In zack island mode,there are very nice costumes.To get other characters, such as Tina 2 try on the gaia or peridot, you will have to SHOWER HER WITH GIFTS! If this is unsuccessful,(if she throws it in the trash), YOU will still be able to wear the costume. If it IS successful, you will both be able to wear the costume.
Bonus music tracks
You can unlock two hidden music tracks in the game: "How Crazy Are You" (by Meja) and "Is This Love" (by Bob Marley). To obtain them, play through the game once. When you resume that saved game file, these two hidden songs will be available in the Radio Station.
Control ball during spike
Press Left during the spike to spike it short; Right to spike it deep; Up to spike it high (to the top of the screen); or Down to spike it low (to the bottom of the screen). You can do this in a combo (for example, press Down/Right to spike it low and deep.
Detecting bad emotions on the court
During the first few matches with a new teammate, she will compliment you on a good serve or spike. The moment your partner stops giving you kudos, it is time to cheer her up as best as possible. If it is someone you can do without, this is not that important, but otherwise you will need to buy your friend something she will really like to stay in good terms with her. If none of the shops have exactly what you want, go to the Sports Shop and buy a moderately expensive swimsuit. That usually does the trick and usually there is something that she really likes in the shops the next day. Remember, when the two of you break up she will not accept any more gifts from you until the vacation's over.

Ending sequence
Wait for the credits to end to see a extra FMV sequence featuring Zack and the remains of his island.
Finding an easy match
When looking at the selectable courses, look at the profiles of the two characters you are playing against. They seem to follow the same ones from Exhibition mode, where if her head is turned slightly, it indicates that she is less willing to play with the person she is paired with. This often leads to a lot of missed volleys and spikes on their part, making for an easier match and a chance to win more money.
Force replay
Hold L immediately after someone scores.
Get the Venus on all the girls
Only one girl - Lisa - can buy the best suit in the game, but you can give it as a gift to the other girls. Start a new game with Lisa, and pick a teammate. Only send gifts to that girl. Send her less-expensive suits at first, and work your way up slowly to the Venus, or else she'll throw it away if you give it too soon. Give one suit in each price bracket, and try to give the ones that are that girl's favorite color, though they all do accept gifts of a similar color. As an example, Lisa's favorite color is stated as Crimson Red, but she's equally happy with Hot Pink. Neon Orange turns her off.
It's important to keep your teammate happy or she won't accept the more expensive suits, so toss in the smaller items (hats, shoes, volleyballs, foods, etc) to keep their levels up, even if you're on a winning streak...
You might have to play through the game with Lisa a couple or more times to get enough money to buy all the gifts, but only send gifts to that one girl until you can give her the Venus. Even if she throws it away, continue sending her smaller gifts until the end of the game.
Now start a new game and pick the girl you were just sending gifts to as Lisa, and pick Lisa as your partner. Whatever Lisa (you) sent that was thrown away in the previous game will be re-sent by Lisa (computer), and now you can manually choose to accept those gifts, including the Venus and other suits.
Do the same thing with all the other girls. The computer will send the other girls onto the courts wearing the Venus, but it might be a good idea to play at least one game with each girl to delete excess suits from their inventory, because the computer sends suits out to the other girls as well. Sadly, you can't delete all the suits and only leave them with the Venus, but you can certainly make their choices limited.
Another tip: Helena and Christie are both pains in the butt for this trick! You really have to shmooze these two because they are so fickle, and the computer doesn't help by not rotating the inventory to keep a plentiful stock of the colors you need (when trying to get Lisa to send Christie (me) the Venus, all I had for inventory was dark purple suits (Ayane), and Lisa split quickly because I couldn't send her anything she liked).
Helena is just too Goth for her own good - lose a few games and she scrams, and it takes 4 days to get her back if she even comes out in the day. She's also slow about sending good gifts even if you're winning with perfect games (hats, shoes, cheap suits, etc).
Getting Rid Of Rodman's Voice
Go to the Options menu and change Zack's voice to Japanese.
Good serve
In order to receive 1000 points for each serve, make sure that your calibration is adjusted so that it is about 30% (one third of the way from the left of the bar), then press A firmly to throw the ball in the air. Press A firmly again just before the player is about to make contact with the ball. This is very helpful during game play, as you can still get some points even if you lose your match.
Keeping on good terms with your partner
Give your partner their favorite gift in color, type, hobby, or their nationality (one or two gifts). When you wake up in the morning, check the music notes around their head. If only one music note floats up, you are not doing well with your partner. If it is two music notes, then their enthusiasm is pretty good. Three music notes indicates that both of you are getting along very well.
Lock view
When viewing a "Gravure" movie or another camera-controlled angle, click the Right Analog-stick to lock and unlock the desired angle.
Click the Left Analog-stick to lock the view controlled by it in its current position. Zoom to a desired magnification then press X to lock it at that setting.
Moving your partner
If you do not like the position in which your partner is standing during a match, you can move them by using the Right Analog-stick.
Preventing cheap shots
When you are playing a match, and the opposing team spikes the ball so hard that your player receives the ball but hits the ground and the ball flies back over the net, about 90% of the time the opposing team is going to spike that ball at where you are laying. Use the Right Analog-stick to move your partner to the spot where you were standing, so they can bounce it to you while you are getting up, or hit the ball back over the net.
Scoring
When your partner sets you up for a spike, there is an easier way to score. Hold Left Analog-stick Left to make the ball fly closer to the net, so it is harder for the other team to recover. If they try to block your spike, use the same method only use Tap and they will almost never get it.
Selecting a partner
Choose your partners wisely. Try to partner up with girls that have a lot of power; for example, Tina or Hitomi. Then, when you are receiving the ball during game play, try to have them make the first hit upon return, in which case you set them up for a spike using B. Very often, the other players, even if they are blocking, will be knocked down by their enormous spikes.
Skip To Ending
Once you've finished the game once, you will be able to skip to the end of the two weeks with any girl. Go to the Hotel or Poolside menu and select "Leave Tomorrow" to end the game after that night.
Soundtrack change
You can change the music playing at anytime by pressing Black (advance to next track) or White (repeat current track).
Start With More Items
To begin with a ton of items, give a bunch of gifts to a specific lady. Then finish the current game and start a new one (with your old save) and play as the woman you gave gifts to. Whatever she keeps will be in her Item inventory when you begin a game with her.
Toss wisely
While playing the a volleyball game, it is often useful to toss the ball to your partner who may spike it and score a point. However, if you toss the ball to your partner while she is back half way or more from the net, she may try and spike the ball hard and hit the net, causing the other team to get a point.
Unlock Swimsuits For Exhibition
To have more swimsuit choices in Exhibition Mode, buy or acquire suits in the Zack's Island game. Whatever you gain in that game will be available for the Exhibition beach.
