The Home Button refers to a recessed, circular button for the Wii Remote, the Wii Classic Controller, and the Wii U, or a rectangular button beneath the touch screen on the Nintendo 3DS. Its color depends on the that of the controller.
The Home Button does not have any specific gameplay function; instead, it is used to access the console's Home menu while suspending the currently-running software.
On the Wii, the Home Button opens the HOME Menu, which allows the player to either restart the game, go back to the Wii Menu to play another game, or to modify settings of the Wii Remote; the lattermost property is important in tournaments, as the use of wireless controllers requires players to need to resync and desync controllers to and from the console.
On the Wii U and 3DS, pressing the Home Button again suspends software, but it now sends players to the standard Home Menu of either console; from here, it is possible to use some multitasking applications, as well as manually close the game.
Within Brawl and Smash 4, there are certain cases where the Home menu cannot be accessed, primarily in modes involving Wi-Fi, as well as during loading sequences.
