100% Combo for Johnny Cage
Pick Johnny Cage, then start your game. Get as close as possible to your opponent, then hold FORWARD and randomly keep hitting HIGH PUNCH. The game won't say it's a 100% combo but you'll see.

NOTE: This does not work against Goro.

Alternate Costumes and Weapons
At the player select screen highlight your player and hold START then press C-UP two or three times (depending on person) then release START and press A to start game. Your fighter should have an awsome new costume and they will take out someone else's weapon.
