AUTHOR'S NOTE
I bought my Game.Com for Resident Evil 2, but I got it with a package that
came with every game that was released for it. So, here I am, writing a guide
for a rather difficult to control fighting game. I'm hoping that the moves in
this work since anyone who has played a Game.Com knows that the D-Pad not the
most responsive. I played this damn thing all day to try and get it right.
Hopefully I did. And hopefully it'll be helpful to someone.
________________________________________________________________________________
COURSES
In the game, you will have to choose different courses on which to fight. These
courses will then determine just which characters you unlock. It doesn't matter
what difficulty settings you complete the courses on. The courses are simply a
list of different fighters. They are as follows:
--[ Course A ]------------------------------------------[ Unlock : Kids Sarah]--
Round: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Bahn Candy Pai Sanman Janet Akira
Strategy:
The easiest way to win these battles on all difficulties is to simply
use low kicks. Kick them into the corner and just keep kicking the hell
out of them. Sure, it's cheap, but it works.
--[ Course B ]----------------------------------------------[ Unlock : Janet ]--
Round: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Akira Lion Mahler Bahn Sanman Kids Sarah
Strategy:
The easiest way to win these battles on all difficulties is to simply
use low kicks. Kick them into the corner and just keep kicking the hell
out of them. Sure, it's cheap, but it works.
--[ Course C ]---------------------------------------------[ Unlock : Hornet ]--
Round: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Lion Pai Siba Candy Jacky Mahler
Strategy:
The easiest way to win these battles on all difficulties is to simply
use low kicks. Kick them into the corner and just keep kicking the hell
out of them. Sure, it's cheap, but it works.
--[ Course D ]-------------------------------------------------[ Unlock Siba ]--
Round: 1 2 3 4 5 6
Mahler Sanman Pai Akira Bahn Hornet
Strategy:
The easiest way to win these battles on all difficulties is to simply
use low kicks. Kick them into the corner and just keep kicking the hell
out of them. This only works up to Hornet, though. During the Hornet
battle, you will have to use high kicks to take them out easily.
________________________________________________________________________________
CHARACTERS/MOVELISTS
All of the fighters in Fighter's Megamix have these moves in common:
A - Punch (P or p)
B - Kick (K or k)
C - Guard (G)*
D - Evade (E)*
* Note that I am using Guard and Evade rather than Block and Dodge for
readability reasons.
U (U, u) Jump, Rise
+-+ (UB, ub) Jump back, rise and fall back
UB / | | \ UF (UF, uf) Jump forward, rise and step forward
+--+ +--+ (B, b) Back off, step back
B | | F (F, f, f+F) Walk forward, step forward, Run forward
+--+ +--+ (DB, db) Duck and lose ground, duck and step back
DB \ | | / DF (DF, df) Duck and recover ground, duck and step forward
+-+ (D, d) Duck
D
The capitalization denotes whether it is a tap of a held button. For example:
D+k, k Low Double-Kick Press and hold Down while tapping Kick twice.
If there is a comma (,), it means in quick succession. If there is a period (.)
then is means to wait a second before finishing the combo.
So far as I can tell, there are only one or two special moves that are different
between characters. Those moves are listed in the movelist.
The common moves are listed below:
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
High Kick k or K Basic kick
High Punch p or P Basic punch
Low Kick D+K or D+k This is the surefire way to win
and unlock all characters. The
only character that this does
not work well against is Hornet.
Low Punch D+p or D+p This is not as effective as the
kick.
Jump Kick U+K or U+k Basic jump kick
Sounding Fury U+P+K This is annoying to pull off,
but it will stun your opponent
for a couple of hits.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dodge D+E Simple evasion
Guard G Simple block
--[ Akira ]----------------------------------------------------------[ Akira ]--
Full Name: Akira Yuki
Sex : Male
Birthday : September 23
Hobby : Kung-Fu
Nationality : Japanese
Fighting Style : Hakkyoku-Ken
Has Armor: No
Game: Virtua Fighter
The legendary master of Hakkyoku-ken, Akira Yuki returns to the VF competition
in search of polishing his martial arts skills so that he may, when the time
comes, pass the knowledge he has learned to his students. Akira remains one of
the most well-balanced fighters in the group. Never a punch or kick wasted.
