A set of special passwords that were only usable in the Japanese version, stored at

In the US version, these passwords are all that remain of what the Japanese version used, which included three more sets: The game's normal passwords, and the ones that give infinite energy for each of the two characters. Any of these above passwords, if used in the Japanese version, will give Mizuki 'SD' style graphics and chage the regular shots into hearts. Attempting to use these passwords in the US version by manipulating the values via patch codes will simply return invalid.

Whereas each column starts the player on a different stage, the first row is for normal play, but the others will give infinite energy and weapon power, as well as affect who the starting character is and start Masato off with the flame thrower.
