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 single player 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.

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.

If Sandbag is not player 2, the game will stop loading floor and background textures after the 800 feet mark. 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 throughout the game (Denoted "Attack" in Training Mode). 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.

GLOBAL DATA EDIT

The GLOBAL DATA EDIT sub-menu of the debug menu.

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

The MODE TEAM TEST sub-menu of the debug menu.

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.
