The Wii Startup Menu was a semi-stub System Menu title used to install updates on early kiosk demo Wiis, using a disc known as the "Wii Startup Disc". This disc contained a system update for the console, seemingly originally intended to be shipped with retail launch Wii units. While there exist large amounts of evidence for its existence, the physical disc remains lost. However, as some early Wiis shipped with the Startup Menu but no Startup Disc, a NAND dump of the menu has been recovered.
Problems
"Checking Disc" loop
When no disc is inserted, the menu continually changes to the "Checking Disc" screen, then back to the "Please insert..." screen. The menu functions normally once a disc is inserted.
