Misprints

Not a misprint, but poor planning. Both releases have the NFL hologram decal applied to the case, and not the manual. Pulling the manual out reveals the “PLACE DECAL HERE” marker for the hologram.

There has been a miscut factory error brought to light from I Am Error.

Secrets

Like every other Midway arcade game around this time, NFL Blitz 2000 is full of Versus Screen codes. Let’s get to it!

Versus Codes

At the Versus Screen, you will see 3 NFL Shapes under your team helmet. These symbols represent the Code Activation tumbler sequence for the hidden cheats. Each symbol is tied to the buttons on the arcade panel (or game console controller). In order the 1st symbol is the Turbo Button, the 2nd symbol is Jump, and the 3rd symbol is Pass.

There are 6 symbols that can appear, in order:

0 – NFL Logo
1 – Midway Logo
2 – Player Face
3 – Down marker
4 – Cheerleader
5 – Trophy

To activate a Cheat, you will need to press each button the corresponding amount of times and then press the directional pad in the appropriate direction. For example, if you wanted the Super Field Goals Cheat (1-2-3-Left), you would press Turbo 1 time, Jump 2 times, Pass 3 times, and press Left at the end. You would see a Midway Logo, Player Face, and a Down Marker as confirmation.
