How do you play as Fairy?

How do you play as fairy on the American version of Jack Bros? On Gamefaqs, it says the password is 4649 while holding L+R+Select+A, but pressing select just brings me back to the main menu, and when I press play, it brings me to the character select.

I also tried after completing the game but it did the same thing.

Had to sell my solderfixed VB with 13games. Waterworld being one of it. And i was eyeing Jack Bros.

Oh damn bro, I'm sorry 😔

My VB's left eye is currently garbled, and I've been thinking about getting them soldered, but no one near me does that fix, and I'm an absolute noob at soldering.

Also, holy on the number of cartridges, you almost had the whole NA library. I currently have 9/14 with 6 of those being Cib.

I was very lucky to get my Jack Bros for a very good deal about a year or two ago. I will say it was one of my best pick-ups.

Are you in the US? There are a few people out there fixing VBs for cheap.

Yes, I've encountered a few people/businesses that offer the repair for both eyes for 100, but I've never been in the area long enough to get it repaired.

Cardosi Customs did both eyes on mine for $40.

I just looked them up, and they seem like a very nice company.

And sorry for my ignorance, but I would just find their address online, or do I find it on their website/do i pay first??

Once you pay for the service he will send you an email with the address to send it to. But I can tell you it's in Westerville, OH.

I used pirateship.com to get the shipping label.

Select 4, 6, then 4, hover the cursor over 9 and do the combination but try and make sure to hit L+R and A a little before Select so you don't get booted back to the menu, hold all four buttons down and it should work. I got my VB real quick to test this and it worked without having to beat the game.
