Hidden Silver Xbox
In the bottom of the Statue of Liberty across from the Test of Valor. You have to slice what it looks like to be bamboo curtain.

What it does in NGII is heal you, which you can do as many times as you like. It'll also make a sound from part of the 360's start up intro.

Yellow Essence Exploit (Chapter Six)
This exploit works during the sixth chapter, entitled The Lycanthropes’ Castle. After you fight the Giant Skeleton miniboss, you will be thrust into a battle with more Scorpion Skeletons. Fight them and wall run up to the next floor thereafter. Then, drop back down, fight them again, and repeat this process as much as you’d like for an infinite number of Yellow Essence.

Yellow Essence Exploit (Chapter Two)
Here's a great way to farm Yellow Essence during chapter two. After ridding the bridge you encounter of all of the archers and acquiring the Crystal Skull there, you will have to continue down another wooden path. This will lead to a pair of chasms that you have to swing over to get to the save point. Below that is a lower walkway full of enemies. Kill them all, and then scale a nearby ladder to reach the upper area again. When you go back down, the enemies will have respawned. You can kill them again to grab their Yellow Essence, climb back up, jump back down, repeating this ad infinitum to get all the Yellow Essence you want.

Yellow Essence Exploit (Chapter One)
The following yellow essence exploit can be completed on the game’s very first chapter, and is especially useful when playing on Master Ninja difficulty. Before and after crossing the bridge, you’ll deal with enemy ninjas (it’s the bridge where the first God of Life and a treasure chest can be found). After you cross the bridge, defeating ninjas as you go, head towards the middle alley that brings out two more ninjas on foot and another two ninja archers. Run back and charge up to Ultimate Level 2. Continue to run back and forth, and the ninjas will keep respawning and coming at you. If you have the skill, getting away with $40,000 while having 50%-75% of your health still available to you is a possibility.

Easter Egg: Prototype Xbox
About midway through Chapter 4, in the artifact room at the base of the Statue of Liberty, locate the nearby save point. Diagonally across from where the Save Point is, and directly to the right of the scroll on the podium, there is a false wall you can break apart. Inside, there will be a silver Xbox that regenerates Ryu's health.

Easter Egg: DOA4 Reference
In the game’s third chapter, you will be on the streets of New York. Near the beginning of the chapter, you will drop down into a sewer and fight there for a while. When you reemerge back on the streets from your brief sewer battle, an alley with a treasure chest at the end of it can be found. Right next to the chest is a building that says DOATEC in huge letters. DOATEC is the evil corporation that you do battle against in another Tecmo game, Dead or Alive 4.
