How Passwords Work#

Password	Stage
EDK NAI ZOL LDL	Stage 2
IDO GEM IAL LDL	Stage 3
ZDE XOE ZOL OME	Stage 4
EFH VEI RAG ORD	Stage 5
ADE NAI WRA LKA	Stage 6
EFH XOE IAL LDL	Stage 7
EDK VEI IAL LDL	Stage 8

Memory locations of interest:

0xFF007C.w is password word 1, values 1-4 map to EDK, ADE, EFH, IDO
0xFF007E.w is password word 2, values 1-4 map to VEI, XOE, NAI, GEM
0xFF0080.w is password word 3, values 1-4 map to IAL, WRA, ZOL, RAG
0xFF0082.w is password word 4, values 1-4 map to LDL, LKA, ORD, OME
0xFF0084.w holds nibbles containing the above words when doing the password list lookup; thus EFH VEI RAG ORD is values 3,1,4,3 and this word contains 0x3143.
0x0038BE is the password list, containing 7 entries of 6 bytes and a terminator word of -1.

The password values are not shown until you change them with the directional pad, and are initialized to 1,3,1,3 (EDK, NAI, IAL, ORD). These settings are still valid so you only have to change enough words from the default to create a valid password.
