The '''''GameCube System Menu''''' is the top-level menu interface of the [[GameCube]] game console, allowing the player to load discs. change settings, and manage up to two memory cards at once. To access these features, the player must either hold A on controller 1, have no disc inserted, or have the lid open as the GameCube logo animates.

Dolphin does not include the ''GameCube System Menu'' by default, and it doesn't need it; it is able to launch games straight from the Dolphin GUI. However, the System Menu is fully functional; it can load discs. To do so, right click a Gamecube game on the Dolphin GUI and select Swap Disc.