Akira uses patience to overcome his adversaries.
Strategies when using Akira:
Concentrate on low kicks and the fast triple punch to take out your enemies.
It's the easiest way since none of the computer AI characters defend against
low attacks.
Strategies when fighting Akira:
Concentrate on low attacks. He will not defend himself, but will often
attack you with a single jump kick (knocking you down, even from a crouch)
and then following up with a fast triple punch. Be ready to guard when you
see him in the air. Then take him out with a low kick.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Gekihousul U+p,p Make sure that they are nowhere
near you when you try to execute
this move or they will take you
out with a simple high kick.
Fast Triple Punch D+p,p,p This will do a small amount of
damage, but it is an extremely
fast attack.
--[ Pai ]--------------------------------------------------------------[ Pai ]--
Full Name: Pai
Sex : Female
Birthday : May 17
Hobby : Dancing
Occupation : Action Film Star
Nationality : Chinese (Hong Kong)
Fighting Style : Ensei-Ken
has Armor: No
Game: Virtua Fighter
Even though Pai is Lau’s daughter, there is little love between the two -
while Lau pursued his obsessive search for perfection, Pai’s mother toiled so
hard to support the family that she died of exhaustion. Pai never forgave Lau
for her mother’s death, and swore she would someday beat Lau at his own game.
Though she didn’t have what it took to defeat him in the last tournament, this
time she’s armed with a few new techniques that might just knock Lau out of
the champion’s position. And with Lau out of the way, the others should fall
like dominoes.
Strategies when using Pai:
Keep your distance and use the dash attack to take down the opponents life.
If they get close, just concentrate on low kicks to distance yourself from
them. Once they hit the floor, back up and prepare your dash attack.
Strategies when fighting Pai:
Concentrate on low kicks. Her kicks are nearly ineffectual, but she has a
pretty good reach with her punches. Just make sure to guard when you see her
powering up for her attack. The guard will take the brunt of most of the
damage, though you can't block it completely.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
f, F+K Dash attack Only perform this move when you
are quite a distance from your
opponent. Then, follow up with
some low kicks to take them down
easily. This is an unblockable
attack.
--[ Lion ]------------------------------------------------------------[ Lion ]--
Full Name: Lion
Sex : Male
Birthday : December 24
Occupation : High School Student
Hobby : Collecting Knives
Nationality : French
Fighting Style : Toru-ken/Seven Stars Mantis Fist
Has Armor: No
Game: Virtua Fighter
He is born into the Rafale family, one of the most wealthy families in France.
They are involved in the aircraft industry. Lion has been practicing Toruken
under an instructor as part of management education since he was five. Lion
Rafale continues trying to prove to his father that he is worthy of the Rafale
last name. Undaunted, Lion continues to bewilder his opponents with his
strange, but effective Tourou-ken art of fighting. Lion works well played as
an offensive fighter, utilizing blistering speed to his advantage.
Strategies when using Lion:
Concentrate on his triple punch and low kicks to take care of your
opponents. Don't worry much about using the quick jab since its range will
usually assure that you'll get kicked in the head. Keeping low will assure
you the win.
Strategies when fighting Lion:
For some reason the AI likes to use his slow kicks on all difficulties. I
have no idea why it has such bad AI, but I attribute it to lax programmers.
All you have to do is keep low and punch him in the nads. He'll go down
quick. And easy. Every now and again, the AI will take control of its senses
and try and perform a quick jab on you. Kick them in the head since his
reach won't make it (unless you're using Pai's kick).
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Quick Jab B+p, p Make sure that they are close or
this move will miss.
Triple Punch p, p, p Nice and quick does the trick.
