Final Fantasy IX Cheats

To skip FMVs open up your PSX cover, and wait for the disk to stop spinning, and close the cover, or on your PS2, eject the disk and put it straight back in. This is especially useful when you are trying to get the Excalibre II as even when FMVs are playing the clock is ticking!

After the destruction in Alexandria by Kuja in disc three, return to Quan's Dwelling with Quina and Vivi in your party. Quina starts to dream about food and a conversation soon takes place on the patio. I won't reveal anything about this conversation but you will meet a very important person here and learn some profound things. After the conversation, search the stopped clock on the patio to find a Running Shoes.

You can fight this optional boss either in disc 2 when trying to save Dagger/Garnet, and in disc 3 when trying to save Dagger/Garnet and Eiko.
To fight this Boss, go into the library on the first floor to the left, and stand next to the bookcase on the bottom left. You should see a book lying on the top of the bookcase, which you have to challenge it to battle.

In Memoria, you will reach an area where Quina thinks he is in the waters and he attempts to swim. After the conversation, search the right side of the screen to find a hidden area amongst the coral. A mysterious voice asks you to leave at once because you have disturb his sleep. Choose to refuse to leave and you will fight Hades. He's quite deadly. Once you have defeated him, you will be able to gain access to the Legendary Synthesis Shop.

After finding Chocobos Paradise, talk to the Chocobo on the left of Fat Chocobo.If you ask for some, the Chocobo will bring your Dead Pepper count to the max amount, 99. Use or sell the Dead Peppers, come back and repeat as many times as you like.

Complete the Stellazzio quest and keep Cinna's Hammer in your item inventory. DO NOT use the Hammer in the Legendary Synthesis Shop. You will see an additional hidden sequence in the ending. Your eyes got to be sharp to see the difference(s). The second ending is just a few minutes longer than the original one. Have one save file with the Hammer in your inventory and another save file without the Hammer in your inventory to spot the differences.

Do you know that you can have up to two players controlling your players during your combat. All you need is to go to the main menu, go to config and then click battle control. Choose the CUSTOM option and an extra menu pops up, listing the names of all the characters and beside each name, you can select whether you want controller 1 or 2 to control each individual character. During combat, you will then notice a controller icon with either the word '1' or '2' on the top right hand corner of the screen. That indicates which player 1 or 2 is controlling now. Note that this ONLY applies to BATTLES and NOTHING else.

At the beginning of the game, after fighting Baku for the first time, Baku will start explaining about the first mission that you will be having. Your first mission is to go to Alexandria and kidnap Princess Garnet. Baku will ask you whether you are kidnapping Queen Brahne or Princess Garnet to ensure that you know your mission well. If you keep answering Baku's question incorrectly for 64 times by choosing Queen Brahne, Ruby will then storm into the room.

You MUST have the Doga's Artifact and Une's Mirror. You can bid for these two key items at the Treno's Auction house. After the world of Terra has been destroyed, at the beginning of disc four and onwards, return to Black Mage Village. Examine the gramophone at the Black Mage Village inn. You notice that the background music will change to a beautiful melody taken from the Final Fantasy III [Japanese] soundtrack and this melody continues on until you leave the Black Mage Village.
