Apparently there's an item counter bug in the game, very similar to Galuda II. It happens at the screen where they explain the player controls, just like Galuda II. Lovely. :?

btw this is almost off topic but I knew there was a bug in esprade in stage 4 I think that increases your score a lot, but last time I had a go with this game I triggered a different bug at the stage 2 boss (I think it was when I died) that instantly maxed out my counter (my score was like 99,999,991) (yes I had continued at stage 2 don't laugh at me I was playing a 2 players game ^_^)
BUGGY !

Is this a known bug ?

I'm wondering if they actually put this in for fun. I mean seriously... how hard is to to put in one line of code for when the game starts that says "gems = 0".

I assume so. I don't see how they could have missed it.


You know, again.

I don't see what the fun of it is though.[/i]

So, if anyone in the states is interested in a DS kit, check out the sales forum! (Sorry for the shameless plug...) :oops: By the way, it is a great game...definitely not easy when on level 3 across the board.

Do people actually use the tutorial bug for ESPG2? I always start off maxing out my Over mode anyway, so extra gems would be worthless for me.

This game though it would seem pretty obviously useful.

Another bug spotted, and uploaded to b-board. Looks like you can move through the top part of a column of fire, if you park yourself in the upper left first...nice. Also has a replay of someone with perfect timing of counter ending and going back to 1000 in 1 second from a single mini-boss? Probably another bug.

Yes. You can get over 60 mil on the first stage using the bug.

You guys obviously don't know the difference between a bug and a Super Secret Trick.

Does Arcadia take scores using this bug? It would be a pretty hilarious secret bonus if so.

Of course. There's no way to confirm if it's been used or not. It's even used in 2 of the 3 super plays on the official DVD.

Such cruel suspense.

Anyway, this site:

http://am-net.xtr.jp/game/profile.cgi?_v=1188197292

Says the new stage is called "Canyon". That's about all the info I can find on it at the moment. :?
