The ''''' Wii Startup Menu'''''  was a System Install Menu (Stub System Menu) used for the Wii in kiosk demos. It came with a disc containing a system update for the console, seemingly intended to be shipped with the launch Wii units. While there exist large amounts of evidence for its existence, the physical disc remains unfound. However, a NAND dump of a console with the startup disc message has been found due to some early Wii's shipping with it accidentally.
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.

The NAND System Menu seems to require IOS4V3, since it's not implemented, it just hangs at a black screen. Dolphin {{revision|4.0}} seems to be able to boot the Menu but lacks support for detecting update partitions, rendering the menu useless.
The Startup Menu uses IOS4v3, which Dolphin currently does not implement, causing it to hang at a black screen. Revisions of Dolphin starting with an unknown revision before 5.0-2712 seem to be able to boot the menu but lack support for detecting update partitions, rendering preservation of the unknown parts of the menu impossible.
