TWiLight Menu++ is an open-source DSi Menu upgrade/replacement & customizable unified interface for the Nintendo DSi, the Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo DS flashcards. It can launch Nintendo DS, DSi Enhanced, DSiWare (only on DSi, except for the latest version of nds-bootstrap, which can play two DSiWare games, even on the DS!) SNES, NES, GameBoy (color), GameBoy Advance, Sega GameGear/Master System & Mega Drive/Genesis ROMs, as well as DSTWO plugins (if you use a DSTWO) and .rvid videos using RocketVideo Technology.
 
It can be used as a frontend for either [[nds-bootstrap]] or supported flashcards.
 
  
==Features==
+
You have a PSVita/PSTV on firmware version 3.60 to 3.73, you can turn it into a decent emulation device by installing the HENkaku homebrew enabler. If you're on the 3.60 firmware, you can obtain it [https://henkaku.xyz henkaku], for 3.65-3.73 use [https://github.com/soarqin/finalhe/releases Final h-encore]. Those on firmware versions prior to 3.60 can update manually by following the instructions [http://wololo.net/2016/08/09/manually-update-ps-vita-firmware-3-60 here]. Furthermore, on versions 3.60 and 3.65 it's possible to use a bootloader patch called Ensō, which loads HENkaku automatically at boot: [https://enso.henkaku.xyz Ensō for 3.60], [https://github.com/TheOfficialFloW/enso/releases Ensō for 3.65]. It's possible to downgrade firmware version with a tool called [https://github.com/TheOfficialFloW/modoru/releases modoru].
  
* Launch DS(i) ROMs from the SD card and/or flashcard, via [[nds-bootstrap]] (comes included with the app)!
+
=Emulators via Adrenaline=
* For flashcards, the flashcard kernel/firmware can optionally be used to boot the games.
 
* Automatic on-the-fly AP-patching! Drag and drop your ROMs onto the SD card, and play, without any additional steps!
 
** The included AP-patches are loaded for a specific game, by nds-bootstrap, and the patching is done in RAM, leaving your original ROM untouched.
 
* Bring the DSi Menu to your DS Phat/lite, by putting TWLMenu++ on a flashcard!
 
* First DS flashcard UI to show animated icons from DSi-Enhanced, DSi-Exclusive, and DSiWare games!
 
* For DSi/3DS/2DS users: Overclock your DS games to 133mhz, faster than normal DS clock speed of 67mhz!
 
* For DSi/3DS/2DS users: Change sound frequency from 32kHz to 48kHz for higher sound quality!
 
* Directly access the following flashcards' microSD cards, and switch to and from there anytime!
 
** Acekard 2i (Games cannot be booted)
 
** R4 Ultra (regular, not R4i) (r4ultra.com)
 
* Set the language to your preference.
 
* Run the last played ROM on TWiLight Menu++ startup.
 
* Play retro games from these consoles:
 
** (Super) GameBoy (Color), via GameYob
 
** NES/Famicom, via nesDS
 
** Sega Master System/Game Gear, via S8DS
 
** Sega MegaDrive/Genesis, via jEnesisDS
 
** Super Nintendo/Famicom, via SNEmulDS
 
* 3DS/2DS users: Play DS games in 16:10 widescreen! Not all games will work with this feature.
 
  
==Installing TWiLight Menu++==
+
Adrenaline is a software that modifies the official PSP Emulator using [https://github.com/yifanlu/taiHEN taiHEN CFW framework] to make it run a PSP 6.61 custom firmware. Thanks to the power of taiHEN, Adrenaline can inject custom code into the IPL which allows unsigned code to run at boottime. (You can able to run PlayStation Portable Homebrews and especially [[Emulators on PSP]] on PSVita via Adrenaline).
TWiLight Menu++ can be used with the DS, DSi, and 3DS from a flashcart. It can also be used on the DSi (with [[Modding_Consoles/Flashcarts#Nintendo_DSi|Unlaunch and/or HiyaCFW]]) by extracting it to the SD card and the 3DS family ([[Modding_Consoles/Flashcarts#3DS|with CFW]]) by using [https://github.com/RocketRobz/TWiLightMenu-Updater/releases TWiLight Menu++ Updater] or [https://github.com/Universal-Team/Universal-Updater/releases Universal-Updater]. More information can be found in the [https://gbatemp.net/threads/ds-i-3ds-twilight-menu-gui-for-ds-i-games-and-ds-i-menu-replacement.472200/ GBAtemp Thread].

Emulated ~

You have a PSVita/PSTV on firmware version 3.60 to 3.73, you can turn it into a decent emulation device by installing the HENkaku homebrew enabler. If you're on the 3.60 firmware, you can obtain it henkaku, for 3.65-3.73 use Final h-encore. Those on firmware versions prior to 3.60 can update manually by following the instructions here. Furthermore, on versions 3.60 and 3.65 it's possible to use a bootloader patch called Ensō, which loads HENkaku automatically at boot: Ensō for 3.60, Ensō for 3.65. It's possible to downgrade firmware version with a tool called modoru.

Emulators via Adrenaline

Adrenaline is a software that modifies the official PSP Emulator using taiHEN CFW framework to make it run a PSP 6.61 custom firmware. Thanks to the power of taiHEN, Adrenaline can inject custom code into the IPL which allows unsigned code to run at boottime. (You can able to run PlayStation Portable Homebrews and especially Emulators on PSP on PSVita via Adrenaline).
