Snatcher Sega CD Help

Post by Solid Snack »

I'm playing through Snatcher for the first time and, against my better judgment, i pulled out my Junker I.D. before i had a chance to find any of the what I'm guessing are really important clues in Outer Haven. Obviously a shady place like that wont let me back in knowing I'm a Junker, but there's gotta be some way because i assume i have to get info from there before i continue my investigation. DAMN YOU CASTLEVANIA COSPLAYERS!!! When i got the "...." response for the guy dressed like Dracula i figured he knew something, so i flashed my badge to shake 'em up a bit but my gut told me i was gunna get kicked out the second i showed my I.D. .... DAMN!

I shouldint need to say this but no spoilers please. And if i need a spoiler to figure out how to get back in I'd rather figure it out on my own. Thanks again.

Just head to Junker HQ, and go back again immediately (you'll be pardoned and allowed back in). Just remember to never flash your badge again in there.

As far as I remember you can't do that a second time, Metal Gear will stop you from doing so.

Ah yeah, that's right. I love going back to Junker HQ and talking with the Chief once I make a big mistake though, like when you spend too much money, he gets pissed, or when you first arrive at Junker HQ at the start of the game, and you wander around and look and 'investigate' everything in sight; he starts complaining that you are careless etc.

Plus one other tiny secret I found lately is when you first enter the abandoned building and look and investigate everything in great detail, Metal Gear will pick up something on the motion sensor, coming from a far distance and it getting closer and closer, only to find it's just a fly. Small touches like that make me really like this game a lot.

And if you keep harassing Mika at the beginning of the game and then visit the Chief's Office again, just before you meet Harry, he'll also scold you for sexual harrasment.
That's one of the main reason for the replay value, everytime I replay the game I discover something new. I honestly can't find for the PCE translation to find all the stuff that's been cut out or changed from the Sega CD version.

Yeah, and then the same thing will happen in Gibsons garden just before you go back in the house after the crow scene.

You did what!?

That's it, hand in your badge and gun. You're off the case.

I absolutely love that scene, mostly in the Mega CD version with cosplayers dressed as Simon Belmont and Dracula (from Castlevania), Bill Rizer and Lance Bean (from Contra), Goemon (from Ganbare Goemon), Sparkster (from Rocket Knight Adventures) and Kazuhiro Ueda (from Lethal Enforcers, and in fact, a real Konami employee). Pure Konami fan service. I prefer them way more to the original crew of movie/manga licenses.

Hey! You still don't have a Sega CD?
What are you waiting for, Nintendo to make one?

The game bugged out to me when i did that. Suddenly the game froze like when you use the turbocycle for the first time. Damned Gens (I still love you :cry: )
And then the long pulse of Zion Dub...
