It's hard, so exept for the ASCII art scattered around, I need help. So for any suggestion or codes, etc. E-mail them to me at flizard64@yahoo.com. Anyone like my ASCII art of Goemon? If so, then you have _really_ bad taste in art!!! But still, it is kinda good for a face... Well, this game isn't so popular. But it is the most AWESOME game on 64, exception for Zelda. Why isn't it popular? (1) It has Japanese style characters, sometimes distracting buyers/renters (2) Goemon looks very... disturbing, in some peoples mind. (3) It is a pretty short game. But what the heck! Well, here is my review on it. ~Style 5.0- Cute characters. Yech. ~Gameplay 7.0- Awesome Impact battles, but only a 1 player game ~Graphics/Sound 9.5- Best music in any N64 game yet. Awesome enemies and characters, got to see it to believe it. ~Overall ???- Matters with your style, and if you have a friend who wants to play, because this game can break up a friendship fast like that. ;D If you like games like this, buy it!!! But if you are low on cash, rent the game for at least a week. 7 days. It is better if you buy, of course, because it is fun (and challenging) to try to get all the cat dolls. You will get and awesome secret if you do. I have a sort of complete walkthrough on this game, but it isn't the best ever. I do have some cool information about the characters, and other stuff that you can't find anywhere but here. -0---------------\ Table of Contents=| -0---------------/ 1. Introduction 2.

But this section is a super-duper more detailed section of the last. Now, the part you have waited a whole three sections for, The Walkthrough!! I will include some Cat Doll locations here, therefore I need no Cat Doll Section! YEAH!!! ~Beginning~ You start out in Goemon's house, exit through the door up top. Yes that is a door! Here are some controls to get used to while wandering around: A- Jump B- Weapon or Item C Down- Change characters C Left- Change weapons C Right- Town Map C Up- Magic Power (can't use yet) Start- Status screen, map Start, Z- map (can't use yet) Now go west, outside of the town and you will be at a field. Yes, the first enemy! These are "Cupcake Girls 1" and "Dragons." This is Kai Highway. Go inside the house and get a map from the traveling merchant. Go outside and over the bridge. Look for a Silver Fortune cat doll. Go up and into the door. This is Mt. Fuji. Climb up the ladder and go right for another Silver Fortune cat doll. Go up for awhile and through the curtains. There are some undefeatable baddies named "Slinkers." Avoid them and proceed, cautiously crossing the moving bridge. Go outside and back up, proceeding until you find a door. Go inside it and go into the house. Talk to Mokubei and receive the Chain Pipe. Fall (yes fall, you don't get hurt, no matter what height) back down the mountain. ~Oedo Castle~ Go back to Odeo Town and exit north. There will be star blocks on the other side. Hit them with your newly attained Chain Pipe and you will fly to the other side. On the left there is a Silver Fortune cat doll. On the right, go into the door and you will be in Oedo Castle! Go thru the first room and go left. Chain Pipe across until you get the Silver Key. Chain Pipe back and open the silver key door. Get Mr. Elle Fant and a Silver Fortune cat doll. Now go back and head into the other door in the hallway you just came in. Kill everything to get the key and head back into the room with Mr. Elle Fant. Open the key door, kill three flying floors, get the key, and exit. The door ahead is locked, so go right and kill the enemies. Get the _Gold key_ and open the locked door across the star block. Jump on the block and be risen up. Jump over the ball guys and then hop on a chained block and jump on the other one to get the key. Go into the unlocked door to get a Silver Fortune cat doll. If you haven't found out, if you get four of these, you get and extra heart. Go and jump over the spike balls and open the door. Chain pipe your way over and go through the door on the left. Grab the key, go back to the spiked ball room, and open the locked door. Get Mr. Arrow on the way. Go ahead, past the ball dudes, and the ninjas. Go out, and there will be chain blocks, so use them to get across into the door. Take the elevator up and talk to Baron. He is the "Blue Weirdo," or as I call him, "Gay Guy #1" After a while, he will leave, so go through the doors in the wall. Alot huh? On the way there, grab the health and the Silver Fortune cat doll. You will be in a room with Congo. 1st Boss- The King Robot: Congo See the "Boss" Section for details The lord will give you a super pass. Now go back to... ~Oedo Town~ Go where the two guards were blocking you before and talke to one. They will let you through. In Musashi, just go into the door on the left. Go through the tunnel and exit. Run up the hill and after a while you will see a cinema. You will see a house blow up, Baron appear, you talking to Baron about the house (thinking that HE blew it up, so also being wrong...), and then be "transported" into Impact's mouth. 