PS2/Wii version

In this version, Sun Medals are obtained every time you complete a Night Stage's set objective for the first time, and Moon Medals every time you complete a Day Stage's set objective for the first time:

• In a Night Stage Act, the objectives are to finish the level within a set time, to collect at least a set number of Rings and to get at least a certain ammount of Dark Gaia Force;
• In a Day Stage Act, the objectives are to finish the level within a three gradually decreasing set times;
• In both Night and Day Stage Missions, the objective is to simply clear the mission;
• In both Night and Day Stage Bosses, the objective is to beat the respective boss;

The Sun and Moon Medals serve to unlock the Item Doors at every Gaia Gate, so they are required to complete the game, as the last obtainable mission (in Adabat) requires you to get all Secret Items, so you need all the Item Doors that contain them. Also, even if you don't complete the last level, most Secret Missions are also obtained in the Gaia Gates.
