Glitch
This game has too much glitch.
Don't try to press left and right together and shoot or throw grenade, otherwise touch the frozen glitch or reset game or emulator been broken. The useless and agonising glitch, But when play in the real GBA, no need to care about it.

Disappear Giltch. Something good and something bad.
The good news, I can skip many enemies appear. e.g. Many high HP machine.
The bad news.
Some time I kill the less soldiers than my plan. I have to waste some frames to kill another more soldiers.
Some time the prisoner and supply disappeared. I have to choose the worse way to make them appear. (see walkthrough)

| Kill soldiers | 36 | Save prisoners | 5 | Get cards | 3 | 11 44 79 |
mission2 (6700f, 01:52)
Part1. I can't skip the first helicopter like #3870: mtvf1's GBA Metal Slug Advance in 11:13.16. How to skip it? First, I can't save a prisoner to get H. 2nd, wait for blockhouse fire. If I save this prisoner, I can't skip helicopter. So I must get metal slug. This helicopter HP is 650, and throwing metal slug can make 400 damage. But I found a glitch can hit this helicopter twice.
Part2. at the same reason, I can't skip these two helicopters, too.
Boss battle. BossHP 2496x2. I found a perfect trick about using L! 8 frames, 32 damage and 0.5 arms! In the end of 1st twin boss, I have to wait some frames and manipulate luck for the 2nd twin boss's action.

mission3 1st (15400f, 04:18)
Part1.
| Important card | 37 Hyper Vulcan | Enhances vulcan cannon power. |
Part2. I found a way to make bats disappear. 1st, near the screen end, and then jump back. But at this time, system has decided that bats are appearing one by one. So I can use these about 300 frames to save more prisoners until the last bat disappear.
| Important card | 17 Grenade clip | Doubles supply of grenades. |
| 8 H.M. Clip | Doubles heavy machine gun ammo. |
Part3. I wait some frames to kill more soldiers.

Part1. I must use and empty all Shotgun before get another Shotgun arms. If I didn't empty it, the arms only be added 10.
| Important card | 14 E.C. Clip | Doubles enemy chaser ammo. |
Part2. Very large lags, because soldiers appeared anywhere, though most of them are not in screen.
When got important card 22 Shotgun+, I face back and lead to more soldiers. For 3 reason.
1. Kill more soldiers.
2. Skip the next missile launcher appear.
3. If I don't do it, the disppeared thing is not missile launcher but a prisoner. I can't complete this 100% run.

mission5 1st (37600f, 10:30)
Take death, and get a funny card
| 85 Washout | Given for not killing a single enemy.(Die and don't continue. ) |
I think this is the fastest way to die.
Part1. (parachute)
Part2. (bridge) Skip a tractor shovel.
Part2. (bridge) Skip a tractor shovel.
Part3. I chose the path2 first, becuase I need to get card 31 Flak Jacket. And then I can take more damage in mission5's part1.
| Important card | 38 Hyper Cannon | Enhances slug's cannon power. |
| 31 Flak Jacket | Decreases damage to player by 10%. |
Boss battle. BossHP 7200. Because I have got card 22 Shotgun+ and 28 Super TNT in mission4. Shotgun's power is be added to 240, and Bomb's is 120. So The boss's HP is amount to 6000!
I didn't hit this boss so quickly, I must wait for boss's gate close befor its lower than 2300. Otherwise totle 3 small flies fly out from the gate.

Part1. As you see, I take the more damage.
Part2. I touched the Rumi Aikawa(a bag girl). She isn't in prisoners list, but a prisoners count RAM address 0300485C been added. There is another address 0200CDEA can show the prisoners, too, but it only changes in select screen. Maybe I can change 100% to 101%.
In fact, Rumi Aikawa is a card in mission2.
74 Rumi Ubiquitous guy of supply. Bad at navigation.

Part3. In a storeroom, I face left and jump to touch the prisoners. It's very important. If face to right, the GO will disappear, and I have to beat all enemies which in this storeroom. And in this room, I got the very important card 55 Dungeon. Now I can enter into the Dungeon mission. This is the reason that why I choose the path1 second.

Dungeon mission 3rd (69100f, 19:18)
At the end, there are 5 prisoners. I have to take the useless shotgun, though shotgun is slower than handgun. Because of the Disappear Giltch, at this time, the disappeared is last 1 of 3 prisoners. If I didn't take shotgun or be taken was fish, and kill foes so quickly, I only could save 4 prisoners.
In dungeon mission, getting any card would auto-exit. So I got the Banana first.
