2 de abril de 2021

Neste post, reunimos algumas trapaças, dicas e detonados do P.O.W.: Prisoners of War do NES, a versão deste clássico beat ’em up da SNK, onde o jogador deve escapar de uma prisão militar e frustrar os planos do inimigo, lançada ao console 8-bit da Nintendo em setembro de 1989.

Até momento, temos aqui a manha para começar o jogo com 21 vidas, códigos para Pro Action Replay e Game Genie, um guia em texto e um detonado em vídeo. Claro, acho que tudo isso deve funcionar no Famicom, a versão japonesa deste videogame, de boa também.

Como sempre, na medida em que eu encontrar mais dicas, complementarei a publicação, e você pode ajudar, enviando complementações, correções e dúvidas nos comentários.

Enfim, vamos às dicas:

Começar com 21 vidas

Para começar uma partida do P.O.W.: Prisioners of Wars com 21 vidas, pressione, na tela de título, a sequência: A, B, B, Cima, Cima, Baixo, Esquerda e Start.

Se tiver feito certo, o protagonista vai começar com o mostrador contando 20 vidas que, mais a vida “0”, dá 21:

Note que esse código tem que ser executado na tela de título mesmo, a que fica escrito “Game Start” e “Continue”, nem antes dela aparecer e nem depois:

Note também que esses são os botões do controle do NES, não as teclas do seu teclado, caso esteja jogando no emulador. Configure a parada direito aí antes de reclamar.

Códigos do Game Genie

As trapaças abaixo necessitam do dispositivo Game Genie:

  • AENSLPPA – Vidas infinitas;
  • AEUEIZZA – Iniciar com 1 vida;
  • IEUEIZZA – Iniciar com 6 vidas;
  • AEUEIZZE – Iniciar com 9 vidas;

  • GZUUNUSE + GZSLOSSE – Manter armas.

Códigos do Pro Action Replay

2. About the Game                                                              
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                               
This game doesn't really have a story line to it. The story line is basically  
just that you are a soldier that is in the enemy base and is trying to escape. 
This game is an Action/Fighting game. You may also call it a platform game     
since the game play is a little bit like that. The game is kind of like River  
City Ransom (another great game) except for the storyline and the stores.      
Unlike River City Ransom, this game does not have malls and stores where you   
can buy power-ups to help you on your journey and killing gangs. That is the   
other difference, the story line. Other than those two things, the games are   
both basically the same. So, if you like this game, you will love River City   
Ransom.

4. Walkthrough                                                                 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                               
I'm telling you now that you should save the guns as much as you can!!         
                                                                               
The game basically is about a no-name p.o.w. who is trying to destroy the enemy
base. The story isn't that great but it's a really fun game to play if you like
action fighters like this.                                                     
                                                                               
---------------------------------------                                        
Level 1 : P.O.W. Camp                                                          
---------------------------------------                                        
                                                                               
The game starts off with you as a POW; you light a fuse that leads to          
explosives that blow up the wall. You have to escape the prisoner camp. Before 
you leave the building, you will come across two enemies in green suits. Kill  
them to advance. When you go off the wooden floorboard and begin walking on the
dirt, you will come across two more enemies in green suits. One of those two   
enemies is carrying a knife, which you should hold onto until you reach the    
next two enemies. You will then reach two enemies in tan suits. They will both 
have a knife.                                                                  
                                                                               
You can now choose to either go in the building or keep going forward. If you  
go in the building you will have to fight two enemies in tan suits who are     
again holding knives. If you kill these enemies, a power-up will be in the     
middle of the room. After you get that power-up you will see an enemy in a     
green suit that is carrying a knife. After you kill him and take a few steps   
you will find two enemies in green suits, one with a knife and another with a  
gun (which will really come in handy.) After you kill those two, you will find 
two enemies in tan suits both carrying knives. Kill these with the gun that you
got from one of the enemies in a green suit. When you kill those two, another  
two enemies in tan suits will appear, both again carrying knives. After you    
kill those two enemies, two enemies in green suits come out and you will reach 
a building. Enter the building if you'd like to get the power-up. In the       
building, there will be two enemies with light blue suits in there and they    
will both be carrying knives.                                                  
                                                                               
Now take the power-up on the ground and leave the building. When you leave and 
take a few steps, you will see two enemies with tan suits. They will both carry
a knife. The one on the left of the screen just comes out to throw the knife.  
The other enemy is the one you have to kill. When you kill him, walk to the    
next building. Three enemies with green suits, one with a knife, will attack   
you. After you kill one, another enemy will come out of the building, and then 
when you kill one more, another enemy will come out of the building and that   
will be the last of them. After you kill those people, one enemy with a tan    
suit will come out just to throw a grenade. When you get to the next building, 
an enemy will surprise you coming out of the door right before you enter it. In
the building there will be two enemies in green suits.                         
                                                                               
