Second namingway card
Make vivi stay in treno and you will come to a movie about a boy called mario. Now enter the card tournament and the second person you play will have several namingway cards and even a ribbon card.

How to change the costumes
When you are in the ice cavern and you beat the giant monster that the little man summons without using magic the man will give up and he will give you an item and run away. Now go to deli village and in the hotel you can get changed in to a different costume.

Game Hint:
In Memoria Castle (the final area of the game), on the screen where Zidane convinces Quina that s/he is not underwater, you'll notice that there is room behind a coral on your right and stairs on the left. Go behind the coral and search (pressing X) until you talk to an unknown character (Note: you don't need to go all the way to the back, and an exclamation point will NOT appear above your head). Don't leave and he will engage you in a fight. When you beat this hidden boss, his name is Hades, he will have a change of heart and will synthesise some of the best items in the game for you. You can go back and synth any time you like.

Game Hint:
On disc 3 and 4 when you get the airship fly southwest and sooner or later you should find this place that looks like a cliff with a waterfall near it. Land on the grass enter it an you have these really cool stuff to get!

Go right there's a synthesis shop. Go all the way left there's a weapon shop. (But before you can buy weapons you have to fix that elevator thing)

How you do that, there's this thing that says like left, right, middle, somethin' like that.

Push it all the way left. Then go on the left square he says somethin' 'bout a hole get that stick near the right then you put in the hole you ride the thing on the right square then you go up and nw you coul buy the weapons ! (The discs have different weapons for each time).

Game Hint:
If you are on disk 4 and have a dark blue chocobo, return to shimering island and use a dead pepper to find a great stash of treasures including Zidane's best weapon and the strong maxamilian armor. You have to be directly on top of shimmering island so to do so turn to your map and make sure your chocobo is on top of the dot that says shimmering island.
