Unused Graphics

In the Japanese version, a large '91 is stored with the title screen graphics, suggesting it was going to be part of the game's title. It is styled similarly to the one used in the previous game, Moe-Pro! '90: Kandou Hen.

Unused Music

All of the music from Bases Loaded 3 is still in the game. Use the patch code 829B:??:24 to hear the unused music on the title screen, with ?? replaced with a hex number between 1C and 22.

Sound Test

In the Japanese version, at the main title screen menu (do not enter any options), hold A + B on Controller 2 and press Start on Controller 1 to trigger a sound test. Here, use Controller 1 to listen to music and Controller 2 to listen to sounds. This cheat is provided by the game in one of the messages at the ending credits, mentioned below.

Due to code redesign in the US version, this cheat doesn't work anymore at the main title screen menu, it will be treated as entering the OPTIONS mode no matter what option was selected before. Instead, at the title screen, you must select the PLAY option and press Start or A. Once the next menu opens, hold A + B on Controller 2 and press Start or A on Controller 1.

This code is unlockable and given to you in the ending credits screens by 'TAKE-1" programmer. See section below.

  I like deep-sea fish. Jun

  Despite the fact I'm not doing much, I'm thankful that a company like this is still publishing the game.
  Please enjoy the Super Famicom version of the game too!
