Battle Game (バトルゲーム)[]
Battle Mode is still the series' traditional multiplayer mode. First, you must choose whether you want to play alone (ひとりであそぶ), with a friend through multi cartridge (マルチカートリッジ), or through a single cartridge (ワンカートリッジ). Then, you'll be on the lobby screen, when there's at least 2 players in, the host can press the A button to go on to the next step (skip this step if you play alone, skip the next two steps if you're in a single cartridge mode). Then, you can choose to fill in the empty spots with the COM, and set their level individually, between 4 levels: Weak (よわい), Normal (ふつう), Strong (つよい), and Greatest (さいきょう). Then, you can choose your character. The player can choose any member of the Jetters, as well as boss or enemy characters, and you can even choose the same character if you wish. Then, if there's 3 players or more, you can setup a team. Then, change what's on any the rules settings:
- Matches (しょうぶすう): A number of wins required to win the match [1/2/☆3/4/5].
- Time (タイム): How long each round will last [1:00/2:00/☆3:00/4:00/5:00/∞].
- Shuffle (シャッフル): Whether or not each player's position is swapped [☆Off (オフ)/On (オン)].
- Sudden Death (サドンデス): Whether or not the Pressure Blocks will fill the entire stage during the 1 minute mark (40 seconds if the time setting is 1:00), or a Hige Hige Bandit wearing a pot will pursue and kill players on contact [☆Off (オフ)/On (オン)/Random (ランダム)/Hige Hige (ヒゲヒゲ)].
- Skull (ドクロ): Whether or not the Skull item is immune to bomb blasts [☆Burn (もえる)/No Burn (もえない)].
- Misobom Get (みそボンゲット): Whether or not the winner of each match gets to play a bonus game [☆Off (オフ)/On (オン)].
- Misobom (みそボン): Whether or not the defeated players get to throw bombs at the remaining players [☆Off (オフ)/On (オン)/Super (スーパー)].
Then, the last step is the stage select. While on this screen, press the L shoulder button takes you to the Item Setting (アイテムせってい) screen, where you can distribute up to 24 points on any items you want (Max. 9 each), while the R shoulder button takes you to the Handicap Setting (ハンデせってい), where you can set up to 5 items for each player.
