     I CANNOT verify these hidden commands.

4.   HIDDEN COMMANDS

   - Fan service for Suzuki Mariko fans.

     In the game, when the waitress Rio (Rio Fuxo-en Haimu)
first finds the player and asks about his lover's name
(something like "Koibito no namae ha?"), and the player
literally/verbally says "Mariko", Rio has a special reply or
reaction.
     Note: Rio's seiyuu (voice actress) is Suzuki Mariko
han, who also voiced Amane san in Tenchi Muyou! GXP (Galaxy
Police Transporter) and Honoka jou in Sentimental
Graffiti/Journey. Incidentally, the release date of this
game, 30 January, is also Suzuki Mariko han's birthday.
(*^_^*)

   - Mini games.

     After the player clears the game once, depending on the
number of chips collected, the player can unlock some mini
games. The player can collect up to 16 chips, and each mini
game costs one set of four chips to unlock.
     The four mini games are: Tutorial, Read Japanese, Read
English, and Yamanote Sen game.

6.   HINTS (Q&A)

     Some Operator's Side arbitary hints that I read here
and there in the Web. f(-_-;)

   - Hole in observation restaurant.

     In the observation restaurant, enemies come out of a
hole. As the number of enemies that come out is unlimited, a
player with a lot of heal capsules and free time can get a
lot of launchers.

   - Password to open safe in guest room 2.

     In guest room 2, to open the safe beside the bed, read the dress 
catalogue on the table. The hint is on the memo in
the catalogue.
     Correct password is "2021".

   - To operate lift in tool room.

     To operate the lift in the tool room, follow the
procedure on the memo.

   - Password to enter Jonathan's room.

     In the management staff room, to enter Jonathan
Turner's room, the lock panel needs a password. Hint is
food.
     When the player tells Rio to eat the fruit candies five
times, by the fifth time, she says she ate all four kinds.
Carefully look at the candy bottles and, instead of four
kinds, there are five kinds. The fifth kind isn't on the
table because it's Jonathan's collection.
     Correct password is "Ichigo kyandexi-" (ichigo candy,
strawberry candy).

   - The instantaneously teleporting alien.

     Against the instantaneously teleporting alien ("Warp
Yarou"), when it falls from above, command Rio to jump and
avoid the shock wave. Then, command Rio to attack the
alien's "medama" (eyeball), which is possibly its weak
point.

   - Password to open safe in manager room.

     To open the safe in the manager room, turn the dial:
right 4, left 6, right 2.

   - Mutou san.

     In the senior room, when the guard Mutou san forcibly
takes Rio, command Rio to "odosu" (threaten).

7.   PAR CODES

     Some PAR (Pro Action Replay for PS2) codes.

     Master Code
     EC8282E0 1434A53C

     Life = Max
     1CE580C0 1456E4FD

     Heal Capsule = 99 units
     1CE58000 1456E788

     Launcher = 99 rounds
     1CE58020 1456E788

     Chip = 16 units
     1CE68360 1456E7B5

     (IMO, hex editing is for cowardly Munchkin scum. Real
Men/Women don't hex edit.)
