The Bouncer

Alternate costumes
Each character in The Bouncer has a total of 4 different costumes that can be used in any mode other than Story. In order to use one of these costumes, simply hold: R1, R2, L1, or L2 while selecting the character of your choice. NOTE: R1 is the default costume color.

Bonus characters
Successfully complete the game to unlock more characters each time that it is finished.

Unlock Leann Caldwell
When you play through the game you will notice Kou talking on the phone to someone. If you play through as Kou, you will hear her voice and learn that her name is actually Leann. You can actually play as this mysterious character by playing through the entire game as Kou (which means, you cannot switch to any other character at any time). During the end sequence, Kou will encounter Leann in the Central Square area and do battle with her. To defeat her, block her attacks and use the Circular Uppercut (ES+MEDIUM buttons) move to juggle her into the air.

Unlock MSF Kou
If you play through the game as Kou, you will encounter a part where he is infiltrating the Mikado building as a MSF soldier. Once you reach that part and save your game, you will be able to use that costume in Survival and Versus modes. To select the costume, hold L1+ L2 + R1 + R2 when selecting Kou in Versus or Survival Mode.

Unlock Black-Hooded Sion
The final opponent in Survival Mode is a black-hooded variation of Sion. You can actually access this costume in Versus and Survival mode with Sion once you complete Survival Mode one time. To select the costume, hold L1+ L2 + R1 + R2 when selecting Sion in Versus or Survival Mode.

Unlock Wong Leung
To unlock Sion's sensei, Wong you must play through the game as any character. When you come up to the battle against Kaldea (the battle right before the final fight), have any character other than Sion fight her. Then, use Sion to complete the game. During the end sequence, right before Dominique comes to visit Sion while he is working the door of the bar, you will view a flashback sequence where Sion will do battle with his master, Wong. Wong fights similar to both Sion and Dauragon. He uses the same two-fisted attack as Dauragon (where he can hit an opponent both in front of him, and behind him), as well as leg sweeps similar to Sion. You can use normal attacks against him, but one special move in particular works very well. Block attacks from Wong, and while he is recovering from one press the ES+MEDIUM buttons (whatever you have them assigned to) to perform the Torpedo Kick move, which will take off a bit of damage and knock Wong off his feet. Turn that into a pattern: Block, Torpedo Kick, Block, Torpedo Kick, etc. to defeat Wong, who you can then use in the Versus mode.
