Stage Select?
A button code for a stage select is listed on various sites, but it doesn't work. Currently, no evidence has been found in the programming for such a menu. It needs more investigation. For reference, memory address/Pro Action Replay code holds the stage/cutscene value.

The button code as stated on GameFAQs is The options screen does not check for this code (and in fact, cannot check for a code because the routines to handle button presses for the options screen clears the appropriate bits from the controller input variable). The numeric representation of this button sequence does not appear either as byte or as word, nor does it appear in reverse either as byte or as word. Given the way the game is written, it's very likely any cheat check, should one actually exist, is done manually.

The background color for the options screen is chosen at random. (This tripped me (andlabs) before; I thought it had something to do with the code or with a checksum.)
