Ghostbusters: Special Edition

ゴーストバスターズ

Expands Sega's Ghostbusters with Winston and several other playable characters, new cheats, a battery save and a punishing Nightmare Mode.

What's new

Special Edition by BillyTime! Games reworks Sega's Ghostbusters around a bigger cast. Winston Zeddemore finally joins the team, and pressing left or right on the character select screen reveals further playable characters, among them Kylie Griffin, Janine Melnitz and a crash test dummy, alongside alternate versions of the original three. There is a new select screen and extra costume colours.

Other additions in version 3.0:

  • A battery save that keeps weapons, upgrades, items and stage progress.
  • New cheat codes such as god mode, double money and unlimited traps, plus the codes from the Japanese release restored.
  • Up to five Peking Ducks can be bought.
  • Nightmare Mode: one life, less health, no continues, no cheats and no saving.

The documentation that comes with the patch explains how to reach every feature. Lighter optional versions are kept as legacy patches.
