Gems

Gems are special items in Bomberman 64.
==Description==
They are found in two colors (blue and Red) and appears both in Normal and Battle Mode, each have their own specific uses.
===Normal Mode===
In Normal Mode, they are occasionally dropped by enemies and found hidden in Soft Blocks. They are collected directly by colliding with them, and disappear over the time if not picked up. Every 50 gems collected will give the player an extra Continue.
*Blue Gem: Worth 1 Gem.
*Red Gem: Worth 5 Gems.
===Battle Mode===
In Battle Mode, they appear in Team Battle, and have a totally different use. Both colors represent a Team. In here, the goal is destroy the gems of the other team with Bombs. Gems can also be picked up (a way to protect their own gems) and thrown away (if they are thrown out of the map boundaries, score will not be affected). Only 2 gems can appear at the same time on the battlefield (one for each team). Once a gem of a specific color has been destroyed, or thrown out of the map, another one will respawn at a random point of the map. A Heart may also eventually drop out of it when destroyed. Destroying 5 gems of the other team will result in a win.
It shall also be noted that Bomb blast power when destroying a gem also affects the score:
*Bomb : Worth 1 Gem Point.
*Pumped Bomb: Worth 2 Gem Points.
*Red Bomb : Worth 2 Gem Points.
*Pumped Red Bomb : Worth 3 Gem Points.
