Missable content

This page lists items and content in the series which can be permanently missed, or become more difficult to obtain, if not obtained by a certain point in the game.

Note: due to the Chip Trader's low odds of getting the chip you need, chips which can otherwise only be obtained through the Chip Trader are also treated as missable.

Green Mystery Data

The contents of green Mystery Data vary for each difficulty. In some cases, depending on the difficulty and version of the game, green Mystery Data is the only (infinite) source of a chip code (aside from the Chip Trader).

For the chips listed below, once the player has moved on to the next difficulty, they can no longer obtain (infinite) copies of that chip, other than:

  • Chip Trader
  • Shop with limited stock
  • Chip Order using an infinite source of another code
  • Version-specific virus drop

Bolded chips means the chip does not not have a * code which could be obtained instead.

Viruses

For most viruses, lower versions can be encountered even on the highest difficulty (Continue 3+). However, there are a few viruses that only appear on a specific difficulty. As a result, this may lock you out of obtaining certain chip codes, which can otherwise only be obtained (very rarely) from the Chip Trader.

Bolded chips means the chip does not have a * code version which could be obtained instead.

WaterGod Comp Gold Mr. Prog

Main page: WaterGod Comps

The WaterGod Comp can only be accessed if Lan fights Paulie as an opponent in the Red Sun / Blue Moon Tournament. In the WaterGod Comp, a gold Mr. Prog known as the WaterGod Program has a low chance to spawn upon jacking in to the comp. It will give up to 5 rewards from a pool of 8, depending on the current difficulty. As such, certain BattleChip rewards for Game 1 and 2 can be missed.

Whether Paulie will appear in the Red Sun / Blue Moon Tournament, and which rewards will be given by the WaterGod Program, are both determined at the start of the game. Therefore, the player has no control over this and getting the chips below is simply up to luck. Additionally, Paulie cannot appear in both Game 1 and 2.
