Dolphin does not include the ''GameCube Main Menu'' by default, and it doesn't need it; it is able to launch games straight from the Dolphin GUI. However, the GameCube Main Menu is fully functional and even capable of launching games. | Dolphin does not include the ''GameCube Main Menu'' by default, and it doesn't need it; it is able to launch games straight from the Dolphin GUI.

To access the menu, you must first dump a copy of IPL.bin from your console; then disable "Skip BIOS", load any GameCube game, and hold A as the GameCube logo animates. Unlike the [[Wii Menu]], there is no way to directly boot to the menu. | To access the menu, you must first dump a copy of IPL.bin from your console; then disable "Skip BIOS", load any GameCube game, and hold A as the GameCube logo animates.

=== Savestates/GameINIs/Cheats Do Not Work === | |||
Due to how Dolphin works, Dolphin only recognizes the first thing loaded as the game that is being played. For example, if you load [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] from the Game List, and then change disc and load [[Super Mario Sunshine]], the game settings from the GameINI, cheats, and even any savestates you make will be for Melee and not Sunshine. There is no solution at this time, although [[Action Replay]] would allow you to use Action Replay cheat codes only, but only what is available on-disc or on the memory card. | |||
