The [[★ Debug Settings|Debug Settings]] (''stylized as'' [[★ Debug Settings]]) describes additional preferences in the Settings Menu, which are only avaiable on [[SKU Models Nonretail|Nonretail]] consoles. "★Debug Settings", which is one of the "Settings" items, is provided only for the development machines and includes various features for development support, but with the help of GoldHEN or MiraCFW some options might be available on Retail consoles with various levels of compatibility (most are broken).
The [[★ Debug Settings|Debug Settings]] (''stylized as'' [[★ Debug Settings]]) describes additional preferences in the Settings Menu, which are only avaiable on [[SKU Models Nonretail|Nonretail]] consoles. It is already in use for the [http://www.psdevwiki.com/ps3/DEX_Options PlayStation 3] and gives on both consoles the possibility for developers to debug and examine several tasks, such for [[Game Titles|Games]], Applications & Blu-ray-Authoring (on PlayStation 3).
