• Defeating Death Crab

Wait for at least one of his claws to open then start shooting them. Do not lock-on because they will probably hit a different part of his body. Once he screams "No!" and flies into the air, you must destroy all his legs and his claws. Locking-on can be done, but it is not recommended. When all his legs and claws are gone, his mouth will open. Shoot it until he dies. Note: Shooting the eyes can also be done because he attacks with them, but they will return after awhile.

• Easy Missile Jetstream win

Note: You need a character that has a ship with lock-on ability. Charge your shots as you are flying through the beacons. As soon as the missile is able to be locked on to, fire and recharge. Two shots will usually do it.

• One-hit kill lock-on shot

Note: This trick requires a character with a lock-on ability. Keep the thing you use to aim on an enemy while locking-on. The square that appears around them will turn into a diamond. When you release the button to fire, the shot will kill them.

• Panther good!

When on the mission 'Star wolf returns!' and face anglar, go as pather, desite a lack of lock, his zapper takes out the spiked balls with ease, and when anglar is vulnerable, you take of a significant amount of health per zap. Panther is such a natural!

• WiFi ranking

While playing the game on WiFi, notice that there is a letter near your name. When you first start playing on WiFi, the letter will be at Z. The letter represents your rank as a pilot, with "Z" being the lowest rank and "A" the highest rank. The only way to increase your rank is to collect the stars from enemy ships that have been destroyed. Each star gives you about 8 to 9%. When you reach 100%, your letter will go up to the next level. However, the only way for you to get all the experience from each star is to be in first place after each match. If you finish in second place, you will not get the experience.
