Learn how to master the Tokyo Megaplex Showoff in SSX Tricky with this detailed walkthrough, including tips on trick combos, snowflake collection, and exploiting the reset mechanic for high scores.
This section provides a detailed walkthrough for the Tokyo Megaplex Showoff event in SSX Tricky, authored by gondee and featuring Mac as the player character with a recorded score of 2,382,600. The guide emphasizes the importance of filling the TRICKY meter early and frequent use of the reset function due to the track's design requiring many turns.
Walkthrough
- 1Begin by performing small tricks like a 360 and a pre-Misty on the way down the ice tunnel to build boost. Jump early before the first two windfans and perform a Misty. After hitting the windfans, execute two Ubers. Aim for red snowflakes for potentially 200K scores.
- 2Proceed to the Air Tunnel, performing a character Uber and a quick Uber for about 40K. Jump to the upper area with rails, ski left, jump, and perform two more Ubers to fill the Tricky meter upon landing.
- 3In the lower area, use embankments to collect yellow snowflakes on turns. Activate the switch to raise the green ramp, then perform a character Uber through the red into the tunnel below. Press Select upon landing to reset.
- 4After resetting, approach the area with four fans, focusing on the crucial fan behind the others. This fan is key to collecting two red and two orange snowflakes floating above. To get the first red on the left, approach backwards from a 4 o'clock angle, perform a character Uber and a fast Uber. Reset after landing and return to the fan, adjusting your angle for the other snowflakes (5:30 for left orange, 8:30 for right red, 6:30 for second right orange). Perform character Ubers and regular Ubers with flips (back/front, Misty/Rodeo) on each jump. If time is short, collect remaining snowflakes on subsequent laps.
- 5Past this area, hit switches to lower barriers on the left and right turns. Jump off the embankment with a hand-in-hand trick to set up for the next section. A single fan in the middle of the course has an orange and three reds above it, with reds progressively further down the course. Approach the fan from a 6 o'clock angle (straight) for the first two reds, performing character and regular Ubers with flips. For the third red, jump slightly before hitting the fan to be blown further. These can be collected on later laps if missed.
- 6Hit the switch and enter the snow-covered hill tunnel. Use the exit as a ramp to collect three red snowflakes: one on the far left, one in the middle, and one on the far right. Perform two Ubers on each jump.
- 7Take the right path, avoiding rotating barriers, and head for the two windfans under the glass barrier.
Tips:
- The Merqury City Showoff has an exploitable trick: on the final stretch, jump early off the first jump, perform an Uber, and immediately press Select upon landing to reset. Repeat this process. Use the 2x flake on the first jump and the 3x flake on the last jump when time is low.
- In Tokyo Megaplex, prioritize filling your TRICKY meter and be prepared to reset frequently.
- Make stringent use of PD CofC's
