• EDIT doesn't work in the international versions.
• Tutorial plays the tutorial stage.
• Quick Start sends you into a new game without the opening cinematic.
• Test (JP only) sends you in-game with a lot of items on your island.

The international versions of this game removed the EDIT option in the main menu, and removed Test as well. A hack was applied to the USA version to re-enabled EDIT in-game at anytime by pressing certain buttons listed below.

Known controller one inputs:

• L3 to bring up debug info. This only works when not at the main menu.

• L2 to enter edit mode (USA only).
• R2 to enter battle mode (USA only).
• R3 to return to normal state (USA only).
