What's the trick and which of the 3 games does it work on?

The trick is that on the select fighter screen you hold down B, then while holding B you press A to select the fighter. This gives you the Slave (or Fairy if the ship highlighted is the Miclus), which has the same movement speed as the ship you highlighted but only has a five-way blaster as it's weapon (which does a lot of damage). It also has a rediculously small hitbox, which makes it in many ways the ultimate ship. That goes double for the Fairy, as the Fairy's bomb does an extreme amount of damage and makes you invincible for the duration.

Thanks. I'll have to try it out.
