A pause screen likely meant to be used by developers... Or just an early pause menu. It hides the HUD, lets you use an infinite amount of Simoleons*, and best of all - allows you to build in Town Square! Once enabled and paused, you cannot exit the menu, requiring the additional codes to manually enable and disable this option. If this code is enabled and a popup box shows up in-game while not paused yet, the game may softlock.

* Instead of keeping the amount of Simoleons unchanged like enable_free_items, it gives you the amount that you spent instead.

R3 + UP / DOWN enables and disables it on PlayStation 2.
Z + UP / DOWN enables and disables it on GameCube.
C + UP / DOWN enables and disables it on Wii.

Selecting the shops in Town Square.

Wii	`00495610 00000001`	—	`00495350 00000001`

To accompany the previous option above this, none of the already pre-set Town Square objects are moveable by default. This option will "solve" that little issue as well.

`disable_pet_wants_balloons`

If enabled allow pets to have a wants panel in HUD:

	EUR	KOR	USA

Wii	`00495607 00000001`	—	`00495347 00000001`
