===Debug menu===
{{stub}}
A menu written in Japanese with several debugging features is present in the game. Each option has a value, and pressing the A button will activate the option, with the specified value. The options, in order, display the following:
*Title screen. 0 means the Challenge Mode option won't be visible. 1 means that option is present.
*A set of [[Olimar's Voyage Log|Voyage Log entries]]. Set #19 is untranslated for some reason.
*Save game screen. Its value doesn't seem to do anything.
*A weird screen, possibly used to test, sprites, effects and buttons.
*Memory card warnings. 0 and 1 don't do anything, 2 warns that the card cannot be used. 4 warns that it must be formatted.
*Ship log selection screen.
*Unlocked Voyage Logs. Acts weirdly.
*End of day screen.
*Pause menus. 0 is during a regular adventure, 1 is during challenge mode.
*Final statistics.
*Title screen without background.