--[ Jacky ]----------------------------------------------------------[ Jacky ]--
Full Name: Jacky
Sex : Male
Birthday : August 28
Hobby : Training
Occupation : Indy Car Racer
Nationality : American
Fighting Style : Jeet Kune Do
Has Armor: No
Game: Virtua Fighter
One fateful day, hotshot race driver and Jeet Kune Do master Jacky Bryant was
separated from his sister, Sarah, when she was kidnapped by an underground
syndicate. After years of searching, he learned that Sarah was being trained
for combat and was considered tops in the art of Jeet Kune Do. When the first
World Fighting Tournament was announced, Jacky took the challenge in the hopes
of finding and rescuing Sarah from the syndicate. But once a winner was
declared, Sarah vanished. Jacky spent the next year training for the ensuing
bout he knew would come.
Strategies when using Jacky:
Just use his signature kicks and punches to take out the opponents quickly
and easily.
Strategies when fighting Jacky:
Concentrate on low attacks since the AI likes to make use of his high
punches and kicks. When combating a human opponent, continue to concentrate
on low attacks since his attacks are mostly upper body ones.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Quad Fury p, p, p, p This does some good damage as
long as you can make it hit.
Triple Kick k, k, k Another big pull, as long as
they don't duck or guard.
--[ Bahn ]------------------------------------------------------------[ Bahn ]--
Full Name: Banh
Sex: Male
Birthday: August 25
Hometown: Nishino Machi
Occupation: High School Student
Hobby: Karate
Likes: Ramen
Dislikes: Western Food
Has Armor: Yes
Game: Fighting Vipers
Bahn, the “One Blow” Fighting Boss, joins the Vipers as an ex-gang member in
search of the father who abandoned he and his mother...and he is not
necessarily seeking a happy reunion. Beware of his powerful standing punches
including “Super Straight” and “Hiji Teppou.”
Strategies when using Banh:
Watch your armor and guard against all upper body attacks. Concentrate on
your lower punches. I'd recommend not using his Hiji Teppou attack since it
is extremely easy to kick out of the air.
Strategies when fighting Banh:
Watch for his Hiji wind-up and kick him out of the air. Otherwise, just keep
to your low attacks (like on all opponents except for Hornet).
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Super Straight D+p This move can be done repeatedly.
Just make sure that you are close
to the enemy. You will inch
backwards as you perform this move,
so make sure that they are moving
toward you.
Hiji Teppou U+p,p This will stomp the life out of
your opponent, but it is an
attack for close-range.
--[ Candy ]----------------------------------------------------------[ Candy ]--
Full Name: Candy
Sex: Female
Birthday: September 3
Hometown: Armstone City
Occupation: Fashion School Student
Hobby: Making Clothing
Likes: Strawberry Cheesecake Ice Cream
Dislikes: Carrots
Has Armor: Yes
Game: Fighting Vipers
Candy, the “Cat Punch” Costume Play Girl, displays a “Dr. Jekyl-Mr. Hyde”
characteristic when suited up and not-suited up in her handmade rubber dress.
Her combination of kicks are especially harmful and especially effective when
directed at the lower section.
Strategies when using Candy:
As far as I can tell, her charge attacks (which I've never gotten to
complete since they take so long to perform) are only available in her
rubber dress. That's okay, they just give them time to whollop your ass.
Just keep your cat punch and kicks to take them out.
Strategies when fighting Candy:
Stay close and kick the hell out them. I've never seen her get her move off,
even when I've sat back and let her try to complete it.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Cat Punch D+p This is a quick punch that can
be used repeatedly.
Cat Kick D+k This is a quick kick that can
be used repeatedly.
--[ Sanman ]--------------------------------------------------------[ Sanman ]--
Full Name: Sanman
Sex: Male
Birthday: March 3
Hometown: Armstone City
Hobby: Custom Bikes
Likes: Sweets
Dislikes: Garlic
Has Armor: Yes
Game: Fighting Vipers
Nobody knows much about him, and he isn’t saying. The only things for sure is
that he rolled up to the tournament on a big custom hog, and he has a strange
fascination with the number 3. Sanman lets his fists do the rest of the
talking for him.
Strategies when using Sanman:
Just punch and kick. There's no reason to use the strong punch. It's not
worth much of anything.
Strategies when fighting Sanman:
Use low attacks. He never blocks and will be knocked out of his armor soon
enough.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Strong punch f,B+P This will smack them hard.
