------------------------------------------- waverace64 ------------------------------------------- Speed Burst Try to press and hold down the gas button right before the announcer says, "Go!" If you are successful, you will immediately increase your top speed. It can be increased anywhere from one arrow to maximum power if you get it right. ------------------------------------------- Mega Points for Stunts In stunt mode, right after you do a stunt and the announcer is about to say something, pause the game. If you do it right, all sounds should stop except the announcer's voice, and you'll get a great deal of points even for simple stunts. -------------------------------------------- New Colors When you are selecting your jet ski, highlight any character, and hold up on the analog stick. The character and jetski should change color! You have your choice between two different colors. -------------------------------------------- Ride On A Dolphin! I've simplified the code down to the point that it's really easy. Here is what you do......... Select the Stunt Mode and play in Dolphin Park. From there you need to go through all the rings and do all the stunts (listed below), which includes diving underneath the water from a ramp. If you did everything correctly, you'll hear the dolphin squeaking when you cross the finish line. Handstand (off throttle - press down and up) Spin, i.e. "backwards ride" (off throttle - move stick clockwise) Stand (off throttle - move stick counterclockwise) + Somersault (hold down) Roll left (off ramp - tap right and hold left) Roll right (off ramp - tap left and hold right) Flip (off ramp - hold up and snap down) Dive (off ramp - hold down and snap up) Now exit and select Championship Mode and then Warm Up. When selecting your character, hold down on the analog stick and when you start, you'll be riding a dolphin. There is a catch, though; you can only use the dolphin within this area. This cheat is also saved to your game too (even after the power is turned off), so you don't have to go through the stunt mode each time. -------------------------------------------- Dampen waves Press B just before you hit a big wave and itwill reduce the air time when you fly off the wave. This also works on the ramps. ------------------------------------------- Change Camera Angle C button up & down: Changes the zoom, in & out, on the camera.C left & right: Changes camera angle as the rider turns ------------------------------------------------- Slide On Water R Button: Slide on the water's surface. Useful if you take a turn too soon. ------------------------------------------------- Custom Characters Ayumi Stuwart: Upgrade here engine to top end. She accelerates fast enough, so this impoves here speed. Ryoto Hayami: Loosen his handling and grip a bit to improve his speed. Miles Jeter: Tighten his grip and handling. Increase his engine speed one or two notches. HOT!!! Dave Marier: Loosen his handling and tighten his grip. Decrease his engine to dash. This increases his acceleration. -------------------------------------------------- Stunt Mode Cheat This is where press start just as youare about to land a stunt? For those who don't know, doing thisincreases your stunt points dramatically! I've tried it, it works, Iblew away all of my old stunt scores today in about an hour, and now Idon't feel like playing any more. What's next; can you press start asyou pass a pylon to shave 3 seconds off a racing score? I could seemaybe getting Southern Island down to 12 or 13 seconds. That'd be real fun. ----------------------------------------------------- Same Colored Racer in Two-Player Mode Here's a cool trick that allows both players to have the same racer AND the same color in Wave Race 64. First, use controller two to decide which racer you are going to use in the Vs. Mode, and make sure that the first player's cursor is on an adjacent racer. Press up on controller two (digital or analog) and press Start to have player 1's default color. Then, on controller one, press right (or left) and Start at almost the same time. If you do this correctly, you can start the race with both players having the same color. If you want both players to have player 2's default color instead, try the following: Use controller one to decide the racer, and make sure that the second player's cursor is on an adjacent racer. Press up on controller one and press Start. Now on controller two, press right (or left) and Start at almost the same time. That's all there is to it. If you aren't already confused, wait until you start the match! ------------------------------------------------------ New, Unlisted Stunts Double Flip Stunt: First get some speed with the jet ski. When you are on the ramp tap up one inch from the top of the ramp and hold down to do your flip. Instead of making the character do one complete flip hold the down button longer so he does another turn. If you do it correctly he will land perfectly and ride on. J. Meter is the best guy to do this especially on the small ramps. You get 2000+ points for this stunt. I have gotten 3120 for this stunt in Sunny Beach because the "judges" (the algorithm which calculates the score) gives you more for a smaller ramp and the height you jump off the ramp. Helicopter Stunt: It is a variation of the flip where you spin side ways. When you are on the ramp turn sharply diagonal left-up or diagonal right-up then hold down to do a side ways flip. You can get an average of 1700+ points for this. Helicopter into a Flip Stunt: Do the helicopter stunt as listed above but hold the down button more longer. It will look like he does a helicopter move but then rotates so he is an upright position and does another flip. You can get 2500+ points if done corectly. I have gotten 3450 points on the first ramp in Twilight City for this. Triple Flip: To my knowledge this stunt can only be done in Glacier Park on the big ramp. You need a lot of speed and a lot of air to do this. It can only be done with J. Meter on this stage to my knowledge. You tap up 1-2 inches from the top of the ramp and start doing the flip and hold down. You need a lot of speed for this one so do not try to do any turns or get hit by an ice block in the water which may slow you down or stop you completely. You can get 3000+ points for this. I have gotten 5610 points because I sort of started like a helicopter stunt with two flips after. Note that this is a difficult stunt to perform and you do need a lot of speed, timing, and maybe some tinkering with the customization of the racer at the character select screen. ------------------------------------------------------------ Instant Power Ups At the beginning of a race, hold both gas buttons as the last light beeps. The closer you get to the light, the more power you get. ------------------------------------------------------------
