The '''''Wii | The '''''Wii Menu''''', commonly known as the "System Menu", is the top-level menu interface of the [[Wii]] game console, allowing the player to navigate/launch [[Wii Channels|channels]], change settings, access the message board/address book, use the SD card, and [[Disc Channel|load discs]]. The channels are displayed on a 4:3 grid with 4 pages, which the player navigates using the Wii Remote. The grid is customizable; users can move channels (except for the Disc Channel) amongst the menu's 47 customizable slots by pressing and holding the A and B button while hovering over the channel the user wants to move. | ||
Dolphin does not include the ''Wii | Dolphin does not include the ''Wii Menu'' by default, and it doesn't need it; it is able to launch games straight from the Dolphin GUI. However, the menu is fully functional; it can load channels and even discs. For instructions on how to install the ''Wii Menu'', and for help in performing it, see the {{forum|Wii System Menu Tutorial|tid=11957}} on the forums. | ||

For example, if [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] is loaded from the Game List, and use the home menu to go to the Wii Menu, then change disc and load [[Xenoblade Chronicles]], the game settings from the GameINI, cheats, and even any savestates made will be for Brawl and not Xenoblade. There is no solution at this time. | ||

Changing some settings in Wii | Changing some settings in the Wii Menu will ask to accept the EULA again. If the hidden EULA channel isn't installed, it's impossible to accept it and online features of some games won't work. To fix that, get the hidden channel from a game's update partition or from NUS Downloader, install it in Dolphin and then accept the EULA through Wii Menu. | ||

When first loading a Wii | When first loading a Wii Menu in Dolphin, it will appear without any [[Wii Channels|channels]], except for the [[Disc Channel]]. This is because Dolphin doesn't come with channels preinstalled as the Wii does; it's up to the user to install them, using the same process that was used to install the Wii Menu. | ||
