Miscellaneous

A debug menu exists in Metroid II: Return of Samus. It allows some game items to be obtained, and change beams, via a very simplistic menu via pausing the game (with the debug menu flagged). There's also a feature that lets you save anywhere, by pushing Select while paused. After pushing select, the game will resume, without sound. Push Start twice to return to normal. This RAM cheat can access that menu.
