Unused Character

There is leftover data for a dummy character that is partially coded and can be played, although graphics for it do not exist. To play as it, use Game Genie code D9D4-FE76 on the character select screen to move the cursor to a sixth slot (be sure to turn off the cheat after you selected the dummy character, or the match afterwards can glitch).

Even though it displays Tabo's passwords in single player, it has Keroppi's stats and sprites with a glitched palette, although it will eventually change to corrupted sprites. Its own icons are also glitched sprites due to unusual sprite pointers. If this dummy character wins a match, the game crashes, as the character has no internal name for the win message.

SimAnt Text

For whatever reason, a large portion of text from the US release of the SNES SimAnt (another Tomcat game) is present in the ROM from 0xB6E8-0xBFFF.
