Get out of a pit
Infinite Suitcases

In some areas throughout the game, there are places where various things
you destroy to find suitcases regenerate, so you can shoot them again.
Take advantage of these to give all your fighters maximum power-ups.
The best places to do this are the areas with pipes in your way (near
the end of area 3 and in the sewers of area 5).
Get out of a pit
Sent in by Niloy + Rahul Dasgupta
If you are right in the middle of the game and about to fall into a
pit, press Start. Now, while holding the jump button (A) press start
again to get an extra boost out of the pit and save your life. Also,
it is wise to play with a second player, so if your character is about
to get killed, you can press start, eliminate that player, and as soon
as the danger has passed, you can enter him in the game. Warning: This
will cause your character to lose any loose suitcases that he is storing.
