The JP version patches-in a jump to the menu display function (instruction j 0x80040720). The US and EU versions, besides patching-in their corresponding jumps (j 0x8003e7e4 and j 0x8003e9b0), also require an existing menu label rendering function call to be overriden (jal 0x800a8934 and jal 0x800a8c08). This is due to a bug in the original instruction that calls the rendering function used for Shift-JIS text, which doesn't render ASCII characters besides the newline.
| JP Text | JP Translation | US/EU Text | JP Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 戦闘マップ | Battle Map | BATTLE | Select battle map. |
| フォントOFF | Font OFF | FONT OFF | Doesn't work. |
| デバッグモード | Debug Mode | DEBUG MODE | Toggle ON/OFF. |
| イベントマップ | Event Map | IVENT MAP | Select event map. |
| ゲームスタート | Game Start | GAME START | Crash the game. |
| ユニット種類選択 | Select Unit Type | UNIT SELECT | Select from number. |
| セレクトB | Select B | SELECT B | Unknown. |
In the US/EU versions, only the BATTLE entry is functional. The other entries seem to have been stripped out, since the menu display function lacks any references to sub-menu texts used by these same entries in the JP version.
 | This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Check if there's any dead code for other menu handlers in US/EU versions. |
Battle Map Text
The BATTLE entry opens a paginated sub-menu (use arrow keys for navigation), containing the following Shift-JIS text (present in SLUS_004.47 at 0x353C):
