## Step 0: The How and Why
### Why should I use Make Forwarder?
The simple answer is flexibility - it allows you to run NDS roms, DSiWare, and system titles, all from the same menu without going through Unlaunch. It is also a little faster to load and (in some people's opinions) looks nicer than TWiLight Menu++.
### How does it work?
I'm not the author of the code, so I don't know exactly how it works, but the simple answer is that it uses the same NDS-Bootstrap application that TWiLight Menu++ uses, but registers the apps in the System Menu as DSiWare instead of using TWiLight Menu++ to access them.
Make Forwarder creates DSiWare applications in the DSi home menu that launch preset NDS ROMs using the same NDS-Bootstrap application that TWiLight Menu++ uses.

## Step 6. Final Remarks
- You can add as many rom forwarders as you like (as long as you don't run out of space or use the maximum number of system menu slots).
