"Congratulations on defeating Dr. Nefarious! At this point, you can time warp back to just before you finished the game with Square, or you can enter Challenge Mode with Circle. In Challenge Mode, you can start a new game against tougher enemies - but all of your experience, weapons, armor, and money will carry over! There are other surprises as well."
