Most of the functions here appear to be named after certain programmers who worked on ''Melee'': HANYU after Akio Hanyu, OTOGURO after Seiji Otoguro, TANIGUTI after Yoshiya Taniguchi, NAGASIMA after Yasuyuki Nagashima, KIM after Kim Sung-Kwen, SAKODA after Katsuhiro Sakoda, and SUGANO after Takayuki Sugano.
Most of the functions here appear to be named after certain programmers who worked on ''Melee''. It is unclear if the options within each menu pertain directly to each developer, but it does seem that each menu has closely related options. For instance, OTOGURO contains options pertaining to trophies and Melee records, while KIM contains introductory scene options, especially for single player mode.

The debug menu in Super Smash Bros. Melee.

The debug menu is an element of development that was accidentally left in Super Smash Bros. Melee. Within the menu, the player has control over almost all aspects of the game, including unplayable characters, unplayable and special stages, special CPU behaviors, and more. In order to get to the debug menu, an Action Replay device must be used.

Stages

Debug Name Stage Name In-Game Usage Description
DUMMY None- Debug Menu Only A debug stage that crashes the game when trying to load it, although use of action replay codes can force the stage to load. The stage itself is totally black, with one invisible platform in the middle. The stage has no blast lines, so characters will fall forever.
TEST None- Debug Menu Only A debug stage that features oddly shaped platforms and a low resolution picture of a bar as the background. It is unusually long.
IZUMI Fountain of Dreams Playable Stage
PSTADIUM Pokémon Stadium Playable Stage
CASTLE Princess Peach's Castle Playable Stage
KONGO Kongo Jungle Playable Stage
ZEBES Brinstar Playable Stage
CORNERIA Corneria Playable Stage
STORY Yoshi's Story Playable Stage
ONETT Onett Playable Stage
MUTE CITY Mute City Playable Stage
RCRUISE Rainbow Cruise Playable Stage
GARDEN Jungle Japes Playable Stage
GREATBAY Great Bay Playable Stage
SHRINE Temple Playable Stage
KRAID Brinstar Depths Playable Stage
YOSTER Yoshi's Island Playable Stage
GREENS Green Greens Playable Stage
FOURSIDE Fourside Playable Stage
INISHIE1 Mushroom Kingdom Playable Stage
INISHIE2 Mushroom Kingdom II Playable Stage
AKANEIA None- Debug Menu Only A stage that crashes the game when trying to load it. There is no known code that can force it to load. It is believed to be a Fire Emblem stage because the music used to represent the Fire Emblem characters has the file name "akaneia.hps".
VENOM Venom Playable Stage
PURA Poké Floats Playable Stage
BIGBLUE Big Blue Playable Stage
ICEMT Icicle Mountain Playable Stage
ICETOP None- Debug Menu Only An unused stage that crashes when trying to load it, although use of action replay codes can force the stage to load. The stage is believed to have been the "top" of Icicle Mountain. However, forcing it to load reveals that it is now just a clone of Icicle Mountain without music.
FLATZONE Flat Zone Playable Stage
OLD PPP Past Stages: Dream Land Playable Stage
OLD YOSH Past Stages: Yoshi's Island Playable Stage
OLD KONG Past Stages: Kongo Jungle Playable Stage
BATTLE Battlefield Playable Stage

7PSTADIUM Pokémon Stadium Adventure Mode A clone of Pokémon Stadium used in Adventure Mode. The player fights a horde of Pokémon here, primarily Pikachu but also including Jigglypuff and Pichu if they are unlocked.
8-1BBROUTE F-Zero Grand Prix Adventure Mode A side-scrolling stage used in Adventure Mode. Crossing the finish line ends the match. This stage is also used in Event #33: "Lethal Marathon".
8-2MUTECIT Mute City Adventure Mode A clone of Mute City used in Adventure Mode. The player fights Captain Falcon here.
9-1ONETT Onett Adventure Mode A clone of Onett used in Adventure Mode. The player fights a team of 3 Ness here.
10-1ICEMT Icicle Mountain Adventure Mode A vertical scrolling stage used in Adventure Mode. The game freezes when the player would fight the Ice Climbers.
10-2 None- Debug Menu Only An unused stage, presumably meant to be a second part to the Ice Climber stage in Adventure Mode. It is functionally the same as ICETOP: it crashes the game when trying to load it, the same code can be used to prevent the crash, and it is just a clone of Icicle Mountain without music.
11-1BATTLE Battlefield Adventure Mode A clone of Battlefield used in Adventure Mode. The player fights a horde of Fighting Wire Frames here. The stage's gravity has been noticeably reduced.
11-2BATTLE Battlefield Adventure Mode A clone of Battlefield used in Adventure Mode. The player fights Metal Mario (and Metal Luigi if unlocked) here. Plays Metal Battle music.

