Bonus characters in Mercenaries mode:
-------------------------------------
Get a four star or higher rank in the indicated Mercenaries mode level to unlock
the corresponding character in Mercenaries mode:
Ada Wong: Pueblo
Albert Wesker: Waterworld
Hunk: Island
Jack Krauser: Castle
Easily unlock characters in Mercenaries mode:
---------------------------------------------
When starting Mercenaries mode, play as Leon and go to the castle. It is much
easier to get a good ranking because you can give the enemies a suplex, which
almost always kills them in one hit. When you get Jack Krauser from the castle,
you can then go to other areas, and it will make it much easier because of his
arm.
Hidden videos:
--------------
There are two hidden cinematics accessible at the title screen. One can be
accessed by remaining idle at the main menu until it starts. The other can be
seen by pressing B on the Wii-mote at the main menu.
Opening doors quicker
When the "Open" command appears by a door, tap A(2) to kick it open quickly.
Doing this will also damage any enemies behind the door at the time you kick.
Easy money:
-----------
When you get to the church, shoot the bell. Every three times you shoot it, some
villagers will appear. Kill them, and you will get anything from Pesetas to ammo
and herbs. You can do this as many times as desired. This is effective if you
have a lot of ammunition or the Chicago Typewriter.
To earn easy money while playing through the game again, carry an empty
Handcannon. It costs no money to have, but you will pick up ammunition for it
occasionally. This is worth more than any other type of ammo in the game. After
collecting the ammunition, sell it to the merchant. Try using the Chicago
Typewriter as your main gun while doing this.
Reticule feedback:
------------------
Equip your handgun and aim the on-screen reticule at any torch or suspended
light. Some times the reticule will turn red and deliver a slight jolt in the
Wii-mote to indicate ammunition or a treasure that you can shoot from the light
and retrieve. This is a slight advantage not available in previous versions of
the game.
Avoiding enemies at start:
--------------------------
After you use the chief's false eye to open the door, walk up the hill until the
truck comes at you. Shoot it and get back. Once it explodes, walk back up the
hill, but go backwards. Keep going all the way to the castle and you will avoid
facing the enemies that would normally appear.
Saving ammunition:
------------------
If you find yourself surrounded by some parasites of Los Ganados or los
Illuminados and do not want to waste ammunition, quickly throw a flash grenade.
Once it explodes, it should make the parasites explode, saving your other
ammunition.
Alternate controls:
-------------------
Disconnect the Nunchuck when the game loads. When prompted to attach the
Nunchuck, attach the Classic Controller instead. You can play classic style
Laser Sight and all.
Remove the Nunchuck, and insert a GameCube controller into port one. You will
now have a laser sight on your weapons and be able to use all of the GameCube's
normal controls. Note: This is very helpful for sniping.
Defeating El Gigantes:
----------------------
When fighting an El Gigante in its second form, take out your Killer 7 and shoot
the parasite, or climb on its back and cut it. Either way, this saves health,
ammunition, and a lot of frustration. Note: This is really only beneficial if
you do not have one of the special weapons.
Defeating Milita:
-----------------
Instead of shooting for their head, shoot them in the knee, then walk up to
them. Instead "Kick", "Suplex" will appear. This will usually kill them
instantly. This will not work if their head is armored.
Defeating the Regenerator:
--------------------------
If you find your rifle is empty, you can also defeat the Regenerator by shooting
a mine into the spot around the parasite. If it is on its back, shoot out its
legs with your handgun, then fire a mine into its back. If this does not work,
find out where the parasite is on the Regenerator and try again.
