera :
You can find this strange camera in Ghost Toys Castle from the Crane Game.
When it is used, it will reveal hidden paths, items, and it makes the ghosts
solid so they can be killed.

Magic Power - Mini- Ebisu :
This power shrinks Ebisumaru, allowing him to go through small doors and such.
You cannot attack while in small form.

Sasuke
 A mechanical ninja created by an Iga Wiseman. A tough cookie with a
trusting soul, Sasuke loves hot baths and Japanese green tea. I think
overall, he is the best fighter. =)

Where Found - Zazen Town, from Benkei

Batteries -
#1 :
Where - Inaba Dune
How to get it - Go to the lake, the battery will be in the center of it
#2 :
Where - The Lake With The Large Tree (I think that is what it's called)
How to get it - Use the Windup Camera in the tree, then the battery will
appear on top of it.

Weapons -
*Kunai :
Sasuke starts out with the Kunai blade.

Fire Cracker Bomb :
The mechanical ninja starts out with this bomb. Using this bomb on cracked
doors, they will open up.

Hair Attack :
No, it's not a weapon. From the start, Sasuke can do this attack by holding
down B, then pressing Z. Good for atacking enemies that are above you . Also,
if you are lying down on the ground and do this, you will attack forward.

Kunai of Severe Cold :
One nifty weapon. Found in Festival Temple Castle. It freezes enemies and some
hot floors. But the effect is only temporary. Great for long distance attacks.
Everytime you use this weapon, it costs 1 Ryo. If you charge it up, it will
fire the Kunai Intense Hail Beam which fires 3 shots of the freezing sword.
That costs 3 Ryo.

Magic Power - Super Jump :
Using the Super Jump allows Sasuke to get to high places you could not access
by jumping regularly. It's good for dodging incoming attacks, too.

Yae
 A secret ninja agent who investigates the toughest cases of all, Yae is
like an older sister to Goemon and co.

Where Found - Zazen Town

Weapons -
*Katana :
Yae starts out with this Japanese blade. Once upgraded to Level 2, she can
"create" a shield from the sword by holding down B.

Koryuta's Flute :
You get this special flute from Koryuta, once you have destroyed the Mind-
Control Robot      when he was in dragon
form. This flute allows to you visit just about anywhere you've been. You can
use it in some buildings, wonder why it said you can't. I used in the Yamato
Shrine and one cave and it still worked.

Yae Bazooka :
You get this bazooka from Gourmet Submarine Castle. Probably the best long
distance attacking weapon. When fired, it uses 1 Ryo. Charge it up, it will do
a "lock-on"   attack. When that is fired, any enemy in a
target will usually be hit. That costs 3 Ryo.

Magic Power - Mermaid :
While on top of the water, using this will turn Yae into a mermaid. You are
now able to swim under the water to reach items like a Fortune Doll and other
things.

Goemon Impact
 A gigantic robot who is an invaluable ally to Goemon and his pals.
Already a successful dancer, Impact has now set his heart on becoming a
movie star.

Where Found - Call him with the Triton Shell from Wise Man's House.

Moves & Controls -
A : Quick Punch, fast but weak attack.
B : Fierce Punch, slow but strong attack.
Z : Fires Nasal Bullets, cost 1 Ryo for each time fired.
R : Uses Chain Pipe, drag in the boss and whack him!

still can be  damaged but not as much.

3) Bosses/Impact Bosses

Here, I'll tell you about the bosses and how to beat them. Here is a neat
trick for the Impact Bosses, when you fire the Laser Beam, you won't be
harmed. Not any kind of attack will harm you!

Boss #1- Congo : The King Robot
The easy way to beat the giant head is stand under his chin. Keep attacking
the front because  that is the only spot he is vunerable. When there is
an explosion, chunks of his head will be  destroyed. Be careful though,
when the explosive comes, he fire a beam that I call "Glitter  Beam".
If you stand in front when he explodes, chances are you will get hit by the
beam.

Impact Boss #1- Kashiwagi : The Wartime Kabuki Robot
Here is when you need to know the manevers for Impact. I hook him with the
Chain Pipe and  punch him when I drag him in, a lot. Don't do the same
moves over and over because he will  predict what you will do and block
it. Here is my little combo I do that does about 520 points of  damage
: Drag him in with the Chain Pipe, knock him on the ground, then while he is
on the  ground, fire the Impact Laser. It will still hit him even
though he is on the ground. His special attack is making a copy of himself.
The copy will attack you, but the real one won't.

Boss #2- Mind-Control Robot
Not really a boss, but it kinda is. You can only attack him when he isn't
spinning. When he isn't  attack him with Ryo. I'd rather use Ryo
because I might fall off the dragon. I found a strange glitch here. When I
was hit by him, Goemon appear the whole way to the right off the dragon.
So then I had to go back to the robot. When this guy spins, he fires those
metal balls at you at a decent speed.

Boss #3- Dharmanyo : The Surrender Robot
That name doesn't fit this easy robot. He should be the one surrendering.
Anyway, use the  Windup Camera to reveal his weakpoint. Then when he is
"clear", fire the Medal of Flames at  the spot. Keep repeating until he
is dead. He will fire bombs at you, but keep on running at full speed to avoid
them.

Boss #4- Tsurami : The Ghost Robot
One of more harder bosses. Just keep hitting him with the so-called "red
plates". He has 3 attack methods, here they are :
#1 : Easy. Throws plates at a medium rate.
#2 : He throws plates at a much faster rate.
#3 : HARD!!! He throws plates in all directions, but when they hit the ground
they explode.
You need to hit 4 times in each form of attack.

Impact Boss #2 - Thaisamba 2 : The Charming Mermaid
Now this battle takes place on the water. Not that much different from the
another boss. The special attack is a "tornado" of water. You view from the
cockpit is blurry. She will hit you with those exploding balls again. Then she
will pop up and hit you with her eyeball (at least, that's what it looks
like). Once the mermaid has her energy level close to 1,000 the battle will go
underwater. Then she will charge at full speed at you, just do a fierce punch
on her and it will knock her on the oceanfloor. =) Then she has a "fake"
attack. She will charge you from one direction, but at the last second she
will move into another direction. Then she will attack you. The good thing for
this boss is that she can't block your attacks, so you can do the same moves
over and over.

Impact Boss #3 - Balberra : The Great Peach Mountain Battleship
The only boss you can't drag in and punch. Destroy the guns, leaves and all of
the little things on the ship. The Peach Fighters will try to shoot you, but
you know how to take "care" of them. When the battleship opens, it reveals its
"core". Shoot that core to damage it. It only opens when you destroy the Peach
Fighters. Every hit with a Nasal Bullet does 5 points damage. A hit from the
Chain Pipe will do 20 points damage.

Impact Boss #4 - D 'Etoile : The Fairy of Love and Dreams
The hardest Impact Boss in the game! One of his best attacks is what I call
the Roller Attack. If you get hit, it does about 50 points damage. This attack
is almost unavoidable! He spins around and fires those explosive balls at you.
Then he has his asteroid attack. Easy to avoid. Use the fierce punch on each
asteroid to blow it up. If you use quick punch, you won't be able to destroy
it in time. When he fires the explosive balls at you he fires them at two
speeds. #1 : He shoots them one at a time. #2 : This one he spins to one side.
While going to the other side, there will be a bunch of balls coming at you.
Shoot them with the bullets instead of punching.