--[ Mahler ]--------------------------------------------------------[ Mahlet ]--
Full Name: Mahler
Sex: Male
Birthday: January 20
Hometown: Armstone City
Hobby: Windsurfing
Likes: Mexican Food
Dislikes: Seafood
Has Armor: Yes
Game: Fighting Vipers
Mahler seems to have a score to settle with the mayor of Armstone, but nobody
knows why he has entered the Vipers tournament. He hasn’t even bothered to
officially register his name.
Strategies when using Mahler:
Again, another useless attacker. Just keep using low attacks. For some
reason, he and Sanman are my least favorite characters to play. There's
really no advantage other than strength.
Strategies when fighting Mahler:
Low attacks again. He'll never block. At all.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Thrust Punch f, F+P This is just a long punch that
does okay damage.
--[ Kids Sarah ]------------------------------------------------[ Kids Sarah ]--
Full Name: Sarah Bryant
Sex: Female
Birthday: July 4, 1973
Nationality: America
Hobby: Skydiving
Technique: Sekken Do
Speciality: Elbow and Knee strike, Barrage Attacks
Has Armor: No
Game: Virtua Fighter Kids
This is simply Sarah from Virtua Fighter 3, only as a child. Her super-
deformed head adds to the fun of giving a large target to smack around.
Strategies when using Kid Sarah:
She is fun to use, but her big head makes quite the target for others to
hit, even when she's crouched. Unlike most characters, I like to rely on her
special attack and her upper punches and kicks.
Strategies when fighting Kid Sarah:
Kick her in the head. It's her weakness. And what a big weakness it is...
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Jumping Twist Kick UL+k This is good for a distanced
attack. Otherwise, it's useless.
--[ Janet ]----------------------------------------------------------[ Janet ]--
Full Name: Janet
Sex: Female
Birthday: N/A
Hometown: N/A
Hobby: N/A
Likes: Shooting thugs
Dislikes: Being shot
Game: Virtua Cop 2
Janet is better known for being a cop in Virtua Cop 2. She takes care of the
slime on the streets and save innocent bystanders.
Strategies when using Janet:
Just use the gun blast when they're not close to you. It will hit them even
if they're crouched. If they get close, use low kicks to get them away from
you. Then shoot their asses.
Strategies when fighting Janet:
Stay close to them and just keep attacking them. If you let distance get
between you and her, then she'll blow you away. Stay on the inside and take
her out.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Gun Blast b,F+P+K Nice, easy, and cheap attack.
--[ Hornet ]--------------------------------------------------------[ Hornet ]--
Full Name: Hornet
Sex: N/A
Birthday: N/A
Hometown: Daytona Beach
Hobby: Racing
Likes: Going fast
Dislikes: Gravel
Game: Daytona USA
Hornet is the central car that you drive in Daytona USA. If you haven't played
the game, find an arcade and hit the streets. It's a lot of fun.
Strategies when using Hornet:
Use the Run 'em Down attack. It's the best low attack in the game, and the
only attack that Hornet has worth anything.
Strategies when fighting Hornet:
Use jump attacks only. If you try and use low attacks, it will run you down.
Keep jumping and you'll be fine.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Run 'em Down f,F+P
--[ Siba ]------------------------------------------------------------[ Siba ]--
Full Name: Siba
Sex: M
Birthday: N/A
Hometown: N/A
Hobby: N/A
Likes: N/A
Dislikes: N/A
Game: Virtua Fighter 1 (removed during testing)
Siba was once in Virtua Fighter 1. For some reason, he was removed. That's
pretty much the end of the story for him, except that they keep bringing him
back in these megamixes...
Strategies when using Siba:
Siba sucks, what can I say? Like most characters in this game, use low
attacks. The sword swipe isn't worth anything.
Strategies when fighting Siba:
Stay close and low. If you let him get some distance, he'll swipe you. You
can't block it, but guarding will lessen the damage.
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
| Move Name | Button Combination | Notes |
+--------------------+--------------------+--------------------------------+
Sword Swipe B+P A strong attack for taking care
of close enemies.