2nd Boss- Wartime Kabuki Robot: Kashiwagi See the "Impact" Section for details ~Zazen Town~ After you beat Kashiwagi, go ahead until you get to Zazen Town. You will meet Yae there and she will join you. Switch to her with C-Down and you will find she has a pretty good weapon and she runs alot smoother. But just wait until you get Sasuke... You are in Zazen Town, the biggest, most main city that is right in the middle of Japan. Find a guy named Benkei blocking the bridge. Talk to him and jump into the river. heading left. Find a girl named Ushiwagi, and catch her fish. She will then give you the Achilles' Heel log, so go back and fight Benkei. As soon as he jumps, throw it, so he lands on it when he comes back down. After two hits, he will block the log, so you must make him land directly on it. When you win, you will be able to pass, and you will also be given Sasuke, the mechanical robot. Don't be exited, he doesn't have batteries just yet. Go into the door and then down the hill in the next area, and go across the bridge to the right. Go ahead and you will be at Turtle Rock. Here is the order in which to push it: - South, to receive a Silver Fortune cat doll - North, to go into the temple that was locked. Climb up to get a surprise package, and look for two Silver Fortune cat dolls in there. - West, for some coins - East, to be transported to a new area. Just walk into the red gates, swim over onto the "Husband and Wife" rock, and climb to get a Silver Fortune cat doll and a teleporter back. Jump off the island and swim to land. Check out the coffee shop, and go behind it for a surprise package. Go up the cliff and into the house. Talk to the lady and ask to help with the dragon business. She will transport you onto the dragon's back, so run up it until you reach a weird enemy. This is the Control Machine. 3rd Boss- The Controller Machine See "Boss" section for details ~Follypoke Village~ You will talk to a girl/dragon named Koryuta and Yae receives the Warp Flute. Any time you "check in" at a Coffee Shop, you can warp there with the flute. Cool! Climb up the mountain, checking in the coffee shop on the way. When you get up, switch to Goemon and fire 5 ryo at the box in the center of the altar. The god of cash will give you the Medal of Flames. Switch to your ryo and hold B to use them. Now go all the way back down the mountain and into the door. Follow the path up into another door, leading to a vine bridge. The lighter colored boards will fall, but if you fall at the third set of loose boards you will get a Silver Fortune doll. When you cross the bridge, you'll be in Iyo, so _check into the Coffee Shop_ and then look at the Dogo Hot Springs entrance. You can't go into it right now, but warp to Zazen Town using Yae's flute. After riding the dragon, go check out Kashiwagi, the girl who loves fish. Whoa! She is tiny! Talk to her, and then go. Follow her around the corner down to the small waterfall. Go up the ladder and through the door. Go into the second door on your right and you will find the fisher standing in front of a door. Switch to Ebisumaru and talk to her. Mini-Game #1- The Cupboard =You have to get eight food cakes that fall from the sky, but= =watch out! Every 10-15 seconds or so, a giant will peek in. = =If you don't hide behind an obstacle, bombs will drop from = =the sky! Also, some cupcake girls will fall. This is easy! = ============================================================== After you beat this game, you will receive the Mini-Ebismu magic power. Now warp back to Iyo, and go to the Hot Spring's entrance. Use Ebisamaru's power (C-Up) and walk under the small hole on the far side of the place. Go under the red gate with Mini-Ebismu and climb the ladder. Use the chain pipe to get across. There is a sign before the door which allows you to save. ~Ghost Toys Castle~ The two torches need to be lit with the Medal of Flames. When so is done, the door will open. The next room has a large machine, ignore it now, and go ahead into the door. Go down the elevator and go through the many rooms. In most of them you just jump across platforms (actually, they are some kind of Japanese chess pieces!) but in one room with the evil McDonalds workers, there is a flower bulb. Carry it up the platform for some ryo and health! Now you are in a room with a switch, well switch it (!), and climb up the platforms, collecting the key, and jump over. Play the crane game until you get the camera. It is hard, just keep on trying. When you get it, use your key on the silver key door in the next room. Use the Wind-Up Camera to make all the ghosts appear. Destroy them, grab Mr. Arrow, and go into the door. Go across into the first door to your left. Kill all the ghosts after making them appear and get the key. Go back and go into the key door. Ride the elevator up and go into the door. Go up the ramp, across the tops, and back into the elevator arrival room to open the locked door. Go into the unlocked exit and you'll be back into the top room, so go into the next room. Kill everything to get a key, and go back. Open that door and go into the door in the ahead. Here get some health and ryo, then go back out and cross the ropes. In this next room, kill the ghosts for the Gold Key and surprise package. Go back to where the Gold Key door is, and use the key! Go to the first door on your left into a pool table room. You must hit the ball with the arrow over it until all of them are gone. You don't have to aim, if you hit them they go in a hole automatically. Sink all the balls to get the Silver Key, and exit. Get the Diamond Key here and go back to the room before the pool table. Open the Diamond door and you will be on a platform with the Evil McDonald Worker! 