There's no real item codes or anything for Suikoden, just lame ones like "All Characters Max EXP" and other lame character codes that make the game unfun.

Side-Note:

I've gotten both the Princess & Ferid on my first tries, it's really not that impossible... here's some simple strategies...

Checkers: Just pay attention, get up to the TV, map out all the possible moves that your opponent can make, and be aggressive. Playing defensive on this AI never works, it also tries to avoid Eye for an Eye (Sacrifice your piece to capture his piece) moves almost always, so use that to your advantage, and good luck!

Capture: Okay, this is VERY easy... here's a very simple strategy, take the left or right side piece, and move it up to about the 4th row... (counting from the bottom), and then just slowly build a wall, moving up, preventing the pieces around you from escaping into your territory, then just protect yourself on the sides, by slowly building in from your two side pieces, eventually, you'll make an uber-wall. In fact, the way I captured Ferid, was that I ended up capturing all of his pieces at once! It was awesome!

Territory: Okay, this game is really easy too... just stick a piece in the corner... left or right, doesn't matter, and eventually, when your oponent only needs 1 piece left, he'll start manuevering around his piece back and forth, wait until he gets to the other side of the board (move around another piece in a square pattern), and then your piece SHOULD be able to make it in 2 or 3 moves, this same thing can be done on Hard mode too, it's just a little tricky.

the gamefaqs guide is very detailed and pretty accurate on who appears in what game.

Finally beat those games myself. The wall strategy in Entrapment is flawless once you get the hang of it, and Conquerer is broken. Every game is a stalemate even on hard. The computer just seemingly gives up.

Only thing I had to get a little lucky on was Checkers, and I failed at Lymsleia a few times before finally landing her. Glad I came on here before I sold off the rewards.

So they're truly unique then? I'm not a fan of antiques, but I may as well hang onto them.

By the way thay is not 112 piesces in the game
theay are 113
Eresh and euram both have theyre own piesces.

of course if you want both of them you have to go trough a new game +

so have fun!

I got all the pieces a month ago, just didn't got to beat the game and I'm tired to play it again. To get the rare pieces you must have a lot of patience and have to be at least a little smart to observe all the tactics of the three games.

Well, if you're a Lucretia-like, certainly you'll beat them in no time. (not saying that I am, of course)

No, I think there isn't how to get both.
