The Misadventures of Tron Bonne is the prequel to Mega Man Legends, starring the Bonne family of pirates as the main characters. When Tron Bonne's older brother Teisel is unable to pay back a sizable loan from greedy financier Lex Loath, he and Bon are captured by Glyde to work for Loath. To repay the debt and save her brothers, Tron and her small henchmen, the Servbots, will have to steal from a city, harbor containers, farm animals, and search ruins for treasure.

Unused Graphics

Unused Animations

These are unused animation frames of the device on the Gesellschaft's Deck. The GIF above exhibits how the animation was to suppose to have looked in the game.

Unused Backgrounds

• 

  A dimmer version of Gesellschaft's Storage.

• 

  Unused area from Gesellschaft's Deck. It appears to be a laundry below the Deck.

• 

  A different view from Gesellschaft's Deck at sunset.

• 

  An unused room called "In Front of Shower Room".

• 

  "In Front of Shower Room" with the lights off.

Unused Menus

The large panel is for the unused area "Front of Shower Room", which also has a small panel for the room selection. "Weapon", "Armor", "Tank" and "Bottle" were possibly meant for the Lab.

In front of shower room
Control Room
???	Weapons
Steal	Armor
In front of shower room	Tank
Return to title	Bottle
Food	Information
Menu at a glance	Investments

Except for the "HQ", all unused Japanese icons were untranslated, and the large "Front of the Shower Room" panel is blank. The panels from the PocketStation feature, which was removed outside Japan, were translated.

Unused Sprites

• 

  Alternative hand pointers from the Gesellschaft.

• 

  Unused targets from the Servbots attack training in the Gesellschaft. Tron, Teisel, a Servbot, a roller skate, and a happy golden Servbot.

• 

  Unused Bon Bonne head. Seems to be an alternate bomb shape from the attack training.

• 

  An explosion with the shape of the Bonne's mark. May be related to the Bon Bonne head?

Unused Textures

Unused Servbot faces. They appear to be based on the anime characters Kinnikuman, Kenshiro, and the robot Odate-Buta from Yatterman.

• 

  An unused vehicle with the text "The うなぎ" ("The Eel") written on it.

• 

  The twins Zhig and Zhag have unused palettes and a face with open mouth. Their faces never move on textures, only in dialogue portraits.

• 

  Leftover from Mega Man Legends. The boat from Wily's boat house.

• 

  Leftover from Mega Man Legends. The Reaverbot Horokko.

• 

  Leftover from Mega Man Legends. Bon Bonne's head texture kept the Drache's magnet used to pick him up after his defeat.

Misc

An image from the Mission 6 description, at night.

Early Mission Start and Mission Clear texts?

• 

  A "Thank you for playing!" message. Probably used in a demo version?

• 

  An image that appears to be used in the introduction of the Gold City stage.

• 

  The word "SATO", written in gray text inside one of the black triangles in the lower right, appears in the textures of Rafale (Glyde's mecha) and the harbor boat. It probably refers to Fuminori Sato, one of the game's texture artists.

Unused expressions from the HUD of stages. These faces are supposed to be used when the player takes minor damage from weak attacks that barely make the Gustaff move, such as bullets and small rocks, but the enemies that appear when playing as Teisel and the Servbot don't use these type of attacks. This image of Teisel's face is actually used when he is hit by the bullets from the first boss (which is used only once when he flies after losing half of his energy), but an error makes it appear in the wrong position.

Unused objects from the scene where Servbots steal a house. Two money bags, two food plates, and details from the freezer and basket. The basket detail is supposed to be used when one of the Servbots takes an apple from the basket, as the apple is still present in the basket after it takes it.

Two unused Servbot heads, one with glasses (for Servbots #30 and #37) and another that seems dizzy.

A thinking balloon with food. A similar balloon was shown above Servbots in early versions of the game.

Unused Items

Although the item menu has space for 126 items, the game actually contains 127 items, with the player being able to obtain only 97 of them. The remaining 30 items are unused.

Unused Servbot Skills

There are three unused Servbot skills in the game: 料理 (Cooking), 操舵 (Steering) and 見張り (Lookout). They were probably going to be used for Servbots #21, #11 and #24, respectively.

Regional Differences

PocketStation

Although the PocketStation features were removed outside Japan, the PocketStation menu available in the Gesellschaft's HQ is still present and was translated, suggesting it was initially planned to be available. The GameShark code 800F241E 0002 makes the menu available (note that using its functions may cause loss of saved game data, so avoid using it with Memory Cards and PocketStations).

Items and Servbot #38

As mentioned above, the items Beauty Book and Cannon were removed outside Japan as they are related to the PocketStation feature. Those items can be given to Servbot #38, who says something about them and unlocks a minigame. The items can be obtained with cheats outside Japan, and their descriptions were translated. When giving them to #38, his dialogue happens normally, but the dialogue boxes are blank.

Beauty Book dialogue:

Text	Translation
38号に 「びがんにゅうもん」を 渡した！	Handed over "Beauty Book" to #38!
あーえーいーう・・・ えーおーあーうーい・・・	A-E-I-U... E-O-A-U-I...
これって けっこう かおの うんどうに なリますね一	Moving the face like this is quite fun...
！ これにリズムのようそを 取リ入れれば、じゆう時間の 特訓に使えるかもしれません！	! If I include rhythm elements to this, it may be used as an intensive training on our free time!
「ポケットコブン」用ミニゲーム 「きけ！ そしてうたえ！」 を 手に入れた！	Obtained the "Pocket Kobun" minigame "Listen! And Sing!"!
今なら 新しく ダウンロードできまーす	A new download is available now.

Cannon dialogue:

Text	Translation
38号に 「たいほう」を 渡した！	Handed over "Cannon" to #38!
どう？ 何かに使えそう？	How about it? Can you use it for something?
長さも 太さも ボクたちが入るのに ちょーどの 大きさですねー	Both the length and the thickness are big enough for us to enter...

「ポケットコブン」用ミニゲーム 「コブン大砲」 を 手に入れた！	Obtained the "Pocket Kobun" minigame "Kobun Cannon"!
今なら 新しく ダウンロードできまーす	A new download is available now.

Servbot #40

In Japan, the "Design Magazine" given to Servbot #40 is an "Adult Magazine", and his skill "Design" is "H". Although the magazine's name was changed, the original sprite was kept. After gaining his skill, #40 will be jumping in Tron's bed, his original dialogue suggesting he is a pervert that is sniffing Tron's odor in her bed, while overseas he appears to be just having fun and thinks the Gesellschaft's colors are bland. Another change he had is that he gives the item Beauty Book in the Japanese version, but again, it is related to the PocketStation and was removed overseas.

Servbot #41

In Japan, a special save containing Servbot #41 could be obtained from a promotion of the magazine Dengeki G. There is no other way to obtain this Servbot besides cheats, and no promotion was made outside Japan. GameShark code 8009AF0C 0001 unlocks him in the North American version. #41 can be used normally outside Japan and all his quotes were translated.

Credits

The Japanese ending credits has three additional pictures that were removed in overseas versions. Also, the ending theme "love letter" was replaced with a different track.

Oddities

• 

  A small piece of floor in the sky of the first stage.

• 

  The Servbot truck contains a hidden image inside it that can only be seen by positioning the camera between the cabin and the cargo.
