This cactus is UNDER CONSTRUCTION
This article is a work in progress.
...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes.

CoroCoro screenshots show early versions of the Custom Gauge and Chaud's mugshot.

The game promo had the following differences from the final game:

  • An early PET display on the top left of the screen.
  • There is a lamppost in central area of ACDC Town.
  • The third mail received has a different title, having a new "Part" (like the Mega Man X series) instead of a "Program".
  • The cyber world from the school had different backgrounds, the map area having a black background and the battles having a green background, both with texts appearing.