HOMERUN Home-Run Stadium Stadium The stage Home-Run Contest takes place in. It extends almost infinitely to the right, but oddly, it has an upper blast line. Also, after 800 feet, the game will stop loading floor and background textures. This is because the trigger for the load is the Sandbag crossing a trigger line a little before the 800 feet mark.
HEAL All-Star Rest Area All-Star Mode The rest area from All-Star Mode.

CPU Modes

Debug Name Description
CPTP_STAY The default CPU mode for Training Mode (Denoted "Stand"). The CPU will not move except to recover. It will occasionally use a ledge attack.
CPTP_WALK A standard CPU mode used in Training Mode (Denoted "Walk"). The CPU will walk back and forth across the stage.
CPTP_ESCAPE A standard CPU mode used in Training Mode (Denoted "Evade"). The CPU actively avoid interaction with the player.
CPTP_JUMP A standard CPU mode used in Training Mode (Denoted "Jump"). The CPU will constantly single jump.
CPTP_NORMAL A standard CPU mode used in both Versus Mode and Training Mode (Denoted "Attack"). The CPU behaves normally, throwing out attacks and maneuvers.
CPTP_MANUAL A standard CPU mode used in Training Mode (Denoted "Human"). The CPU is controlled by the other 3 controllers.
CPTP_NANA The default mode for the partner Ice Climber, so that he/she follows the leader, attacks with the leader, etc.
CPTP_DEFENSIVE Causes the CPU to only use defensive tactics, such as shields and rolls.
CPTP_STRUGGLE Causes the CPU to attack the nearest opponent, regardless of whether they are a human or a CPU. This is different from normal CPU behavior because a normal CPU will dedicate its attention to human opponents, unless a CPU stands between it and a human, or if there are no human opponents in the match.
CPTP_FREAK Causes the CPU to stay where they are, but attack when an opponent comes near. Used in Event 6: Kirbys on Parade.
CPTP_COOPERATE Causes the CPU to follow the player and attack them.
CPTP_SPLWLINK Cause the CPU to only use their down special move when set to Link and Samus respectively. They are used in Event 3: Bomb-fest. "SPLW" is an abbreviation of "Special Low", which reflects that the character only uses their down (or "low") special.
CPTP_SPLWSAMUS
CPTP_ONLYITEM Causes the CPU to only use items, as opposed to using any other attacks, as Jigglypuff does in Event 37: Legendary Pokémon.
CPTP_EVZELDA Causes Zelda to transform into Sheik more often, as she does in Event 9: Hide 'n' Sheik. It is presumed to stand for "Event Zelda".
CPTP_NOACT Causes the CPU to do absolutely nothing. This is not to be confused with Stand, in which the CPU will still attempt to recover if knocked off.
CPTP_AIR Restricts the CPU's jumping height. This does not affect the height gained by the character's up special move, meaning that this mode has far more of an effect on aerial play than it does on the character's recovery.
CPTP_ITEM Causes the CPU to attempt to grab all items that appear. Otherwise, the CPU is normal. This is used for CPUs in event matches like Event 7: Pokémon Battle.

  • 0: Unknown
  • 1: Unknown

GLOBAL DATA EDIT

Used for editing global memory information. All values in this menu are in hexadecimal.

ADDR4, ADDR2 and ADDR are the memory addresses. They are all linked (they cannot have different values), but ADDR4 goes up by 4, ADDR2 goes up by 2, and ADDR goes up by 1.

U32, U16, and U8 are the values assigned to the memory address specified by the ADDR fields. They are also linked, but differently. The first 2 digits of U16 and U32 are always the same as U8, and similarly, the first 4 digits of U32 are always the same as U16. U32 is a hexadecimal representation of an unsigned 32 bit integer, U16 is a hexadecimal representation of an unsigned 16 bit integer, and U8 is a hexadecimal representation of an unsigned 8 bit integer.

MODE TEAM TEST

Most of the functions here appear to be named after certain programmers who worked on Melee. It is unclear if the options within each menu pertain directly to each developer, but it does seem that each menu has closely related options. For instance, OTOGURO contains options pertaining to trophies and Melee records, while KIM contains introductory scene options, especially for single player mode.
