TWiLight Menu++ is an open-source DSi Menu replacement/upgrade for Nintendo DS, DSi, 3DS/2DS, and DS flashcards, written in C++. It provides themed UIs to launch DS, DSi, and GBA games, plus retro console games via add-on emulators.
Use cases
- replace the DSi home menu with a customizable launcher
- launch DS and DSi ROMs from an SD card on 3DS
- run GBA games on DS/DSi hardware
- boot homebrew and retro games from a DS flashcard
- customize themes, boot splashes, and fonts on a DS console
- play retro console games via emulator add-ons
When to choose
- you want a modern, actively maintained menu/gaming frontend for DSi, 3DS/2DS, or flashcards
- you need to launch DS, DSi, and GBA titles from one interface
- you want theming, box art, cheats, and add-on emulator support
When to avoid
- you only want a single-purpose emulator rather than a full menu system
- your console has no custom firmware or homebrew entrypoint
- you need a PC-based DS emulator instead of on-device homebrew
