 |     Well, I'm pissed off.  This (Bubble Bobble) is one of my
 |all-time favourite games, I've played it for 6-7 years, and only
 |last week did I find out about the secret move for getting
 |permanent rapid-fire and movement speed.
 |
 |     Are there any other tricks I should know about?

There are some tricks.  I cannot remember all of them, but ...

BJBJBJRP
LJLPLBLP
(B:bubble, J:Jump, L:Left, R:Right, P:1P)

are the 2 of them.  And these tricks are available in "RAINBOW
ISLAND".  

 |     And what on earth does it mean when the screen flashes and
 |there's a quick "de-doo-de-doo" at the beginning of a round?
 |I never figured that out.

After you get a bell as a special item,  if you can get a special item
like Thunder, Fire, Flood and so on, the screen flashes at the
beginning.

I wish you luck.

Try this command while "Bubble Bobble" title is shown.
(Be aware not insert coins !!)

A) If you try 'BJBJBJRP',,,,

If succeed, you can find string like 'ORIGINAL GAME' colored blue on
the last line of display. Then, insert coin, and game start. So you
can find 'Silver door' on the floor 20, 30, 40th. If entered, you can
get lots of diamonds (10000pts !!) and skip 21, 31, 41th floor.
And, at 50th floor, you can find 'Golded door'. If entered, you warp
to 71th floor !!

*ATTENTIONS*

'Silver door' and 'Golded door' is not a tricks. If you make no loose
of your player and reached to 20, 30, 40, 50th floor, the same things
happend.

B) If you try 'LSLPLBLP',,,,

If succeed, you can find string like 'POWER UP !!' colored red on the
last line of display. Then insert coin, and game start. So you found
that player has permanent rapid-fire and movement speed.

If you want to user 'BJBJBJRP' trick and 'LSLPLBLP' trick,,,

0) Wait until title 'Bubble Bobble' is shown.
1) Enter command 'BJBJBJRP', and see 'ORIGINAL GAME' is shown.
2) Wait until title 'Bubble Bobble' is shown again.
3) Then enter command 'LSLPLBLP', and see 'POWER UP !!' is shown.
4) Insert coin, and game start !!

-----

Bubble Bobble has another tricks.

If you cleared 100th floor with 2 players, new Bobble Bobble world
is shown to you.

Like 'BJBJBJRP' tricks, if you want to play the new world, try

	'PJBLRJPR'

command. You found title changes to 'Super Bubble Bobble'. If you
cleared 100th floor of 'Super Bubble Bobble' with 2 players, this is
the 'TRUE' ending of this game.

I wish you good luck.