When you leave the building an enemy with a green suit will come out of the    
door that you just left, an easy kill to get. After you kill him you will come 
across two enemies in tan suits, they will both walk out, throw a grenade, and 
walk away. You don't need to attack these people but if you want to go ahead. I
advise that you stay safe and you go to the right of the building to stay safe.
You will then come across three enemies in tan suits, two throwing grenades and
one carrying a knife, you only need to kill the enemy has the knife to move on.
Enter the building to come across two enemies both in green suits and one with 
a knife. Keep going to exit the building.                                      
                                                                               
You will then encounter the enemy in the light blue suit for the first time. He
is carrying a knife and there is only one of them. Keep going to see two       
enemies in light blue suits, both carrying knives. After them, two more enemies
in blue suits with knives come out. You will now find one enemy in a green suit
with a gun. Once again this gun will come in handy. After you kill him you will
come across another enemy in a green suit. Enter the building to find another  
enemy in a green suit. Keep going to find two enemies in green suits that      
surrounded you.  When you exit the building there will be two more enemies in  
green suits.                                                                   
                                                                               
You will then reach the hardest part of the game you have come across so far.  
There will be a grenade thrower on the ladder on the tower throwing grenades   
that you can't do anything about so you'll just have to run by him. After you  
run by him, you will climb a ladder that reaches you to the top of a bridge.   
Take a few steps and you'll come across an enemy in a green suit. After you    
kill him and walk out a few steps you will come across three enemies in tan    
suits, one that throws the knife and runs away. Continue walking to find       
another enemy with a tan suit carrying a knife. Keep going to find two enemies 
in green suits, no weapons.                                                    
                                                                               
Keep walking until you reach the boss. I hope you still have that gun!! A      
helicopter will come out releasing a few enemies. They will all be in tan      
suits with knives. Wait until they line up so you can save ammo, that's if     
you still have the gun. What you should do is kill all the enemies that don't  
have a knife before they throw a grenade. You'll need these grenades that they 
drop to throw at the helicopter and that is how you defeat the boss. It takes  
about four or five grenades to kill the boss.                                  
                                                                               
---------------------------------------                                        
Level 2 : Enemy Base                                                           
---------------------------------------                                        
                                                                               
Now walk through the exploded wall to come across two green enemies. Enter the 
back of the truck and kill the enemy in a green suit with a knife to get a     
power-up. Keep walking and an enemy in a green suit will come out of the truck.
The next truck will have an enemy in a green suit come out before you reach it.
Enter the truck and kill the two enemies in green suits with knives for another
power-up. After leaving the truck, two enemies in green suits exit the back of 
the truck. After those two are killed, you keep walking having two more come   
out. From the other truck, about five will come out, all the same as the other 
enemies in the level, green suits, no weapons. Go in the truck and kill the    
three enemies in green suits with knives.                                      
                                                                               
Keep going to come across an enemy on a motorcycle. Just stay on the bottom of 
the path and you won't get hurt. After you pass the motorcycle, you will come  
across two enemies in light blue suits and knives (do not go any further,) kill
them, take about one more step and another enemy in a light blue suit will come
out with a knife. Keep going to come across two more enemies in light blue     
suits and knives. Keep going for another pair of the same enemies. Keep going  
to reach one more enemy in a light blue suit and a knife. Keep going to reach  
three enemies in tan suits, two with guns, one with a knife. If you stay in    
between the outer two, you won't get hurt by the guns and they'll run off, just
kill the last enemy and move on. Keep going to see some green suited enemies   
walk across the screen, no weapons, no attacking, just walk from one end to    
another. Now you want to stay on the top half of the screen to dodge the       
motorcycles.                                                                   
                                                                               
You will come across two enemies in red suits with knives and one in a tan suit
that throws a grenade. Kill the two in red suits and move on. The water tower  
next to you will then blow up. Flames will fall around you and you should dodge
as many as you can. Keep going to reach some cranes that you should avoid the  
little wrecking ball. An enemy in a green suit will come to you in between the 
first two cranes. Another will appear in between the next two. After the last  
crane, another enemy will come to you. Keep going to reach the water, in the   
water you can only punch so I hope you have the brass knuckles, after a few    
steps you will see an enemy that throws a grenade then leaves, you should keep 
going until you see a hole in the wall with scuba divers falling through it.   
                                                                               
In the water stay in one spot until you see waves, turn to the direction and   
start punching until you see the body fly. Keep killing the enemies until there
are no more, there are about five of them. Keep going to the next set of scuba 
divers. Kill them and keep moving. When you leave the water, you will reach    
another hole in the wall with a ladder. Go up the ladder if you wish and kill  
the four scuba divers in there. Then take the power-up. Get out and keep       
walking against the top wall until you see two gunners that come out quick,    
make a shot, and run away. After they leave an enemy in a green suit will      
appear.                                                                        
                                                                               
The first two enemies don't do anything but the third and fourth fight you.    
Then gunners on the top and bottom of the screen will appear, then one in the  
middle and another enemy. Next kill the two enemies in green suits with knives.
Then go on the top half of the screen to miss the first motorcycle and then the
bottom to dodge the last motorcycle.  Dodge the next three gunners and you will
come across three enemies in red suits with knives. This part is pretty hard to
pass without losing any health. After you kill one another will come. Keep     
killing them until there is no more coming. Keep going until a lot of enemies  
come out of a door, kill all of them and run in the door where you will come   
across three enemies in red suits with knives. Now take the power up and       
leave.                                                                         
                                                                               
