Use the clear-based bonus unlocks
Jump Forever, Skating Board and Paper Plane follow specific Jimmy-stage clears. These are longer survival games with their own failure conditions.
| Game | Requirement | Style |
|---|---|---|
| Jump Forever | Clear Jimmy | Jump-rope survival |
| Skating Board | Clear Jimmy’s Remix No. 1 | Jump and duck obstacles |
| Paper Plane | Clear Jimmy’s Remix No. 2 | Guide a descending plane |
| Dr. Wario | Score 20 in Jimmy | Capsule puzzle |
| Fly Swatter | Score 25 in Remix No. 1 | Swat insects |
| Sheriff | Score 25 in Remix No. 2 | Directional shooting |
Beat score targets for the other classics
Dr. Wario, Fly Swatter and Sheriff need higher scores in Jimmy’s stages. A first story clear may therefore leave those icons unavailable.
| Tower | Unlock | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Easy | Clear final Wario stage | Basic variants without speed increases |
| Total Boss | Clear final Wario stage | Boss-only sequence |
| Thrilling | Score 15 in Easy | Hard variants and one life |
| Hard | Score 15 in Thrilling | Fast basic variants |
Separate speed from difficulty in towers
Easy keeps basic games at normal speed; Thrilling uses hard variants with only one life. Hard emphasizes speed, and Total Boss contains only boss encounters.
Share one handheld for two-player extras
The original GBA game includes small two-player activities controlled with the L and R buttons. This is different from the broader GameCube party-game modes.
