* Any time you manage to finish a mission with a special POW (Rumi Aikawa, Hyakutaro Ichimonji, et al.) counted. This is harder than it sounds, because you lose credit for every POW rescued up to that point if you die. Likewise, finishing a stage inside a Metal Slug gives you a big bonus, and it's also harder than it sounds because Slugs get blown up after a few hits and the best way to keep one functional is to keep jumping in and out, and if you are out when you win you won't get the bonus.

* Using the zombie form in the third game against the Monoeyes. The Monoeyes are no pushover ''normally'', but you can take care of multiple of them at once, instantly, with one bloody stream.
* In ''6'', you can take control of Rootmars and use its shockwaves in an optional route. Most of its body is invincible, and you will make the leader of the Mars People obliterate entire swarms of the predators of its kind.
