Dragon Warrior I & II (Game Boy)

Dragon Warrior I & II is a souped-up compilation of the first two games.

Debug Menu#

Watch on YouTubeA debug menu still exists in the game. It has warp, party edit, sound test and sprite viewing options, among other things. This debug menu has the same setup as Lodoss-tou Senki: Eiyuu Kishiden, Bakuchou Retrieve Master and Command Master.

Enable it with the code 041-7EF-E6A (works with both Japanese and US versions). It will show up immediately after starting. If used on the US ROM, only some of it is legible since the Japanese wasn't translated, and Japanese characters show up as garbage.

Message Debug#

Game Genie code 061-7EF-E6A will start the game in a Message Debug menu different than the one available in the standard debug menu.
