主菜单界面是N3DS的核心之一。从这里我们可以运行游戏,观看视频,管理朋友列表以及更改设置。开机启动时它是最先出现的,除了进行系统设置修改时,它一直在3DS模式下后台运行。

自动启动Kiosk功能
系统检查游戏的banner来判断游戏能不能自动启动。如果Home Menu先被 NS加载了,它会检 Slot-1 的 Kiosk Demo 卡带。如果找到了卡带,它会加载卡带里的游戏,这样就不在后台运行home menu了(至少处于不运行的状态)。Kiosk demos up to (但不包括) New Super Mario Bros 2, 通过阻止home按钮和kiosk相结合,自动启动进入kiosk运行环境。在这个运行环境中按下电源按钮可以关机,但是home menu无法访问。然而,如果home menu完成初始化,并且载入了kiosk demos,运行环境就和自动启动完全一样了! 除非按下电源键看到那个灰色的关机警告界面。
从New Super Mario Bros 2 demo之后,新的kiosk environment被发现了。3DS可以像之前的DS系列一样从卡带启动。, both 'Home', and 'Power' buttons will cause a shutdown when pressed, and the kiosk demo will automatically quit after a set period of time of inactivity causing a shutdown. If the home menu is fully initialised and then the kiosk demo is loaded, the 'Home' and 'Power' act as they would with a normal retail game (the home menu is accessible). But the game will still quit after a set period of time of inactivity, but will instead quit to the home menu.
Attempting to launch kiosk demos on a 3DS which doesn't have the same region encoding, will result in the 3DS will printing "An Error has Occurred" when attempting to auto-boot a such kiosk demo. And not showing the application on the home menu (the latter also happens with regular retail games).
Auto-boot cartridges, can bypass some of the functions of the Home Menu. Auto Booted software:
- Does show usage history in the activity log
- Bypasses Parental controls
- Bypasses Forced Game Card Updates
- Bypasses Initial 3DS Setup
- The console does not have a friends list presence.
锁区
Home Menu有锁区控制的功能。所有Title的锁区区域都在ICN data中。一共有6个锁区区域:日本,美国,欧洲(包括澳大利亚),中国,台湾,以及韩国。还有一个使Title免受锁区的值,使其能在任何版本的3DS上运行。
锁区效果
每个3DS Title——不管游戏被存储在哪里(NAND/SD卡/游戏卡带),都会被Home Menu检查,非本区域的Title会被Home Menu拒绝显示,而用户不会收到相关提醒。然而,非本区域SD卡的Title,会在检查过程中"闪现"。对于那些不需要从Home Menu界面启动的Title(比如kiosk demos),Home Menu会声明发生了错误并停止启动Title。
