They almost NEVER come with everything. But PM isn't hard to figure out:
control sitck = walk, move through menu
a= jump, select menu
b= hammer, cancel menu
c-up= stat bar
c-left= items
c-right= partners
c-down= use partners' abilities
l & r= not used
z= spin dash (sure do miss it in PM2)
Everthing's pretty much like PM2, except you don't do stylish moves, get 2 of the same badge (except deep focus & HP/FP plus, etc.)
You have limits to max levels in PM1.
You use Super Blocks (yellow frame cubes with blue spheres) to level up partners (hit one and level one up)
No shop points
Most everthing else is explained in-game.
It''s in a better place, Strong Bad. Or rather, it''s in the same place but now it''s got a big hole through it.
