Thanks for reminding me that I misinterpreted how it was started! Just fixed.
Has the rule sheet not been updated with the correct rules for qualifying King of the Monsters? Do I need a Super Jackpot in both Godzilla and Mechagodzilla Multiball and to beat Planet X, or as the rule sheet says, is it enough to just play either Monster Zero or Terror of Mechagodzilla, play (but not necessarily complete) Planet X, and reach Power-Up level 8? I’m confused.
The requirements for KOTM are to reach powerup level 8 and have played Planet X. Implicitly, you must have gotten a super jackpot in either GZ or MechaGZ multiball in order to light either Monster Zero or Terror of Mecha at powerup level 4. Also implicit are the requirements to reach planet X (play Tank, Bridge, Tesla, and a level-2 kaiju battle, which in turn means you must have traveled at least once from Tokyo to a second city, and played both of those level-1 battles.) You don’t have to win anything along the way other than getting either of those two supers and getting enough powerups.
Powerup level 8 can offer a choice between KOTM or whichever of Zero or Terror you didn’t play at level 4, if it has been qualified with the super jackpot. If you don’t choose KOTM at level 8, you must reach level 11 to be offered another chance at it.
Older code offered KOTM only at level 11, after having played both Monster Zero and Terror of Mecha at both levels 4 and 8.
Hello,
Minor correction suggestion here:
You have that Planet X Multiball is selectable at City Select after starting a Kaiju battle, Tesla Strike, Tank, and Bridge. This was driving me crazy because I would complete everything in Tokyo and see no Planet X Multiball. However, I did see (and play) Planet X Multiball tonight after I conquered Paris (second city for me) and started a Tier 2 Kaiju battle. Thus, I think the conditions for accessing Planet X Multiball are:
- Start Tier 1 Kaiju Battle
- Start Tier 2 Kaiju Battle
- Start Tesla Strike
- Start Bridge Attack Multiball
- Start Tank Multiball
I confirmed this and updated the wiki. I worded it this way to give a little more detail about how to start a Tier 2 battle.
- Starting a Tier 2 Kaiju Battle
- Tier 2 battles can only be played by starting a Tier 1 battle, then changing cities and completing at least half of a second Tier 1 battle in that new city.
- Starting Tesla Strike
- Starting Bridge Attack Multiball
- Starting Tank Attack Multiball
