Patapon 2

Please elaborate.
Having more detail is always a good thing.
Specifically: Describe the Debug Menu options better and talk about the six unused eggs.

Patapon 2 brings more fun rhythmic drumming in this sequel to the original Patapon.

A remastered version was released in 2020 for PS4, and a bundle of this game and its predecessor was re-released in enhanced form as part of Patapon 1+2 Replay for PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch (yes, you read that correctly).

Debug Menu#

While the player is in Patapolis, enter Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, L, R quickly. If entered correctly, a sound will play. Then, the player should be able to press Square to gain access to the debug menu in Patapolis or Square and L to access it during a mission. This only works in the European version of Patapon 2.

Patapolis#

  • MISSION - Go to any mission or boss. The player can also edit mission flags here.
  • ADD - Add items, units, miracles or ka-chings to the player's inventory.
  • SAMPLE - Go to any minigame, get all the tips, and rename your player.
  • SET SIMPLE DEBUG - Add a new option to MISSION called "ENABLE BOSS DEBUG".
  • DEBUG MENU LOCK - Closes the menu until the player re-enters the code.

In Mission#

  • FORCE END - Gives you options to end the current mission - showing the results screen, losing and winning.
  • CHANGE WEATHER A - Choose between SHINY, RAINY, STORMY or STORM. Aside from STORM, each of these can be 0, 1 or 2.
  • CHANGE WEATHER B - Select FOG or SAND, which can be set to 0 through 3. CATACLYSMIC may also be chosen, which causes all the effects at once.
  • START MIRACLE - Start the selected miracle.
  • ENABLE ALL SOUND COMMAND - Get all of the commands.
  • DEBUG MENU LOCK - Closes the menu until the player re-enters the code.