4th Boss- The Surrender Robot: Dharumanyo See "Boss" section for information ~Chugoku Region~ After you beat Dharumanyo, warp to Zazen Town and go across the bridge into the Chugoku. Ignore the doors and cracked walls for now, and go across the bridges into Izumo. Head down the path to your right and through the door, into a large desert. Find a pond and in the center of it is a battery. Now exit and climb up the mountain to a big tree. Climb up it, use the Wind-Up camera, and retrieve the battery. Now you can be Sasuke, the mechanical robot! ~\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\You have Sasuke!/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\~ ~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~AMAZING!~~~~~~~!!!!!!!!!!~~~~~~~~~~ {{{[[~~~~~`````Oops, got a bit carried away``````~~~~~~]]}}} Ok, stop the decals... Go back down the hill and check in at the coffee shop so you can warp back here. Take the door to Hagi Village, and head into the northwest corner. Go into the door, ignore the one on the left, and head down the path to Shuhodo cave entrance. Shuhodo cave is pretty simple, walk through it, blow up the door with one of Sasuke's firecrackers, and on the other side is Festival Temple Castle! ~Festival Temple Castle~ Head left at the start and inside the fenced in section. Walk around and into the door, then jump over the gaps avoiding the rolling thingies. Go into the next door, collect Mr. Elle Fant, head back around, and fall down into the next door. Go into the unlocked door and climb up the ladder for a Silver Fortune doll, then jump down into the other door.

Circle around to avoid them. Next he will shoot 4 lasers. Watch out and jump over these, and after he stops, hit him. You can hit him around 8 times each time he pauses, so he isn't that hard. 2. Impact Boss: Kashiwagi 3. Control Machine- When you get to him, back off while he is spinning. When he stops, smack him once. Not hard, but using the Chain Pipe is recommended. 6 smacks and he's out. 4. Dharumanyo: The Surrender Robot- Make sure you take a picture with the Wind-Up camera, to show his weak point and make him vulnerable. Watch out for his attacks: (1) He slashes you with his claws (2) He shoots three fireballs at you, just run nonstop here (3) His most useless attack is slamming his fist into the ground, trying to impale you. When he stops smack him, and this boss should be done in no time. 5. Tsurami The Ghost Robot- To beat him, simply hit the RED plates back at him. He has three plate-throwing modes: (1)Throws blue plates, then two reds. (2)Same thing, but this time faster (3)Now he is MAD.

Uggghhhh... dum, de dum, de dum, de dum de dum. :D Who actually understands the story line? It is so weird... You can tell if your game is an older version or a newer version: First Versions: The Old Wise Man is obsessed with girls New Version: The Old Wise Man is obsessed with cars When I first beat the game, I thought it was short. So when they said they forgot about Kyushu, I thought there was more, so I was pretty happy. Of course, it was too good to be true, and Kyushu came falling down. Kyushu is one of the smallest places in the game, right? Well, actually it is the second biggest is land in Japan!! The bosses are like, cutesy! I mean, Mystery Women and Mystery Man have dorky names like Tiger Lily and Sping Breeze Dancin'!!??? Some Haikus Goemon and his friends Will their kick enemies' butt If they use this guide Instant Stage Beam, now! Given to them by the wise man His mind is with cars Dancin' and Lily Are two freaky enemies Why not someone cool? After it's over I write this very huge guide You'd better use it -0---------------\ Secrets===========| -0---------------/ Boss Battle Mode- If you collect all 45 Silver Fortune dolls, you can get a secret mote in options, called boss battle mode. Here you can battle each Impact boss succesively. If you beat them, you will get some awesome art. Rumble Pak- In the Impact stages, the Rumble Pak works! It adds a nice little touch and can't be used anywhere else in the game. Infinite Cash- If you enter a place (like Oedo Castle's first room) get all the coins, then re-enter, the pots will be back. If you do this in Oedo Castle first room, you get 120 ryo each time!!! New Harido- While using Goemon's magic power, get killed by an enemy and you will have golden hair when you come back! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I know there is more, but I am just lazy. Lazy, lazy lazy. Send them to me and I will post most of them up! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -0---------------\ Special Thanks====| -0---------------/ Nintendo- They made the system Konami- For making awesome games like this one Marshmallow (m_mallow@hotmail.com)- He let me use his store list Ummmmm....- ummmmm... -0---------------\ News/End==========| -0---------------/ Other stuff: My web page is still being created...
