This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article?

Skill Lists

Among the extra features that this compilation offers is skill lists that can be called up at any time during a game from their menu. Even the normally inaccessible characters in each game (except Gaoh in SS5 and Demon Gaoh in SS6) have complete, but unused, skill lists of their own.

Notes:

• Included with each list is a Codebreaker v9+ code to access the character. The (M) code for use with Samurai Shodown 1-5 is 901260F0 0C046A58.
• Some of the commands are misrepresented; correct commands will be in [brackets].

As stated above, Gaoh does not have his own skill list. Attempting to use him and view it will simply result in Haohmaru's list. If playing as Demon Gaoh in SS6, his list will still be inaccessible from the manual selection that the game uses.

Regional Differences

• Online multiplayer was in the Japanese version only.
