The Start/Pause Button (just called the Start Button on the Nintendo 64 controller) refers to the small, grey button in the center of a GameCube controller, or the small, red button in the center of a Nintendo 64 controller. It is used on both consoles to pause most games, and select features in the menus. In SSBM's trophy gallery, the Start/Pause Button is also used to change the background.

In addition, the Wii Remote or Classic Controller's + Button can alternatively be called Start.

Players may repeatedly press the Start/Pause or + button to distract the other players, or mess up their combo timing, but it is considered very rude.
