Get Asch in your party permanently

In the OverWorld, when there is no loading occurring, open the disc tray and remove the game disc, then shut the disc tray. Without the game disc, you can go anywhere in the OverWorld. Once you got to the desired spot, open the disc tray and put game disc back in, then close the disc tray. You can get Asch on the Albiorl and leave Luke forever in the Mushroom Road with this trick. Note: You will lose Luke if you do this.

Final Fantasy 7 reference

During the game you will learn of the underworld know as the Qlipoth. However, the trees that hold the over world up are called the Sephiroth.

Original Dragon Buster costume

When you start a game of Tales Of Dragon Buster at Namco Isle, you can use the original Dragon Buster man character's costume. Doing so will give the minigame retro music and sound effects.

Unlocking the secret shop (Brillante)

In order to unlock the secret shop you must completely fill the collector's book in the game (this requires at least two playthroughs). Upon completion, speak to the man dressed in purple at the library in the Daath church to receive Jade's "Item Collector" title. Speak to the man again with the title equipped and the shop will appear near the Inn in Grand Chokmah.
