Battle mode tip
Sent in by Norfleet
Here is a battle mode tip. If you knock somebody unconscious near the edge
of the level, run over to them and press A to pick them up and throw them
out of the battle arena. This may be kind of cheap but it works well.
Easy way to get a heart
Sent in by Norfleet
After you beat the first level in the ice world, their is a way to get a
heart easily. Simply drop off of the ledge at the beginning of the stage
and there should be a rabbit hopping around nearby. Kill the rabbit with a
bomb and collect the heart, since you have already beaten the stage all
you have to do is press start to pause the game and then move the curser
to exit stage. you will still have the heart in reserve. This is helpful when
you are about to fight a boss.
Hidden skull
Sent in by Masked Bomber
If you get the flame disease from a skull in the battle mode, don't waste
time trying to chase people (they'll probably kill you anyway.) Instead,
go after any rocks or bricks that are still on the screen and you might
find another skull to get rid of the flames disease.
Is there any easy way to get Iron Goggles?
Sent in by Stefan
If you have the code to get the code to get to the special code screen,
type in Ironshard, and a flash should go across the screen and make a
sound! Now go to the 1st level and go to all the corners in the level and
throw 3 bombs at every corner until you find the right corner that opens
up. now go through. This is a bonus level. You are in an Egyptian palace.
The water will rise and you must keep jumping on the rocks that are
provided in the level. If you beat the room you will get to a room with
3 chests. Pick the middle chest and you will obtain the Iron Goggles.
In White Glacier, Stage 3, how do you get up the frozen slope?
Sent in by Jackson Reid
At the beginning of the level, go right. You will see an elevator. Go in. It
will take you to a place where you view the bottom of the icy floor.
Keep going right and don't go any other direction. You will end up at a
door. Go through, and you will be at the top of the slope.
Final Battle tip
Sent in by Kirk Davis
There is a VERY easy way to beat the first part of "FINAL BATTLE!"
After Sirius fires his laser and comes to land, start laying down
bombs in a line. (Sirius will always land parallel to the Cube) As
Sirius starts to bounce, he'll fall off the platform and be defeated.
It may take a couple tries. Also, make sure you have about 5 bombs.
Can't move your legs and you can only kick bombs and plant bombs
Sent in by Eric
Go to black Level 1 and make sure you have remote bombs and a heart.
Then go to any platform and lay a bomb there then wait for a car to
come near and then blow your self up you should go shining and fall off the
platform and be blinking then the car will run over you while your blinking
still and you wont get hurt then go get your heart and you will notice you
are not moving your legs and you can only kick bombs and plant bombs.
Lots of red and blue gems
Sent in by Jordan Montgomery
If you're low on continues, and need desperate help for gems, you're in luck.
Go to the Blue Resort level, then play stage 1, switches and bridges. Play
through until you come to a large brick building with a ton of windows. Search
for an open window and toss a pumped bomb inside the window, stand back,
and after it blows up, enemies jump out. They die right after they land. Both
blue and red gems come flying out of the ruined building. Sometime later in
the same stage, you'll come to another building like the first. Repeat the process
and you can get more red and blue gems.
Custom suits for other players
Sent in by Andrew Rednour
The best way to get custom suits for other players in a multiplayer game is
to pop in another player's pak, access a record that's full of parts, save a suit
on that pak power off, power on with all paks inserted in their respectable
controllers and play away.
Beating Altair
Sent in by Tony Myers
The easiest way to beat Altair is to stun him with a bomb, then pick him
up and throw him off the platform. If you are in the first part of the battle,
be sure to watch out for Vega's beam, because he will sometimes attack
when you aren't looking.
Rotate Bomberman
Sent in by Brian Stilwell
When choosing what to have your Bomberman
look like (where it says
"Name, Head, Body, etc.) press the right flipper on your controller (the
one above the camera buttons) or the "Z" trigger and hold it down. The
Bomberman should now rotate, so you can see him from different angles,
not really a trick, but a feature not listed in the manual none the less.
Chain Reaction in Battle mode
Sent in by Brian Stilwell
You bought Bomberman 64 for one reason, right? Battle mode!! If you
stink at battle mode and want to win, here is an easy way to win rounds.
Make sure that you can throw at least 3 bombs, then aim yourself so that
your opponent is stuck near a wall. Drop then kick your as many bombs as
fast as you can, then run away. What will happen is that your enemy will
get dizzy from the first bomb that hit them, and they won't be able to
get up because you hit them so many times! If they do happen to get away,
they will have to walk past all the bombs that you kicked. Another technique
my friend and I like to call 'Chain Reaction' can be hard to do. What you do
is throw a bomb into an explosion that is already happening. This will
make the explosion bigger, eliminating any other Bomberman
who are
foolish enough to be standing that close!
