Eternal Arcadia

After you have your ship upgraded to fly very high/low, you can avoid battles on your ship by simply going high above/below the clouds. You may then travel anywhere on the map without battling enemies every 10 seconds.*NOTE: This applies to battle on the Deck of your ship, not Ship to Ship battles.*

Highlight "Skies Of Arcadia" at the main demo menu. Hold L + R and press Start. Keep L + R held while the game loads. While L + R are held, press Start, A(3) at the epilepsy warning screen. Release L + R. The message "CESA ROM Aug 8, 2000 10:13:12" will appear to confirm correct code entry. The debug menu will be in Japanese. Select the top option to access the scene selection screen.

At the game select screen, highlight Skies of Arcadia. While holding both triggers down, press start twice - DO NOT let up on the triggers. Let the demo load up while still holding down the triggers. At the seizure warning screen, (still holding triggers) hit start and then the A button two or three times. You can now let up on the triggers. You should now be at a screen that says CESA ROM Aug 8, 2000 10:13:12 and it will have a bunch of japanese text in a menu. Selecting the first set of japanese characters will take you into a screen that has japanese text on the very top, and the word scene followed by the number 103a. You can adjust the numbers by using the triggers and dpad. Left trigger increases the hundreds, right trig decreases the hundreds, with five being the highest available number. Up and down on the dpad adjust the tens and ones values, left right adjusts the letters from a to z.

After you go through the Dark Rift you will be able to go back. After you finish off all the tasks and you have to go around the world, go back to the Dark Rift and go to the exit. You will see a large black Elooper which is stronger than Ramirez. Get into battle with it and automatically use Vyse's Skull Shield, Aika's Blocking Magic special, Drachma's Spirit Charge, and have Fina Focus. Repeat until you get the Prophecy crew special and use it. Keep doing this until it dies to get 7000 experience points.

To find Glacia easier, look at the lands of ice. Most of the ice is white, but within the white ice is one light blue area. It is over the mountain when you discover the lights in the sky -- go to the other side of where you are now (over the mountain). In that side alone, look for a light blue area in the ground containing a city frozen in ice. Note: This is very hard to find because none of the tips of the buildings in the city emerge from the ground.
