Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin

Beat the game on Hard Mode. During the credits reel, there will be a different portrait of Vincent.

Complete the game with the best ending to unlock the following:

Go to Vincent on your Birthday and He will offer you a special treat...a Birthday Cake, but it will cost you $3000 dollars. Happy Birthday!

There are 3 Boss Rush courses where you face a string of bosses without breaks in between. Each course has its rewards if you beat it within a certain amount of time.

To easily defeat the doppleganger, equip Jonathan with the Illusion fist, and make sure he's stronger. Due to the lack of an animation, all the doppleganger will be able to do is walk towards you, unable to attack. This makes the fight pathetically easy.

Upon completing a Quest, Talk to Wind to open up the quest menu. Press A twice. When you hear the "reward" chime, press START to exit the quest menu. The quest reward is already given to you, however, the quest is uncleared from the list. You can repeat this as many times as you want and get the rewards again.

To enable English voices in the Japanese version of this game, simply press 'A' while holding 'L' at any of the main menu choices. Jonathan will say "showtime" to confirm the activation.

First, for this glitch to work, you must complete theses steps:

1. Have a game completed with Jonathan at hard (any caps will do, but 1 is recommended for the purpose of the glitch).
2. Go on jonathan's new game + and press A once.
3. When it shows the difficulty to use, press B.
4. Go on an empty save file, press A.
5. Choose any of the characters and start the game.

If you try to defeat enemies, you'll notice you do the same damage (If you had the str boost from the LV1 Cap at hard) than if you were LV40, but at LV1!

Depending on which Level Cap is used, defeating Hard Mode will yield different bonuses: non-sellable and non-usable "trophies" and permanent stat boosts. Defeating Hard Mode with a lower cap will automatically net items from the higher level caps. For example, defeating Hard Mode with Level 1 cap will give you all 3 sets of bonuses.

To perform this glitch, you need to have at least 1 item in your use inventory, otherwise you can't access your use inventory menu.Performing this glitch is different, depending on how many items you have in your use inventory menu.1 item in Use inventory: Touch the screen around the middle of the right side of the black space.2 or more items in Use inventory: Touch the small space between the top-right item and the edge of the screen.Doing so, will make the item description say "Restores 80 HP"Press "A" at this point to "Use" a potion.NOTE: If you have any normal potions they will be consumed, but if not, you will use a potion that doesn't exist. High and Super Potions will not be consumed.