Victory cries
Sent in by wwjepson@linkport.com
If you have a controller pak, you can play with a special suit in the
battle mode. There are victory cries for each complete suit.
Here are all the victory cries.
Normal suit He does not say anything
Knight suit Yes!
Dragon suit I'm the best!
Iron suit All right!
Cat suit Meow-meow!
Girl suit Haahhh!
Duck suit Quack-quack-quack!
Chicken suit Quack-quack-quack!
Samuria suit I'm the best!
Clown suit Piece of cake!
Gold suit Yes!
Faster recovery
Sent in by Code Hunter
When Bomberman is dizzy, rotate the Analog-stick for a faster recovery.
Level changes
Sent in by Code Hunter
When you get 100 gold cards and watch the "ending" bit with Sirius taking the
Omni Cube, you can go back to the other levels, and there will be some small
changes everywhere that Sirius usually is. For starters, go to any level where
Sirius stands around to give you advice. Talk to him, and he says something
different, like "It is no use opposing me now, just lay down and die" or
something. Also, a big change is that in all the Stage 4's, (except for Black
Fortress, where it is Stage 2) instead of Sirius coming in to drop off the
remote bombs, there will be a little green crystal, where you can only just
see a Remote item, and you have to break it open to get Remote Bombs. And one
more really small thing: Sirius's eyes are now green.
Bomb trick
Sent in by Code Hunter
In Red 1 go to the remote bomb area. Stop right at the end of the metal
walkway and change camera angles until your facing the wall. Pick up a bomb
and throw it into the wall and the bomb should go inside it and disappear.
Note: This trick works once per continue
Note 2: Must be first life!!!
This trick also works with the pillars in Red 1 - Go up the long metal ledge
to the right of the remote bombs area in Red 1 to the large area with the 2
fire blowing rocks. Pick up a bomb and throw it off the edge to the right
towards the area of land below. The bomb will go straight through the land and
disappear. This also works with the red grate below.
Air tricks
Sent in by Code Hunter
In some levels you can walk off the area and into the air.
Example: In Red Level 1 go down to the area in the beginning with the metal
door that can only be opened with a bomb. walk to the door and then change the
camera angle so you are facing the lava then walk forward onto the air! its a
little space so don't fall off! You can test it by kicking a bomb onto the
area.
Also in Blue 1 near the edge after you drain the water the first time kick a
bomb of the edge and it will float in the air. Or try to kick it to the left
and it will go through the stairs and land to the water.
Hidden areas in Blizzard Peaks
Sent in by Code Hunter
In "Blizzard Peaks" on White Glacier there are hidden areas (there
might be more that I didn't find). One of them is in an area where
the wind blows. Go to the middle section, then go near the incline.
There is space in the wall which you can go through. When you go
through, the hidden area should be filled with yellow flowers
which contain power-ups and gems. If you are on Hard one of them
contains a Custom part which is the Chicken Head. Another one is
the other area with wind. Now go to the middle section, and then
go opposite of the incline and there should be another space. Go
through and you should find pink flowers. They have power-ups and
gems. At the beginning, go to the area where there is a bunch of
snow at the top. Get rid of the snow by putting a bomb by it. Now
go to the top and fall down to the next highest section with the
tree. Now go to the corner where the 2 walls meet. There should
be a space which you go through. Go through to get 1 power-up.
Blizzard Peaks sign
Sent in by Code Hunter
On "Blizzard Peaks" you know there is a sign sheeted with ice
at the beginning that you can't read. But you can!!! Just lay a bomb
beside it and then when it blows up the ice will be destroyed. The
sign says, "Danger! Danger! Beware of avalanches! Do not use many
bombs." You can guess why (because you will start one if you lay a
bomb beside it).
New Outfits
Sent in by Code Hunter
You'll start with a full Knight outfit you can wear in Battlemode. To get new
Outfits search all the levels for hidden parts to the outfits. You can access
the outfit at the spot where you save your game put Customize.
Sound test
Sent in by Code Hunter
To access a sound test option, beat the game in Adventure mode at normal
difficulty.
Four extra battle levels
Sent in by Code Hunter
You do not need the Hudson Joycard 64 controller to enable the secret battle
levels. The secret battle levels are also in the USA version as well as the JAP
version. Go to the game selection screen (where you choose between adventure
mode, battle mode, etc.). If you have a controller with a pause button press
it, or just press the start button quickly and repeatedly until you hear the
chime. Now go into battle mode and the 4 extra battle levels will be enabled.
Easy way to win battle modes
Sent in by Code Hunter
If you stink at battle mode and want to win, here is an easy way to win
rounds. Make sure that you can throw at least 3 bombs, then aim yourself
so that your opponent is stuck near a wall. Drop then kick your as many
bombs as fast as you can, then run away. What will happen is that your
enemy will get dizzy from the first bomb that hit them, and they won't
be able to get up because you hit them so many times! If they do happen
to get away, they will have to walk past all the bombs that you kicked.
