SolarStriker

SolarStriker is Nintendo's first vertical shooter game, and the only one they made until Metal Torrent for DSiWare.

Stage 0


Address reads the current stage, with values - being Stages 1-6, and values  and  being used for the cutscenes of beating the final boss and returning to the player's mothership Mother Atena respectively, at the end of the game. Although is kept at  on the title screen, stage 0 cannot normally be 'played' without cheating.

Stage 0 itself is a vertical scrolling stage that shows a large ship that is presumably Mother Atena. When the game reaches the top of the screen, it loops to the bottom again. Stage 0 can be accessed with GameShark code or Game Genie code.
