On the root of the disc, there are a few files for a Windows executable, where you can run the game on a PC. It comes filled with a bunch of debugging features. And best of all, it's possible to have it run in any modern machine! For a guide on how to do so, read the notes page.

Hey, that's pretty interesting. Wonder if it'll run in WINE.
Reminds me of some talk (I think) I heard about Pikmin the other day on Dolphin's IRC channel. Looks like shuffle2 was involved as well. I might try this some time.

Yes, we discussed this a few days ago on irc.
Incredible. This blew my mind.
I just sat at my desk for five minutes going "Wow. Why. Wow." whilst reading that linked wiki.
Gotta try this out sometime, that's so radical.
heh, I wonder how many other games have some weird pc-related debugging stuff hidden in it, aside from games that already have pc ports like halo or XIII etc..
I gotta try this when I get home

Seems to work just fine here. Don't even need to track down the old debug C runtime DLL.

@RachelB - Good. Thought I was making things up for a second
@Toad King - That's sweet.
someone should upload this to youtube. This is pretty legit, though functionally useless indeed.