Bigger explosion
Sent in by Code Hunter
Throw a bomb into an explosion that is already happening. This will make
the explosion bigger, eliminating any other bombermen who is foolish
enough to be standing that close!

Platform tip
Sent in by Code Hunter
In an area where you have a platform about a pumped bomb's height higher than
you are and about a pumped bomb's height from you down to the ground/other
platform such as rainbow 3's wall platforms, throw a pumped bomb on the
platform below you with your back to the platform you want to get on top of
and then face the platform above you and get as close to it as possible then
throw a pumped bomb at the platform so that it hits you in the head and you
fall unconscious and on to the bomb below you and bounce up to the bomb you
just threw and up onto the platform you want to get up onto. It works about 9
out of ten times.
Parts
Sent in by Code Hunter
Knight Armor - You already have it when you start
Drill Arm - This battle mode item can be found on Black 1. It is at the very
end of the 5th room on the median. In order to get there you must fall from one
of the platforms, onto the median, and bomb jump your way up 2 more medians.
The remote is helpful. Blow up the box at the end of the room and the drill arm
is yours.
Tennis Shoes - In the blue resort. In level 1 under the bridge that has a box
under it and a blue guy on bridge.
Iron Armor - In the white glacier. In level 1 behind one of the houses take a
pumped up bomb and throw it at the houses. Run over the roof put a bomb by
the tree and get it.
Dragon Head - Green 1 - As shown in the final credit sequence, create a bomb
staircase up to the teleporter in the first section. The teleporter will take
you to another small room which contains this costume piece.
Iron Goggles - Red 1 - There are three metal doors one the first level, all
of which need red bombs to open. This costume piece is located inside the door
which is connected to your starting platform. There is a small ramp right
before it, so you'll have bomb jump to enter.
Chicken Head - White 1 - On the final section of this level, there is a
cottage with a snowman on top, which you need to destroy to reach the switch
activating the ski lift. Don't blow up the house. Destroy the snow man with
little bombs. Then use the small ledge to create a bomb jump to the top of the
house. There will be a small platform to the right of the house with one tree
(the costume piece). After getting the piece, fall off the platform to the left
(towards the mountain).
Samurai Head - N/A - Beat the game with 120 gold cards.
Dragon Mail - Green 3 - On the first section, you'll notice a teleporter across
a bit of water, which you can't reach at first. Get the detonator, and
remove all the blocks in that area. Then put a bomb in the elevator (don't
detonate it yet!). Then put two large bombs, one on top of the other, against
the wall, as close to the edge of the platform as possible. The easiest way to
do this is to face the wall and throw the bombs. Then use the elevator to go
up, and line yourself up with those bombs. Then carefully walk off and push in
the direction of the teleporter. If all goes well, you should bounce off the
bombs and into the teleporter.
Iron Armor - White 1 - Go the way of the avalanche. At the very top
of the second section is a cottage. Blow it up with a big bomb. On the
other side is a tree with the costume piece.
Cat Suit - Blue 3 - After draining the water, it is in one of the pots near
the edge, under a bridge (where it was previously underwater).
Cat Hood - N/A - To get the cat hood go to that hole in the building where
you can get throw a bomb in to get gems. That is the Entrance! Set up some Bombs
that lead from the stairs to this window, you don't need to stack Em. once in
the house just steer towards the pot!!
Dress - Black 3 - The instructions to get this piece are actually in the
credit sequence. On the second section, there is an elevator block which is
seemingly unreachable. Complete the section as normal, and activate the first
elevator. Going up will take you to a suspended platform with three planks.
Walk of the last plank, and you should fall on top of one of the four sections
below. Use a couple small bombs to bomb hop from one section to another, until
you find the other section. This secret section is rather large, but isn't to
difficult. The costume piece is near the gold card, I believe.
Rocking Horse - Red 3 - Getting to this costume piece is fairly easy
compared to some of the others. At the very end of the level, there will be a
platform which you need to make fall by destroying the supporting pillars.
Before you do that, fall through the hole it will eventually plug. This costume
piece should be in a furnace block real close by. Use the tracks to escape the
area.
Shogun Kimono - N/A - Beat the game with 120 cards.
Knight Shoes - N/A - Given to you at the beginning
Dragon Spikes - Green 3 - On the last section of this level (with the big
tower), on the far wall of the structure, facing away from the teleporter which
brought you here, is a secret entrance. It looks like a wall, but you can walk
through it. You can find it by pulling the camera in as close as possible, and
standing next to the wall. Rotate the camera until it is inside the building.
