Tips on the moves
Some of the moves listed in the book to perform some of the superpowers are backwards. If you can't get the move to work right, reverse it.

An easy way to get the X super powers. When the X Power meter has built up, spin the D-pad down and around up to the right, then hit the Right shift button.

To beat the juggernaut use the sentinel, becasue he can beat up on opponents while they're down.

Beat up a beaten opponent
After you have beaten your opponent, hit start and you'll be able to move around. Now you can beat your downed opponent.

Pause Options
Pause the game during a match and press A or C to get an option menu that allows you to configure the buttons and select between stereo an mono sound.

Use the Arcade Start button
To get a button to act like the arcade button, don't assign a function to that button. With that button you can taunt with Psylocke, beat up your opponent after the match, and perform a special X-power with Storm.

Storm's extra X-Power
To do Storm's hail Storm simply roll from Down to Forward and hit the Start button.
