Shining Force II - One At A Time Game Genie Codes (USA)
This page contains the Game Genie codes that I have for Shining Force II (USA), a game for Sega Genesis. If you're using an emulator you will be able to input the codes found on this page directly into the program and use them. For those of you who are old school and playing on a physical console, you'll have to purchase a Game Genie device to use them.
If you don't see the code you want on this page, I recommend you return to my Shining Force II Guides Index and choose a different section.
Note: Only use one of the codes on this page at a time. They do a lot and can interfere with each other.
Secret Battle Cheats
Easily Access Secret Battle Cheats: 98HT-F99W
As soon as you see the SEGA logo (when you first start the game), press: UP, UP (before the SEGA logo fades away). You'll hear some sinister music if you did it right. Then, press and hold the START button while you use the C button and directional pad to select your saved game. If you choose to start a new game, you will get to rename every character in the game. Just remember to hold down the START button until the game starts. Here are some of the things this cheat can do: Anytime you're in a town or on the map (not in battle), press and hold B to walk through or over anything. During a battle, when you're close enough to attack an enemy, choose the attack option. When the enemy is highlighted, hold down START and press C. A small box will appear in the upper right hand corner. You can change the number in this box by pressing LEFT or RIGHT. Here's a very quick description of what the different numbers do:
00 - Attack any character (128 = Boss).
01 - Cast any spell on any character.
02 - Use any item on any character.
03 - Not sure (seems to give you exp without attacking).
04 - Makes character explode (damages anyone nearby).
05 - Gives a funny message.
06 - Prism Laser.
Select the number you want and press C. You may have to pick other numbers as well (these are explained in the guide listed below). See note below on where to get more details.
And don't forget that holding down B anywhere outside of battle will allow you to walk through mountains, lakes, buildings, etc. Very fun to play around with.
Secret Configuration Cheat
Easily Access The Secret Configuration Cheat: 98HT-F978
As soon as you see the SEGA logo (when you first start the game), press: UP, DOWN (before the SEGA logo fades away). You'll hear a musical "fanfare" it you did it right. Then, press and hold the START button while you use the C button and directional pad to select your saved game. If you choose to start a new game, you'll get to rename every character in the game. Just remember to hold down the START button until you see the configuration menu. Once there, you can select: Special Turbo, Control Opponent, Auto Battle, and Game Completed.