There will be two pots in there, one of which is the Dragon Spikes.
Iron Sneakers - White 3 - Go through the right door once you start. When
sliding down the slide, it is in a tree to the far left (opposite side than the
switch).
Cat Paws - Red 3 - There is only one metal door on this level, and the cat
shoes are behind it. The red bomb is actually in the barrel which is close to
the door, but don't blow up the barrel which you need to walk there by
accident. If you do, just leave the area and come back.
High Tops - Blue 3 - On Cliff, after first dam (get it beforehand)
Bunny Socks - Black 3 - In the second section, there is a [::] switch. On a
wall right next to it are a couple blocks. One of them will have the costume
piece.
High Heels - N/A - Beat the game with 120 gold cards.
Pony Tails and Duck Feet: - You can find these custom parts in Rainbow
Palace in Stage 3. In the main room, in the wall closest to the small
stair case in the ground, there is an opening in the wall. You go through
the wall and use a bunch of bombs to work your way through the platforms
in the sky until you reach a large platform with two blocks that can be
blown up. After they are blown up, the Pony Tails and Duck Feet are yours.
Knight Sword - N/A - Given to you at the beginning
Dragon Gloves - Green 1 - After receiving the Red Bombs, head towards the
second section, and enter the teleporter on the left (which is obscured behind
a wall). You will need the Red Bomb to blow up the blue pillars. After going
through the teleporter, this costume piece will be easy to find in that room.
Iron Nuckles - Blue 1 - This one is easy. It is in the same room as the
switch which opens the exit.
Slash Claws - Red 1 - Knock down the planks to go the alternative way. Near
the exit, you will find yourself right above a single block on a short railroad
track. kick a bomb off your higher ground, but use the R-button to stop it as
soon as it leaves the platform. It should land right on top of the piece. After
the explosion, drop down and get the piece. Use the broken tracks to fall down
to the bottom level.
Chicken Wings - White 3 - Once first starting, head through the white door.
This costume piece will be easy to find, but the strange view might make it
seem harder than it is. The costume piece will be out on a ledge in that
section, and somewhat hard to navigate to.
Fan - N/A - Beat the game with 120 gold cards.
SunGlasses: - The sunglasses are hidden on Black Level 5-3. To get them is
not easy. First you must hit the panel on the floor that has 2 dots on them.
You then go across and hit the panel on the floor that has 4 dots on them.
Proceed back and then hit the panel with 3 dots on it. Now here comes that
hard part. If you are facing straight(right after you get off the elevator) go
and take the path that appears when you hit the panel with 3 dots. Go up the
stairs when you get to them. The best way I found to do this part is this: 1.
Put two big bombs on top of each other against the wall on the other side. 2.
Place another big bomb just a little bit away from the 2 big bombs. 3. Make a
bunch of little bombs leading back to the wall on the other side, but make
them the right distance so that you can bounce from one bomb to another. Go
back up the staircase that you went up before and jump on to the bombs you
just laid out. If you did it right and get a little lucky. You will bounce
across and end up on top of the other side. If you made it, head for the
elevator and continue down the paths until you're by the other elevator. You
will see that there is a floor now connecting the two other floors. A lot of
people must have wondered how to get those there. Go across those floors and
you will find a box. Blow up the box and you'll get it!!
Gold Suit - To get the full Gold suit, including: Gold Visor, Gold Armor,
Gold Gloves and Gold Boots. You have to beat the game on hard difficulty
with 120 gold cards under 3 hours. This is tough so have fun!
Crazy Suit - To get the "Crazy Suit", including: Clown Smile, Karate wear,
boxing gloves, and clogs. You have to beat the game on normal difficulty
with 120 gold cards in under 3 hours.
Duck Float: - This custom part can be found in Stage 1 of Rainbow Palace.
First you must reach the switch using a bunch of bombs. Once you get the
switch, a few platforms will move, letting you reach the exit. Before going to
the exit, reach the last platform in front of it and pump a bomb (remote bombs
are a must). Throw the bomb onto the platform directly to your right. Pump
another bomb and throw it to the platform after the first to your right and
lastly, pump one more bomb and throw it onto the last pumped bomb so that it
bounces off a lands on another platform (the one closest to the custom part).
Then you jump on the first bomb (just fall onto it and let yourself bounce to
a platform. DON'T tilt the joystick while you do it or you'll bounce off a
fall down). You'll bounce to the next bomb and then to a high platform. Fall
from there to your other bomb and you'll land on the platform where there's a
block that contains the Duck Float. I found it useful to get a heart item
first (usually from Blue Resort) before you try this. Drop a bomb in front of
the block and detonate it. Your heart item will protect you from the blast and
the Duck Float is yours (it's probably much easier to fall and die after you
get this than to work your way back).
