In the European version, if the Game Genie code BCTA-RACN is enabled when viewing the debug menu above, extra options will appear. The only menu that seems to function correctly is "INFO CARACTERES", which will show the contents of VRAM.
For the Brazilian version, use the Game Genie code BCTA-RAEW instead. This version expanded debug menu does have a couple of differences compared to the European version, notably the "EPILEPSIE" option which triggers the scene where Brainy Smurf advices to take a break after a long gaming session. By inserting the new "EPILEPSIE" option where "INFO CARACTERES" was in the European version and moving the subsequent options one row below they originally were (this also party overlaps "INFO CARACTERES" by the presets of the "JOYSTICK" setting), the "RESET" function ended up being removed in the Brazilian version.
