Alternate Versus Points method[edit]
The ability to link the Sega Dreamcast version of Capcom vs. SNK with the Neo Geo Pocket Color version of SNK vs. Capcom: Match of the Millenium allows you to transfer Versus Points back and forth between the two games. It just so happens that there is a way to get 5000 points in SvC: MotM instantly, but you must have access to a second NGPC, and a copy of SNK vs. Capcom: Card Fighters Clash with all 300 cards available. If you link a completed game of SvC: CFC to SvC: MotM, you will unlock every hidden fighter and gain 5000 vs. Points. You may then transfer those points to the CvS. Then erase the save file in SvC: MotM and link it to SvC: CFC to get those 5000 points back, and repeat the process.
