Super Magican

An unlicensed Zombies Ate My Neighbors-type game where you go around using magic to save your friends. "Super Magican" (presumably a misspelling of "Super Magician") is the name used on the packaging and the title screen.

Unused Password#

The game has 17 levels, but only 16 passwords are checked. There is an explicit 17th password, pictured left. The game will refuse to check for it, but you can force the game to check for it with the patch code 58D6:720F in an emulator.

Unused Credits#

When the game checks to see if you beat the last level, it jumps into a function that jumps back to the title screen. This jump jumps over a block of unused data which turns out to be code for an unused credits roll. To have the game show the credits roll, use the codes 40A2:4E71 and 40A4:4E71.
