Cleared Game
Beat the game and start a new one using your cleared data. You can play through again with all of items and money you earned the first time through as well as the option to choose a new party leader.
New Game Bonus
First, you need to beat the game and start a new game using the cleared data on your memory card. You can play through the game again with all of the items and money (Minus any armor or runes you had equipped to your party during the final battle) you earned the first time through, and you also gain the option to choose a new party leader. This person will replace Hero IV as your on-screen character in the field.
Stay on the Island
On the deserted island after the ship is wrecked you can convince your party members to stay on the island and live there. Eventually they will agree and you will become stuck on the island. The character portraits will also be different. Note: This will end your game so have a saved game before deciding to stay.
Deserted Island
If you are trying to collect all 108 stars of destiny then you'd better listen to this. Finding the island would be a difficult task if you didn't know where it was. Just head west of Nay and always look to the ship's right. After you sail for awhile you will see land. Head towards it and you will be back at the island. Coming here will enable you to get two new characters. Good luck with the other 106.
Another way to find the deserted island is to look in the Suikoden 4 handbook that shows a map of all the islands. Just look for the Kingdom of Obel (it's the largest island in the picture), go northwest to find Mordo island, finally look at the map to see the island northwest of Mordo island and you'll see the deserted island.
Easy Money
Want to level up your characters' weapon or buy better armor? Instead of defeating a lot of enemies for a quick buck, stock up on crystals/pearls at the various trade stands on the different islands talk to the guy by the trading stand in Nal-nal Harbor. He will most likely tell you that one of the items is being sold for tons of money. After he does, sell which ever item is mentioned and you can make up to 340,000 potch at a time especially if it is pearls!
Steal the Kings Clothes
Some point in the game after you get your headquarters out to sea go to lin en kuedos room and search the closets in there you will find the fancy garbs. At the end of the game when the king is going back to Obel Flare he will look for his clothes and will not find them. So the king will wear his normal clothes instead of the fancy garbs because you stole them.
Big Money With Ancient Crab
To get big money you must have two things. You need to have Noah your support character and one of your party members need to have the prosperity rune equiped. Go to the deserted island and battle the Ancient Crab. When you defeat it you'll 30% more potch because of Noah which will come up to 32,500 potch. But because you have the prosperity rune, it dubles the amount of potch you get to a whomping 65,000 potch. Now you can but armor, upgrade weopons, or just spend it how you like.
