Gotcha Force: 20th Force Bug Demo and Tutorial

This is a tutorial video about the 20th Force Bug in the GameCube game, Gotcha Force. It's a strange glitch that allows you to change one borg into a different borg, by manipulating the placement of borgs inside the Gotcha Box. It's considered a dangerous bug because your file could get messed up, so be careful using it.

Here are the steps to use the bug originally posted in English by Kano_Yugoro of GameFAQs:
1:Create a new gotcha force file on a memory card.
2:Go into force edit mode.
3:Take the normal ninja and put it on the 3rd,10th,11th, and 12th force.
4:Then go to the 20th force, and put G-red on the 23rd slot
5:Put the revolver gunman on the 15th slot.
6: go to an empty area on the gotcha box.
7: Hit A, you will hear a gotcha borg pickup sound.
8:Place this "invisible" borg on the normal ninja in the gotcha box.

-Here is where things get really screwy.

9: Borgs will appear in wierd areas.
10: Push B, and release the invisible borg.
11: Now on the 20th force, grab the normal ninja in the 24th slot.
12: Place that normal ninja where the g-red is in the 15th slot.
13: The 15th g-red should now be "grabbed"
14: press B to release this g-red.
15: Press A on an empty gotcha box space to pick up another invisible borg.
16: Move the cursor over the arrow ninja in the gotcha box, and hit A.
17: That arrow ninja should now be Galactic emperor.
18: Push B, and release that invisble borg.

By editing step #3, you can get different borgs. For example, place Normal Ninja on the 2nd, 4th, 6th, 10th and 11th Force, and the end result will be the secret borg, G Black. You can do this to get all sorts of borgs, not just secret ones, here are the other borgs I used in this video:
2nd, 4th ,7th ,10th ,11th = Bug Witch
3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th, 12th = Death Eye
1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 10th, 11th = Cyber Machine GENBU
Check the message board at GameFAQs for more ways to get other borgs and more info concerning the bug:

This bug was originally found by the community at GF Wiki, a Japanese Wikipedia community for Gotcha Force:

Browsing their archives, I found an HTML file that fully explains the details of the bug, and how to utilize it fully. However, the detailed analysis is completely in Japanese and although I have learned a lot by studying it, I doubt I'll be able to use it well without translating it. I uploaded the HTML file to my webspace:

@marbzis I can play as most of them but I can't move and when I get hit he get's stuck in the getting hit animation.

IMPORTANT!

Gamefaqs has a guide/FAQ dedicated to this glitch, with all the known Borg Codes, and how to do the glitch.

Some borgs you obtain from this may glitch or freeze the game. If you try to create a borg and it freezes the game try doing the glitch with completely different borgs. (I have 2 gold heroes. 1 of them, wheni try to use it for the glitch, it freezes. The other one works perfectly fine, even though it's exactly the same as the other.)

Vote up so more people can see this!

@oracasrulz This does work on the Wii as well. There is a good chance of it messing with your gotcha force file though. (My one file can't collect new borgs if the box is full, and also if the box is full and i'm in the warehouse, it doesn't turn off the option to put a borg into the box. I keep accidentally deleteing stuff because of it.) Be careful, and do it on a new file on a spare memory card if you have one.

@CuzJesusLuvdMe Different code should do it. 1 code will give you control over the options the player using Machine Blue (Which is the version you tried.) while one code gives you the ability to move and shoot and slash and stuff (Which is the version you should be using.) I have 2 Genbu's that i can use myself. I'd reccomend checking the FAQ section on Gamefaqs for the specific code.

[marbzis]

@SlyCooper92 Yes, though your file may not be able to load them properly. I have 2 Cyber Machine Genbu's (1 that's gold too.) i can play as. Though i can't get a Cyber Death Dragon without freezing the game. Your file may not be able to load certain ones so try the codes for all of the versions of the borg you want.

[marbzis]

@happerextreme It should Be 4 and 9, i think, Gamefaqs has a guide with all the codes in it.
