Debug Menu#

This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Verify if it´s possible to access the debug mode.

There are some remnants of a debug menu in the SLUS_014.04 file.

Leftovers#

The international versions include some of the Japanese voices for the attacks.

Alternative Colored Characters#

To do: Add codes for the European and Japanese releases.

While not unused, the characters have altered colors for when you play a mirror match. To play a mirror match in 2P VS or CPU VS, hold Select while selecting a Digimon (or its rookie/evolved counterpart) the other player has already selected. The only character that has an altered color visible in 1P mode without cheat codes is Reapermon. For whatever reason, the ability to play mirror matches is not mentioned in the manual. This normally isn't even possible to select an evolved form in the 1P mode at all without cheat codes, using this code will make you able to do so.

Regional Differences#
