~~The System Menu (DSi Menu)~~ is ~~software shipped pre-installed on every DSi which allows the launching~~ of ~~games from official Nintendo certified game carts, "channels", or DSiWare~~ titles. ~~It runs a GUI similar to~~ the Wii~~'s "Wii Menu".~~

A '''system update''' is a set of titles updated in one burst. Unlike on the Wii, DSi system updates include a new version of the [[Version Data]] bundle (which contains the user-visible version number), preventing updates from not changing the version number if they leave the [[System Menu]] unchanged.

~~The~~ DSi ~~runs in permission modes similar to~~ the ~~Wii, where running in backwards compatibility mode turns off extra hardware and down~~-~~clocks the CPU.~~

~~Using the power button you can soft reset to return to the menu while in game (or in a DSi application~~), ~~similar to~~ the ~~"Home~~ Menu~~" on the Wii.~~

~~Game carts can also be hot-swapped while in the menu~~.

The Nintendo DSi "System Menu" updates are made up of newer components of one or more system titles, as well as a new version of the [[Version Data]] bundle (which contains the user-visible version number).