After them a lot of enemies will just walk by. After that three tan suited     
enemies will come out with knives, two throwing them, one fighting you. Kill   
him and dodge the next two knife throwers. Now kill the next enemy in a red    
suit and knife and keep moving. Next will be two grenadiers and one knife      
thrower so just stay on the very bottom of the screen to be safe. Next will be 
two enemies with knives and one grenade thrower. Keep going until you reach    
the shot gunner, yet another boss! This boss is annoying since he has a gun and
he knows how to use it. He also uses grenades to hurt you when you're close.   
From here on you should just keep punching and kicking him until he falls.

just to kick you and then walk away. Keep going to reach two more enemies in

you see three scuba divers fall, don't worry you only need to kill one of them 
since the others don't attack. Now keep going where you will get out of the    
water and reach another one of those grenade throwers like in level one. Dodge 
him to move on.

are too many people in there. Keep going to reach three enemies in light blue

Take a few steps to reach three enemies in green suits with knives. You will   
then come across three enemies in tan suits with knives. After them, the shot  
gunner will appear yet again. This time he's very hard, his grenades go at you 
instead of him dropping them, just hope you don't get hurt by his grenade      
because he will keep throwing grenades so before you get up you'll die again.  
So BE CAREFUL. Now move on to fight an army commando. This guy is a lot easier,
all he does is jump and punch so you'll need to kick him before he can punch   
you, kick him as many times as you can before he start to fun away. He will    
pretend to die so be ready, he will just lie down on the ground and you will   
have to keep fighting him. The screen will go completely black when you beat   
him; all you will see is the boss, you and the HUD. When you beat him you beat 
the game! Congratulations you have successfully escaped from prison!

5. Bosses                                                                      
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                               
Here are a list of the bosses in the game with how to beat the boss and how    
hard the boss is. None of these names are the real names of the bosses, they   
might be but I'm not sure if those are the real names.                         
                                                                               
---------------------------------------                                        
Level one boss:                                                                
---------------------------------------                                        
                                                                               
Helicopter

Weapon to use: Grenades                                                        
What to do: Now this is an easy boss, just kill everybody as quickly as        
possible. When you find an enemy that doesn't carry a knife, just attack him   
once so he will drop a grenade, pick it up and throw it at the helicopter,     
keep doing this until the helicopter blows up.

---------------------------------------                                        
                                                                               
Shot Gunner

What to do: Avoid his shotgun and avoid his grenades as much as possible, be   
careful with his grenades since it kills you in one hit. Just keep getting     
close to him and punch him if you have the brass knuckles. If you don't have   
the brass knuckles just keep kicking him.

can get the grenades and throw the grenades at the tank.

of grenades at you, that is a different enemy.

Here are a list of the power-ups and what they do.

     off of you.

Here is a list of the weapons and what they do.

I put the Brass Knuckles in this section if you consider it more of a weapon   
than a power-up.

9. Tactics                                                                     
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                                                               
There aren't really too many tactics you can use in a Nintendo game but I'll   
give you all of the tactics I could think of.                                  
                                                                               
First off and probably the best, would be, always be careful since you only    
have two extra lives to begin with. Get as many power-ups you can such as      
weapons like the gun and knife. You should try to not get damaged at all. If   
there is more than one enemy, just keep focusing on one that you will attack.  
Always attack him when you get the chance. If you knock him down and there are 
no other enemies around you, keep attacking him before he can get up. If the   
other enemy is coming near you start to run away. Keep doing this and remember 
to stay away from the other enemies.                                           
                                                                               
Another tactic would be the full-on assault. Just keep attacking everybody     
until they all die. You will get hurt if there are other enemies around. This  
is the best form of attack when there is only one other enemy.                 
                                                                               
The safest tactic would be wait until you find an enemy with a weapon. When you
find the enemy. Just keep attacking him until he drops the weapon. You could   
then pick it up and use it. That should help you kill at least one enemy.      
                                                                               
When you reach the enemies that jump, just do a jump kick (found in controls   
section) to kill them before they land on the ground and they won't do damage  
to you, also comes in handy against the level 3 boss.                          
                                                                               
Saving ammo is good, such as when you shoot somebody and there are more than   
one on the screen, try to get them lined-up so you'll only have to use one shot
for two people.                                                                
                                                                               
When you get to the scuba divers, just wait in one spot and behind you, you    
will see a few ripples in the water. When you see those, turn around and start 
punching a lot. Keep punching until they die. After that one dies, another one 
should pop out behind you so you will have to kill them too. Just keep doing   
that until all of the scuba divers are dead.

10. Cheats

Here is a list of cheats but they do take away the fun factor and the challenge
factor, I don't know about you but I just don't like using cheats. It makes the
game less challenging and that's what I want in a game. Well here are the      
cheats:
